Rep. Kelly announces plans to impeach Secretary Kristi Noem

January 7, 2026
Press Release

WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (IL-02) announced plans to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem following the fatal shooting by an ICE officer in Minneapolis.

“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. 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,” said Rep. Kelly. “From Chicago to Charlotte to Los Angeles to Minneapolis, Secretary Noem 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. I told my constituents and Chicagoans that I would fight against Secretary Noem’s agenda. This is me fighting back.”

Rep. Kelly will file three articles of impeachment against Secretary Noem:

1: Obstruction of Congress: Secretary Noem willfully obstructed Congressional oversight and withheld Congressionally appropriated funds in violation of constitutional oath and federal law.
2: Violation of Public Trust: Secretary Noem compromised public safety, violated due process of American citizens, and directed unconstitutional actions.
3: Self-Dealing: Secretary Noem abused her office for personal benefit and steered federal dollars to associates.

Her pals in the House and Senate will lionize her. But, we can go on the Record, at least, and maybe drag her through The Truth.
It’s certainly better than a “strongly worded letter”.
And start the clock on a possible future Majority carrying out investigations.

He's been wanting to can her and he may take this opportunity to make her take the fall. And the shuffle on the Bridge of the Titanic begins.

While I totally agree, the same could be said about every single member of that so-called administration. They should all be impeached.
