DHS Secretary Noem’s “Suck It” Sparks Outrage And Applause After ACLU Lawsuit Dismissal
Story by Mike Jenkins • 14h

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem ignited a firestorm Thursday with a blunt two-word message—"Suck it"—posted on her official DHS social media account.

The remark followed the voluntary dismissal of a high-profile lawsuit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) challenging the planned transfer of detained illegal immigrants to Guantánamo Bay.
 
The lawsuit, which named Homeland Security officials as defendants, was dropped after several plaintiffs were deported and others declined to proceed with the case.
 

The ACLU had initially argued that the Trump administration lacked the legal authority to send migrants to the U.S. military prison in Cuba, asserting such actions would violate federal law and the Constitution.
