President Donald Trump<\/a> is reportedly considering moving on from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem <\/a>in a staff shakeup that could come in time for the New Year, according to a report. <\/p>\n

Two former DHS officials who served under both Trump and former President Joe Biden told The Bulwark <\/a>that Trump is considering moving on from Noem, with the change potentially coming \u201creally soon.\u201d <\/p>\n

A third official cautioned that the current situation is \u201cfluid,\u201d meaning Trump may still let the ex-South Dakota governor lead new enforcement operations planned for January and February, according to the report. <\/p>\n

Trump tapped Noem to lead DHS after she dropped off his vice presidential shortlist when she admitted that she once shot and killed her family\u2019s pet dog because it was not easily trainable. She has since gone on to lead Trump\u2019s controversial anti-immigration, mass deportation agenda. <\/p>\n

While Trump likes Noem, top White House leaders have grown frustrated with her leadership \u2013 specifically her employment of divisive chief advisor Corey Lewandowski<\/a>, according to the report.<\/p>\n

President Trump is reportedly considering replacing Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, according to a report (AP)<\/p>\n

Lewandowski denied the report in a statement to The Bulwark, telling the publication, \u201cNone of that is true.\u201d <\/p>\n

Trump has often voiced his praise for Noem, who has been an enthusiastic operator in service of the president\u2019s agenda, often appearing in videos meant to glorify the administration\u2019s deportation program and demonize the immigrant populations it has targeted. <\/p>\n

Noem\u2019s potential exit may come as Trump wants to start the New Year with a clean slate, according to the report. On top of this, Trump may be considering tapping Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, who is set to leave office in January, for any potential cabinet openings.<\/p>\n

Youngkin previously expressed interest in an economic or business role, rather than one focused on immigration, though he would still be excited to have a cabinet role, according to a CNN report. <\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been made clear that [Youngkin] is interested in working for the administration in some capacity,\u201d one senior White House official told CNN. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Noem appears to be trying to stay onTrump\u2019s good side, bizarrely thanking him for \u201ckeeping the hurricanes away\u201d during Tuesday\u2019s cabinet meeting. <\/p>\n

\u201cSir, you made it through hurricane season without a hurricane\u2026even you kept the hurricanes away. We appreciate that,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n

White House Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson addressed the claims on X, writing, \u201cAnonymous former staffers pretend to know what POTUS is thinking and the Bulwark treats them as credible? This \u2018report\u2019 \u2014 and the Bulwark \u2014 is total FAKE NEWS! Secretary Noem is doing a great job implementing the President\u2019s agenda and Making America Safe Again.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Your support helps us to tell the story From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":304154,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-304153","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/304153","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=304153"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/304153\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/304154"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=304153"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=304153"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=304153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
