Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have expressed dismay with Noem’s comments immediately after a Border Patrol agent fatally shot Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care nurse at a local Veterans Affairs hospital, as she compared him to a “domestic terrorist.” 

Senate Republicans other than Tillis also indicated they are frustrated at the missteps, with some members arguing she is hemorrhaging support from the conference. 

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.), who has sided with Republicans on key votes, on Tuesday lobbed a “direct appeal to immediately fire” the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) secretary.
