Department of Homeland Security Has a New Leader
Mullin Over a Poem for Noem
Kristi Noem, once DHS queen, Rode high on border dreams so keen.
But hearings hit, ads went awry, Trump said, “Thanks, but say goodbye.”
Now she’s “Special Envoy” (fancy title, low key), Shield of the Americas—whatever that may be.
From cabinet star to side-stage gnome, Lying low in the garden, far from home.
Enter Markwayne, plumber turned pol, Oklahoma tough, Cherokee soul.
No more Noem, no more fuss, Mullin’s mulling over the DHS bus.
One steps down (gnome pun intended), The other’s stepping up, job extended.
Politics spins like a garden wheel— Kristi’s out, Markwayne’s the deal.
Gnome more drama?
We’ll see.

“President Trump announced today (March 5, 2026) that Kristi Noem is out as DHS Secretary, reassigned to a new ‘Special Envoy’ role while Sen. Markwayne Mullin takes the helm effective March 31. Amid controversies and that awkward Nashville speech overlap, we couldn’t resist a little poetic justice. Noem rhymes with gnome… and Mullin? Well, we’re mulling it over.”
The Story
Kristi Noem is No Longer DHS Head… Gnome More! 🧙♂️
President Trump just announced today (March 5, 2026) that Kristi Noem is out as Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. She’s being reassigned to a new role as “Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas” (details dropping Saturday in Doral, FL), while Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin steps in effective March 31.
The move follows weeks of controversy: bipartisan grilling in Congress over immigration enforcement mishaps (including fatal shootings in Minneapolis), a massive $220M ad campaign she claimed Trump approved (he says nope), funding fights leading to partial DHS shutdowns, and general leadership chaos.
Noem’s tenure was short and stormy—confirmed in early 2025, now sidelined after just over a year. Trump praised her “spectacular results on the border” in his Truth Social post, but the writing was on the wall after this week’s hearings.
And yes… Noem rhymes with gnome. So that’s our visual take on the “demotion”:
‘Well shoot’ is a nod to the dog she shot because it was a bad dog
