The fatal ICE shooting in Minnesota "has positioned more people to say enough is enough," Congresswoman Delia Ramirez said.

An impeachment effort against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem will “move forward,” members of Congress are promising, after the effort was announced last week in the wake of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer fatally shooting a United States citizen in Minneapolis.

“We’re gonna move forward to impeach Kristi Noem,” Representative Angie Craig, a Minnesota Democrat, vowed during an interview with MS Now on Sunday.

In a press release, Democratic Representative Robin Kelly‘s office said that the 3 articles of impeachment would allege Noem “abused her office for personal benefit and steered federal dollars to associates,” “willfully obstructed Congressional oversight and withheld Congressionally appropriated funds in violation of her constitutional oath and federal law” and “compromised public safety, violated due process of American citizens, and directed unconstitutional actions.”

    So most of us remember Noem’s main claim to fame being that she executed her new puppy, after… not training it properly, and being annoyed by it.

    Well I’d like to remind folks she was behind this ad campaign:

    Nope, not a joke, not a photoshop, not AI hallucination… this was her baby, and it was real.

    Finally… I present to you, Kristi Karen Noem:

    Yeah thats from ~7 years ago, when she still had a vaguely human face.

    If memory serves… she is still, herself, personally banned from setting foot on any Indian/Native Tribal land in the entire state of South Dakota, basically for consistently being a racist c*nt, consistently disrespecting any and all tribal attempts to keep their land clean from industrial waste.

    EDIT:

    (I’ve been told by a local from Rapid City that she also executed a goat in a similar violent outburst as with her new puppy… but I have not been able to verify this myself, with a citable print source.

    Local told me that its not uncommon to basically just rent a or some goats as basically au naturale lawnmowers, which does make sense to me…

    … but she apparently got annoyed by the bleating, and one day just shot someone else’s goat, that she was renting, to be a lawnmower on her ranch.

    … Yeah.)
