New photos obtained by PunchUp have revealed an inside look at the former private jet of now ousted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
The Substack from Daily Beast journalist and broadcaster Tom Latchem featured images of the $108 million Boeing 737 MAX, which has been given to first lady Melania Trump and other cabinet members.
The jet's price tag has been a question — and who is paying for it — after the Department of Homeland Security had previously reported it was estimated at $70 million. PunchUp sources have said it's actually valued at 54 percent more than what DHS had claimed.
The images of the plane's interior have revealed more information about what was inside the plane, which Noem reportedly flew in with her long-rumored lover and special government employee Corey Lewandowski, according to reports. It features brown shag carpets, a gray marble bathroom and a square toilet with a padded, cream-colored leather lid.
"You’d also have to ask why anyone would choose to spend such a staggering amount of money on a plane that looks like a ski chalet designed by the production team behind the Austin Powers movies," PunchUp reported. "Or, as one administration source told PunchUp: 'The plane’s ‘shagtastic’ interior resembles a 70s Motel 6 off the Jersey Turnpike.'"
