On March 5, President Trump is privately upset with Homeland Security Secretary Christy Noam after she testified to the Senate that he approved a two. $120 million ad campaign funded by taxpayers, the ads featured Noam prominently and aimed to encourage self deportations. During the hearing, Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana questioned her closely expressing doubt that Trump would greenlight such spending. Noam insisted the President knew about it and that they followed legal steps. Trump has reportedly reached out to several Republican senators asking if he should fire her. Sources say he's eyeing Senator Mark Wayne Mullen from Oklahoma as a possible replacement. A Homeland Security spokesperson pushed back, calling the campaign the most successful in U.S. history. They claim it led to 2.2 million illegal immigrants self-deporting, saving taxpayers over $39 billion compared to forced. While Trump has kept his cabinet mostly steady since taking office last year, this
