Noem sent 3,000 officers to Minneapolis, where I call home.
In the span of seventeen days on her watch, two American citizens were killed by federal agents. Renee Good, a 37-year-old mother of three, and Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA.
Noem called Pretti, who’d been trying to help a woman being tormented by ICE, a terrorist.
Noem spent $220 million in taxpayer money on ads featuring herself.
She spent nearly another $300 million in border security funds on a luxury jet fleet.
Her own department’s Inspector General accused her of obstructing oversight, and even Republican senators have called her tenure a “disaster.”
But she wasn’t fired because people were killed and tortured.
She wasn’t fired because babies are actively in concentration camps.
She was fired for her mismanagement — for not doing things the way Trump wants things done.
The White House has made it abundantly clear: “The agenda will continue full force.”
Her replacement is to be Markwayne Mullin — a man Trump just called “a MAGA Warrior” who he says will pursue the agenda with “Wisdom and Courage.”
A MAGA warrior? We can’t consider Noem’s ouster a win, not even for a second.
