Members of New Mexico’s U.S. House delegation have signed on to cosponsor articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after a Minnesota woman was killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer last week.
“I know a lot of people are feeling very frightened out there, but we want you to know that we are conducting oversight; we are taking action,” said Rep. Melanie Stansbury, D-N.M.
Videos of Renee Good’s final interaction with a federal immigration officer before he shot and killed her have flooded social media feeds and fueled a national debate over whether the shooting was justified. The fatal shooting sparked protests, including one in Albuquerque Friday in which two people were arrested. It also boosted calls to impeach Noem.
Rep. Robin Kelly, D-Ill., planned to file articles of impeachment against the DHS secretary Wednesday.
Impeachment seems unlikely to progress, given Democrats are the minority in the House, but Kelly has secured more than 50 Democratic cosponsors, according to Axios reporting. That includes New Mexico’s three House representatives, the Journal confirmed.
“For the last year, Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security, under the leadership of Kristi Noem, has terrorized communities across the country with a violent, authoritarian, and chaotic attack on our communities,” Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández, D-N.M., said in a statement.
Her sentiments were echoed by Rep. Gabe Vasquez, D-N.M. “Under (Noem)’s direction, we have seen masked ICE agents unleash increasingly violent tactics across the country that make our communities less safe, especially for people of color,” Vasquez said in a statement.
The articles allege a pattern of willful misconduct by Noem that undermines congressional authority, constitutional rights, federal law and public trust.

Of course you are. Your incitement created the circumstances that led to a woman being fatally shot while running down a federal law enforcement agent. Now you’re going to protect us. Barf!
they dont have the votes to remove anyone. So this is basically just posturing for the cameras and a waste of everyones time

Wait till spring and summer. The commies are going to go full commie then and it’s going to get very ugly.
And if they take the House in Nov, it’s going to get much worse.
it doesn’t matter if they take the house, they will NEVER have the vote to actually remove anyone from office, only impeach
No different from 1966 when rioter met enforcers.
Reminds me of an old Al Capp Li’l Abner cartoon strip from the mid 1960s when the Students Wildly Indignant about Nearly Everything (S.W.I.N.E) attacked the Enforcer’s brass knuckles, leading with their teeth. I still get a thrill remembering the huge sparks that flew, from brass and teeth kissing each other!
The Representatives from New Mexico are just relaying the frustrations of their cartel masters who’ve lost revenue from Noem’s crackdown on human and drug trafficking.
If they don’t at least make a big squawk over it they risk a one-way ride in a car trunk...or worse.
What part of “They dont have the votes” do these brain dead idiots NOT understand..its ALL FOR SHOW
NM: sleazy crime-infested backwater awash in petroleum revenues run by dyke lesbians and their cucks in bolo-ties, where corruption is just the way things are done in these parts.
Funny. I just read here that it was Tampon Timmy himself who signed a law in MN that an officer can shoot if you are trying to run him down. Agent acted within the law, and the left can pound sand.
Talk about a waste of time!
The only reason the Demonicrats want to impeach the head of the DHS is simply because she’s gorgeous.
“I know a lot of people are feeling very frightened out there”
On the contrary. I feel safe knowing the chomos, rapists, murderers and violent illegal aliens the democrat party is protecting are being rounded up and deported.
Good’s effort to run officer Ross down was enough to cause internal bleeding. If Good’s car hadn’t slipped in the icy pavement, she would have killed Ross.
“On the contrary. I feel safe knowing the chomos, rapists, murderers and violent illegal aliens the democrat party is protecting are being rounded up and deported.”
Yep, that’s what we all voted for!
