President-elect Donald Trump has announced that South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem will serve as the new secretary of the Department of Homeland Security in his administration. Noem, who has been governor since 2019 and previously served as a congresswoman, has a strong track record on border security, according to the Trump transition team.
Noem expressed her gratitude for the appointment, stating that she looks forward to working with Border Czar Tom Homan to make America safe again. Trump emphasized Noem’s strong record on border security and focus on big issues during his discussions with her.
In addition to Noem’s appointment, other bombshell announcements were made on Tuesday, including Pete Hegseth being nominated as secretary of the Department of Defense, and Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy leading the new Department of Government Efficiency.
Overall, Trump’s selections for key positions in his administration are indicative of his focus on security and efficiency. Noem’s appointment as DHS secretary adds to the mix of experienced and dedicated individuals who are expected to bring their expertise to help achieve the President-elect’s goals for a stronger and safer America.
