US House Democratic leaders threaten Noem with impeachment
House Democrats say Secretary Noem mischaracterized victims and demand accountability for fatal shootings linked to DHS enforcement, with over two-thirds backing impeachment efforts.
- House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and top deputies warned Tuesday that `Kristi Noem should be fired immediately, or we will commence impeachment proceedings in the House of Representatives.`
- Under Noem's leadership this month, immigration agents swarmed Minneapolis, provoking protests and killing two Americans, while Rep. Robin Kelly filed impeachment articles on Jan. 14 after Renée Nicole Good's killing.
- Official records show at least 111 representatives backing H.Res.996, which accuses Noem of obstruction, public-trust violations and unlawfully requiring seven days' notice for ICE detention centre visits.
- House Democratic leaders threaten to impeach Noem, as Democrats vow to block Homeland Security funding ahead of Friday and Trump defends her, signaling political fallout.
- A House impeachment needs a simple majority, meaning at least 3 House Republicans would have to join Democrats, while Senate conviction requires 67 votes, making removal unlikely under current control.
