Well I just read where Cheatle said they failed. She is not resigning and is not getting fired. Won't be anything done about all of this. Lets move on and forget it.

She is terrible, deflects most questions or won't answer them... I don't like her attitude either, she even looks like a biotch...

Nothing will be done to someone who is an incompetent, colossal failure because the current administration doesn’t believe in accountability. Forget about it? Not a chance.

Well, pshoot, Frank! You seem to keep forgetting that Standards are only to be applied to The Loyal Opposition…. You go around expecting minimal standards of accountability and decency from everyone in office and next thing you know you can’t vote for ANYBODY and maintain a clear conscience….

Nancy Mace is quickly becoming a local favorite here. She's considered a smart version of Lauren Boebert , but just as much a conservative firebrand.

The director has already been told that her job is safe and not to answer with any substance. They know they screwed up royally and the standard political response is to lie, obfuscate, delay, etc. She just said it would take 60 days to determine what happened. To quote Nancy Mace, “that’s bullshit”. If it was a corporation, heads would roll, but being government they probably will move people around and call it good. That’s the government we voted for and the government we have !

Why wouldn't Biden want this woman fired? His wife and family are being protected under the secret service and obviously things need to change. When Reagan was shot the Director took full responsibility and resigned that day I believe.

"Leave it to fdp to defend the lawlessness of the left."....not defending a thing...just making a point of comparison.
There's a long list of folks here LUNG$SHOT that need to change their handle to LDS or DDS as well......in fact those are the folks that usually start these types of threads.

""Leave it to fdp to defend the lawlessness of the left."....not defending a thing...just making a point of comparison."
True statement; had closer attention been paid to the cited response that should have been painfully obvious.
""the current administration doesn’t believe in accountability."....nor did the previous one..."
In this case "nor" serves as a coordinating conjunction joining two negative states.

Yup these Demorats will make excuses and excuses and more excuses .... You don't need to be too bright too see that there was some serious bumbling with the secret service .... FDP....do you really think ineptness at this level ..(head of secret service). We should just move on?

"FDP....do you really think ineptness at this level ..(head of secret service). We should just move on?"...never said a thing to that affect at all......... Do you know what specifically her personal ineptness may have been?

Her personal ineptness was painfully obvious during the “grilling” in front of the house. When I was in charge and had to answer hard questions every now and then. I already had the answers because I got those answers myself. I did not wait on “them” or “they” to provide answers because I knew or suspected that I was going to be asked those questions. She acts like this is not important, she acts like she’s above it. She can’t be on the ground personally handling every move, we know that, but she could have the grace to get the hell out of Dodge.

If Trump is elected, she will be in a position to “spend more time with her family.” He will fire her Day 1.
If I were her I would be working on completing my retirement paperwork.
She is an embarrassment and an insult to the American public. This is what hard earned tax dollars fund.

These are sad days in American when one can learn more about an attempted assassination from YouTube as opposed to a congressional hearing testimony.
How much taxpayer money was wasted today on this hearing? Guess this is why Biden said paying taxes was just part of being a good citizen.

Nothing was ever going to happen. If and when Trump is elected, she will get canned day 1. If he isn't elected, she'll keep her job. Simple as that.
Same as countless other political positions.

I want to know if our sniper was told to stand down. Killed him with one shot when the shooting started. That means the sniper had him in his crosshairs before the shooting started, just like Afghanistan.

Sorry I started this thread. I meant to say will 40 pounds kill a deer? Damn Autocorrect. Guys we are in big trouble. If I had a hearing like that in front of the board of dental examiners I would lose my license. This hearing is a waste of money. They will not tell the American people anything.

Fellas, I’m not taking up for her but, take 5 and think. I’m pretty sure the last thing anyone needs is her blabbing off what the investigation has turned up so far.
Over sight committee or not, it’d be ignorant for her to answer the questions we want to know the answers too at this point. Not to mention incompetent.
Be patient. This isn’t the 60’s or the 80’s. The truth will come out. But, right now it’s time to stay quiet about what you know or think you might know if you are on the investigation side of things.

The hearing is a waste of money because we won’t learn anything. I disagree about waiting to learn what happened. Why do we have to wait to learn what Happened? Learn it now before things can be covered up. What will change in 60 days?

All that hearing did was get the American people fired up about what happened. That makes the Dems look bad.. and we were not going to learn anything anyway. Now things will quiet down and we still won’t learn anything.
