Support among House Democrats for impeaching Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is skyrocketing, nearly doubling in the last week to 100 co-sponsors.

That’s an unprecedented level of support for an impeachment effort during President Trump’s second term, with lawmakers who have bristled at the topic in the past now warming to the idea.

Kelly is urging Republicans to get on board with her efforts — even as no GOP lawmaker has come close to expressing support for Noem’s impeachment.

“As Secretary Noem continues to lie, obstruct Congress, and violate people’s civil rights, the support for her impeachment only grows,” she said.

    Dems growing a spine is a story worth telling.

    Secretary Kristi Noem is skyrocketing, nearly doubling in the last week to 100 co-sponsors.

    That’s still only half the Dem caucus on a motion that should be a litmus test for Rules Based Intentional Order liberalism.

    I’d say the most damning indictment of impeachment is that it’s not along party lines. 113 House Dems aren’t sponsoring a bill to remove the most corrupt bureaucrat to hold the DHS office.

    Dems should be talking about DHS like Republicans talk about the IRS. Not whatever this is.
