Kristi Noem Forces FEMA Director To Take Polygraph Amid Hunt for ‘Leakers’

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem ordered the acting director of FEMA to undergo a polygraph examination last month as part of an aggressive internal investigation into leaks within the agency.

According to a Friday report from Politico, DHS confirmed that FEMA Acting Administrator Cameron Hamilton took the lie detector test on March 27 — just two days after a private meeting with Noem and Trump confidante Corey Lewandowski.

The meeting, which was held on March 25, focused on dramatically downsizing or potentially eliminating the Federal Emergency Management Agency altogether.

Details of the meeting were soon leaked, prompting a response from Noem.

Hamilton, a former Navy SEAL appointed by President Donald Trump to lead FEMA on an interim basis, agreed to the polygraph to determine whether he was behind the leak.

According to Politico, Hamilton passed the examination.
