WASHINGTON, Jan. 28 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump said at the White House on Tuesday that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem will not resign despite Democrats threatening to launch impeachment proceedings against her.
“No,” he told reporters when asked whether K. Noem would leave her post.
In recent days, the Secretary of Homeland Security has faced mounting pressure after security forces shot and killed two US citizens in Minneapolis. Her comments that the victims committed an "act of domestic terrorism," despite the lack of evidence in the released video footage, sparked backlash.
On January 7, a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer shot and killed 37-year-old American Renee Goode in Minneapolis during a law enforcement operation. On Saturday, Border Patrol officers fatally shot 37-year-old U.S. citizen Alex Pretty in the city.
The shooting sparked sharp criticism from lawmakers in both parties. Democrats called for Noem's dismissal or impeachment, while some Republicans proposed holding congressional hearings on federal immigration enforcement practices.
