Noem refuses to resign, highlights border success amid unrest

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has faced criticism amid anti-ICE riots and a partial government shutdown. During a recent trip assessing winter storm recovery and border issues, she remained focused on national security, emphasizing the importance of funding DHS beyond ICE. Controversy arose from her comments on fatalities during ICE operations in Minneapolis, leading to calls for her resignation, though President Trump expressed support for her role. Despite protests during her events, Noem asserted that the public desires strong law enforcement against dangerous criminals.
