JD Vance hurls Kristi Noem under the bus for FEMA failures: 'We needed new leadership'

Vice President JD Vance insisted that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was losing her job because she had a "great opportunity" to serve in the Shield of Americas, a multinational military cooperation initiative recently dreamed up by President Donald Trump. He also said that the agency "needed new leadership" due to failures at FEMA.

During a speech in North Carolina on Friday, a local reporter pressed the vice president over the administration's slow rollout of FEMA aid to the state, which is governed by a Democrat.
