NextImg:‘That’s Bulls***’: Nancy Mace Gives Cheatle No Quarter In Brutal Line Of Questions

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-NC) gave Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle no quarter during her Monday appearance on Capitol Hill, opening her line of questions by asking whether Cheatle would like to use her allotted time to draft a resignation letter.

Cheatle, on Capitol Hill to field questions about the series of apparent security failures that culminated in the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, rebuffed Mace’s offer.

WATCH:

“The American people are watching, and they’re wondering if there are any questions you can answer honestly today. So, Director Cheatle, I have a series of questions — very specific questions — and I want very specific answers … Both sides of the aisle today have asked for your resignation. Would you like to use my five minutes to draft your resignation letter, yes or no?” Mace asked to open her time.

“No thank you,” Cheatle replied.

Mace continued: “Was this a colossal failure, yes or no?”

“It was a failure,” Cheatle said.

“Yes or no,” Mace repeated. “Was it a colossal failure is the question, yes or no?”

“I have admitted, this is a terrible —” Cheatle tried again.

“This is a yes or no series of questions,” Mace pushed back. “Was this a colossal failure, yes or no?”

“Yes,” was Cheatle’s response.

“Was this tragedy preventable?” Mace asked. “Yes or no?”

“Yes,” Cheatle said again.

Mace went on to ask whether the Secret Service had been “transparent” with the committee, and Cheatle said that it had been.

“Would you say the fact that we had to issue a subpoena to get you to show up today was being transparent? Yes or no?”

Cheatle attempted to filibuster, but Mace stopped her.

“That is not transparent by the way,” Mace noted, adding that Cheatle had previously claimed the Secret Service was not political and then asking, “Would you say leaking your opening statement to Punchbowl News, POLITICO and Washington Post several hours before you sent it to this committee as being political, yes or no?”

Cheatle demurred: “I have no idea how my statement got out.”

“That’s bulls***,” Mace shot back, clearly not buying Cheatle’s answer.
