Beautiful Minister's Embarrassing Moment, Refusing to Answer Whether She Had an Affair with Her Assistant, Her Husband Behind Her Was Pale with Anger!
The UK's Daily Mail reported that on March 4th, U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem faced an embarrassing moment during a routine hearing. Democratic Congresswoman Sydney directly asked: "Did you have a sexual relationship with your assistant Lewandowski during your tenure as Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security?"
This question froze the atmosphere in the room. Noem refused to answer under oath. Her reason was firm: once under oath, lying would constitute perjury. She could only remain silent or refuse to answer, which is the optimal legal solution when she couldn't confirm what evidence the other party had, but it's obvious to everyone that this was a "default" or "guilty conscience." Moreover, her husband Brian witnessed the entire scene behind her. His face turned visibly pale.
Kristi Noem is not an ordinary official. She was promoted from the position of Governor of South Dakota to the high post of Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, and she is a prominent Republican figure known for her tough style and conservative stance. She almost became Trump's running mate in the presidential election.
The Department of Homeland Security has been facing complex border pressures after a series of killings of innocent people, and the secretary being involved in a scandal would inevitably divert her attention, even leading to internal chaos within the department, with people fearing they might become the next target of investigation. As expected, Trump quickly dismissed her, planning to have Mark Wayne Mullins replace her.
