Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) attempted to scold Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem during a Thursday hearing, demanding that she resign — and Noem made it clear that she would not be doing any such thing.

Thanedar, who filed articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump in April and against War Secretary Pete Hegseth just days prior to Thursday’s hearing, accused Noem of lying — though he was not clear about what — and asked whether she’d resign in the event that she was not fired from her current post.

“I am sick of your lies. The American people are sick of these lies. American people demand truth,” Thanedar claimed. A poster behind him read, in all capital letters, “KRISTI NOEM LIES TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.”

“America is very happy that, finally, they have a president in the White House that gets up every day to keep them safe,” Noem replied.

“Madam Secretary, your incompetence and your inability to truthfully carry out your duties of Secretary of Homeland Security,” Thanedar said then, once again leveling his claims without presenting evidence to support them. “If you’re not fired, will you resign?”

“Sir, I will consider your asking me to resign as an endorsement of my work,” Noem replied, adding as an afterthought, “Thank you very much.”

Thanedar’s attempt to impeach Trump — accusing the president of abuse of power, defiance of the Constitution, and tyranny — was short-lived as leaders within his own party pressured him to hold off after he initially demanded an immediate vote.

His latest attempt, aimed instead at Hegseth, references the recent strikes on narco-terrorists and accuses the War Secretary of “using the United States military to extrajudicially assassinate people without evidence of any crime.” A second article of impeachment asserts that Hegseth is guilty of “reckless and unlawful mishandling of classified information.”
