(StraightShooterNews.com) – Revealing bombshell plans to prioritize America’s safety, President Donald Trump’s pick for Homeland Security Secretary has vowed to combat domestic terrorism.
During her confirmation hearing, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem outlined a bold vision for interagency collaboration to dismantle Joe Biden’s open border policies.
She specifically called for a closer relationship between DHS, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the FBI, and the CIA.
Noem’s testimony before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committee highlighted her dedication to securing borders and combating domestic terrorism.
“I&A [the Office of Intelligence and Analysis] has some interaction, but not enough,” she said.
Noem added, “We also need to have CISA have interaction with the FBI, CIA to make sure they’re working together to stop these types of threats and identify when they’re growing among our citizens.”
She did not mince words when identifying the southern border as the primary threat to homeland security.
She pointed out the alarming fact that under the Biden administration, 382 individuals on the terrorist watch list have crossed the border illegally.
This revelation underscores the urgent need for stricter border control and vetting processes.
In a clear departure from the current administration’s lax policies, Noem announced plans to eliminate the controversial CBP One app.
Implemented by the Biden administration, this app has been criticized for enabling faster processing of illegal aliens into the country.
Noem assured Senator James Lankford that while critical data would be maintained, the app itself would be scrapped.
“Yes, senator, We will eliminate the CBP One app — maintain some of the data that’s in it that’s critical to knowing who’s in our country — but that app will no longer be in use,” Noem said.
Noem’s commitment to interagency collaboration in fighting domestic terrorism was evident throughout her hearing.
he emphasized the need for resources, coordination, and collaboration across all levels of government to effectively address threats.
This approach aligns with President-elect Trump’s vision of a strong, unified national security apparatus.
While Democrats predictably attempted to shift focus away from the border crisis, Noem stood firm in her assessment.
She reiterated the importance of securing borders against illegal trafficking and immigration, positioning these issues as central to her role as potential DHS Secretary.
Noem declared:
“As we face the evolving threats of the 21st century, the mission and the success of DHS is more critical than ever. We must be vigilant and proactive and innovative to protect the homeland. The challenges in front of us are extremely significant, and we must secure our borders against illegal trafficking and immigration.”
Noem’s track record speaks volumes about her commitment to border security.
As governor of South Dakota, she took decisive action by sending the state’s National Guard to assist with border security at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Supporters argue that this hands-on experience uniquely qualifies her to implement Trump’s strong immigration and border policy changes.
If confirmed, Noem will play a key role in reversing the damage done by the Biden administration’s immigration policies.
The Trump team plans to enforce stricter border rules, reduce refugee admissions and increase deportations, crucial steps in restoring law and order to America’s immigration system.
Noem’s confirmation would also mark a return to common-sense leadership at DHS due to her vision and firm stance on border security.
