Trump Fires DHS Boss Over $270M Flying Party Jet and Affair Rumors
KEY POINTS
- â˘President Trump dismissed Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Thursday after advisers urged her removal.
- â˘Noem faced bipartisan criticism over luxury jets bought with deportation funds, alleged mismanagement, and a rumored affair.
- â˘She was replaced by Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin amid a DHS shutdown and congressional funding deadlock.
In a masterclass of bureaucratic chaos, President Trump canned DHS Secretary Kristi Noem after her resume looked like a 'how not to manage' seminar. Noem, who apparently spent millions on two Gulfstreams plus a Boeing Business Jet 737 with a bedroom and barâideal for deporting immigrants in styleâfaced bipartisan grilling about her taxpayer-funded luxury plane party. Throw in rumored extramarital dalliances with Corey Lewandowski, you get the perfect Trumpian cocktail. Noemâs âburnt goodwillâ included Minneapolis shootouts, bungled FEMA funds, and immigration ad campaigns clocking $79M spent just airing her mug. Trump swears he was clueless, though he critiqued Noemâs horseback riding ads last year and wanted himself in them. Nobody liked her, and now sheâs historyâreplaced swiftly by Oklahomaâs Sen. Markwayne Mullin, just as DHS limps through shutdown chaos in a tense Iran backdrop.
