It appears that nothing can come between this embattled duo, even amidst ongoing controversies. Recently ousted from the Department of Homeland Security, Corey Lewandowski was spotted alongside his alleged partner, Kristi Noem, during one of her initial international engagements for the State Department.

Photos publicized by the Guyanese government on Wednesday capture Lewandowski clad in a dark suit with a salmon-colored tie, maintaining a stoic demeanor beside Noem. The pair were seen engaging with the President of Guyana and other key officials from the South American nation.

This bold appearance in Guyana has sparked a mix of outrage and disbelief among some of Noem’s previous colleagues at DHS. Observers were quick to comment on the situation, with one DHS official humorously noting, “They just can’t quit each other.”

Meanwhile, another DHS official expressed bewilderment, questioning, “How is this guy doing State Department business?” The pairing continues to raise eyebrows as they navigate this new chapter on the international stage.

‘They just can’t quit each other,’ one DHS official told the Daily Mail. 

‘How is this guy doing state department business?’ another DHS official said, incredulously.

It is unclear if Lewandowski, who is facing multiple investigations for questionable contracts he helped negotiate at DHS, has landed any official job with the State Department.

But there he was this week, holding court with Noem in what appeared to be an official capacity.

The photos were released by the Guyanese government, showing Noem meeting with His President Irfaan Ali and Guyanese government officials to reaffirm the enduring US-Guyana partnership

Neither of their spouses were present, at least in the photos.

It was just a couple of weeks earlier that Noem was fired from DHS after being brutally grilled in Congress for her alleged affair with Lewandowski and their handling of a controversial $220 million DHS ad campaign.

The Daily Mail revealed Tuesday that Noem, Lewandowski and associates at Homeland Security face a new wide-ranging criminal investigation over the rewarding of billions of dollars in no-bid contracts.

The Homeland Security Inspector General has launched the investigation, sending notices to dozens of people involved in approving the contracts, including many in Noem’s inner-circle.

Those officials are being ordered to preserve all communications including documents, text messages, emails and phone records, multiple DHS officials tell the Daily Mail.

Then on Wednesday, Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee called for an investigation into allegations that DHS officials steered hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to politically connected firms through contracts. 

They also urged the committee to subpoena Lewandowksi — a ‘special government employee’ who served as Noem’s top advisor at DHS — for his central role in the spending.

News of Noem’s departure came March 5 after a tumultuous tenure.

She was re-assigned that same day to a lesser position as Special Envoy to The Shield of the Americas, a new White House security initiative.

Lewandowski, who followed her out the door, popped up later that same day at a counter-cartel conference hosted by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth in the US Southern Command headquarters in Doral, Florida.

‘Honored to be able to participate in the Americas Counter-Cartel Conference today with our Amazing @SecWar,’ Lewandowski posted on X. 

‘Thank you for bringing so many Western Hemisphere countries together to battle the Cartels!’

Neither he, Noem nor the State Department have posted any photos of him on the Guyana trip the following week.

Trump administration officials told The New York Times last week that Lewandowski, after being ejected from DHS, was ‘not expected’ to land another job in the administration.

It was the Office of the President of Guyana that outed Lewandowski, releasing footage of him flanking Noem at a conference table with president Irfaan Ali and other Guyanese government officials.

They were purportedly there to discuss joint efforts to disrupt cartel and transnational crime, strengthen border security, discourage illegal immigration and promote economic activity.

Noem, who was appointed Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas upon her firing from the DHS, was seen meeting with Costa Rica’s president Rodrigo Chaves on Monday 

Noem and Lewandowski – who have been rumored to have a romantic relationship despite both being married – are said to have maintained tight control over the approval of all six-figure contracts

‘Everybody here’s been so wonderful. Thank you for welcoming us.’

The probe into the pair comes just as Markwayne Mullin was sworn in alongside Trump at the White House on Tuesday afternoon, replacing Noem as Homeland Security Secretary. 

The DHS contracting process has come under public scrutiny in recent weeks over concerns about possible influence peddling and conflicts of interest.

Some DHS contractors told White House officials that Lewandowski allegedly solicited ‘pay to play’ fees in exchange for helping secure or expand contracts, a tactic sources told the Daily Mail was widely referred to as ‘the Lewandowski tax.’ 

Lewandowski, a former special government employee, has denied any wrongdoing.

Noem and Lewandowski maintained tight control over the approval of all six-figure contracts. Their insistence on sole authorization created months-long backlogs, delaying contracts tied to FEMA disaster relief and construction of Trump’s border wall.

But DHS sources tell the Daily Mail this also allowed the pair to circumvent standard oversight.

When contacted for a response on the investigation, Lewandowski replied, ‘Fake news.’
