An impeachment effort against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem will “move forward,” members of Congress are promising, after the effort was announced last week in the wake of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer fatally shooting a United States citizen in Minneapolis.
“We’re gonna move forward to impeach Kristi Noem,” Representative Angie Craig, a Minnesota Democrat, vowed during an interview with MS Now on Sunday.
In a press release, Democratic Representative Robin Kelly‘s office said that the 3 articles of impeachment would allege Noem “abused her office for personal benefit and steered federal dollars to associates,” “willfully obstructed Congressional oversight and withheld Congressionally appropriated funds in violation of her constitutional oath and federal law” and “compromised public safety, violated due process of American citizens, and directed unconstitutional actions.”
Just needs majority of house, right?
Need a supermajority in senate so symbolic either way but with house majority could maybe force her to testify or sommething.
Not purely symbolic. This will still drag her down and waste her time and resources at a bare minimum. This counts in the “everything” when people say Dems should be doing everything they can to impede the administration.
I agree they should fight loudly, on this and issues like drugs, healthcare, companies gouging us. They will not win until they do.
Puppykiller is one of the worst most fake people in the country. Expose her to the low info communities.
I could see a scenario where it forces her to resign. Trump “allowed” the senate and house to pass the Epstein bill (even though they are not following the law of it). I think because there was so much pressure for it to pass.
If similar pressure campaigns get brought up around this, maybe Trump forces her to resign. Especially if it seems like it could impact midterms.
That is a good point. Start digging for scandals, hitting the ones we have already. Could win over gop one vote at a time.
Was that her that held up the emergency warning in texas hill country floods? The feds drop the ball, and they send no help for days, blocking help until she personally signed off or something.
Executing a citizen under false pretense and slandering them as terrorist to set a precedent of fed agents executing without cause with impunity would rub plenty of conservatives the wrong way if dems knew how to fight to be clear.
The ones getting traction could be the ones to challenge r house seats rather than republican light dems. That is where they lose.
Omg, so many things…
If all else fails, publicity in how GOP is complicit in all things happening right now will hopefully give great midterm results and 2027 can begin with investigations and information being released.
