DHS Not Sure About Buying ICE Barbie’s Mile-High Jet Anymore

The Department of Homeland Security is reconsidering buying the luxury jet that outgoing Secretary Kristi Noem and rumored lover Corey Lewandowski used.

DHS, according to National Review, is discussing reevaluating its plan to buy the Boeing 737 MAX aircraft it is currently leasing for $70 million, which The Wall Street Journal reported last month. The news comes several days after President Donald Trump fired Noem, 54, with top aide Lewandowski, 52, exiting the department as well. Noem’s last day is March 31.

The discussions are “preliminary,” according to the report, with much depending on the confirmation of Trump’s chosen replacement for Noem, Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin. The White House’s Office of Management and Budget has yet to approve the purchase.
