President Joe Biden misgendered his own head of the Secret Service, claiming he has “heard from him” during an interview with NBC News’s Lester Holt. Kimberly Cheatle, the Secret Service director appointed in 2022, is a woman.
Biden’s confusing reference to Cheatle as a “him” came after Holt’s question about accountability for the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump.
“Is it acceptable that you have still not heard, at least publicly, from the Secret Service director?” Holt asked in a Monday interview.
In response, Biden claimed, “Oh, I’ve heard from him.”
