Kristi Noem has been slammed for enacting disaster relief reforms which officials say hobbled FEMA at the crucial moment after the Texas floods. Calls for her to resign are growing as the death toll continues to mount and 160 people remain missing after the Guadalupe River burst its banks,

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem gave an update on the search and recovery efforts in Texas after deadly flash flooding killed more than 100 people.

San Antonio anchor Stephania Jimenez fumed Saturday over a press conference that featured Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott thanking each other and President Donald Trump instead of giving immediate updates on the lethal floods in central Texas.

Republicans, such as Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, have largely responded to the crisis by demonstrating loyalty to Donald Trump and praising him for his federal aid. However, disgruntled citizens have called out Noem for her performative empathy toward the people in crisis.

Asked shortly after the disaster whether he still intended to phase out the Federal Emergency Management Agency, President Trump said it wasn’t the right time to talk about it.

Kristi Noem is being berated online after she asked her followers for their thoughts on potential governor's portraits while rescue efforts in Texas continue.
