Corey Lewandowski Fired Pilot for Leaving Kristi Noem’s Blanket on Plane as Sources Say Pair ‘Spending Nights Regularly’ Together

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Corey Lewandowski fired a Coast Guard pilot for leaving Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s blanket on a plane — but was forced to rehire them upon realizing there was nobody else to fly the party home, according to a stunning new report.

Lewandowski, an unpaid special government employee who unofficially acts as chief of staff for Noem — with whom he’s had a years-long affair — has overseen a reign of terror over department workers since President Trump took office last year.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Noem had to switch planes during an official trip due to a maintenance issue, but her blanket was not moved to the replacement aircraft.

Lewandowski fired the pilot and told them to find a commercial flight home when they reached their destination, only to reinstate them due to the lack of a backup.

The report did not specify when or where the incident occurred.

A spokesperson for DHS did not deny the story to the Journal, but said Noem has “made personnel decisions to deliver excellence.” (Read more from “Corey Lewandowski Fired Pilot for Leaving Kristi Noem’s Blanket on Plane as Sources Say Pair ‘Spending Nights Regularly’ Together” HERE)

Kristi Noem Pushes Sweeping Travel Ban After Meeting With Trump: ‘We Don’t Want Them’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Monday that, following a meeting with President Donald Trump, she is recommending a sweeping travel ban on every country she claims is sending dangerous immigrants to the United States.

Noem made the announcement in a fiery post on X, denouncing certain immigrants as “killers” and “leeches.”

“I just met with the President. I am recommending a full travel ban on every d— country that’s been flooding our nation with killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies,” Noem said.

She slammed certain immigrants as threats to public safety and accused them of draining resources meant for Americans.

“Our forefathers built this nation on blood, sweat, and the unyielding love of freedom—not for foreign invaders to slaughter our heroes, suck dry our hard-earned tax dollars, or snatch the benefits owed to AMERICANS,” she said.

“WE DON’T WANT THEM. NOT ONE.” (Read more from “Kristi Noem Pushes Sweeping Travel Ban After Meeting With Trump: ‘We Don’t Want Them’” HERE)

Top Trump Officials Are Moving Onto Military Bases

/0 Comments/in , /by

Top members of Donald Trump’s White House are reportedly living in homes typically reserved for top military brass in Washington, D.C. as they pull back from neighborhoods where their presences were often targeted for protests by the many Democrats who make the Capital region their homes.

Stephen Miller and Secretary of State Marco Rubio recently joined a growing list of Trump Cabinet secretaries and advisers who’ve chosen to live in reserved military housing, with Rubio moving onto “Generals Row” in Fort McNair and Miller also living in the area after abandoning his digs in Arlington, The Atlantic reported.

They join Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who moved into military housing earlier this year, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who is alone among his compatriots in finding some precedent for his decision to move onto Generals Row alongside Rubio.

White House and administration officials gave security concerns as the reasons for the arrangements; one other senior White House official, whose identity was not named by The Atlantic, is also in a similar arrangement due to “security concerns related to a specific foreign threat,” said officials.

While legal, the arrangements put a strain on the short supply of such housing in the District of Columbia and could ruffle some feathers among the nation’s top commanders at a time when relations between political appointees and the brass is already strained. Hegseth is largely to thank for that division after he summoned commanders to Virginia for a speech about “warrior ethos” and aesthetics that was reportedly not well-received.

On Iranian Terrorist Sleeper Cell Threat, Noem Vows to ‘Go After Them Before They Do Anything’

/1 Comment/in , /by

By The Federalist. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem sought Monday to reassure the American people that the Trump administration is actively working to protect the homeland following the U.S. attack on Iranian nuclear sites.

“We are continuing to evaluate every single threat and to proactively go after them before they do anything or take any activity,” Noem told The Daily Signal, when asked about the threat of Iranian terrorist sleeper cells in the U.S.

Following the U.S. targeted attack on three Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday, the Trump administration has warned that the threat of the activation of terrorist sleeper cells in the U.S. has never been higher.

While the threat level is high, it is not new, Noem told reporters at a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a new facility at the Customs and Border Protection’s Advanced Training Center in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, on Monday.

“We have incredible threats to this country from many nations that are enemies to the United States of America,” Noem told press. “You know, it’s not just Iran, it’s North Korea, Russia, China, consistently every single day are trying to threaten our way of life. So, my job is to do all that I can to protect our country before something bad does happen.”

The U.S. struck Iran’s Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear sites over the weekend, dropping more than a dozen bunker-buster bombs from B-2 bombers. The bunker-buster bomb is America’s largest nonnuclear bomb. The U.S. also launched Tomahawk cruise missiles from a submarine, striking Iranian nuclear targets.

AG Bondi reveals ‘high alert’ status as Iranian nationals roam free in US

By Fox News. Attorney General Pam Bondi was questioned Monday during a House budget hearing about Iranian nationals who entered the country illegally during the Biden administration after the Trump administration warned the conflict with Iran raised threat levels in the United States.

Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, asked if the attorney general knew how many Iranian nationals in the United States have been convicted of crimes. Bondi said she was unsure, but that more than 1,000 entered the country during the last administration.

“And I can tell you, we are on high alert, and everyone is looking at that very closely,” Bondi said.

U.S. Border Patrol arrested 1,504 Iranians at the southern border during President Joe Biden’s term, and nearly half of them, or 729, were released into the United States, according to a senior Customs and Border Protection source.

Bondi’s remarks echo those of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which issued a notice one day prior saying that the Iran conflict “is causing a heightened threat environment in the United States.” The DHS cited the possibility of extremists in the United States “independently mobilizing to violence” if Iranian leaders were to call for it. The department also said cyberattacks and incidents of antisemitism could increase. (Read more from “AG Bondi reveals ‘high alert’ status as Iranian nationals roam free in US” HERE)

Kristi Noem Showcases ‘Worst of the Worst’ Illegals Arrested: 12 Different Sex Offenses Against Children

/0 Comments/in , /by

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem highlighted some of the illegal immigrants detained by immigration enforcement over the past several days, showcasing their crimes which include “12 different sex offenses against children.”

In a video posted to her X account, Noem explained that she receives a list every day on illegal immigrants who have been picked up by immigration enforcement agents. These individuals, she emphasized, are not only in the country illegally, but criminals, highlighting some of the “worst of the worst.”

“Here we have a Guatemalan we picked up today — aggravated assault against a police officer,” she said, going through a stack of paper with pictures of the offenders.

“This one — rape of a victim under age of seventeen years old,” she said, going to the next page. “This one robbed a disabled senior citizen.”

The fourth individual highlighted by Noem has “12 different sex offenses against children. If you look at it, two counts of statutory rape of a child. Two counts of indecent assault and battery.”

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem Celebrates Voluntary Dismissal on Case Involving Deported Immigrants

/0 Comments/in , /by

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem celebrated a court win with a rather notable post over X on Thursday night. Highlighting that she’s been dismissed from a case involving deported illegal immigrants, Noem posted “Suck it.”

The voluntary dismissal in Espinoza Escalona v. Noem came after the plaintiffs, including Maiker Espinoza Escalona was removed from the United States, thus making the lawsuit no longer relevant. The case has been dismissed without prejudice, so it could still come back.

Mario Nawfal, in sharing Noem’s post, shared some information about the case, including how leftist groups that have been defending illegal immigrants during this second Trump administration, such as the American Civili Liberties Union (ACLU), were involved.

Screenshots of Noem’s post, which is still up as of Thursday night, approximately two hours after she shared it, abound, including but not only from Nawfal.

Last month, the DHS X account also shared coverage from ABC News lamenting the plight of Espinoza Escalona and his family. The post tells a far different story from what the media covered, though.

Sarah Palin Responds to Kristi Noem Threat, “Or What?”

/4 Comments/in , , /by

President Trump’s U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem continues to be harassed by political pundits on both sides of the aisle.

Some have critiqued the ensembles she wears when she joins law enforcement officers (MAGA star Megyn Kelly called Noem “Agent Cosplay”) and for posing with immigrants deported from the U.S. to a mega prison in El Salvador (Ret. Vice Admiral Michael Franken said Noem violated the 4th Geneva Conventions).

Former Alaska Governor and 2008 GOP Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin this week objected to Noem declaration that all Americans will need a Real ID to fly.

Noem announced on X: “Starting May 7, you will need a Real ID to fly. Real IDs make identification harder to forge, thwarting criminals and terrorists. If you plan to fly, make sure you get a Real ID so you won’t be denied from your flight or face travel delays!”

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem led an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportation raid in Arizona on Tuesday.

According to the New York Post, Noem “led about 100 federal agents on an early morning raid” in Phoenix. During the “multi-agency” raid, which was led by Phoenix ICE agents, three illegal aliens who were wanted on charges relating to “weapons and drug offenses to running a money laundering operation,” were captured, according to the outlet.

Noem told the outlet that “the effort of cooperation” there was “between agencies is getting turned onto steroids,” and added that anyone in the United States illegally “that’s committing crimes and has broken our laws will face consequences.”

“The effort of cooperation we have between agencies is getting turned onto steroids,” Noem told the outlet. “We have this being multiplied across the country exponentially. Now anyone who’s in this country illegally that’s committing crimes and has broken our laws will face consequences.”

Noem: America’s Enemies Intentionally Bring Fentanyl To U.S. ‘To Kill Americans’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said during an interview over the weekend that America’s enemies are flooding the country’s streets with fentanyl in — part because they are trying to kill Americans.

Noem made the remarks during a Sunday interview on CBS News’ “Face The Nation” with Margaret Brennan while talking about President Donald Trump’s efforts to stop the flow of drugs coming into the U.S.

She said that the Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico were really about fentanyl, not just the economy.

“I think the president obviously wants a strong economy, obviously wants better trade deals as well,” she said. “But this is about fentanyl and what we can do to stop the cartels from partnering with Chinese officials, laundering money and bringing a poison into our country that is specifically designed to kill the next generation.”

“I think a lot of people don’t understand the strategy of these enemies of the United States and what they’re utilizing,” she continued. “They are bringing this in, not just to make money. They’re bringing it in here to kill Americans. And it’s time that we stand up for the people that live here and make sure that we’re stopping this war against our children.”
