Noem's ouster could pave way to reopen shuttered Homeland Security Department

The ouster of Kristi Noem opens the path for a potential deal to reopen the Department of Homeland Security, according to Senate sources familiar with negotiations.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) said Noem’s departure from Homeland Security is a “major step” that he said should move the negotiations closer to a deal.

A Senate GOP source familiar with the talks said Republican leaders hope it will be enough to persuade a group of centrists to break with their leadership and vote for a bill to reopen the government.

Four Democrats voted with Republicans in the House Thursday to fund the Homeland Security Department through September.

Depends, I doubt Mullin is much of an improvement.

1. He seems like the kind of person to agree to changes and then refuses to make them once he has a budget.

There isn't an ounce of honesty or integrity in this whole administration.

2. I would assume

that Democrats still want the proposed changes to how ICE operates before voting to reopen DHS? Just changing the leadership of DHS isn't going to be good enough- or at least it shouldn't be.......
