Greene asked Cheatle why the suspected gunman was not identified as a threat sooner, and why the Secret Service did not seem to catch on to warnings from rallygoers that a man was on the roof.
Cheatle said she was not certain how information in the crowd was relayed to law enforcement personnel. She added that there was "absolutely not" a plot to kill Trump, a response to Greene's reiteration of a conspiracy theory about the shooting.
Greene called Cheatle a failure multiple times in her questioning, echoing bipartisan frustration over the lack of answers from Cheatle in Monday's hearing.
"We're waiting for your letter of resignation," Greene said.
