Kristi Noem Mocked for Thanking Trump for Keeping Hurricanes Away

Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem was mocked Tuesday for comments she made seeming to credit President Donald Trump with preventing hurricanes.

Noem made the remarks during a cabinet meeting Tuesday during which the president made a number of false claims himself.




After accusing President Joe Biden of using DHS to “invade the country with terrorists” and thanking Trump for giving her “a very interesting job,” Noem said that her agency was hiring its 10,000th ICE officer who would “be on the job within ten days,” bragging about getting “hundreds of thousands of applications.”

It was Noem’s comments about hurricanes, however, that drew far more attention.

she was being facetious IMO. I doubt even she and her cronies (well, some of them anyway) would be that dumb.
