‘You Are Full of Sh*t Today!’ Nancy Mace Berates Secret Service Director in Unhinged Rant

 

Rep. Nancy Mace is getting the media coverage she appears to be so thirsty for after berating Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle in a House Oversight Committee hearing focused on the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. 

Cheatle is facing intense scrutiny for what she called the “most significant operational failure in decades.”

“The Secret Service’s solemn mission is to protect our nation’s leaders. On July 13th, we failed. As the Director of the United States Secret Service, I take full responsibility for any security lapse,” Cheatle told the committee in her opening comments.

Rep. Mace did not appear to accept Cheatle’s ownership of the grave mistakes from that day, and instead grilled Cheatle in a level we rarely see. At one point, the South Carolina Republican member of Congress grew so frustrated with Cheatle that she flatly said to her, “You are so full of SHIT today!” and later called her dishonest and lying.

MACE: Okay. Is the Secret Service fully cooperating with our committee? Yes. Okay. You say you’re fully cooperating with this committee? On July 15th, this committee sent you a list of demands of information that we wanted. Has the Secret Service provided this committee a complete list of all law enforcement personnel that were there that day? Have you done that? Have you provided a list to the oversight Committee? Yes or no? I’ll have to get back to you on that. That is a no. Have you provided all audio and video recordings in your possession to this committee, as we asked on July 15th? Yes or no?

CHEATLE: I would have to get back to you.

MACE: That is a no. You’re full of shit today. You’re just being completely dishonest.

(UNKNOWN VOICE): Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman.

CHEATLE: I point to...

MACE: Come on…

(UNKNOWN VOICE): We have to maintain decorum in this committee. No matter how upset we get.

MACE: You provide any and all memos to this committee that we asked you on July 15th? Have you provided on memorandums within the Secret Service?

CHEATLE: I would have to get back to you on that is a no.

MACE: You’re being dishonest or lying like I just you’re being dishonest here with this committee. These are important questions that the American people want answers to. And you’re just you’re just dodging and and talking around in generalities. And we had to subpoena you to be here. And you won’t even answer the questions we have asked you repeatedly to answer our questions. This isn’t hard. These are not hard questions.
