The fatal shooting in Minnesota over the weekend has stirred up two extreme i-words in Congress: impeachment and insurrection.
In response to an immigration enforcement agent shooting and killing a citizen, Alex Pretti, in Minneapolis on Saturday, some House Democrats are renewing a push to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
Meanwhile, Republicans are denying that city-wide protests over the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown are “peaceful,” with a handful arguing they amount to an insurrection that the president could deploy federal troops to subdue.
