DHS Secretary Kristi Noem defended FEMA's response to Texas flooding, calling Democrat criticism politically motivated as the agency deployed over 700 workers within hours.

A New York Times report found thousands of calls to FEMA went unanswered after the Department of Homeland Security laid off call center workers.

Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem tells Meet the Press “there’s not” any chance she will resign, despite calls from some Democrats to step down over her handling of the federal response to the deadly Texas flood.
