Fetterman calls on Trump to fire Noem: ‘Americans have died’

On Jan 27, 2026, Sen. John Fetterman posted on X tagging President Donald Trump and urged him to fire Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, declaring, `I make a direct appeal to immediately fire @Sec_Noem.`
The killings of Alex Pretti, 37, and Renee Good, 37, in Minneapolis, Minnesota this month preceded Fetterman's call amid video footage showing Pretti pushed before federal immigration agents arrived.
Fetterman said, `'As a very pro-immigration Democrat and Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Border Management, I believe our nation deserves a secured border and that we should deport all criminal migrants,'` and stated he will not vote for a government shutdown.
The White House has sought to ease the conflict as 120 House Democrats co-sponsor an impeachment resolution against Noem, and Greg Bovino is expected to leave Minneapolis with Tom Homan taking over.
Amid a nationwide enforcement surge this month, Sen. John Fetterman urged the Minneapolis enforcement operation to stand down and highlighted his prior calls to avoid abolishing ICE.
