John Fetterman Calls on Trump to Fire Kristi Noem

Outlets agree that Sen. John Fetterman urged President Donald Trump to fire Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem after a fatal shooting in Minneapolis. Center outlets place his call alongside questions about DHS and ICE priorities, criticism of Noem, and the White House response. Right-leaning outlets also report the call and Trump’s support for Noem; one article directly rejects Fetterman’s position and presents blame directed at Democrats and demonstrators.
