USA's præsident Donald Trump afskedigede DHS-minister Kristi Noem den 5. marts 2026.

Præsident Donald Trump annoncerede afskedigelsen af DHS-minister Kristi Noem torsdag den 5. marts 2026, hvilket markerede et betydeligt skifte i hans administration. Noem havde været det offentlige ansigt og håndhæveren af Trumps hårde linje i indvandringspolitikken og havde vundet hans ros for sin loyalitet på trods af tiltagende kritik fra inden for det Republikanske Parti. Trump, kendt for at modstå eksternt pres fra Demokraterne og medierne, holdt fast ved Noem, indtil misnøjet i GOP nåede sit højdepunkt. Indtil da var ingen regeringsmedlemmer blevet fyret i hans anden embedsperiode, hvilket understregede hans præference for trofaste allierede. Trækket fremhæver interne republikanske dynamikker og rejser spørgsmål om fremtidig stabilitet i centrale administrationsposter. Yderligere udviklinger, herunder Noems næste opgave og nominering af efterfølger, er dækket i denne serie.
