Dem Rep. Delia Ramirez: ‘The Greatest Threat to the Homeland Right Now Is the Department of Homeland Security’

TRANSCRIPT:

RAMIREZ: "I’m Congresswoman Delia Ramirez, I represent Illinois' 3rd Congressional District, representing many parts of the city of Chicago Northwest part. Let me be very blunt, I'm gonna just say it: The greatest threat to the homeland is called the Department of Homeland Security. We have seen the danger in infusing resources into DHS' abuse of power. Now I'm gonna also say something else here. DHS is not rogue, because when it was built, it was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity.  Congress needs to send a message, and it's why we are here today, that we do not consent, nor will we enable DHS and ICE’s lawlessness. Yeah, Noem has to resign. I’ve been telling her this since April. There needs to be oversight. And the masks must come off!"
