“As part of that recovery, I have to abide by certain limitations on my activity in order to allow my back to heal properly. In the short term, this will include amount of standing I can do and the amount of travel that I can partake,” she said then.

Noem has been in the news lately over the antics of Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla of California, who interrupted her news conference Thursday in Los Angeles and lunged toward the podium.

“We were conducting a press conference to update everyone on the enforcement actions that are ongoing to bring peace to the city of Los Angeles,” Noem told Fox News.

“This man burst into the room, started lunging toward the podium, interrupting me, and elevating his voice, and was stopped,” she recounted

“Coming into a press conference like this is political theater. It’s wrong and it does a disservice to this country and the people who live here,” the secretary argued.
