Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has sparked controversy by posting the message “Suck it” on her official social media account alongside a screenshot of a court filing confirming the voluntary dismissal of a lawsuit. The remark followed the ACLU’s dismissal of a lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump’s plan to transfer detained migrants to Guantánamo Bay. Critics have since criticized Noem’s leadership and her repeated focus on media engagement.

The lawsuit was dropped after several plaintiffs were deported or declined to continue. Critics have scrutinized Noem’s leadership under Trump, arguing that her media presence undermines her professional responsibilities.
