A new book is set to reveal that top Department of Homeland Security officials held a secret six-hour meeting at a private residence in Washington, D.C., shortly after President Donald Trump was sworn in for his second term. The meeting centered on what they called a “gathering crisis” within the department: the alleged relationship between Secretary Kristi Noem and her senior aide, Corey Lewandowski.
The book, titled Undue Process: The Inside Story of Trump’s Mass Deportation Program, is written by Julia Ainsley. Early excerpts show that senior officials were seriously worried about how the alleged affair between Noem, 54, and Lewandowski, 52, was affecting the agency. According to The Daily Beast, this was happening while officials were simultaneously under heavy pressure to carry out President Trump’s mass deportation policies.
