Donald Trump has nominated South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem as the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. Noem, a staunch supporter of Trump and former U.S. House member, is known for her minimal intervention approach during the pandemic and has deployed National Guard troops to the southern U.S. border multiple times, aligning with Trump’s strict immigration policies. As DHS secretary, she will focus heavily on immigration enforcement and border security, facing scrutiny from civil rights and immigrant advocacy groups. Noem’s nomination comes despite previous controversies, including a damaging passage in her autobiography that has impacted her political prospects.
