Hi there, everybody, 4 o'clock in New York.

So there are two theories for what's happening today.

Either DHS secretary, Christy Knoem, is so bad at her job that even Donald Trump,

Donald Trump 2.0, said, you're fired. Or, or, her firing could be a

distraction from the increasingly unpopular and controversial war in Iran, which, come to think of it,

could have been an effort to distract from the disastrous and bungled cover-up of the Epstein files, their partial

release might have actually been a distraction from the cruel and deeply unpopular conduct of

federal agents on the streets of Minneapolis, carrying out Donald Trump's mass deportation campaign

and killing two U.S. citizens in the process. Now, whether Trump's distracting from a distraction

that was a distraction of an unpopular distraction,

we'll let you decide.

But here's the news.

Christine Nome has been fired from her position

as the country's secretary of Homeland Security.

In tried and true Trumpian fashion,

Donald Trump announced her firing on true social,

adding that she's been appointed special envoy to the

shield of the Americas, a position no one had heard of until a couple hours ago.

Corey Lewandowski is also out at DHS. As news of her firing was breaking, Kristy Noem was

speaking. There she is. She was speaking to law enforcement, and it wasn't clear at all if she knew she'd been fired,

as while she was talking, she talked about meetings she was going to have in the coming days as DHS secretary.

Awkward.
