Nancy Mace, a Republican from California, is forcing the House of Representatives to vote on impeaching Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle this week after she refused to resign when lawmakers asked her to.

The South Carolina Republican presented the resolution to the House Monday night and invoked the resolution’s privilege status. This means that the chamber must vote within two days.

Ms. Mace read the impeachment motion on the floor and said that Ms. Cheatle had “failed” to protect Donald J. Trump at the former President’s July 13, Pennsylvania rally.

Ms. Mace stated that Ms. Cheatle had “failed to fulfill her duties as a public servant, including upholding the oath and faithfully performing her duties,”

Kamala’s Flophouse I’m Republican Josh Loyd. As someone who grew up in farm country, your word is your bond. And Kamala just laid out a pile of manure by claiming she’s for the border wall! But unless we combat the media’s peddling of Kamala’s lies, she’s going to lead the Democrats to victory this November. Help me expose Kamala’s lies by kicking in your support today. 1776 Coalition Sponsored

The House does have to vote on the resolution of Ms. Cheatle, but it doesn’t necessarily have be an up-or-down vote. The resolution can be tabled by any member of the House or referred to a committee. This is what appears to have happened in this case.

Mace was one of several members of House Oversight Committee that called for Ms. Cheatle’s resignation as she spoke before the panel Monday. She began her questioning with a request to Ms. Cheatle to use the five minutes she was allotted to speak to write her resignation. Ms. Cheatle refused.

Ms. Mace demanded that Ms. Cheatle respond to a series yes/no questions, such as whether the Secret Service’s July 13 attempt at an assassination was a colossal fail. Ms. Cheatle initially tried to be ambiguous before finally giving a “yes”.

Ms. Cheatle answered “yes” to the question of whether she was transparent in her dealings with the committee.

We had to summon you. “That’s not transparency,” said Ms. Mace.

Ms. Cheatle refused to answer the majority of questions asked by members during the hearing. This was met with bipartisan condemnation, and there were calls for her resignation.

Ms. Mace went a step farther, telling her, “You are full of s—, today.” You are being totally dishonest.”
