Secret Service not renewing security clearance for agency director who quit after Trump shooting

The Secret Service has decided not to renew the top-level security clearance for former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, who resigned after the Pennsylvania assassination attempt against President Trump, according to a RealClearPolitics report.

“Director [Sean] Curran has been modernizing the intelligence apparatus within the agency,” a spokesperson said, according to The New York Post. “During that process, he has determined that not all former directors will have their clearances renewed.”

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), who leads the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, had reportedly suggested the agency not renew her clearance.
