In his first second-term cabinet overhaul, Donald Trump has named Markwayne Mullin as the new Secretary of Homeland Security, moving Kristi Noem out of the role. The leadership change follows months of mounting pressure on the department, marked by bipartisan congressional criticism of Noem and public fallout from the recent Minneapolis shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
Noem will officially vacate the position on 31 March to assume a new role as special envoy for the Western Hemisphere.
