Just days after being sworn in as Donald Trump’s secretary of homeland security, Kristi Noem, well coiffed and clad in tactical gear, popped up in New York City before dawn with a message for Americans – and her boss, the US president.
“Live this AM from NYC. I’m on it,” Noem wrote on X, the first in a series of social media posts documenting her ride-along with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agents and officers from other federal agencies as they conducted a raid at a residential building in the Bronx on Tuesday. Hours later, in a piece-to-camera video, she declared the morning’s mission a success: “We are getting the dirtbags off the streets.”
