Political circles in Washington were thrown into sudden intrigue after reports emerged that Corey Lewandowski could be leaving the Department of Homeland Security following the removal of Kristi Noem as secretary.
The longtime adviser to President Donald Trump had been working closely with Noem during her tenure, often described by insiders as her most influential strategist inside the agency. With Noem now gone and a leadership shake up underway, Lewandowski is widely expected to follow her out of the department, bringing an abrupt end to a controversial but powerful behind the scenes role.
