Khanna Reminds Cheatle the Secret Service Director Resigned After Reagan Assassination Attempt

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) dropped a bombshell on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle:

“Director Cheatle, would you agree that this is the most serious security lapse since President Reagan was shot in 1981?” Khanna asked.”Yes sir, I would,” Cheatle responded.”Well, do you know what Stuart Knight did–he was in charge, at the time, of the Secret Service–do you know what he did?” Khanna asked.”He remained on duty,” Cheatle said.”He resigned. He resigned. And Stuart Knight was not a Democratic appointee or a Republican appointee. I’m not questioning your judgement, I just don’t think this is partisan. If you have an assassination attempt on a president or a former president or a candidate, you need to resign.””That’s what Stuart Knight did. He was a Republican appointee, and he took responsibility…You cannot go leading a security agency when there’s an assassination attempt on a presidential candidate,” Khanna finished.
