Democrat files articles of impeachment against Noem

Rep. Robin Kelly (D-Ill.) on Wednesday introduced articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, citing the secretary's handling of the Trump administration's aggressive immigration crackdown. At a press conference on Wednesday, Kelly outlined three impeachment articles against the secretary, accusing Noem of obstruction of Congress, "violation of public trust" and "self-dealing." "Secretary Noem has brought her reign of terror to the Chicagoland area, L.A., New Orleans, Charlotte, Durham, and communities north to south to east to west," Kelly said at the press conference. "She needs to be held accountable for her actions." The first impeachment article alleges Noem denied Kelly and other members of Congress "oversight of ICE detention facilities," the congresswoman said at her presser.
