President Donald Trump has nominated South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem to lead the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), aiming to enact major reforms in border security and national safety. Noem has expressed hope for bipartisan support, citing the importance of homeland security. The nomination comes after criticism of the previous DHS leadership under Secretary Mayorkas, with Senator Rick Scott and others highlighting the need for change. Noem's appointment is seen as a move to address the ongoing border crisis, with Senator Kevin Cramer pointing out the national security threat posed by the current situation at the borders, including the arrest of a member of a Venezuelan prison gang in West Fargo.
