Corey Lewandowski out at DHS after rumored affair partner Kristi Noem is fired by Trump

Source: Independent

Kristi Noem’s top adviser, Corey Lewandowski, is out at the Department of Homeland Security, according to MS Now.

President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that Senator Markwayne Mullin will be replacing Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary at the end of this month. Noem had faced heightened scrutiny in recent weeks, including over her relationship with Lewandowski, who serves as a special government employee.

It has long been rumored that Noem and Lewandowski, who are both married, have engaged in an affair. They have repeatedly denied the allegation, which Noem has called a “disgusting lie.”

When asked at a House hearing Wednesday if she ever had “sexual relations” with Lewandowski, Noem accused lawmakers of spreading “tabloid garbage.”

I figured man-sluttery was A-OK in rump world. I still look for the man-slut to find a salaried position with less prominence.

Former Secretary Noem has been named United States Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas - an initiative to bring the hard-right leaders of the Western Hemisphere into one group. He will go there with her.
