Kristi Noem, the Secretary of Homeland Security, made significant headlines recently by canceling over $2.7 million in grants to Harvard University. The decision was based on her assertion that the university's leadership and ideology undermine America's values and security. Specifically, one grant labeled conservatives as "far-right dissidents," while another funded public health initiatives seen as contrary to American interests. This move aligns with broader efforts by the administration to scrutinize and potentially revoke tax-exempt status for institutions deemed radical.Secretary Noem also made news for the relaunch of the Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement (VOICE) office. Originally established in 2017, the office was shuttered by the previous administration and is now being reinstated to provide support and resources to victims of crimes committed by illegal aliens. This initiative aims to bolster law enforcement's ability to address immigration-related crimes and assist affected families.In a personal incident, Secretary Noem's purse was stolen at a Washington, D.C., restaurant on Easter night.
