Corey Lewandowski, the unpaid adviser to outgoing Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, is unlikely to return to the White House once he leaves his post this month after generating various controversies over the last year, according to a new report.

While serving as Noem’s unpaid right-hand-man, Lewandowski reportedly amassed enormous power; able to fire DHS employees, sign-off on contracts over $100,000 and even elevate people, such as Gregory Bovino, the Border Patrol leader, to a senior position, those familiar with the situation told the New York Times.

A recent NBC News report has accused Lewandowski of seeking payments from potential contractors while serving as a top aide to Noem, claims which he has previously denied.

Those reports about Lewandowski’s role, as well as speculation about the extent of his relationship with Noem, allegedly frustrated President Donald Trump. While Lewandowski has a long history of working alongside the president, unnamed sources told the New York Times that he’s on “precarious grounds” with Trump. “All personnel decisions are made by the White House,” Lewandowski told the New York Times in a statement.

He's not going anywhere. This report is propaganda. He's one of DJ's best buds.

He and DJ are probably yucking it up laughing about how they (literally and figuratively) screwed Ice Barbie.

Don't believe the hype. Now more than ever.
