The possible contribution of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) to U.S. Secret Service (USSS) failures during the assassination attempt against Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, was raised during now-former Director Kim Cheatle’s grilling by the House Oversight Committee on Monday.
Some Republican lawmakers questioned why female agents too small to cover Trump, who is well over six feet tall, were assigned to him. Cheatle and several Democratic lawmakers doggedly insisted men and women in the USSS meet the “same standards.”
“One of your goals in the [USSS] strategic plan is to champion Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and accessibility—you’ve accomplished the ‘accessibility’ part,” said Republican Rep. Michael Cloud, in sarcastic reference to gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks having easy access to President Trump when he shot him.
