President Biden Announces the New Head of Secret Service, Kimberly Cheatle
President Joe Biden has appointed Kimberly Cheatle to be the next director of the Secret Service.
Biden on Wednesday called Cheatle “a distinguished law enforcement professional with exceptional leadership skills,” saying in a statement that she “was easily the best choice to lead the agency at a critical moment for the Secret Service.” In this new role, she will become the second woman to lead the Secret Service, after former President Barack Obama appointed Julia Pierson as the first in 2013.
