Kristi Noem HECKLED, SHAMED By Democrats Over Trump’s ICE Raids in US; BIG CLASH With Democrats

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem came under intense fire during a heated House Homeland Security Committee hearing as Democrats confronted her over the administration’s role in allowing suspected National Guard shooter Rahmanullah Lakanwal into the country. Noem repeatedly tried to shift blame onto President Joe Biden, calling the attack a failure of the previous administration — but Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson pushed back hard, pointing out that Lakanwal’s asylum was approved in April under Noem’s own leadership at DHS. The tense exchange escalated as Thompson accused Noem of avoiding accountability while she repeatedly interrupted him.

00:00Madam Secretary, you and the gentleman from NCTC reference the unfortunate accident that occurred with the National Guardsman being killed.

00:14You think that was an unfortunate accident?

00:16I mean, wait, wait, look, I'll get it straight.

00:20Then you can.

00:20He shot our National Guardsman in the head.

00:22Look, Mr. Chairman, will you direct the witness to allow me to ask my question?

00:30It was an unfortunate situation, but you blamed it solely on Joe Biden.

00:36I want you to know who approved the asylum application for this same person.

00:45Mr. Thompson, this individual that came into the country.

00:48No, I want to know who approved it.

00:50Congressman Thompson, I want you to understand when this individual came into the country, he came under an evacuation of Afghanistan

00:58under Operation Allies Welcome, was thoroughly vetted by the Biden administration at that point in time,

01:04allowed into our country, and then was never followed up.

01:08I want to remind everybody in Congress, we follow the law,

01:11and every asylum is supposed to have a check-in every single year,

01:15and the Biden administration failed to do that.

01:18They vetted this individual, allowed them into our country, and did not do that.

01:22Witness will allow the gentleman to ask his question.

01:24Yes or no, who approved the asylum claim?

01:27The application on the asylum was thoroughly filled out by information that was gathered by the Biden administration.

01:33So the Biden administration approved the asylum?

01:36The asylum application was put into place under the rules established by the Biden administration.

01:42Reclaiming my time.

01:43I don't want to charge our perjury charges against you,

01:48but I'm of the opinion that the Trump administration, DHS, your DHS, approved the asylum application.

01:58The asylum application moved forward under all of the information and vetting processes

02:02that were put in place under the Biden administration, which is when vetting happened,

02:07and that's what President Trump has changed.

02:08Under President Trump's administration, when-

02:13It's obvious you don't want to answer the question.

02:14Mr. Kent, do you want to shout at it?

02:17The individual was vetted to serve as a soldier in Afghanistan,

02:21and that vetting standard was used by the Biden administration as a ruse to bring him here.

02:27Had we followed the standard operating procedures for special immigrant visas,

02:31that individual and none of the allies' welcome people would have come to America.

02:35That's on Joe Biden.

02:36Gentlemen, gentlemen, time has expired.

02:39That was the answer.

02:40Point of order, Mr. Chairman, that was a murder that took place in D.C.

02:43It was not an unfortunate incident, and those comments are effing disrespectful.

02:51Who is it?

02:52I expect better from the-

02:53It's not a valid point of order.

02:56I recognize the gentleman from Texas, the former chairman, Mr. McCall, for five minutes.
