The rumor all along was she was going to be Interior Secretary, but once the ND governor started nosing around, it seems he will get that job OR Secretary of Energy.
Tapping Noem for director of Homeland Security is so comical I had to read it a couple of times and check a couple of other websites, it’s true. She has to go thru Senate Confirmation which will be entertaining to watch her explain why she kills animals in a gravel pit. She is also certifiably the dumbest person on earth. What does a barrel roping snot from Castlewood know about Homeland Security? Nothing. Just like all other major policy she is clueless. The POSITIVE is if confirmed (that might come down to one vote) she will no longer be our Governor. And once she is driven out of DC with all the other Trump clowns, I doubt she can be reinstated. Then we get Larry who will probably appoint his son to throw stuff at people. Just like Palin (who I have compared Noem to for decades) she will fizzle out like a Prairie Dog fart.
Our still in bed, hungover, local reporters have yet to break the news, I’m sure they are busy chasing a food truck in Mobridge.
As for the Popular Vote and Trump, notice he only got 1 million more votes in 2024 compared to 2020, it is Harris who failed to get the 10 million votes that Biden got.
2016, Trump 63M, Clinton 66M
2020, Trump 74M, Biden 81M
2024, Trump 75M, Harris 71M
