US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem Faces Impeachment Following ICE Shooting
USA – The US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is facing a possible impeachment motion by Rep. Robin Kelly, following the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) shooting in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Wednesday.
“Secretary Kristi Noem is an incompetent leader, a disgrace to our democracy, and I am impeaching her for obstruction of justice, violation of public trust, and self-dealing,” Kelly said in a statement.
“Secretary Noem wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area, and now, her rogue ICE agents have unleashed that same destruction in Minneapolis, fatally shooting Renee Nicole Good,” she said.
Good, 37, was shot by an ICE agent after blocking a road that law enforcement was traveling on during a federal immigration operation.
Kelly chastised Noem, saying that the secretary is violating the Constitution while “ruining – and ending – lives, and separating families.”
“It’s one thing to be incompetent and dangerous, but it’s impeachable to break the rule of law,” said Kelly. “I told my constituents and Chicagoans that I would fight against Secretary Noem’s agenda. This is me fighting back.”
Kelly said she plans to file three articles of impeachment against Noem for obstruction of Congress, violation of public trust and self-dealing.
