Rep. Robin Kelly (D-Ill.) has led nearly 70 House Democrats in filing articles of impeachment against DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, charging her with obstruction of Congress, violation of public trust — citing warrantless arrests, use of tear gas and due‑process abuses tied to the fatal Minneapolis ICE shooting of Renee Nicole Good — and self‑dealing over alleged steering of a federal contract and a $200 million ICE recruitment/PR campaign. Democrats say the move is an oversight and political escalation amid broader controversy (including reporting that arrests in Chicago’s Operation Midway Blitz did not include murder or rape charges), but removal is unlikely given a GOP House majority and the two‑thirds Senate conviction requirement, and DHS/ICE have staged Minnesota briefings to defend the Metro Surge.
