US President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday announced the nomination of South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem as his Homeland Security Secretary.”I am pleased to announce that the Governor and former Congresswoman from South Dakota, Kristi Noem, will be appointed to serve as the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Kristi has been very strong on Border Security,” Trump said.

She was the first governor to send National Guard Soldiers to help Texas fight the Biden Border Crisis, and they were sent a total of eight times, Trump said, adding that Noem will work closely with ‘Border Czar’ Tom Homan to secure the Border, and will guarantee that American Homeland is secure from its adversaries.
