Noem, a farmer and rancher by trade who was there to discuss the 2026 DHS budget, got 20 words into her response before Hassan ... and others in the liberal media will absolutely never admit.

Josh Campbell told CNN anchor Kasie Hunt on Thursday that the incident was “neither the fault nor the responsibility of DHS Secretary Noem.”

The mayor denounced the forcible removal of Sen. Alex Padilla from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's press conference earlier in the day.

If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question … you can only imagine what they’re doing to farmworkers, to cooks, to day laborers,” Padilla said.

A reporter asked Mexico's president whether she had received an apology from Kristi Noem after the U.S. official accused her of encouraging "violent protests" in Los Angeles.

Politicians took to social media to react after the California senator was nearly tackled to the ground for interrupting the briefing to speak to Noem about the ongoing ICE raids in Los Angeles.

During his most recent episode of the “Stephen A. Smith Show,” the commentator on Thursday night came to the defense of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, after Sen. Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) was forcibly removed and handcuffed during her press conference in Los Angeles on protests against immigration raids.

Noem threatened Biden for considering activating the Guard in Texas over governor's objections, but praises Trump for doing it in California.

Notably, the former South Dakota governor opposed the idea of the White House federalizing her state's National Guard just a year ago.
