FEMA chief given lie detector test after leak of private meeting
The Department of Homeland Security tested acting Administrator Cameron Hamilton shortly after he met with DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.
The test was given to FEMA acting Administrator Cameron Hamilton after he met March 25 with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski, an adviser to President Donald Trump, those people said. The test was given within two days of the meeting and cleared Hamilton.
DHS acknowledged the test in an email.
“Under Secretary Noem’s leadership, DHS is unapologetic about its efforts to root out leakers that undermine national security. We are agnostic about your standing, tenure, political appointment or status as a career civil servant — we will track down leakers and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law,” Homeland Security Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin wrote.
