Top five moments from Secret Service director’s hours-long grilling after Trump assassination attempt

Brooke Singman / FOX News

U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle testified for hours on Capitol Hill Monday, facing a grilling from lawmakers on both sides of the aisle over the agency’s lapse in security that enabled the assassination attempt on former President Trump. 

Cheatle testified before the House Oversight Committee, led by Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., after he subpoenaed her to appear.

Cheatle testified before the House Oversight Committee Monday, just over a week after a would-be assassin Thomas Crooks attempted to take the life of Trump at his rally in Butler, Pa. on July 13. 

Trump, during his rally, ever-so-slightly turned his head—narrowly missing the bullet shot by 20-year-old suspect Crooks’ AR-15-style rifle by just a quarter of an inch. The bullet hit him, instead, in his upper right ear.

The bullet killed firefighter, father and husband Corey Comperatore as he protected his family from the shots, and severely injured two others. Read more and see video here.

There Was Reportedly a 'Palace Coup' Raging Within the Biden White House

If these reports are true, the final weeks of the Biden White House in campaign mode were something like the final hours of Davy Crockett and his stand at the Alamo. The June 27 debate proved to be the election-killing event we all thought it was from both liberal and conservative sides of the aisle. Donald Trump demolished the president, sparking the rebellion that eventually led to Biden dropping out of the race on July 21. 

There was no party, donor, or media support when the walls finally closed on the president during the Republican convention. Once the dam broke, there was no coming back, but other forces were reportedly at play. For one, top Democrats reportedly threatened to remove Biden from office via the 25^th Amendment if he didn’t stand aside (via NY Post): 

Operatives at the very highest levels of the Democratic Party threatened Joe Biden with forcibly removing him from office unless he stepped down, sources told The Post.
