ICE Barbie's Mile-High Privacy With Alleged Lover Exposed

Kristi Noem and rumored lover Corey Lewandowski are traveling through the skies in a luxury jet meant for “high-profile deportations”—complete with a private cabin in back. The 737 MAX airliner is being leased by the Department of Homeland Security, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday, but Noem’s department is expected to buy it for about $70 million.

That amount, according to the outlet, is twice as much as all seven other planes that DHS is buying for deportations.Lewandowki and Noem have each denied having a relationship, which is reportedly the "worst-kept secret" in the capital. Referred to jokingly by DHS staff as Noem’s “big, beautiful jet,” the airplane was earmarked for “high-profile deportations,” people familiar with the matter said.

Noem, 54, and Lewandowksi, her 52-year-old aide, have for years been rumored to be in a relationship. It was “widely understood” that they were romantically involved, according to a New York magazine exposé last September. A FEMA official called it the “worst-kept secret in D.C.”

The Daily Beast’s The Swamp newsletter reported last February that Lewandowski had been spotted at Noem’s Washington, D.C., home taking out her trash. Each has denied having an affair. Noem and Lewandowski are each married, with three and four children, respectively.

about the blanket being left on board. Discovery of residual DNA could be of interest to their respective spouses and many others.

If this is common public knowledge and has been going through the rumor mill for years... why are they both still married?
