Wisconsin GOP Senator Ron Johnson recently expressed his lack of confidence in Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, citing concerns about security preparation ahead of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. Johnson made baseless claims suggesting that diversity and inclusion initiatives within the agency may have contributed to the security shortcomings.
During an interview with Washington Post Live, Johnson stated that he had 'absolutely not' confidence in Cheatle and questioned whether the agency prioritized diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) over protecting President Trump. Despite Johnson's assertions, former President Trump commended the officers on his security detail during the incident.
