Director Kimberly Cheatle made the comments Monday as she was grilled by lawmakers over the July 13 assassination attempt of the Republican presidential nominee.
Cheatle acknowledges the agency was told about a suspicious person “between two and five times” before the assassination attempt of the former president.
Cheatle told lawmakers during a congressional hearing, “On July 13, we failed.”
Cheatle was berated for hours by Republicans and Democrats, repeatedly angering lawmakers by evading questions about the investigation into the shooting.

Between 2 and 5 times...wtf. That means five. SS was alerted five times. And just put Trump right there on the mark...

2 to 5 warnings from civilians prior to the deed ....... 🤣🤣😂😂😅😅😄😄😄 ..... only one warning should be enough, and still, they let the guy send 7 or 8 candies in the direction of DT...!!!! The stench is overwhelming....!!!

they let him get off like 8 shots then waited and took two shots. The close sniper missed. He came off his scope. The further sniper not pictured took the kill shot. So at least two sniper shots not one as she said.

total sociopath or psychopath

She’s trying to protect herself from the people that set this all up

Why do these people even bother to show up to explain!

Her face shows us she knew this was coming after the attempt but they missed so now shes obligated to take the blame that way we can just say yeah it was her fault nobody else's let's move on. Hell no idc if she resigned this whole thing needs to be investigated and I hope Republicans and even Democrats can band together and uncover this whole mess.
