Gov. Noem Going to Warzone at Southern Border
PIERRE, S.D. – Today, Governor Kristi Noem announced that she will be going to the warzone at the southern border to stand with Texas and the National Guard and tell them that the nation is with them. She made the announcement on “Hannity” on Fox News.
“This is about our Constitution. This is about us standing united… I’m going to be at the border tomorrow to tell the Texas National Guard… that we’re not only with them, that we have continued to be with them for the last several years. South Dakota has deployed our National Guard to support them and stand alongside them three separate times,” Governor Noem said on Hannity. “I’m so proud of what Texas is doing to defend itself. We’ll be right there beside them. We’ll do everything we can to make sure that this invasion stops.
Earlier today, Governor Noem joined 24 Republican governors in supporting Governor Abbott’s efforts to secure the Southern Border.
When Hannity asked if Governor Noem is willing to send South Dakota National Guard troops to the border, Governor Noem responded: “I already have three times… I am willing to send National Guard down there to stand alongside them. I want it to be different arrangements this time. If we’re going to enforce Texas law – and if I’m going to have the ability to use these soldiers in a way that’s effective – that will be absolutely fantastic.”
Governor Noem was the first governor to send National Guard soldiers to help defend the Southern Border nearly three years ago. Last summer, she sent once again sent 50 South Dakota National Guard soldiers to Texas to help them secure the border.
This past August, Governor Noem also participated in a press conference at the Southern Border and viewed the warzone from the air in a helicopter. A video can be found here.

Is “warzone” a word?
no, it’s a little town by china grove.
If she is sending troops to the border I hope they can come and go every month or so or else it will take a big toll on their families.
A 1 year deployment is a bit much.
How exciting! Dress up day! Newsmax spot. Looking tough, rugged and a little bit country.
Nothing like a photo op while drowning women and children. Good thing god has a wall into heaven. St Peter will be really proud of Noem and the GOP Jesus Christians.
Will she be piloting an A-10 Warthog firing rounds at the invaders and add to the out of state crony capitalism “Freedumb Works Here” campaign?
Helmet, flight suit and combat.
You all going in on this “civil war” idea hard, not sure it is a good look.
Your party is the one that is breaking Federal law. The civil war is on you.
You have no idea what a war is, or you wouldn’t call it that. Very few things upset me regarding my service as a vet, but civilians crossing a border isn’t a war. She continues to kowtow to lunatics and Pat’s pocketbook is clearly enjoying the windfall.
aiding someone who is defying the federal government is technically insurrection. or is it sedition? gotta look that up.
it COULD be ‘civil disobedience’ i guess. i wonder if the j6 insurrectionists considered a “gandhi” defense.
Ah, so disobeying fed tax laws is war. Cool cool
Is future VP candidate Noem (Trump Party-SD) getting ready for armed action on January 6th 2025 if they lose the 2024 election?
“breaking federal law”, that same law, that was interpreted by Trump’s SCOTUS….. You MAGA people will believe anything, lol
So your interpretation is obviously better than SCOTUS in this fantasy, and let me guess, not even a bachelors degree?
Are you mad at SCOTUS, or are you just planning to blame Biden, as Trump has asked?
Good luck with the civil war, you all have shown your cards, it would be SOOO easy to defeat you, a virus with an available vaccine will wipe out your whole army because they think the vaccine has a microcomputer in it. We’ll see how General Rittenhouse does on the field though, I hope we can at least get some good video to laugh at after. It will be like #J6 all over again. Losers keep losing.
Whoa, one boat in that video. What a “warzone”.
Bring me back some Whataburger?
Winner. This would be the most productive aspect of the trip. They make a great shake too.
waterburgers as they’re called are not great. it’d be better to reopen a few li’l duffers.
Will Kristi be traveling by plane or by car???

The woman who can’t feed the children in her state is eager to send razor wire to kill children at the border. In any other context, we’d call that person a psychopath. In South Dakota, we call that being governor.

Interesting comments and some are spot on. BUT, she’s our governor and we’re in session at the capitol. Shouldn’t she be seeing to what’s going on in our state? Too much time during her reign not being in South Dakota and being a governor concerned about us
All of you people who are posting act as if illegal immigrants coming in by the thousands is no big deal. Why don’t YOU all try to get into other countries by the same method. You would probably be shot. These illegals are smuggling in drugs that could kill our people, but you do not care. You would rather throw rocks at the Governor for trying to show support in protecting our citizens. Blockheads.
Furthermore, you accuse our Governor of starving our children. Maybe people should care enough to fill out the paperwork so their children can qualify for free or reduced meals. Lazy!
All you supporters are posting acting like this illegal immigrant “caravan” hasn’t been advertised every 4 years like clockwork. You also act as if there isn’t a legislative solution proposed that could fix it, but is being blocked at the request of Trump. Either you are trolling or taking the bait like a true sheep. Which is it?
It’s too bad she is ditching out during Session rather than work to see her legislative priorities get passed. Wait, what were those again? State of the State didn’t mention any…
My goodness…the Governor is going to the frontlines of what she considers a war zone and sending our Guardsmen, post haste, to said declared war zone, to keep the illegals out. Yet, as Governor, she has done little or nothing about illegals employed in South Dakota’s CAFO’s and packing plants. In fact much of our Ag Industries, including Dairy Farms, are dependent on employing illegal aliens. Is there anything she could do at home to discourage this immigration??
