国土安全部部长克里斯蒂·诺姆周二与参议院司法委员会成员就特朗普政府的移民执法打击行动展开激烈辩论,这是在该机构近几个月因强硬的移民执法行动以及1月份蕾妮·古德和亚历克斯·普雷蒂的致命枪击事件受到审查后,备受期待的听证会。

该部门对明尼苏达州骚乱的处理,使诺姆和移民局官员在近几周直接成为民主党人的众矢之的,并促使民主党人和两名参议院共和党人呼吁诺姆辞职。

这场长达数小时的听证会正值参议院在通过9月全面资助国土安全部的计划上陷入僵局。该议院的民主党人此前列出了10项要求,称移民官员必须满足这些要求,他们才会同意通过短期资助措施。

参议院民主党党鞭迪克·德宾(D-伊利诺伊州)等人批评诺姆,尽管距离明尼苏达州两次移民局枪击事件已过去数周,诺姆仍要求他们全额资助国土安全部。德宾此前表示:”她期望我们在此期间对她创纪录的预算进行橡皮图章式的批准。”

共和党人和诺姆在周二的听证会上警告称,部分停摆对国土安全部庞大机构下的众多联邦部门和机构造成了毁灭性影响,包括特勤局、运输安全管理局、联邦紧急事务管理局和美国海岸警卫队等。

以下是周二听证会上的重大时刻。

“鲁莽且不必要”:诺姆抨击参议院民主党人导致国土安全部停摆

诺姆在周二的听证会上将矛头对准参议院民主党人,指责他们在众议院通过两党全年度国土安全部拨款法案后,仍拒绝为该部门提供资金,将该部门作为人质。

“尽管众议院通过了一项两党、两院制的全年度国土安全部拨款法案,但参议院民主党人选择不资助该部门,将其作为人质,”诺姆周二表示,提到了由于长期停摆可能受到阻碍的关键国家安全工作,包括但不限于边境安全、移民执法、航空安全、灾难应对、网络安全和关键基础设施保护等问题。

她还提到,整个机构的停摆对国土安全部内约22个联邦部门和机构的员工造成了影响。

“超过10万名敬业的国土安全部员工再次被要求无薪工作,这是五个月内第三次,而在此期间我们建立了历史上最安全的边境,并从我国驱逐了近300万非法外国人,”她说。

“破坏负责这些成果的部门是不可原谅的。”

德宾与诺姆就犯罪统计数据和驱逐问题展开交锋

周二早些时候,德宾迫使诺姆解释他所说的国土安全部未能遵守联邦法院命令的情况,这些命令试图阻止或暂停特朗普政府的大规模移民执法行动和驱逐。

“主席先生,我们确保遵守适用于我们部门的法律,包括我们拘留谁以及将谁驱逐回本国,”诺姆告诉德宾。

德宾接着引用了特朗普第一任期的一项统计数据,发现移民局逮捕的移民中”85%没有暴力犯罪记录”。

“主席先生,当你谈论暴力犯罪时,你说的是那些无关紧要、你没有统计的犯罪,这些犯罪每天都在影响美国家庭,”诺姆回应道。”你没有统计酒后驾车。你没有统计挪用公款。你没有统计盗窃。你也没有统计针对个人的其他犯罪和毒品走私等犯罪。

“如果你统计这些非法外国人在这个国家犯下的罪行,今天被拘留的人中,超过65%至70%的人有犯罪记录,”诺姆说。”除了非法进入这个国家的罪行之外。”

诺姆:国土安全部无计划在选举日部署移民局官员到投票站

在一个值得注意的时刻,特拉华州民主党参议员克里斯·库恩斯(Sen. Chris Coons)向诺姆施压,询问国土安全部是否计划在选举日部署移民局官员到投票站,呼应了前特朗普顾问史蒂夫·班农最近支持的观点。

当被问及是否会排除在即将到来的11月中期选举期间部署移民局或海关与边境保护局特工到投票站时,诺姆回应称”没有计划让移民局官员出现在我们的投票地点”。

“我很高兴听到这个回答,”库恩斯回应道。”但你会排除这种可能性吗?你会说这不会发生吗?”

作为回应,诺姆回击道:”你是否计划让非法外国人在我们的选举中投票?”

这一时刻在社交媒体上获得了保守派评论员的广泛赞扬。

诺姆称拜登政府”资助”儿童被贩运到美国

诺姆还向格拉斯利通报了卫生与公众服务部无人陪伴儿童(UC)项目的现状,根据其办公室分享的信息,在拜登政府领导下,该项目将超过11,000名移民儿童安置在未经审查的赞助人家庭中,这些赞助人并非其父母或法定监护人。格拉斯利办公室此前多次就该项目向国土安全部提出监督请求,称其将儿童安置在危险或未经审查的赞助人家庭中,并限制与执法部门分享信息。

格拉斯利和特朗普领导的国土安全部指控拜登政府对需要适当监督和照顾的儿童”视而不见”,并指出背景调查失败、某些情况下缺乏文件记录以及宽松的审查程序,这些都导致该项目中的移民儿童被”丢失”或被释放给危险的赞助人。

国土安全部监察长办公室去年发布了一份关于该项目的报告,诺姆在周二的证词中似乎提到了这份报告。

诺姆周二告诉议员们,有450,000名作为”无人陪伴外国儿童”进入美国的儿童”被拜登政府丢失且未被追踪”。

“我们已经找到了约145,000名儿童,这是通过我们国土安全调查局的调查工作完成的,”诺姆说。

“有一件事一直很有挑战性,那就是在拜登政府领导下,政府向卫生与公众服务部的赞助人支付费用以安置这些儿童和赞助人。很多时候,我们发现这些赞助人本身就在贩卖这些儿童,”诺姆继续说道。

“因此,在那个政府领导下,我们不仅有儿童通过该项目进入这个国家,政府还在向明知在贩卖和虐待这些儿童的个人支付费用,”诺姆说。”这种情况已经停止。我们已经找到了这些儿童,并在有机会时将他们送回家人身边,或者送回会照顾他们的亲人身边。”

Noem and Senate Dems sparred for hours Tuesday in an action-packed DHS oversight hearing; here’s what you missed

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem sparred with members of the Senate Judiciary Committee Tuesday over the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement crackdown, a long-awaited hearing after the agency has come under scrutiny in recent months for its hard-line immigration enforcement effort and the fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in January.

The department’s handling of the Minnesota unrest has placed Noem and ICE officers squarely in Democrats’ crosshairs in recent weeks and has prompted Democrats — and two Senate Republicans — to call for Noem to resign.

The hours-long hearing comes as the Senate remains deadlocked on a plan to fully fund DHS through September. Democrats in the chamber previously outlined a list of 10 demands they said immigration officers must meet before they would agree to pass the short-term funding measures.

Senate Democratic Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., and others have criticized Noem for asking them to fully fund DHS despite the weeks that passed between the two ICE shootings in Minnesota and Noem’s testimony. She “expects us to rubber stamp her record-breaking budget in the meantime,” Durbin said previously.

Republicans and Noem used the hearing Tuesday to warn of the knockdown effects the partial shutdown has had on the myriad federal departments and agencies housed under DHS’s sprawling umbrella, including the Secret Service, Transportation Security Administration, FEMA and the U.S. Coast Guard, among others.

Here are the biggest moments from Tuesday’s hearing.

‘Reckless’ and ‘unnecessary’: Noem blasts Senate Dems for DHS shutdown

Noem focused her ire during Tuesday’s hearing on Senate Democrats, whom she blamed for failing to keep DHS funded through September even after the House passed a bipartisan, full-year funding bill.

“Despite the House passing a bipartisan, bicameral, full-year DHS funding bill, it is Senate Democrats who have chosen not to fund the department and have held this department hostage,” Noem said Tuesday, mentioning critical national security efforts that could be hampered as the result of a protracted shutdown, including, but not limited to, issues of border security, immigration enforcement, aviation security, disaster response, cybersecurity and the protection of critical infrastructure.

She also cited the effect the agency-wide shutdown has on DHS employees in about 22 federal departments and agencies within DHS.

“More than 100,000 dedicated DHS employees are once again being asked to work without pay for the third time in just five months at a time when we produced the most secure border in history and removed nearly 3 million illegal aliens from our country,” she said.

“Disrupting the department responsible for those gains is indefensible.”

Durbin, Noem spar over criminal statistics, removals

Earlier Tuesday, Durbin pressed Noem to explain what he said was DHS’s lack of compliance with federal court orders that have sought to block or pause some of the Trump administration’s sweeping immigration enforcement efforts and removals.

“Sir, we ensure that we follow the law that applies to our department, and who we detain and who we deport back to their home countries,” Noem told Durbin.

Durbin followed up by referencing a statistic from Trump’s first term that found 85% of the migrants ICE arrested”had no violent criminal record.”

“Sir, when you talk about violent crimes, what you’re saying is the crimes that don’t matter, that you aren’t counting, are the ones that affect American families every single day,” Noem responded. “You’re not counting DUIs. You’re not counting embezzlement. You’re not counting theft. And you’re not counting the other crimes against people and drug trafficking and proliferating that.

“_ If you were counting crimes that these individual illegal aliens in this country have committed, it would be well over 65% to 70% of the individuals that are detained today have those crimes on their record,” Noem said. “Besides the crime of being in this country illegally.”

Noem: DHS has no plans to deploy ICE officers to polling sites on Election Day

In one notable moment, Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., pressed Noem on whether DHS planned to deploy ICE officers to polling sites on Election Day, echoing a view recently endorsed by former Trump advisor Steve Bannon.

Asked whether she would rule out deploying ICE or CBP agents to polling places during the upcoming November midterm elections, Noem responded that there are “no plans to have ICE officers at our polling locations.”

“I’m glad to hear that,” Coons responded. “But would you rule it out? Would you say it will not happen?”

In response, Noem shot back, “Do you plan on illegal aliens voting in our elections?”

That moment earned wide praise from conservative commentators on social media.

Noem says Biden administration ‘paid’ for children to be trafficked to US

Noem also updated Grassley on the status of HHS’s Unaccompanied Children (UC) program, which, under the Biden administration, placed more than 11,000 migrant children with non-vetted sponsors to house the children who were not a parent or legal guardian, according to information shared by his office. Grassley’s office previously submitted multiple oversight requests to DHS on the program, citing concerns that it placed children with dangerous or unvetted sponsors and restricted sharing information with law enforcement.

Grassley and the Trump-led DHS have alleged that the Biden administration turned a “blind eye” to children who needed proper supervision and care and cited concerns over background check failures, a lack of documentation in some cases and lax vetting procedures that allowed migrant children in the program to be “lost” or otherwise released to dangerous sponsors.

The Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General released a report on the programlast year, and Noem appeared to reference it during her testimony Tuesday.

Noem told lawmakers Tuesday that 450,000 children who entered the U.S. as “unaccompanied alien children” were “lost by the Biden administration and not tracked.”

“We’ve located about 145,000 of them, and we’ve done that through the investigative work of our Homeland Security Investigations team,” Noem said.

“The one thing that has been challenging is that, under the Biden administration, the government paid sponsors in HHS in order to host these children and those sponsors. Many times, we found instances where they trafficked these children themselves,” Noem continued.

“So, under that administration, we not only had children that were in this country as a part of a program, the government was paying individuals that were knowingly trafficking them and abusing them,” Noem said. “That has stopped. We have gone through and found these children and put them back with their families when we have the opportunity to do so and with loved ones that will care for them.”
