Kristi Noem Defends ICE's Deadly Conduct During Second Day of Hearings
Kristi Noem faces scrutiny over ICE enforcement tactics including warrantless arrests and mass deportations during her second day of testimony before House Judiciary Democrats.
- On March 03, 2026, Noem testified that she defended DHS and ICE tactics during her second day before the House Judiciary Committee in Washington, D.C.
- Amid oversight demands, lawmakers prioritized legislation and pressed Noem on ICE arrests, warrantless operations, and her comments, with House Democrats and Republicans responding accordingly.
- During questioning, Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., pressed Noem on whether she still considered the two deceased individuals domestic terrorists, citing concerns about investigation access, and said, 'Rather than work with state and local authorities to solve these homicides, you barred Minnesota's investigators from the crime scenes.'
- Noem highlighted Angel families and did not answer whether enforcement officers have been disciplined, amid oversight concerns raised by lawmakers during Wednesday's hearing.
- Looking beyond Capitol Hill, the timing coincides with a partial government shutdown affecting DHS and warnings of a heightened threat environment, including strikes in Iran.
