President Donald Trump on Thursday reassigned Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and said he would nominate Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin to replace her. Trump said Noem would serve as "Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas," a new Western Hemisphere security initiative. Audrey Fahlberg, political reporter for National Review, joins LiveNOW from FOX’s Christina Evans to discuss the move and what it could mean for the Department of Homeland Security.

President Donald Trump reacted on Tuesday after newly released photos appeared to show the husband of former Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem cross-dressing in private messages to a number of women.

The images were allegedly part of a trove of hundreds of messages sent between Noem's husband, Bryon, and three women, obtained by The Daily Mail.

The father of three appeared to be pictured in hot pink underwear, wearing a skin-colored shirt with large, faux breasts worn underneath.

The New York Post reported the photos were taken while acting out a "bimbofication" fetish, which focuses on hypersexual, exaggerated physical appearances.

Another image appeared to show Bryon Noem posing with large, fake breasts in a tight light blue T-shirt while making a kissy face.

Trump told the Daily Mail he did not know about the photos and was surprised the Noem family confirmed their authenticity.

"They confirmed it? Wow, well, I feel badly for the family if that's the case, that's too bad," Trump told the outlet. "I haven't seen anything. I don't know anything about it. That's too bad, but I just know nothing about it."

It is unclear if anyone else inside the administration knew about the alleged photographs.
