President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he’s replacing Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem with a Republican U.S. senator from Oklahoma.

Trump revealed his decision in a post on Truth Social, saying Sen. Markwayne Mullin will take over on March 31.

“The current Secretary, Kristi Noem, who has served us well, and has had numerous and spectacular results (especially on the Border!), will be moving to be Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas, our new Security Initiative in the Western Hemisphere we are announcing on Saturday in Doral, Florida. I thank Kristi for her service at ‘Homeland,'” Trump wrote.

The president’s announcement comes two days after Noem faced a grilling on Capitol Hill from both GOP members and Democrats. During that hearing, Noem defended DHS’s immigration enforcement tactics and pushed back against criticism from Democrats who say she wrongly disparaged Renee Good and Alex Pretti after they were killed by federal agents in Minneapolis.

The Lumber Exchange building in Minneapolis is set to change hands for a dollar this week, going to Kristi Oman—the same person who two years ago bought the Kickernick Building, another old downtown property, and transformed it into a hub for artists.

That, or something like it, is likely to be the fate of the 12-story Lumber Exchange building. In chats with Twin Cities Business, Oman mentioned she wants to keep the roughly 140-year-old, 225,569-square-foot space commercial (rather than making residencies out of it), converting it for artists and folks in the fashion industry.

The official sale price will be $20,001, Oman says. In addition to the $1 price tag, she must pay a $20,000 fee for taking the property off auction. Oman owns Space Unlimited, a Minneapolis real estate company specializing in restoration of historic buildings.
