Gavin Newsom Reacts To DHS Ouster: 'The Dark Heart Of This Administration Is Not Noem'
HuffPost
The California governor argued that ex-Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was fired to protect the real mastermind behind her.
Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) shared an intriguing theory Thursday behind the ouster of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, arguing President Donald Trump had only fired her to shield one senior official — the true “dark heart” of the administration — from accountability.
Newsom has been touring the country to promote his new memoir, “Young Man in a Hurry,” and was speaking in New Hampshire on Thursday with progressive influencer Jack Cocchiarella when the subject of Noem’s firing came up in front of a cheering audience.
“I mean, let’s be honest here,” said Newsom. “The dark heart of this administration is not Noem, it’s [White House deputy chief of staff] Stephen Miller, and he needs to be next. And it’s really true. In so many ways, she’s just a scapegoat in all this.”
He added, “Everything she was doing was designed by Miller. And I don’t think it, I know it.”
Trump announced Thursday that Noem will be moving into a just-formed new position as “special envoy for The Shield of Americans,” and confirmed he has nominated Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) as her replacement.
