Noem Reportedly Dropped F-Bombs on DHS Officials After Controversy
Following reports of policy-induced chaos within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Secretary Kristi Noem reportedly berated officials and used profanity. These issues stemmed from Noem’s decision to personally approve all payments over $100,000, leading to significant delays in crucial aid, as well as lapses in essential contracts. Reportedly, Noem and her de facto chief of staff, Corey Lewandowski, displayed disrespectful behavior toward DHS staff, with Lewandowski taking a heavy hand in contract management and personnel decisions. Multiple sources confirm the culture at DHS is in turmoil, with the White House expressing concerns about their management style.
