He's been under pressure from his top advisers, from immigration hawks, from people at DHS for months and months to get rid of Noem.

And we're only now seeing him cave to that pressure.

There has been frustration growing with Kristi Noem for months.

It all started, I would say, about a year ago when these ads of Noem started appearing on places like Fox News.

They were prominent, glossy ads of her.

They looked like campaign ads of her saying, you know, encouraging people to self-deport.

If you are considering entering America illegally, don't even think about it.

If you come to our country and you break our laws, we will hunt you down.

And the problem people had with them was that they were in English and they were not airing places that typically people in the country illegally would be watching TV.

And he's sort of been her enforcer, her chief of staff.

He's been a source of fear and frustration across the Department of Homeland Security.

She spent $70 million on, it was a luxury 737 MAX with a private room in back.

And when this became public, it was sort of earmarked for high-profile deportations, but it was something that actually no one was using for her and her top advisor, Corey Lewandowski, to just travel around the country.

And those machines actually don't fully have the ability to scan shoes.

And so she inadvertently created this new security gap.

in the system, that was something that the IG investigated and found.

And when Kristi Noem's office heard about it, instead of actually addressing the problem, they basically forbade the findings of the IG from being released.

They gave it a higher level of classification and fought us tooth and nail from publishing it.

So this video comes out and like three people almost instantaneously text me this Instagram reel because I guess it's like peak Michelle content.

Like it's really on the nose for me.
