Episode Details

On the most recent episode of The Drill Down, Schweizer and co-host Eric Eggers agree that Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle should be fired. The attempt on Trump’s life this past weekend in Butler County, Pennsylvania exposed the failure of Trump’s Secret Service detail to properly secure the venue where Trump spoke. Five minutes into his speech, shots were fired from the roof of a building just 150 yards from the dais, and Trump’s life was spared likely because he had turned his head to point at a screen just as a bullet was fired. The Secret Service has come under universal criticism for not guarding that building. “Heads have got to roll,” Schweizer said.
