Wastrel

Very apt description of Kristi Noem in this post:

There is a cosplaying, ignorant wastrel named Kristi Noem heading the Department of Homeland Security. Because of huge ICE expenditures, she blew through her budget months early and had to cancel contracts, including those hiring handlers of emergency FEMA calls after the deadly Texas floods. Her photo ops before prisoners at CECOT and excitement over “Alligator Alcatraz” confirm her casual cruelty to the public, while her department’s defiance of direct court orders, including to turn planes bearing immigrants around and land them back in the U.S., are now the subject of federal district court investigations.
