This hearing was not about holding anyone accountable. It was about satisfying the <modsnip> need among members of the public to see someone - anyone - severely punished when bad things happen.
Completely agree that the public has an <modsnip> unquenchable need to find someone tangible to blame.
However, I disagree that this was the sole or even major purpose of the hearing. IMO, seeking answers was truly the goal, as a first step toward comprehending how this happened.
Putting aside for a moment all things Trump—if I were Corey’s family, I would be desperately trying to fathom how my husband/father/fireman went to a rally and ended up with his head blown off.
Answers have to come from somewhere, and answers supposedly come when someone is asked the right questions.
IMO the SS director was evasive even about the basics. Not everything asked of her was top-secret insider information that would reveal means and methods to a future assassin. She was stalling. Maybe she didn’t have all the answers herself, but she had some.
If Cheatle really didn’t have any answers then IMO she did have to step down.
