Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem reportedly fast-tracked more than $11 million in federal funds to fix a Florida pier located near the reported home of a top adviser, after a wealthy past political donor reached out to her for help.
The allegations come amid complaints the Federal Emergency Management Agency has been slow to respond to recent disasters like flooding in central Texas, thanks in part to reported policies like Noem personally needing to sign off on expenses over $100,000.
