The real reason ICE Barbie Noem was fired.
She could violate peoples' civil rights, injure and kill citizens for all Trump liked, but a crossdressing husband was unacceptable.
And she's a woman, so she was extra expendable.
The only way to keep a clearance with a secret like that...
Is for it not to be a secret.
This likely wasn't why she got the boot, but if her and her husband were unwilling to publicly disclose it, it should have prevented her from getting any kind of government position.
It's not about what he does behind closed doors, it's what they'd both do to keep the door closed.
The only way that isn't a security threat is doing it in the open.
