Noem just wrapped. Unclear if she received word of her firing beforehand. She wasn't asked as it does not appear there were reporters in the audience. She was not speaking like someone who knew she had been fired.

Unclear if reporters are in this audience. Appears to be the Sergeant Benevolent Association Major Cities Conference in Nashville. So far questioners seem to be local officials.
