Breaking: Trump to Nominate Chad Wolf for Department of Homeland Security Secretary

President Trump announced on Tuesday that he would nominate acting Department of Homeland Security secretary Chad Wolf to fill the role in a full-time capacity.

“I am pleased to inform the American Public that Acting Secretary Chad Wolf will be nominated to be the Secretary of Homeland Security,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “Chad has done an outstanding job and we greatly appreciate his service!”
