An impeachment effort against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem will “move forward,” members of Congress are promising, after the effort was announced last week in the wake of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer fatally shooting a United States citizen in Minneapolis.

“We’re gonna move forward to impeach Kristi Noem,” Representative Angie Craig, a Minnesota Democrat, vowed during an interview with MS Now on Sunday.

In a press release, Democratic Representative Robin Kelly‘s office said that the 3 articles of impeachment would allege Noem “abused her office for personal benefit and steered federal dollars to associates,” “willfully obstructed Congressional oversight and withheld Congressionally appropriated funds in violation of her constitutional oath and federal law” and “compromised public safety, violated due process of American citizens, and directed unconstitutional actions.”

      This thread is confusing because ChonkyOwlbear and TrickDacy are getting a lot of upvotes upfront, but they are both children with fingers in their ears shouting “nanana i dont hear you, democrats perfect, both sides narrative is bullshit”.

      They are ignoring the reality if what arrow74 said (we should primary these Dems from within the party and even failing that, they are preferable to republican candidates) and even after being proven wrong, continued to treat arrow74 like a liar who wanted to muddy waters on behalf of the republicans.

      It was just a crazy ignorant boomer moment for both of them. But I needed this comment further up so that more people could just see

      The context at the end of the thread without having to go all the way through.
