Sen. Marsha Blackburn @MarshaBlackburn
I just got off a briefing with the Secret Service and FBI. I am appalled to learn that the Secret Service knew about a threat prior to President Trump walking on stage.
I have no confidence in the leadership of Director Cheatle and believe it is in the best interest of our nation if she steps down from her position.

Source familiar with Secret Service briefing w/Senators tells me a timeline shared with them reveals SS was aware of a threat about 10 minutes before TRUMP walked on stage and still let him on stage.

The FBI and Secret Service need to quit holding secret calls and start answering questions under oath. In public.
