Rep. Nancy Mace from South Carolina has filed a privileged resolution to impeach Kimberly Cheatle, the Director of the U.S. Secret Service. The motion, which was introduced on July 23, 2024, will require the House to schedule a vote within the next 48 hours. This marks a historic event as the House has never voted on the impeachment of an inferior civil officer before. The motion is in response to Cheatle's handling of an alleged assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.
