DHS Inspector General Report Blocked After Reaching Noem

Department of Homeland Security inspector general report was reclassified and blocked from release after reaching Kristi Noem.
TSA full-body scanners cannot scan shoes, creating a screening gap.
Noem ended routine shoe removal to speed TSA lines and reduce delays.
Noem's office denied blocking the report, claiming vulnerabilities were fixed.
Critics accuse Noem of politicizing security by publishing secret facility photos and suspending TSA PreCheck.
White House officials were briefed on the report, leading to controversy over DHS oversight.
