Kristi Noem chosen to lead Homeland Security under Trump: Report

President-elect Donald Trump has chosen South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem to serve as the next secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, CNN reported, citing two sources familiar with the decision.

It comes after Trump announced that two immigration hardliners will serve in his incoming administration after he promised during his campaign to launch the largest deportation operation in the nation’s history.

He has tapped longtime adviser Stephen Miller to be deputy director of policy in his new administration and Tom Homan, his former acting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement director, as his “border czar.”
