Gov. Kristi Noem nomination as DHS boss invites law-and-order praise

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is set to head the Department of Homeland Security, a move that has been welcomed by law-and-order advocates and southern border stakeholders. Noem’s nomination comes after President-elect Trump announced her as his choice on November 12, following a victory over Vice President Harris in the election.

Noem’s track record of sending National Guard Soldiers to assist Texas in combating the Biden Border Crisis has earned her praise from the Trump transition team. She is expected to work closely with ‘Border Czar’ Tom Homan to ensure the security of the American homeland against adversaries.

The issue of migrant crime has been central to Trump’s campaign, with a focus on securing the border and preventing criminals from entering the country. Arizona rancher, Jim Chilton, has witnessed the impact of illegal border crossings firsthand, with instances of violence and drug trafficking on his property. He emphasizes the need to finish the border wall and increase Border Patrol presence to curb criminal activities.

Similarly, Border Patrol agents like Hector Garza are eager for a supportive White House that prioritizes border security. Under the Biden-Harris administration, agents have faced challenges due to a lack of resources and an open border policy that allowed dangerous criminals to enter the country unchecked.

Noem’s nomination has been met with optimism from those who have long advocated for stronger border measures. Her commitment to securing the border and restoring safety to American communities aligns with the concerns of many who have been impacted by migrant crime.

The issue of migrant crime has gained national attention, with shocking slayings of women and girls occurring in various states during the Biden-Harris administration. President Trump has invited some of the victims’ families to attend his inauguration for a second term, highlighting the importance of addressing these crimes and ensuring the safety of all Americans.

Overall, Governor Kristi Noem’s nomination to head the Department of Homeland Security represents a step towards strengthening border security and protecting American communities from criminal threats. With the support of the Trump administration, law enforcement officials, and members of Congress, efforts to address migrant crime and secure the border are expected to intensify in the coming years.
