Kristi Noem is apparently a terrible boss & can’t find anyone to work for her
@Jason_Aldean pic.twitter.com/umJ8qFvy2oAccording to a damning new report published by South Dakota News Watch, Noem’s office has been in “upheaval” since she was first sworn in back in January 2019.In just four and a half years, she’s cycled through a whopping five chiefs of staff.
Her last one, Mark Miller, quit last month and she still hasn’t found a replacement for him.Miller left Noem’s office to return to his former employer, Pacific Legal Foundation, a conservative nonprofit dedicated to “defending and promoting individual and economic freedom”.His departure came less than a month after Noem’s deputy chief of staff, Rachel Oglesby, who was largely seen as Miller’s eventual replacement, also quit for a gig at the America First Policy Institute, which was founded in 2021 to promote Donald Trump‘s agenda and is largely funded by the ex-president’s Save America PAC.Other members of Noem’s cabinet to leave in recent months are Steve Westra, who served as her Economic Development Commissioner; Joan Adam, who acted as Health Secretary; Tiffany Sanderson, Education Secretary; and Laurie Gill, Social Services Secretary.All four of them quit in the last year.But it’s not just people who work in Noem’s office who seemingly want nothing to do with her.
