Listen up, folks, because the Democrats are at it again, throwing their toys out of the pram like a bunch of spoiled brats who just lost recess. They’ve got their sights set on Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, the tough-as-nails leader who’s actually doing her job securing our borders and cracking down on the chaos that the left let fester for years. These clowns in Congress are screaming for her head—either through impeachment or by bullying her into resignation. But let’s cut through the noise and do a real deep dive into their half-baked schemes. Spoiler alert: This is all theater, and it’s doomed to flop harder than a Kamala Harris presidential run.
On HOUSE DEM CAUCUS call, Rep. @RepMoskowitz said that House Dems should call on the removal or resignation of Noem.
“The president for the good of the country has that opportunity. Should he embrace her we will have no other option but to begin impeachment not just what’s…

The Spark: Minneapolis Mayhem and the Blame Game
It all kicked off with a tragic shooting in Minneapolis on January 8, 2026, where ICE agents took down a suspect named Renee Nicole Good during what authorities described as a necessary defense against a violent threat. Instead of backing our law enforcement heroes who put their lives on the line, Democrats seized on this like vultures on roadkill. By January 14, Illinois Rep. Robin Kelly dropped articles of impeachment, charging Noem with everything from lying to Congress to defying court orders and botching basic department functions. They claim she’s unleashed “destruction” on American cities, but let’s be real—this is about protecting criminal elements over law-abiding citizens.
The fallout was swift. Colorado Reps. Brittany Pettersen and Diana DeGette jumped on board, followed by Connecticut’s John Larson and Pennsylvania’s Summer Lee and Chris Deluzio. Even moderate types like Nevada Sen. Jacky Rosen piled on, demanding Noem’s ouster amid the protests that erupted. By January 20, over 70 House Democrats had signed up, and just yesterday, on January 25, that number swelled to more than half of the House Democratic caucus—around 100 or so, depending on how you count the stragglers. They’re tying this to broader gripes: alleged rights violations, a shady $220 million ad contract linked to her team, and blocking congressional oversight. It’s a laundry list designed to sound scary, but it’s mostly smoke.
The Tactics: Impeachment Articles, Funding Blackmail, and Public Shaming
Democrats aren’t just yelling into the void; they’ve got a playbook straight out of the resistance era. First up, those articles of impeachment filed on January 14, 2026, which accuse Noem of violating the Constitution and terrorizing communities. Kelly’s leading the charge, calling Noem a “disgrace to our democracy,” and she’s got backup from firebrands like Illinois Rep. Delia Ramirez, who grilled Noem in a December 11, 2025, hearing with lines like, “Either you’re going to resign, Trump’s going to fire you, or you will be impeached.” Ramirez didn’t mince words, blasting Noem for “lying with impunity” and ignoring checks and balances.
But impeachment isn’t their only weapon. With a government funding deadline looming, Senate Democrats are vowing to tank any DHS budget bill unless Noem’s head rolls. On January 25, during a private caucus call, House Dems lit up with ideas to fly to Minnesota for protests and ramp up the pressure. Rep. Jared Moskowitz flat-out said if Noem doesn’t quit or get canned, they’ll have “no other option but to begin impeachment.” They’re even floating trips to the scene of the shooting to stir the pot, turning tragedy into a photo op. And don’t forget the public shaming—press conferences, social media blasts, and op-eds hammering Noem as a liar who’s failed at her core duties.
This isn’t new; it’s the same stunt they pulled on past Trump officials. But now, with fresh revelations from the Minneapolis incident—including claims of excessive force and community outrage—they’re doubling down. As of January 26, 2026, the push has gained steam, with Missouri Rep. Eric Burlison warning that if Dems flip the House in the November midterms, Noem’s toast. For now, though, it’s all bark.

Will They Succeed? Not a Chance in Hell
Here’s the cold, hard truth: Democrats’ dreams of dumping Noem are about as realistic as Joe Biden remembering his own name. The House is firmly in Republican hands after the 2024 wipeout, and impeachment needs a majority vote to even get off the ground. With GOP control, these articles are dead on arrival—filed, but going nowhere fast. Even if they somehow muster a vote, it’s a sideshow without the numbers. Republicans like Burlison are already laughing it off, calling it a distraction from the real problem: the border mess Democrats created by letting millions pour in unchecked.
Forcing a resignation? Forget it. Noem’s a fighter, backed by President Trump and an America First agenda that’s finally enforcing the laws. She’s defended ICE’s actions as essential to protecting officers from threats, and she’s not budging. The funding threats might cause a shutdown scare, but Republicans aren’t caving to blackmail over securing our nation. Come the midterms in November 2026, if voters remember who’s actually putting America first, Dems might not even gain ground—they could lose more seats.
Bottom line: This is partisan payback, pure and simple. Democrats hate that Noem’s cleaning up their mess, deporting threats, and restoring order. Their plans are loud, but toothless. Noem’s here to stay, and America’s safer for it. If the left wants to waste time on witch hunts instead of real solutions, let ’em. We’ll be over here winning.
