Portland leaders seek dialogue, while Kristi Noem slams local electeds as 'pansies'

In an appearance on Fox News, Noem called local elected officials “pansies” and said she wanted more security at the ICE building.

She told host Jesse Watters, “We wanted to have their streets opened up again and to not let the anarchists run this city anymore. That we would ask them to continue to back us up like we’ve been asking for rather than what they’ve been doing the last several months, which is just letting our officers hang out to dry.”


Wilson said the calm Noem witnessed Tuesday showed that “Portland continues to manage public safety professionally and responsibly, irrespective of the claims of out-of-state social media influencers.”

He said the tactics used by federal agents at the facility were troubling and likely unconstitutional and said “we still do not know what ‘full force’ against Portland means,” referencing Trump’s comments when he first authorized sending troops to Oregon.


Are we sure she's not a FemBot?
She does not sound like a real human.
She sounds like a programmed doll.
She does not look like a real human, even a MAGA female human.
She must weigh 45 lbs.

It's not 2020 and the driveway outside the ICE Building isn't Portland.

I dreamed last night that she was face-to-face with a protester in a 12-foot penis costume... I woke up before I remembered anything else, but damn... The subconscious is wonderful sometimes, isn't it?

Why would she use that word? What exactly is she trying to say? The Cops and Government of Portland are wimpy pansies (or maybe homos?) who let the city burn on purpose?

I hear she claimed they were hiding the war zone from her.

She is totally unhinged and/or a programmed android.
