In a major cabinet shake-up, President Trump has removed Kristi Noem from her position as Secretary of Homeland Security and announced that Oklahoma Republican Senator Markwayne Mullin will step into the role.
The personnel change represents a significant shift in the administration’s national security leadership team. Noem, who previously served as South Dakota’s governor before taking the homeland security post, has been replaced effective immediately.
Senator Mullin, a Republican representing Oklahoma, will now transition from his legislative duties to head the massive federal department responsible for border security, immigration enforcement, and domestic terrorism prevention.
In separate developments, the Department of Justice has made public additional documentation connected to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation that had previously been withheld from public view.
