Beau of The Fifth Column

Obviously, Democrats are lining up to try to push her out.

But what should be a worrying sign for Trump is that Republicans are warming to the idea of showing her the door too.

For most, it's damage control.

If they can change leadership, they can pretend the issue is solved.

But some have actual issues with her running the department.

Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska didn't say she'd support impeachment, but she said, I would not support her again, and I think it probably is time for her to step down.

Senator Tom Tillis of North Carolina didn't mince words and said, She should be out of a job.

Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, who is a Democrat, who leans to the Trumpian side of things at times, made it pretty clear that he wasn't going to provide dissent within the Democratic Party when he described Noem as, quote, inept and absolutely incompetent.

Some Democrats don't want her gone, but it's based in the fear that her replacement would be even worse.

Senator Gary Peters of Michigan indicated the real goal should be to curtail the agency, rather than give it a new leader.

Quote, My guess is that we're going to see a lot of posturing about her impeachment, and maybe even an attempt to do so.

But right now, the vote count math says the votes aren't there.

It would take a lot more Republicans to cross over.

So, it'll probably be used as leverage to try to reform DHS, unless the backlash from the pro-2A Republicans continues to grow.

We'll see how things continue to play out this week.

Anyway, it's just a thought.

Y'all have a good day.

Well, howdy there, Internet people.

Even with recent developments, it's a surprising move from Senate Democrats who tend to avoid taking hardline stances.

What's even more surprising is that the push to block it is being supported by Democratic leadership.
