December 2025: TRUMP PRESIDENCY Democrat Delia Ramirez Initiates Impeachment Push Against DHS Secretary Kristi Noem

Democrat Delia Ramirez Initiates Impeachment Push Against DHS Secretary Kristi Noem
"On Thursday, December 11, Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL) sent a letter to the House Judiciary Committee requesting an investigation into Secretary Kristi Noem, calling her actions at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) “potentially impeachable.” Ramirez charges that Noem has repeatedly broken the law, misused taxpayer funds, and misled both Congress and the public. In her letter to the

Judiciary Committee, she further states that Noem has “disregarded the rule of law” and engaged in conduct that “violates her oath of office.”
The letter cites multiple allegations, including a $200 million taxpayer-funded DHS public relations campaign, which reportedly involved vendors with personal ties to Noem and senior officials at the agency. Ramirez also points to Noem’s authorization of a partisan video that was displayed in airports during the government shutdown beginning October 1, calling it a violation of the Hatch Act. In addition, Ramirez criticizes the purchase of two Gulfstream jets for $172 million under Noem’s leadership.
Ramirez also asserts that Noem has made numerous misleading or false public statements, including downplaying the detention of U.S. citizens by ICE and misrepresenting the outcome of deportation efforts involving Kilmar Abrego Garcia. She contends DHS under Noem has used excessive force, including the deployment of chemical weapons in violation of court orders. In one cited example, Ramirez says DHS agents used such tactics in Chicago despite a federal judge’s ruling barring their use.
While impeachment efforts against cabinet members have been rare in modern history, they have become more frequent under the current administration. 

During a House Homeland Security Committee hearing, Ramirez addressed Noem directly: “Your options are limited. Either you’re going to resign, Trump’s going to fire you, or you will be impeached.”
Ramirez has long been a vocal critic of the Trump administration’s immigration policies and DHS leadership. In prior statements, she has referred to ICE as a “terrorist organization,” accused DHS of “facilitating the disappearance of our neighbors,” and declared herself “a proud Guatemalan before I’m an American.”
