Kristi Noem has been ousted from her position as homeland security secretary after intensifying calls for her resignation. Noem's tenure has been marked by allegations of corruption, deadly immigration raids and legal challenges. ProPublica reporter Justin Elliott has reported extensively on Noem's tenure, including a $200 million ad campaign that may have been the inciting incident for her firing. "This did not go through the normal competitive process," says Elliott. Instead, the ad "went to a Delaware LLC that was formed only a few days before."
President Trump has announced Republican Senator Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma as the new homeland security secretary. Mullin "has been known as a hard-liner," says Chris Stein, senior politics reporter for The Guardian US. Stein adds that the Trump administration will continue its aggressive immigration policies despite the change in leadership.

As the U.S. and Israel continue their bombardment of Iran and the conflict spreads throughout the region, we speak with two former U.S. government officials with experience in Middle East policy. Hala Rharrit is a career diplomat who resigned from the State Department in 2024 to protest the Biden administration's Gaza policy, and Jasmine El-Gamal served as a Middle East adviser at the Pentagon during the Obama administration.
"This is exactly what American diplomats have been trying to avoid for two decades. And before my resignation, it is exactly what I was warning against," says Rharrit, now in Oman after leaving Dubai with her family for safety.
El-Gamal casts doubt on the Trump administration's shifting reasons for the war, including President Trump's "feeling" that Iran was about to strike first. "It is ludicrous to expect the American people to believe that Iran would have attacked the U.S. preemptively in the middle of negotiations," she says, adding that the contradictory messages show "how little they were really thinking this through before they went to war."
