"Another unqualified person for a job they should never be in."

Starting his monologue, Kimmel compared it to the shocking Red Wedding from Game of Thrones and to must-see television. "Today we had a red wedding on that TV show. A shocking elimination on the Celebrity of President as Trump finally fired a member of his cabinet. This is the first one!" he said.

If you didn't know, Donald Trump announced on Thursday via Truth Social that the United States Secretary of Homeland Security would be stepping away from her role, and moving to "Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas" at the end of the month.

"I think I speak for all of us when I say we wish Kristi luck in her brand new, completely made-up job," Kimmel joked.
"You know the funniest thing would be? The funniest thing would be if they deport her to El Salvador," he continued.
Kimmel noted that Trump also announced Noem's replacement would be Oklahoma Senator Markwayne Mullin, a former MMA fighter and plumber. "According to White House staffers, Trump loves watching him on TV," Kimmel said. "And I agree. I love watching him on TV too — in the same way I loved watching Honey Boo Boo on TV."

Next, Kimmel dragged the Oklahoma senator by sharing a montage of his televised blunder. "We've seen a good bit of Senator Mullin over the past couple of years, and let's say just Markwayne is no Mark Twain," he said.
The late-night host then suggested that Noem's removal could signal that more Trump administration officials were on their way out, including the US Attorney General, the Director of the FBI, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, and also Pete Hegseth.
Piggybacking off Kimmel's ruthless read, YouTubers shared how they really felt about Noem's firing, her replacement by Senator Mullin, and the possibility of more Trump administration replacements. Here's what they're saying:

"Unqualified person being replaced by another unqualified person," one person wrote.
"Another unqualified person for a job they should never be in," someone else echoed.
This person said, "Replacing Kristi with markwayne is basically like sh!*ting your pants and then quickly running home to… change your shirt."
Another person said, "Every time trump replaces someone, it is NEVER an upgrade."
"Markwayne can't even put a sentence together...good lord, only the best in this administration," another user said.
This person described the administration as "A ship of fools, drilling a hole in the bottom to get the water out!"
And finally someone poetically said, "Spring is coming and the ICE is melting."
