Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has temporarily moved out of her personal home and into secure military housing due to a major increase in threats and a specific case of online harassment. A spokesperson for her department explained that after the media revealed the location of Noem’s apartment in Washington, D.C., her personal information was shared on the dark web.
Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News, “Following the media’s publishing of the location of Secretary Noem’s Washington D.C. apartment, she has faced vicious doxxing on the dark web and a surge in death threats, including from the terrorist organizations, cartels, and criminal gangs that DHS targets. Due to threats and security concerns, she has been forced to temporarily stay in secure military housing… Secretary Noem continues to pay rent for her Navy Yard residence… It’s a shame that the media chooses sensationalism over the safety of people enforcing America’s laws to keep Americans safe.”
