President Donald Trump dismissed his Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and announced his intention to nominate Oklahoma Republican Senator Markwayne Mullin as her successor.
Noem becomes the first Cabinet secretary to exit during Trump's second term, concluding a challenging period in which she managed immigration enforcement strategies that faced significant protests and legal challenges.
Many people on social media showed interest in knowing about Noem's family and wealth. Her net worth is estimated to be no less than $5 million, according to an analysis by Forbes that examined property records and financial disclosures.
Noem's portfolio includes mutual funds, index funds, exchange-traded funds, and retirement plans, valued between $174,000 and $560,000. Her assets also comprise cash savings that could reach up to $265,000, along with livestock and equipment estimated to be worth as much as $100,000.
Her husband, Bryon Noem, has a greater asset value, with investments in commercial real estate valued at up to $500,000 and an insurance brokerage named Noem Insurance, LLC, valued between $1 million and $5 million.
Noem earned a salary of $253,100 in 2026 as the head of Homeland Security, an increase from $250,600 in 2025. This amount was more than double her previous annual income of approximately $122,000 while serving as the governor of South Dakota.
