President Donald Trump said Tuesday Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem won’t resign amid calls from top Democrats in Congress for her to be ousted “immediately” or face impeachment proceedings and criticism from some Republicans over her response to Alex Pretti’s shooting.
Trump said “no” when asked by a reporter if Noem would step down, adding, “I think she’s doing a very good job.”
He declined to say if he believes Pretti’s killing by federal immigration agents in Minneapolis on Saturday was justified, telling reporters, “Well you know we’re doing a big investigation. I want to see the investigation. I’m going to be watching over it. I want a very honorable and honest investigation. I have to see it myself.”
