Head of the US Secret Service Randolph ‘Tex’ Alles has been asked to leave as part of President Donald Trump’s apparent shake-up of the Department of Homeland Security. More DHS officials are reportedly on the way out as well.
Alles has been asked to leave on Monday, a number of mainstream US media outlets reported citing anonymous administration officials. Unconfirmed reports citing the same anonymous sources also say that United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) director Francis Cissna and DHS General Counsel John Mitnick will be asked to leave as well.
DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen suddenly resigned on Sunday, shortly after returning from a trip to the US-Mexico border with Trump. Kevin McAleenan, the current US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) commissioner, was named as her acting replacement.
