Noem dodges when asked under oath about alleged affair with underling

Source: Raw Story · Bias: Far Left

Summary

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem faced a direct question under oath Wednesday about long-rumored allegations of an affair with Trump administration aide Corey Lewandowski. Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-CA) questioned why Lewandowski held such a prominent position despite serious concerns: previous misconduct, lack of DHS experience, physical battery allegations, sexual harassment, carrying a loaded gun into a federal building, and illegal Venezuelan lobbying. When asked point-blank if she had sexual relations with Lewandowski, Noem refused to directly deny it. Instead, she called the question "tabloid garbage" and became defensive, describing Lewandowski as a special White House employee with no decision-making authority. Kamlager-Dove emphasized the question concerned judgment, not personal matters. Social media users noted Noem's non-denial as conspicuous, with commenters stating she never said "no."Watch the video below. Your browser does not support the video tag.
