You want to talk about abuse of power? How about your abuse of the trust the People put in you when you told them on the campaign trail about your entire career in intelligence and that gave you an upper hand in discerning authoritarian threats? You went in front of the public last year and told the military to not follow unlawful orders. Does America need to make one to remind you to uphold the Constitution? To remind you your sworn duty is to protect the People?

What about your abuse of power by not actually using all your power to stop this right now? How about your power to remove Kristi Noem and ensure she’s criminally charged for the deaths, at bare minimum, of American citizens (yes, that is two blatant fucking murders because of this useless Congress) who used their freedom of speech to speak truth to power?

This moment in history is not a time for jokes. But I do know one. It’s called this 119th Congress.

****

You started this video with “Even if you voted for him”. Really?

Fact Check: You voted to confirm Kristi Noem.

Where was all that intelligence work then? Her murdering dogs and goats and bragging about her righteousness in doing so was clearly not enough for you to pick up on the fact she is literally a murderer and a sadist. Should your constituents look into why you would be willing to overlook those character traits as you confirmed her nomination?

Because by aligning with her through confirmation, you’ve shown your cards. History will remember. It already does.

So, voting no on some funding bill doesn’t cut it here.

****

Clearly the Senate needs help remembering why they were elected into office. You asked the People to empower you to protect the Constitution, the laws of this nation, and to honor American values.

What values are you protecting in doing nothing over the deaths of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Jeffrey Pretti? For the thousands of people of color being brutalized, terrorized, raped, disappeared, and killed in DHS detention centers? Did you know the State of Texas has almost 30 active DHS facilities? Aren’t human rights and integrity your political platform?

If only there was something that could be done. Oh wait! The House did bring articles of impeachment but cowardly sadist Jim Jordan, mega-MAGA bootlicker of House Judiciary, will just let that sit.

Another Fact Check: The Senate can hold public hearings. As in the Homeland Security Committee (one of yours, no?) can put into public record everything the Minnesota BCA, the families of Good and Pretti, and whatever the DOJ whistleblowers have, correct?

One More Fact Check: What about a Senate joint resolution to call on the House to fulfill its duty to advance the articles of impeachment against Noem? Or what about a discharge petition?

****

So, again, I ask you. What are you going to do about correcting the DEADLY CHOICE YOU MADE WHEN YOU VOTED TO CONFIRM KRISTI NOEM? Where are the Senate subpoenas for the flimsy records Noem has on the “investigations” into these deaths? Where the fuck is the Senate’s backbone?

Last year, y’all literally wouldn’t even file a censure resolution against her when it was undeniable the brutality and illegality of their tactics? I mean a feckless piece of paper is what Dems do best. Y’all love your strongly worded letters, do you not?

Yes, yes you do. And what is the result of that letter? The Senate says wait until 12 February to call in Todd Lyons, Rodney Scott, and Joseph Edlow to testify? So, give them 2 more weeks to rampage and murder? Where is the humanity? What chickenshit move is this?

And Noem gets to wait until 3 March to show up and lie her way to false accountability? What in the fuck is going on? NOEM and her entire department MUST GO NOW.

****

Renee Nicole Good was murdered by Noem’s Nazis 22 days ago from today. Alex Pretti was murdered 5 days ago. But DHS gets weeks if not more than a month to publicly account for their actions and be held criminally liable?

I’m not in Congress but this citizen knows the Senate has powers.

Yet Another Fact Check: the Senate can force a Special Committee Meeting and override Rand Paul to demand a hearing NOW. Fucking hell, it should have been demanded many, many months ago.

Seriously, what the fuck are you people waiting on? Where is your moral compass? In some PAC bank account I’m sure.

****

ONCE MORE: What are you going to do to ensure she is impeached, convicted, and immediately charged in Minnesota for aiding and abetting and accessory after the fact in the murders of American citizens?

ENOUGH OF THE PERFORMATIVE POLITICS AND THE VIRTUE SIGNALING VIA SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS.

END THESE ABUSES AND MURDERS NOW.
