Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is seeking advice on how to fire people who dont like us as she moves to overhaul a workforce that she complained hasnt been required to do much.
Noem criticized her employees Wednesday during a public meeting with advisers, highlighting the increasingly strained relationship the secretary has with many of the Department of Homeland Securitys roughly 250,000 workers.
The secretarys remarks kicked off the first meeting of the Homeland Security Advisory Council since President Donald Trump took office in January, setting an aggressive tone for the independent advisers group that will make recommendations for overhauling the department. The group is stocked with Trump allies, including former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, DHS adviser Corey Lewandowski, and South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster (R).
Noem told the members she spends much of her time surrounded by bureaucrats and wants the councils advice on how to craft homeland security policies that will keep the country secure 20 years from now.
