kristi noem is autopsying before the senate homeland security committee this morning. border security and president-elect trump's mass deportation plans are likely to take center stage. no o nomeo say in part securing our home slansd a serious trust that must be relentlessly pursued andner taken foregranted. being safe at border is american right. yet americans feel less safe than they have in decades. president-elect trump is going to change that nome's hearing comes a day after trump's nominee swore in doug burgum and scott bessent respectively appear before their respective anies. burgum promised to carry out drill more way to counter oil demand from autocratic nations like russia and iran president trump's energy dominance can be america's big stick. prosperity and world peace. the department of interior in cooperation with the u.s. congress, this committee and the states will play a pivotal role in achieving the outcomes to make the world safer and america even better for our children, our grandchildren, and generations to come. >> bessent meantime says one of his biggest priorities is extending trump's tax cuts. >> this is the single most important economic issue of the

kristi noem went before the senate homeland security committee today and said president trump will ultimately be responsible for the border. but the question is who will make decisions, whether it be nomeho trump appointed to be border czar. homan has said he will be in charge of the border. noem was asked about how exactly these two are going to figure out who's in charge. here's what she had to say. >> tom and i work very well together and talk and communicate all the time, and we'll be working together on a daily basis when we're in our positions under the new administration. and, and i would say there's no authorities being planned to be taken away from the department or, or myself if i'm in the role. >> and those questions came from democratic senator andy kim, who raised the question because he says it's important for the committee to be able to hold someone accountable. they can't call homan before their committee for oversight questions or get answers from him like they could from homeland security, because their committee has jurisdiction over dhs. so there are a lot of questions about how all this will play out and who will ultimately be accountable. >> very interesting. juli
