Corey Lewandowski was ousted from the Trump administration after he was spotted on a tropical getaway with his alleged lover, fired Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. State Department officials briefed CBS News after the pictures were published by its embassy in Guyana said that it was not a State Department trip, suggesting that Noem essentially sneaked in a vast foreign tour under the radar of her new bosses.
U.S. and State officials also told CBS News that Lewandowski is not employed by the State Department and will not be in the future, including as a special government employee.
One source told the Post that Lewandowski quit because he didn't want to work at the State Department. However, two others told the outlet that Trump was forcing Lewandowski out after disapproving of contract decisions he made.
