Trump just fired Noem.
Trump demands a big show of brutality toward brown people, for the pleasure of MAGA, then fires an underling for implementing the policy he decreed.
As usual, to "JCs", the rest of us are expendable meat.

downright shocking.
Then again, the successor has stellar credentials.
Trump loves watching Mullin on TV, aides said, which played a role in the president’s decision to tap him for the position. Trump has called Mullin following combative interviews to praise him

Not really. She was just reassigned to some job outside the limelight.
Noem was in a world of hurt already and likely to lose that job in a more public humiliating way so it looks to me like Trump did her a favor.

And Trump created a position just for her:
In a social media post announcing her ouster Thursday, Trump praised Noem, saying she “has served us well, and has had numerous and spectacular results (especially on the Border!)”
Noem will serve as special envoy of a Western Hemisphere security initiative called the “Shield of the Americas,” he added, set to be announced Saturday.https://www.ms.now/news/kristi-noem-out-as-homelan...Yeah, that sounds like quite a demotion to me.

Pentagon hints at military action as Hegseth issues ultimatum to Latin American allies
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth issued a warning to Latin American leaders on Thursday, stating that the United States is prepared to launch unilateral military operations across more than a dozen countries if local governments fail to dismantle drug cartels.
Speaking at the inaugural Americas Counter Cartel Conference in Miami, Hegseth told a gathering of regional officials that the era of treating organized crime solely as a policing issue is over.https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/pentagon-hint...Trump the Perfect has already demonstrated he really does not give one whit about "drugs". This is about "domination".
