Tom Homan has nothing but praise for Kristi Noem. The border czar recently met with the South Dakota governor at Mar-a-Lago to discuss strategies for tackling the migrant crisis. Following their meeting, the former police officer is “very confident” that Donald Trump's pick for Homeland Security secretary will do a “great job.”

“I briefed her on many of my plans and my thoughts,” Homan said of his recent discussion with Noem in an interview with the New York Post. While he did not reveal what exactly they spoke about, he explained that “she [Noem] understands” the country's border crisis and migrant issues.

Homan went on to say that the 53-year-old “asked very, very detailed questions,” adding, “so she understands it.” “She has a few ideas of her own I think will add to what we’re trying to do. So I think she’s a fast learner and she’s engaged 100%, I think she’s a great pick,” the immigration official continued.
Last month, the president-elect tapped Noem to serve as the secretary of Department of Homeland Security (DHS). “Kristi has been very strong on Border Security. She was the first Governor to send National Guard Soldiers to help Texas fight the Biden Border Crisis, and they were sent a total of eight times,” Trump said in a statement announcing his decision.
