Noem left her digs after Trump fired her from DHS in March and named her Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas, a Western Hemisphere security initiative — but it took her more than two months to make the move, MS NOW producer Steve Benen reported on Tuesday.

Noem was among several Trump cabinet members, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who have taken over residences normally used for high-ranking military officers, Benen noted. Her move into the Coast Guard home displaced Adm. Linda Fagan, the commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard and the first woman to lead a branch of the U.S. military — a fact that apparently "meant very little to the Republican White House", Benen said.

"Making matters worse, The Wall Street Journal reported a few weeks ago that Noem remained in the waterfront Coast Guard home for a month after her ouster from the Department of Homeland Security," Benen wrote.

"It took a while, but 'The Rachel Maddow Show' confirmed that Noem finally has exited Coast Guard housing, clearing the way for the current Coast Guard commandant, Adm. Kevin Lunday, to move in," Benen added.
