Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), the ranking member of the Homeland Security Committee, called on Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to resign over what he described as her department's "lawless" immigration enforcement operations. "They are reckless, creating chaos in our communities, terrorizing adults and children alike and undermining our moral authority as a nation of liberty and rule of law," he said in his opening statement during a hearing with leaders of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs (ICE) and Border Protection (CBP).

Rep.

"They are reckless, creating chaos in our communities, terrorizing adults and children alike and undermining our moral authority as a nation of liberty and rule of law," he said in his opening statement during a hearing with leaders of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs (ICE) and Border Protection (CBP). Rep. Thompson criticized the operations and Secretary Noem's statements following the killings of American citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis. "Secretary Noem's Department of Homeland Security has the blood of American citizens on its hand. But she takes no responsibility for anything," he said. "Her inexcusable behavior should come as no surprise. She's always been more concerned with photo ops and wardrobe changes than following the law and fulfilling the mission of her department." #kristinoem #dhs #ice #cbp #cspan ♬ original sound - C-SPAN
