Democrats escalate push to impeach Kristi Noem amid DHS backlash

Eight additional Democrats joined Rep. Robin Kelly’s impeachment resolution against Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, bringing the total co-sponsors to 120 as scrutiny of DHS and immigration enforcement intensifies following the killings in Minneapolis and the deployment of federal agents in Minnesota under Operation Metro Surge. Lawmakers urge Noem to resign or be impeached, with some signaling opposition to DHS funding in upcoming appropriations, while Noem defends the department’s policies.
