3. SOUNDBITE (English) Kimberly Cheatle , U.S. Secret Service Director:

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep.Pat Fallon, (R) Texas:

“It is a miracle President Trump wasn’t killed. Corey Compertore’s life is over because that damn shooter made it on the roof and it wasn’t the roof that was dangerous. It was a nut job on top of the roof. You know what else is dangerous? I believe your horrifying ineptitude and your lack of skilled leadership is a disgrace. Your obfuscating today is shameful, and you should be fired immediately and go back to guarding Doritos. Mr. Chairman, I yield back.”
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Kimberly Cheatle, U.S. Secret Service Director: ‘
++SHOT CHANGES FROM SOURCE++
“What I can tell you is that when the individual was identified by the counter sniper. They took one shot and neutralized that individual.”
6.SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Byron Donalds, (R ) Florida:
“But that was after the shooter already took a shot. Is that correct?”
CHEATLE: “That is correct.”
REP. DONALDS: “So what you’re saying now is that the Secret Service did not see the shooter on the roof until after the shooter took a shot?"
CHEATLE: “I do not have all of those details at this time.”
7. Cutaway
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Tim Burchett, (R) Tennessee:
“Ms. Cheatle, the shooter was set up on the roof of the AGR International building, as we know. Was the roof identified as a potential vulnerability days before the rally?”
9. SOUNDBITE (English) Kimberly Cheatle, U.S. Secret Service Director:
“To my knowledge, yes. It was.”
REP. BURCHETT: “Were agents or officers inside the building? If so, what floor? Where they on?”
CHEATLE: “We had local police officers inside the building.”
REP. BURCHETT: “The roof looks like it’s a tin roof. How did no one inside that building hear someone moving on top of a metal roof?”
CHEATLE: “I don’t have the details of all of the interviews that have been conducted yet.”
10. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, (R) Georgia:
“While President Trump has been allowed to take the stage, people see Crooks laying on his stomach in a sniper position on the roof and they’re yelling, he has a gun! And they are trying to alert law enforcement and Secret Service. Why was Crooks not shot by a sniper? By the snipers? Why was he allowed to be there?”
11. SOUNDBITE (English) Kimberly Cheatle , U.S. Secret Service Director:
“As soon as the individual was identified as a threat.”
12. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, (R) Georgia:
“No no no no no no. What do you consider to be a threat? A man with a gun laying in a sniper position. A man that had a backpack. A man that had a bicycle. A man that had a rangefinder. At what point is he determined a threat?”
13. SOUNDBITE (English) Kimberly Cheatle , U.S. Secret Service Director:
“An individual with a backpack is not a threat. An individual with a rangefinder is not a threat.”
