ICE Barbie’s Secret Mile-High Romance Uncovered
The recent news surrounding Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski has raised eyebrows across Washington, D.C. Their alleged romance has captured public interest, particularly given the luxury jet they have been using for travel.
Luxury Jet and Its Purpose
Noem and Lewandowski are reportedly traveling on a Boeing 737 MAX, which has been leased by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The jet, earmarked for “high-profile deportations,” is expected to be purchased by Noem’s department for approximately $70 million—a figure significantly higher than other planes being acquired for the same purpose.
- Jet Model: Boeing 737 MAX
- Estimated Cost: $70 million
- Purpose: High-profile deportations
Romantic Allegations
The relationship between Noem and Lewandowski has been described as the “worst-kept secret” in D.C. Despite both denying romantic involvement, sources suggest that their relationship is well-known among peers. A New York magazine exposé last September remarked on the widespread belief that they were romantically linked.
Noem, aged 54, and Lewandowski, 52, are both married and have a combined total of seven children.
Traveling Complications
Beyond the luxury jet, the pair has traveled together on multiple occasions. In one incident, Lewandowski had to fire a Coast Guard pilot when Noem switched planes due to maintenance issues, although the pilot was later reinstated.
DHS Response to Allegations
When confronted about the jet’s use, a DHS spokesperson stated that both Cabinet-level travel and deportations were occurring. However, the imperatives behind their travel raise questions. Critics argue that the commercial planes are less economical than military options, which the DHS typically employs for deportation missions.
Future Implications
The dynamics within the DHS appear to be tense, particularly regarding Noem’s interactions with President Donald Trump’s appointed border czar, Tom Homan. Past disagreements over deportation strategies have created friction, underscoring the complex political landscape both figures navigate.
This unfolding situation around Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski continues to attract attention, raising questions about accountability and ethical conduct in public office.
