Kirstjen Nielsen Is Leaving the Trump Administration [UPDATED]
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen is expected to step down today, though it’s unclear whether her resignation will be voluntarily or something undoubtedly more ham-fisted.
Nielsen has held her post since December 2017, which makes her something of an old-timer in an ever-rotating cast of cabinet members. Rumors of Nielson’s departure have swirled for months now, though multiple reports indicate that as of 5 p.m. EST, that resignation is being tendered (extracted?) as we speak/type. (You speak; I type. Although I’m happy to trade.)
