The Homeland Security secretary took heat over a move that critics described as "straight out of the Wile E. Coyote playbook."

Early Tuesday, the office of California Governor Gavin Newsom, who has sparred with Trump over his immigration crackdown, mocked the president on X, writing: “Forget the southern border, the strongest wall Trump’s ever built is his bronzer line.”

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem announced the entire southern border wall will be painted black as part of the administration’s efforts to increase the effectiveness of the wall.
