Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) called for Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's resignation during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday, criticizing her handling of FEMA disaster relief, harsh immigration policies that resulted in two American deaths, and broader leadership failures. Tillis directly challenged Noem's book "No Going Back," citing her account of killing a 14-month-old hunting dog she deemed dangerous and worthless. He argued a farmer should know better than to kill an untrained puppy. Tillis also referenced Noem killing a goat for behaving badly, drawing parallels between her impulsive animal decisions and her crisis response failures in Minneapolis, North Carolina, and the Southeast. He demanded answers on Operation Charlotte's Web within two weeks, threatening to stall nominees if Noem continues stonewalling.
