Prominent Democrats are demanding the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem following her handling of the border patrol shooting death of Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti.
For the second time in a month, Noem has immediately defended federal officers for shooting and killing a protester without any investigation or concrete evidence. Pretti was shot multiple times by federal agents Saturday, and Renee Good was shot four times and killed by officer Jonathan Ross on Jan. 7. In both cases, Noem immediately claimed the officers were acting in self-defense.
Axios reported Sunday that a House Democratic caucus phone call on Sunday “lit up” with calls to impeach Noem.
Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL), told colleagues that if Noem insists on remaining in her position, “we will have no other option but to begin impeachment,” anonymous sources told Axios.
