Kristi Noem Says "Everything I've Done Has Been Directed By Trump & Stephen Miller" - That Sounds Familiar...
Where have we heard this before??
Backlash continues to surround the regime, following the latest death at the hands of ICE. 37 year old ICU nurse Alex Pretti was gunned down this past weekend & the video of his death has gone viral around every corner of the internet.
Professional sports games were canceled, workers staged walk outs around the country, kids have started protests at schools, even Fox News found themselves calling out the lies of Trump White House. The White House initially attempted to spin the story, saying Pretti drew a gun in the presence of ICE agents, but video evidence has shown that that was in fact a lie.
The regime has killed 9 people in the last year & now even Republican Senators have begun to turn on ICE & DHS. With according to NBC News, two Republican senators, Thom Tillis and Lisa Murkowski, have called for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem to resign.
This comes along side 75% of House Democrats, who are now also calling for Kristi Noem’s resignation. To which I must ask - who they hell are they few dozen Democrats who are refusing to join the call?
Today, Democratic House Leader Hakeem Jeffries posted this statement regarding Kristi Noem
I have made my feelings about Hakeem Jeffries well known over the last year, and I want to be clear - this isn’t enough, but I will give credit for promising an impeachment.
Let’s be clear here, because this conversation isn’t straight forward.
Impeachment will not result in her removal from office. You would need 20 Republicans in the Senate for conviction & I doubt that would ever happen
With that being said, even a symbolic impeachment is important in my opinion. We cannot normalize what’s happening under this regime. History needs to see that attempts were made to remove these creatures from office
Impeachment is not enough. Because that still tells the public that ICE isn’t too blame per se, they just have bad “leadership”. However, this goes beyond leadership. The entity of ICE is too dangerous to exist. Any government agency that can side step the constitution like they have, should not exist at. Beyond impeachment, we need ICE to be abolished. After that, yes, let’s talk about people being prosecuted for violating the constitutional rights of Americans
This was reported by AXIOS earlier today - Noem Says ‘Everything I’ve Done’ Has Been Directed by Trump and Stephen Miller
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is chalking up her actions in office to the direction of President Donald Trump and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller.
Noem, Miller, and others in the administration have faced backlash over their description of the circumstances surrounding federal agents shooting and killing 37-year-old Alex Pretti in Minneapolis on Saturday.
Noem and others claimed Pretti wanted to “massacre” agents before the confrontation. Administration officials have pointed to the fact that Pretti was armed as proof of his malicious intentions, but Second Amendment activists have consistently pushed back against this.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called Miller one of the president’s closest allies amid rumors of a rift between Noem and Miller.
“Everything I’ve done, I’ve done at the direction of the president and Stephen,” Noem reportedly said to someone who relayed her comment to Axios.
The report from Axios suggests there was a great amount of confusion surrounding Pretti’s death in the White House. Officials told the outlet that Border Patrol officers told the White House that Pretti brandished a gun before being shot, but this claim is contradicted by video evidence. Some White House officials reportedly took issue with the official statement going out, as they were not briefed on all of the details surrounding the shooting before it was published.
“Others within the White House attempted to clean up the DHS statement prior to it being sent, but it had already been disseminated,” a source familiar with the situation told Axios.
It’s obvious from this report that the regime is truly feeling the heat from this latest death. Finger pointing has begun & Noem looks to be the latest scapegoat to protect Trump from criticism.
But let’s be clear…
Nothing happens in the federal government without Trump’s approval.
The operation tactics of ICE are exactly what Trump wants them to be. He wants nothing more than to pump chaos into our streets & increase the levels of authoritarianism we experience everyday.
Whether Kristi Noem resigns or is impeached, it will not alter how ICE operates in our neighborhoods.
So I close by saying this - let’s not get caught up with whether or not Noem is impeached. While I believe accountability (even symbolically) is a good thing, it is ultimately not the most important place to put our energy.
We must continue to call for the abolition of ICE, because regardless of who runs this organization, it’s tactics will remain as barbaric as they have been.
Abolish ICE
Prosecute ICE
Imprison ICE
Until next time

Do you think impeaching Kristi Noem is the right move, or do you think it's a waste of time? Please let me know your thoughts in the comments below
Impeaching Noem does nothing in my eyes....she needs to be fired from that position, along with S Miller.....and the guy who got caught taking that $50K bribe. People who elected tRump have blood on their hands as well.
