The reported use of a taxpayer-funded luxury jet by Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski is an outrageous misuse of public resources. At a time when Americans are struggling with rising costs, government officials should demonstrate restraint and accountability—not indulge in aircraft equipped with lavish amenities and private cabins. Claims that such travel is necessary for official duties do not justify the appearance of privilege and waste. Public service should never come with luxury perks funded by taxpayers. The Department of Justice and federal agencies must ensure strict oversight and restore trust by ending excessive and unnecessary spending.
