Trump unloads on ‘radical left’ as he stands by Kristi Noem amid immigration enforcement unrest
This feels like a quiet policy shift.
President Donald Trump offered renewed support for Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem on Friday, saying she has done a "great job" amid ongoing nationwide immigration protests.
In a lengthy post on Truth Social, Trump accused "radical left" activists of targeting Noem while touting what he described as historic gains in border security and public safety under his administration.
"The Radical Left Lunatics, Insurrectionists, Agitators, and Thugs, are going after Kristi Noem, the Secretary of Homeland Security, because she is a woman, and has done a really GREAT JOB!" Trump wrote Friday evening.

Several prominent Democrats have recently called for her removal as DHS secretary, and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., along with other House Democrats, are threatening impeachment proceedings if Noem is not "fired immediately."
Republican Sens. Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska have also publicly urged her removal.

On Friday, several University of Minnesota student groups led what they dubbed a "National Shutdown" in protest of federal immigration enforcement, with activists joining from across the country.
Trump accused Democrats of using protests as a distraction from what he alleged were widespread financial crimes involving billions of dollars in public funds.
"Republicans, don’t let these Crooked Democrats, who are stealing Billions of Dollars from Minnesota, and other Cities and States from all over the Country, push you around," he wrote. "They are using this aggressive protest SCAM to obfuscate, camouflage, and hide their CRIMINAL ACTS of …
