🚨 DHS Showdown: Noem Grilled as Funding Lapse Nears 3 Weeks

@DHSgov @Sec_Noem faced intense questioning before the Senate Judiciary Committee as the department’s funding lapse approaches the three-week mark.

Democrats say they won’t reopen DHS without changes to Trump-era immigration enforcement. Meanwhile, @SenThomTillis criticized @ICEgov tactics and arrest quotas, accusing leadership of prioritizing “numbers over quality.”

Noem pushed back, saying DHS is actively working to identify potential Iranian sleeper cells and reevaluating immigration programs to prevent future attacks.

On Capitol Hill, the House is preparing another DHS funding vote – with Republicans daring Democrats to vote against defending the homeland.

At the same time, lawmakers are receiving classified briefings on Iran as Congress prepares to vote on resolutions that could limit President Trump’s war powers.

High stakes. Major decisions ahead.
