Florida’s Governor continues to sharpen his criticisms of security failings that led to the assassination attempt of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
“The central feature of our nation’s entrenched bureaucratic class is never being held accountable for failures,” posted Ron DeSantis to X. “The greatest security failure for the agency this century and nobody will be fired or resign?”
The Governor’s comments responded to reporting that Secret Service head Kimberly Cheatle would not consider stepping down despite evident failures to protect the former President, though she does claim, a la Harry Truman, that “the buck stops here.”
“It was unacceptable,” Cheatle told ABC News on Monday. “And it’s something that shouldn’t happen again.”
