Trump Fires Kristi Noem

The semester-by-tark laptop is often held in the internet.

It's a master's real-time. I'm saying, you can say that you're a hero. You're a master, right? But you don't understand. Egal, it's a famous trick.

It's a real-time job. And if you work, you'll be able to do it. - Is it? - Safe. It's a real-time job. You're a real-time hero.

Now you're a real-time hero. The Fire Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Nome.

This is a major development that comes after Nome's disastrous hearings of Congress over

the past few days, where she was ripped apart not only by Democrats, but by Republicans as well. My name is Brett Micellis with the Mightest Touch Network.

“Remember to hit subscribe now and help us get to 7 million subscribers.”

So Trump says that he is replacing Nome with Oklahoma Senator Mark Wayne Mullin, effective March 31st, and he's now spinning Nome's exit as Nome moving to VA special. An envoy roll for some new project, he's calling the shield of the Americas. But make Nome a stake, Kristi Nome has been fired. After a disastrous Senate hearing this week, we're even a Republicans turned on her.

Nome became too radioactive to keep. Here's Trump's post. He just wrote, quote, "I am pleased to announce that the highly respected United States Senator from the Great State of Oklahoma, Mark Wayne Mullin, will become the United States Secretary of Homeland Security, effective March 31st, 2026.

The current Secretary Kristi Nome, who has served us well, has had numerous and spectacular results, especially on the border, will be moving to be special on the way for the shield of the Americas. Our new security initiative in the Western Hemisphere, we are announcing on Saturday and Darrell, Florida.

I thank Kristi for her servless at homeland, serving 10 years in the United States House of Representatives, and three in the Senate. Mark Wayne has done a tremendous job representing the wonderful people of Oklahoma, where I won all 77 out of 77 counties in 2016, 2020, and 24, a Maga Warrior, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Get it right there. Now, Nome's position collapsed quickly after she made what was considered a cardinal sin during her Senate hearing the other day. She had told Republican Senator Kennedy that it was Trump's idea for her to do this $200 million ad campaign that she starred in.

Trump, it seems, felt like Nome was blaming him, and he claimed that he had nothing to do with that campaign. Here's a post from Fox Correspondent Bill Mulligan, for this is from before the firing, and he says the following, DHS Secretary Kristi Nome is now treading in some dangerous waters. She testified in the Senate this week that President Trump approved of, and it was

an aware of a $200 million ad campaign that featured her prominently, Trump now tells

Reuters and a phone call he did not sign off on it, quote, "I never do anything about

it," Trump said. So that is what reportedly did it. It wasn't her horrific handling of natural disasters or her out of control use of ice and border patrol, which resulted in the deaths of multiple Americans, but rather her blaming Trump for a massive ad campaign.

So let's dive into the clips that ended Kristi Nome's career. Here with Senator Kennedy, a grilling Nome on the $220 million worth of commercial, she made that featured her prominently, played the clip. How do you square that concern for waste, which I share, with the fact that you have spent

“$220 million running television advertisements that feature you prominently?”

>> Sir, the President tasked me with getting the message out to the country and to other countries where we were seeing the invasion come from, with putting commercials out that told them that if they were in this country illegally, that they needed to leave, or we would detain them and remove them and they'd not get the chance to come back to America the right way.

>> The better. >> That has been extremely effective. >> Asked you to run these ahead for Taj much, is that right? >> We had that conversation, yes, before I was put in this position and sworn in and confirmed and since then as well.

>> Okay, did you bid out those service contracts? >> Yes, they went out to a competitive bid and career officials at the department chose who would do those advertising commercials. >> And the people that you ended up picking were people who had formerly done your political work back in shop to code is that right?

>> No, that's not correct, sir.

“>> No, it's not, sir, we, the individuals who, I believe the careers who they chose were”

two different media firms, there's been conversation about their subcontractors but we have no legal authority to look into subcontractors on work like that. >> Okay, and you're saying that you're testifying that President Trump approved this,

We had conversations about making sure that we were telling people, I'm asking you a

short interrupt, but the President approved ahead of time, you spending $220 million running

TV ads across the country and which you featured prominently. >> Yes, sir, we went through the legal processes. Did it correct the President?

“>> No, it's not going to be, yes, he did, yes, okay, and one thing Senator, I think, would be helpful”

to know as how effective that communications has been, then not overwhelmed. >> Well, if in your name or recognition, I mean, I personally, just, I mean, to me, it puts the President in a terribly awkward spot, and I'm not saying you're not telling the truth, it's just hard for me to boy, you know, I'm the President, as I do, that you said,

Mr. President, here's some ads I've cut, and I'm going to spend $220 million running

them, that he would have agreed to that. I don't think Russ vote, at OMB, would have agreed to that. It's something we have to defend, I'm only appropriations committee. I mean, my research shows that you did not bid them out, that you, in fact, one of the people you picked, the strategy group, I'm sorry, say for America Media was a company formed

11 days before you picked them, and that the strategy group got most of the money, and ahead of that is married to your former spokesperson, I'm, I'm, look, we all have friends who are qualified, I'm not quickly in with that, I'm just, it troubles me, quarter, fifth to

a quarter of a billion dollars in taxpayer money when we're scratching for every penny and

we're fighting over recession packages. I just can't agree with Madam Secretary, are you still running those ads? Senator, I did not have anything to do with picking those contractors, I know political is at the Department of Homeland Security, I'm sure you didn't, I'm sure you didn't

“want to follow the competitive bid process, but I think the ads are due to end here”

in March, I think within a week, so I'm not sure the only, the one that is running is focusing on angel families, have you seen that? It is the one that's talking about this is our why, this is why we work every day, it's for the angel families in their victim. And that was just the tip of the iceberg, here was Republican Senator Tom Tillis calling know him a disaster highlighting the innocent Americans being detained by ICE, played the

clip. So why am I disappointed with Secretary Nome? Because we're not going after enough people who did this damage at the expense of running numbers is Steven Miller once out of the White House, we just want numbers. We want 1,000 a day, 6,000 a day, 9,000 a day because numbers matter, right? No, they don't matter, quality matters, not quantity,

quality. And what we've seen is a disaster under your leadership, Ms. Nome, a disaster. What we've seen is innocent people getting detained that turn out our American citizens. I could talk about the culture that's been created here with with Steven Miller aiding in a bedding. I heard first reports and he was the one that said it was a domestic terrorist situation where two people lost their lives in Minneapolis. I've heard that report. Maybe

you can refute it. I don't know that we'll have time for you to respond because I'm giving you a performance evaluation here. I'm not looking for a response. Now, let's go through some other moments. Here's Democratic Representative Eric Swallwell asking, "Nome, if anyone has been fired for the agency's failures, play this." Tell me then, has a single ice agent or CBC officer as a single ice agent or CVP officer

in discipline since you've been Secretary of Homeland Security? As we've seen women drag through their streets by their hair and thrown into unmarked cars, people chase through the fields and factories where they work. Public executions happening in our streets has a single ice agent or CVP officer in discipline. Yes, they have. How many?

There's, I don't know the number. I can get that for you. If you think that number is important?

“I think that it's wise and smart and what we're doing is accurate according to the law by”

doing those internal investigations through the process that's set up. There's an office of professional responsibility that does the investigation and decisions are brought up before the national use of force board and they review each incident as objectively outside of that law enforcement encounter and then give a decision for it.

There could be.

“Well, I'm not asking if it could be. I'm asking if it has any one been fired.”

Certain that they have that happens once in a while when there is a need for someone to

be. For conducts related to enforcement actions. We hold our law enforcement officers accountable and are grateful that they serve that they put their lives on the line and also recognize that when these situations that they follow their training and the legality of the course to how they interact with

the public. Here's Jamie Raskin asking, "No, if she still considers Renee Nicole good and Alex Pretty, the Americans killed by ICE to be domestic terrorists. No, I refuse to say no, play the clip." But only a few hours after they were gunned down by your agents.

You called Renee a domestic terrorist. You said Alex committed an act of domestic terrorism. Alex's parents responded to your calling their son and domestic terrorists. They said the seconding lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting.

Now I want to give you a chance before the entire country to correct your false and defamatory claim, based on what you know today, Madam Secretary, were Renee good and Alex Pretty domestic terrorists. Congressman, what happened in Minnesota in those two incidents was an absolute tragedy.

“Were they domestic terrorists as you said to the country?”

I can tell you, I can tell you, because I know that their lives will never be the same

after that. Is that an apology for what you said? Do you, in those instances, offer as much information as we can from officers and agents on the ground in a chaotic scene that gets-- I'll repeat my question, including my time.

Based on what you know today, Madam Secretary, based on what you know today, were Renee good and Alex Pretty domestic terrorists. As you know, there's ongoing investigations that are being led by-- Oh, but you didn't wait for the investigation, did you? You didn't wait for the evidence, you proclaimed that they were domestic terrorists at the

time. Why did you do that? And you didn't wait to attack our law enforcement. Why did you do that? We're going into a dangerous situation.

Why did you call them domestic terrorists?

Is our ice officers and our HSI officers that day risked their lives to protect that scene? So evidence could be reclaim, so it could be used in the investigation, because those violent rioters that were-- So you're proud of the fact that you called them domestic terrorists, is that what you're telling America?

HSI officers put their lives on the line to protect that scene so evidence so we could have. Yes, they do. But you told a lie about them. You said that they were domestic terrorists. Do you regret that?

I offer my condolences to those family and-- Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretty domestic terrorists. You're ongoing investigations, and so I can't-- So you still don't know. You think that's an open question.

I would think you would want there to still be investigations going into these situations. Well, you stated the conclusion two hours after they were killed that they were domestic terrorists. I wanted to give you an opportunity to correct the record. Not just for their family, but for everybody in America who believes in the truth and fairness and honesty.

In every situation, as facts come out, we relay-- You know, you're acting ice director Todd Lyons came before a Congress. He said he had no knowledge whatsoever that Alex Pretty and really good were domestic terrorists. None. This is your guy.

He said that. He admitted that that was wrong. Why won't you admit it? I'll tell you the investigation still ongoing. And will--

“So do you regret speaking before the investigation?”

I would say that in those situations-- You regret that. Alex seen on the ground, we relay information to the American people that they're asking for. And as things change, situations change. People were asking you whether they were domestic terrorists.

And you decided that they were before the investigation? As we learn more, we-- You don't want to say anything to their families? I did. I said I condolences.

For one, I'm sorry. How about an apology for what you said about their loved ones? I heard his with them, and we will continue to stand with them as they get a complete investigation into the situation. All right.

Next representative, Kamlogger Dove, asked Noam about her reported a fair with her advisor Corey Lewandowski, and notably, which you'll notice in this clip is that Noam did not deny the affair, even with her husband sitting right behind her, play the clip. Trump knows that this guy is shady. Corey has a decades-long record of physical batteries, sexual harassment, illegal lobbying

for a Venezuelan oil company, and bringing a loaded gun into a federal building, despite being fired or removed from virtually every position he has ever held due to misconduct. He now wields unchecked, unconfirmed, undisclosed, power over your department. This person has no experience running anything close to Department of Homeland Security, or even advising someone in your position.

He is unqualified, which again has left my constituents and I wondering why he is your

So Secretary Noam, at any time during your tenure, as Director of Department of Homeland

Security, have you had sexual relations with Corey Lewandowski? Mr. Chairman, I am shocked that we're going down and peddling tabloid garbage in this committee today. Secretary Noam, one thing that I would tell you is that he is a special government employee who works for the White House.

There are thousands of them in the federal government. Secretary Noam is an adviser. It has no authority to be questioned and it is okay for you to know what authority it is. But it is also a real relationship.

“So what I would say you should be able to answer to what we do at the Department of Homeland”

Security. And without any heavy single day is to protect it, if someone is to make decisions, you or any federal official is slid with their subordinate. That should be easiest. You should be wanting to answer that question as garbage.

Because it is not about your sense that you are blinded. It is about your judge. That kind of garbage, about reclaiming my entire crime so that I can hear my entire case. That's a long time belongs to the gentle lady from California. Here's Representative Jared Mosko, it's a mocking gnome over a story that she fired someone

in the Coast Guard because he forgot to take her blanky on her plane, play the cliff. 200 miles of border walls being held up by you that had to bring in time, home and pull out of Minnesota. I think the country needs to do a national divorce from you on biblical grounds. I mean, if Donald Trump was still a print this Trump, he would look at you and he would

realize you're the weakness cabinet member and he would fire you. And if the president said to you that only way DHS Korea open is if you resigned, I hope you would take him up on it. Now I want to end on a happy note, Mr. Chairman real quickly. The president gave all sorts of stuff out during the State of the Union.

I don't want you leave. I got you a new Coast Guard blanky, the one you lost. Okay, so this is for you. You don't leave empty handed when you come to judiciary. Thank you Mr. Chairman.

I'm a gentleman as he's fired. Just to give you some quick insight on her replacement, Mark Wayne Mullin. He is, let's just say, not the brightest guy. Here's Mullin the other day talking about the Iran war. He called it a war, then tried to say that it wasn't a war.

Play the clip.

“Are there measures being taken not to eliminate other possible alternatives to leadership?”

This is war, and we're taking out the threat. And if you're part of the threat and you have a, your target, you know, what we call, called not all the arrows, but going out to the archers, you can see this is war. You can see this is war. We have declared war.

They declare war on us. We have it. We haven't declared it. We haven't declared it. We haven't declared it.

We haven't declared it. They called it war. But I was saying that, okay, well, that was a mispoke, but I was saying that they declared

war on us, but war is ugly, it always has been ugly.

But we're, you know, we're taking out a regime that's been trying to attack us for quite some time. We have to consider this as war. We have to declare war. So if we have to declare war, then I don't see that.

The President has asked us to declare war yet, but they have to declare war on us. We're just simply fighting the threat that's been at our door for sports. We're just going to be a chance. But you're not going to be a chance. But you're not going to be a chance.

That's going to be coming. That an ask from here's Molina. One of these hearings demanding that everybody say thank you to President Trump for being a strong leader. Just so embarrassing.

Play the clip. But you can't deny that this was a threat in an essential growing threat to the United States. And you want to say he's playing politics. We get the politics behind it, Mr. Peters.

And you guys are playing politics. You guys are the ones that are grandstanding. The President's doing his job as commander and chief.

“And I think at one time or next, we should say thank you.”

Thank you for being a strong leader.

But there's no way in God's green earth, you guys can never get the President.

At least President Trump and he credit. Sorry. Thank you. Sir. I'm out of touch.

I still got 49 seconds. Here's Molina in a 2020 three hearing challenging the Teamsters President Sean O'Brien to a fight in the middle of a hearing play this clip. Sorry. This is a time.

This is a place. You want to run your mouth. We can be took consenting adults. We can finish it here. Okay.

This fine. Perfect. You want to do it now? I'd love to do it right now. Let's stand your butt up there.

You stand your butt up. Oh, hold on. Stop it. Say you solution every quote. No, no.

Sit down. Sit down. You're on your United States. Sit down. Sit down, please.

Can I respond? Hold it. Hold it. If we can't, no, I'm sorry. This is.

Now, let me just remind you of some of the other Christi-Nome of low lights. Here was known falsely claiming that Alex Pretty was a domestic terrorist. This was despicable. Play the clip. The White House is labeled the man who was killed in Minnesota as a domestic terrorist.

Is that something you agree with and have you seen any evidence? When you perpetuate violence against a government because of ideology. Because of ideological reasons and for reasons to resist and perpetuate violence.

This individual who came with weapons and ammunition to stop a law enforcement operation

“of federal law enforcement officers committed an act of domestic terrorism.”

That's the facts. Where's the evidence of this ideology? Yes, true evidence of.

If your call, no one was also recently under fire for wanting to purchase the $70 million

luxury jet with a queen-size bedroom of par and four flat screen TVs. There was the incident Jared Moskowitz had mentioned in which the person she's been allegedly

“having an affair with, Corey Lewandowski, fired a US Coast Guard pilot after”

Nooms blanket was left behind on a plane. Noom would post things like this on her social media images of paintings of herself on horses. Asking which should be her official portrait.

She'd always be dressing up in these different costumes like she was constantly doing cosplay.

And of course, she was disastrous in the face of natural disasters. Like when the floods had Texas last year on July 5th, FEMA had received 3,000 calls from survivors and only 1% of those calls went unanswered. But that night, Trump and Noom decided to fire the people who handled those calls. By July 7th, 85% of those calls went unanswered.

Not only that, Noom did not authorize FEMA's deployment of urban search and rescue teams until more than 72 hours after the flooding began. So all in all, just a terrible, terrible, terrible run in her position. So there you have it. Christy Noom is out, a stunning development.

She will not be missed. And I'd like to be able to tell you that we'll be in better hands with Mark Wayne Moan, but I cannot do that either. Thanks for watching.
