一周多前，一封看似印有国务院信头及印章的“官方声明”，被发布在克里斯蒂·诺姆的官方美洲之盾事务特使X账号和她的个人X账号上，内容涉及她担任美洲之盾事务特使任期结束一事。
两名知情人士告诉CNN，该信头并非真实文件，也并非国务院发布的官方声明。他们表示，国务院领导层所在的7楼办公区以及新闻办公室都没有人在这份声明发布在X平台之前见过它。
目前尚不清楚国务院是否会对诺姆采取任何行动。诺姆目前担任副国务卿克里斯·兰道的高级顾问。不过，一名消息人士告诉CNN，大家“对她试图伪造官方声明的做法感到不满”。尽管两名消息人士均表示，信头下方的声明内容属实，但他们反对的是其发布形式，以及该声明看似官方部门沟通文件却未获得领导层或新闻办公室授权的事实。
其中一名消息人士指出，只有国务院新闻办公室有权发布官方声明。
信头下方的声明内容与当时国务院官员就她的职务变动所透露的信息一致。
声明中写道：“美洲之盾事务特使一职本就是6个月任期。诺姆部长仍以高级顾问身份在国务院任职。”
CNN已向诺姆的代表询问是谁起草了这份声明，以及该声明是否获得授权。CNN同时也已向国务院就相关指控寻求置评。
周六，诺姆似乎是针对这份未经授权声明的报道，在她的个人X账号上发文称：“你们可能最近读到了一些‘假新闻’，但我很荣幸也很感激能继续推进特朗普总统的‘美国优先’议程，并致力于加强西半球的安全与合作。”
她写道：“还有重要工作要做，我会继续全力以赴！”
诺姆此前曾担任国土安全部部长，她的特使身份上月到期后，便低调转任高级顾问。当时一名国务院官员告诉CNN，她“继续负责美洲之盾相关事务”。美洲之盾是特朗普政府发起的联盟，旨在共同打击中美洲和南美洲的安全问题及贩毒集团。
在上个月联合国大会召开的美洲之盾领导人会议上，诺姆出席了会议并与场内领导人互动。唐纳德·特朗普总统称赞了她在该联盟所做的工作。
今年早些时候，特朗普因诺姆在国土安全部任职期间引发的多项争议，将她从内阁中免职。
据多名知情人士透露，司法部检察官目前正在调查国土安全部的合同涉嫌不当行为的指控，其中涉及诺姆的实际幕僚长科里·莱万多夫斯基的角色。
CNN曾报道，诺姆在国土安全部对合同的处理方式是她被免职的主要原因之一，尤其是她声称特朗普知晓一项以部长为核心的2.2亿美元广告宣传活动一事。
Kristi Noem’s ‘official statement’ on X wasn’t approved by officials, sources say

A little over a week ago, an “official statement,” appearing to be printed on State Department letterhead with its seal, was posted on Kristi Noem’s official special envoy X account and her own personal X account about the end of her tenure as an envoy to the Shield of Americas.
Two sources familiar with the matter told CNN that the letterhead was not real, and it was not an official statement on behalf of the Department. They said nobody on the seventh floor – where the State Department leadership sits – or in the press office saw the memo before it was posted on X.
It is unclear if the Department will take any action against Noem, who is now serving as a senior adviser to Deputy Secretary of State Chris Landau. However, one source told CNN that people “are not pleased she tried to pass off a fake statement.” Though both said the substance of the statement beneath the letterhead was accurate, they were objecting to the format and the fact it appeared to be an official department communication when it had not been authorized by leadership or the press office.
One of the sources noted that only the State Department press office puts out official statements.
The content of the statement beneath the letterhead was consistent with what State Department officials said at the time about her change of job.
“The Special Envoy to the Shield of the Americas role was always a six-month appointment,” it read. “Secretary Noem remains at the State Department as a Senior Advisor.”
CNN has asked a representative for Noem who drafted the statement and whether it was authorized. CNN also asked the State Department for comment on the allegations.
On Saturday, seemingly in response to the reports of the unauthorized statement, Noem posted on her personal X account, “You may have read some ‘Fake News’ lately, but I am honored and grateful to continue advancing President Trump’s America First agenda and working to strengthen security and cooperation across the Western Hemisphere.”
“There is important work to be done, and I remain committed to getting it done!” she wrote.
Noem, who previously served as Homeland Security Secretary, quietly moved into the senior adviser role after her special envoy status expired last month. A State Department official told CNN at the time that she “continues to work on the Shield of the Americas portfolio.” The Shield of the Americas is a coalition started by the Trump administration meant to jointly combat security issues and drug cartels in Central and South America.
At a meeting of the Shield of the Americas leaders at the UN General Assembly last month, Noem was present and mingling with the leaders in the room. President Donald Trump praised the work she was doing with the coalition.
Trump removed Noem from his Cabinet earlier this year after multiple controversies under her leadership at the Department of Homeland Security.
According to multiple people familiar, Justice Department prosecutors are now investigating allegations of contract misconduct at the Department of Homeland Security, including the role of Corey Lewandowski – Noem’s de facto chief of staff.
CNN has reported that Noem’s handling of contracts within DHS was one of the main issues behind her ouster, notably when she claimed that Trump knew of a $220 million ad campaign prominently featuring the secretary.
