You’re Fired!!!

President Trump sounds like he got to say his two favorite words … “You’re fired!” … and the person on the receiving end this time is Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
Trump is firing Noem and replacing her with Oklahoma GOP Senator Markwayne Mullin … according to a Trump post on his social media platform Truth Social.
Before moving on from Noem, POTUS had been asking aides and Republicans in Congress for a list of potential replacements for Noem, according to the WSJ … and it sounds like the deciding factor here was Noem’s fiery hearing Tuesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Noem was grilled by Senators from both sides of the aisle … including GOP Senator Thom Thillis of North Carolina, who slammed her leadership and compared American citizens killed by immigration agents in Minnesota to a dog Noem herself shot to death.
The Prez is said to be upset that during the hearing, Noem claimed he signed off on the $200 million DHS ad campaign she starred in, where she urged illegal immigrants to leave the country on their own.
Trump says Mullin will start his new role with DHS on March 31 … and Noem will be moving over to the soon-to-be-announced “The Shield of the Americas,” which Trump says is a new security initiative in the Western Hemisphere. He says Noem will be a “special envoy.”
