Former Homeland Security Secretary and noted slayer of puppies Kristi Noem is drawing criticism after reports that, nearly two months after her firing, she appears to still be living in government housing typically reserved for top Coast Guard leadership. According to U.S. Coast Guard officials and several sources, Noem was seen using government housing on Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB), and residing in a housing unit "typically designated for the commandant of the Coast Guard," The Wall Street Journal reported. "Hello, [U.S. Coast Guard], we'd like to report a squatter," reads a social media post from House Homeland Security Committee Democrats, published Friday on X.


U.S. General Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, confirmed in an April 30 congressional hearing that Russia is supporting Iran in the current war with the United States. Russia has allegedly provided intelligence and weapons to Iran since the launch of the U.S.-Israeli war. U.S. media has reported that Russia has helped Iran target U.S. military assets in the Middle East, though the White House has downplayed the significance of Russia's support. "There's no question that Vladimir Putin's Russia is taking serious action to undermine our efforts for success in Iran," Republican Senator Roger Wicker asked. "Is there any question about that?" "There's definitely some action there," Caine responded. The general said Russia had undertaken "actions and activities" but declined to get into specifics given the public nature of the hearing.
