Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem faced intense scrutiny during a Capitol Hill hearing, following a controversial immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis that resulted in the deaths of two American citizens. Senator Thom Tillis, a Republican, led the criticism, demanding Noems resignation and threatening to block Senate nominations. Families of the victims were present, and Noem defended her initial assessment. Other Republicans questioned a large ad contract and slow disaster aid. Democrats also pressed for an apology, which Noem did not provide. The hearing took place amid a partial department shutdown and concerns about new risks from Iran airstrikes and potential election monitoring.
