I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Our health care system is collapsing. Housing is unaffordable. 60% of people are living paycheck to paycheck.
Instead of trying to "run" Venezuela, Trump might try to do a better job running the United States.

Can't help but notice Maduro is being held at the same infamous Brooklyn jail where Juan Orlando Hernández, sentenced to 45 years in prison after a large-scale cocaine trafficking conviction, was just pardoned and released by President Trump last month:
