President-elect Donald Trump has chosen South Dakota Gov. According to two sources with knowledge of the decision who spoke to CNN, Kristin Noem will be his next homeland security minister.  ,

Stephen Miller and Tom Homan may be hired to take over the organization, which will show that Trump is serious about implementing his immigration policies, according to reports from CNN.  ,
CNN then lamented that Trump “ensuring a loyalist may lead an agency that is crucial to his private agenda” by selecting Noem.
As if none of his forerunners chose people who would n’t compromise their goals.
That was n’t CNN’s only attempt to cast Trump’s pick in a negative light. The Department of Homeland Security’s “immense quantity of turmoil” was further highlighted in the report’s subsequent expression. At that time, DHS cycled through five distinct officials, with only two confirmed by the Senate. The company, which oversees a$ 60 billion resources and employs hundreds of thousands, was portrayed as struggling with volatility during Trump’s career.
Noem, who formerly served as a representative for South Dakota, will now be in charge of running the sprawling company that includes everything from the US Secret Service to the US Customs and Border Protection.

Noem, who was once a rising star in the Republican Party and thought to be Donald Trump’s potential running mate, faced a backlash following the release of her narrative,” No Going Up: The Truth on What’s Wrong with Elections and How We Walk America Forward,” earlier this year. She described an event in which she killed her dog, Cricket, not out of kindness for the suffering of an aging pet, but because of Cricket’s disorderly conduct while on a grouse hunting trip and a design of hostility toward people and other animals. Noem described Cricket as “dangerous to people she came in contact with” and yet admitted,” I hated that dog”.
” At that moment”, Noem wrote,” I realized I had to put her down”.
Noem’s narrative, which focuses on her determination in handling difficult circumstances, tells of taking Cricket to a sand trap and shooting her. However, the bill fell flat, casting her in a bad light instead. This story was n’t likely to have a positive impact, so you do n’t need to be a dog owner to understand that.

Noem’s story’s one redeeming quality is that, unlike Joe Biden, whose dogs have also generated disagreement, she was open about it. Biden’s European Shepherd, Major, immediately became a concern upon entering the White House, apparently biting many Secret Service agents before being slowly rehomed with a “family friend”. Shortly after, the Bidens replaced him with a new European Shepherd puppy, Commander, signaling their dogs were little more than media-friendly accessories, quickly swapped out.

Even with all the tools at Biden’s waste, Commander, too, began biting citizens and was later removed from the White House. The standard excuse was the “high-stress environment”, an unsatisfactory state considering past White House dogs under the Obamas, Bushes, and Clintons had no such problems. The Biden White House made incredible efforts to conceal the events. Even when the facts of the cover-up were made public, the internet hardly raised a single question when a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the Secret Service revealed alleged allegations of Biden beating and punching his dogs.
