Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-Ill.) is pressing the House Judiciary Committee to begin impeachment hearings into Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Axios has learned.

Why it matters: House Democrats are increasingly turning to impeachment as their go-to cudgel against not only President Trump himself, but many of his Cabinet officials.

Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) filed articles of impeachment against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. this week on a litany of charges mostly related to his efforts to roll back public health measures.

Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.) filed articles of impeachment against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last week over Signalgate and a reported double-tap strike on an alleged Venezuelan drug boat in the Caribbean.

Driving the news: In a letter to Judiciary Committee chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), Ramirez demanded a "complete investigation into Secretary Noem's unlawful and potentially impeachable actions."

The letter accuses Noem of "unethical behavior," pointing to reports that a firm tied to the DHS secretary allegedly received DHS contract money and that the Coast Guard spent $172 million to buy her two private jets.

It also alleges she made "false and misleading" statements to Congress about DHS and ICE operations and accuses her of undermining the separation of powers by ignoring court orders.

1. A Noem impeachment is way the hell overdue.

Same goes for the rest of trump's trash-heap appointments. Far and away the worst cabinet in this nation's history.

2. The ones I'm waiting for are Pamela and Kash.

Will be fun watching those two self-important dipshits grandstand their way right into a fucking holding cell.

Dems need to start putting on a Show. Every day, twice a day for the next 10 months. I don't care if it's the deputy deputy assistant press secretary for.... national parks. Drag them down there and ask them questions we already know the answers to, and watch them figure out in real time they may as well be being deposed. The lawyers in congress need to start acting like it.
Put on a show and MAKE the american people BE EMBARRASSED by these fools.
