She has literally spent 2/3 of her time the last three months doing things that have nothing whatsoever to do with SD. She puts Tom Daschle to shame.
Governor Noem has indeed put Tom Daschle “to shame” in that she has stood solidly for freedom. In addition to her excellence in leadership in South Dakota, she is working to help save our Republic wherever she can. Better stay anonymous so you don’t reveal the depth of your shortcomings for all to see.
Imagine having a job, but spending all your time doing another job, and then telling the boss of your first job “screw you, the other job was more important.”
Her job is in South Dakota, working for South Dakotans — not shilling for Trump or building her national brand in anticipation for a presidential run. If that’s what she wanted to focus on she shoulda stayed in the House.
I’m anonymous because that’s how this blog rolls, but there are no shortcomings in this critique. She’s an absentee governor. You can’t deny that.
YOU might want to consider posting anonymously, so you don’t reveal the depth of your bootlicking for all to see.
The Georgia election is a national issue with enormous consequences for every state, as there’ll be hell to pay if the U.S. Senate goes Dem. Gov. Noem is known nationally and is a respected voice for liberty. By urging support for the GOP Senate incumbents, she’s serving South Dakota well.
Spot on
Some how above was never a Noem supporter anyways so who care what they think.
Cliff I’m wondering where exactly Hell is?
$30 T in debt? $40 T in debt? $60 T in debt?
Not trying to be funny either but at some point inflation will ruin our economy and that my friend will be Hell.
Charlie… We’re agreed on debt and ruined money. I’m prepared to panic as soon as necessary.
Well said Ed and Cliff; anonymous 11:34 is obviously not overly bright or able to grasp the big picture.
Ed!!!!! Never disappoints.
“Imagine having a job, but spending all your time doing another job, and then telling the boss of your first job “screw you, the other job was more important.”
Sounds like a good description of some prominent socialists….I mean democrats. Hillary Clinton, Barrack Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and lets not forget China Joe Buyden.
I stand behind my words. Cowards don’t.
The whole country is at risk, so I applaud her efforts. If the Democrats steal the Senate we are in for a long cold winter that may never end.
I’d think John Thune and Mike Rounds would be the two who could make the best case.
But they have sold out and seem to have no problem with a Biden presidency and probably no problem with a dem senate. Just as long as its not Trump.
Springer,
That is poppycock. They both preferred Trump to be re-elected and both desire a Republican Senate.
If you want to be mad at someone, be mad at Trump and McDaniels. Trump and the RNC told us they had the infrastructure and protocols to insure a fair election. Because they did not have in place what they said they did, we have the legal equivalent of hearsay regarding fraud which is insufficient to change the results of the election under the law and our Constitution. Hearsay is not evidence.
If you expect them to do something to over-turn the election, you are rejecting our Constitution and the principal of the rule of a law.
Personally, I’m also disappointed Trump is not taking any responsibility for his election loss. Leaders own mistakes and don’t blame others.
“we have the legal equivalent of hearsay regarding fraud”
So over 1000 signed affidavits is considered hearsay? I find it hard to believe that over 1000 people would each voluntarily sign a specific document pertaining to a claim that could land them in jail.
I have no doubt most if not all of the affidavits are credible.
But, because the Trump campaign and the RNC had not filed all the lawsuits and communicated the protocols to get things resolved/seggregated in real time, the magnitude is not documented, we can’t identify those questioned ballots voted for Biden or Trump, and, thus, we don’t have hard evidence to overturn the election results.
The analogy is we know money is missing from a company under the control of a particular person but the accusers can’t even present evidence for another person to discern if it was misdemeanor petty theft, felony grand theft or just incompetence.
The Trump campaign and the RNC messed up.
Let’s run with your scenario and also add in the fact that the law enforcement authority that has investigative jurisdiction and the courts refuse to investigate the allegations….so how can evidence be presented if the powers that be refuse to even look into it?
Agreed
Doesn’t one have to show they’ve been wronged to have cause?
Thune has raised a ton of money for the GA Republican senators. So, Springer, again, you’re wrong.
I dunno; they don’t seem to have a lot of fight in them. I think it’s time for them to hang up their cleats and let in some fresh energy.
I actually disagree with Troy on this. I’d like to see a true investigation into these amoralities to put them to rest. The FBI wasted a lot of time on Russia Collusion. These abnormalities and changes against their own state constitutions are not legal. But courts seen to not care nor the FBI.
I agree we need to keep the heat on an investigation. Unfortunately, coupling it with overturning the election only makes it less likely there will ever be an investigation or a change in laws to ensure it doesn’t happen in the future.
In other words, while we are spending time re-fighting a war already lost, we are failing to prepare for the next war.
WWBD? (Billy)
Who gives a crap what a midwestern socialist supporter would do?
Steve,
They have no quantifiable evidence to overturn the election which has been the thrust of all the lawsuits. They need to investigate the lack of controls, the breakdown of controls, and put in protocols/procedures/rules/laws to prevent future election fraud. That is the fight in front of us.
BTW, the National Republican Senatorial Committee, Georgia Republican party, and the two campaigns have 8,000 lawyers on the ground for election day and the vote counting process. In November the Trump campaign had less than 1,000 around the country.
The more I learn the angrier I get. It is hard to say you were robbed when you left your wallet in the middle of the street. More and more that is how it looks like with regard to being prepared for the November election.
Good analogy
I don’t think that is a good analogy. The wallet comparison is crap. There could have been an armed guard protecting it, but when overwhelmed by a well planned robbery with sheer numbers, the wallet is gone.
The GOP had 1000 poll watchers (stated above) but spread thin, and when told by the authorities they have to leave, what can they do? This was a planned and well executed attack on our voting system, resulting in the heist of the election.
I think they had adequate poll watchers around the country and especially in the potential troublesome areas.
The dereliction of duty of the campaign and RNC are as follows:
They didn’t file the lawsuits, develop the protocols, or have the legal actions prepared to take action in real time to protect the evidence. Relying on volunteer poll watchers in the hundreds of thousands who don’t have the tools or experience to know what to do was moronic.
You asked a good question: “when told by the authorities they had to leave, what can they do?” And that is exactly the failure of the Trump campaign: This should have been anticipated and they should have had a series of protocols on what to do. Instead, they didn’t have a clue on what to do.
Incompetence is the only description of this fiasco. They knew it was coming, told us they had it handled, and in the end didn’t.
Was it the incompetence of the Trump campaign or the Georgia GOP? Or neither of them? Or since it had never happened before just how do you prepare? When you heard the Dems saying to Biden “don’t concede” did you think something like this would happen? Why not, you have been involved with Rep politics for years. If you did why didn’t you send out the warning? I am not accusing you of anything Troy, but it is very easy to point the blame after the fact.
gOP
Trump said we were prepared. Not true.
The potential problems with mail-in ballots was identified decades ago by the Carter-Baker commission. There were no protocols in place to deal with the known problems.
Incompetence.
There were hundreds of both text messages and cell phone calls pertaining to whatever the Biden game plan for winning was going around the country in the last four years.
Also during the last four years the FBI has been intercepting every call and text message of anyone who ever so much as looked at Donald Trump.
It would appear to any intelligent person that certain bureaucracies in the federal government are already controlled mostly by one party in America today.
If that is actually true America has failed.
Is that why you signed the letter advocating throwing out an election based on zero evidence along with a disturbing amount of your fellow GOP colleagues? The GOP is going to have to deal with this rift between folks who can’t even agree on an objective reality anymore. Surprised a character like Trump is motivating so many to cash in their reputations and go all in for a very mediocre, at best, politician.
When I manned a County GOP office in Brookings, I had more people wanting political signs with Sarah Palin on them rather then just McCain for President. I hope Kristi Noem stays Governor for two terms rather then think of a higher office. I wished Sarah Palin would have stayed Governor of Alaska rather than be just a whipping girl for the main stream media.
