House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has issued a subpoena to U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, compelling her to testify before the committee on Monday, July 22. The hearing is set to address the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, which occurred at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday. Comer stated that the Secret Service initially committed to Cheatle's attendance, but intervention by Department of Homeland Security officials necessitated the subpoena. Cheatle has confirmed she will not resign from her position despite the incident. The House Oversight Committee will also receive a bipartisan briefing from the Secret Service on Tuesday.
