Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem has been at the center of a series of major policy decisions and congressional hearings in recent days, reflecting the administration's aggressive approach to border security and immigration enforcement. In her first 100 days as secretary, Noem has overseen a dramatic reduction in border crossings, with daily encounters reportedly plunging by 95 percent and migration through the Darien Gap nearly eliminated. The Department of Homeland Security has arrested over 168,000 individuals who entered the U.S. illegally in 2025, including more than 600 members of the Tren de Aragua criminal organization. Noem attributes these results to a combination of stricter enforcement, a nationwide public messaging campaign warning would-be migrants and criminals, and new partnerships aimed at cutting off taxpayer funding for organizations that facilitate illegal immigration.

During a recent House Homeland Security Committee hearing, Noem faced sharp criticism from Democrats, who described the current era as a "sad day for DHS." Lawmakers pressed her for details about the number of undocumented immigrants released into the country during the Biden administration, due process for detainees under expedited removal, and her stance on constitutional protections like habeas corpus. Noem maintained that all ICE arrests are handled within the tools Congress has provided and emphasized her department's focus on criminals that threaten public safety and national security. She also clarified that decisions on suspending habeas corpus remain the president's prerogative, not hers.

One of Noem's most consequential recent actions was announcing the termination of Temporary Protected Status for Afghanistan, effective July 14, 2025. Justifying this move, Noem cited improved security and economic conditions in Afghanistan and asserted that allowing Afghan nationals to remain in the U.S. no longer serves the national interest. She also noted that some recipients of TPS had been under investigation for fraud and threats to public safety. This decision followed an interagency review and drew attention for returning TPS to its "original temporary intent."

On the enforcement front, Noem's DHS has requested the Department of Justice pursue alien smuggling charges and the death penalty in a high-profile case involving alleged smugglers connected to multiple deaths. This move underscores her commitment to a tough stance against human trafficking and signals a willingness to use the full range of legal penalties available to deter future crimes.

Noem has further reshaped the department by ending several Obama-era programs, including the Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities grant program, which she labeled as wasteful. Nearly a billion dollars redirected from that program now supports the Disaster Relief Fund. She also ended collective bargaining for TSA security officers, arguing that this would better align the agency with its security mission.

As the department moves forward, Noem is working closely with the administration and Congress on the upcoming DHS budget, focusing on enhancing border technology, supporting local communities ahead of major international events like the World Cup and Olympics, and reinforcing the department's core mission areas, from cybersecurity to disaster preparedness. Her leadership style and decisions are drawing both strong support from allies who see a return to strict enforcement and pointed opposition from critics alarmed by the scope and speed of her reforms.
