    Kristi Noem has been licking boots hard the last few years but doubled her efforts in licking boots this past year. The other day Pine Ridge – the Oglala Sioux Tribe (Oyate) reservation banned her from entering because of her “border invasion” remarks. her response was essentially that she thinks it is bad that they brought politics into a discussion regarding federal laws…

    She also started the “Meth. We’re on it.” marketing campaign for $1.4 million, I guess, against the meth problem in South Dakota and kept using the hashtag. She gave a GW Bush-esque response about it.

    She’s very divisive and definitely not diplomatic. I guess we will see if she Laura Boeberts her way out of the graces of her constituents.

      “why are you bringing politics into this discussion of politics!?” On the one hand i feel like being human is sort of inherently a bad thing, on the other these ‘people’ (for lack of a better term) are proof that you can be even less than human.
