Kristi Noem is gone. Good, but it’s the bare minimum. Two American citizens killed by federal agents in Minneapolis. Court orders violated. FEMA gutted. Firing her doesn’t fix all of that, but it’s a start.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.
My statement on Secretary Noem's firing:
Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.
But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.
NOEM: I would disagree with the judge
CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?
NOEM: A what?
CROCKETT: A law degree
NOEM: No I do no-
CROCKETT: Okay
Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."
Kristi Noem must go now.
It's long past time she steps down, and it doesn't excuse her from justice or accountability.
She believes she’s above the law while taking away fathers from children with cancer and mothers being shot in the face by her agents.
We demand answers.
Kristi Noem's incompetence is only rivaled by her dishonesty.
WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?
NOEM: Yes
WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?
NOEM: No.
Heartless

We’re at the People’s State of the Union to tell the truth about what Trump is doing to working people.
Shameful
Disgusting and not representative of our US. He should be terminated from his job.
Where is Savannahs mom?
Just the worst!
A betrayal of our country…shame and disgust. No respect.
NOT OK
WATCH — @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “Trump saying ‘I won affordability’ will be in all the Democrats’ ads… he says more Americans are working now than ever? There are 1 million less than last year, after Biden left.”
(H/T @acyn.bsky.social )
People are cherry-picking Jasmine Crockett’s Israel votes to fit a narrative. Look at her record and the pattern is obvious.
She voted against Israel-only standalone bills, and for broader packages that combined Israel aid with humanitarian funding and wider government spending.

James Talarico: Jesus gave us two commandments: love God and love neighbor.
There was no exception to that second commandment regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status, or religious affiliation.
CBS pulling @jamestalarico.bsky.social’s interview from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is alarming and nothing short of censorship. Full breakdown on my Substack page (link below).

Wow.
Government’s plan to import LNG for electricity generation would cost households and businesses up to $8.3bn
Same volume of electricity could be delivered through a $2.5b investment in rooftop solar panels and hot water heat pumps

Moskowitz: By the president’s own metrics, what accomplishments does Noem have?
• She’s holding up 200 miles of border wall.
• She’s deported fewer people than Obama.
• She’s not helping any of these red-state governors with their disasters.
Why hasn’t he fired her?
