"She testified that Trump personally approved the $220 million ad campaign. That got her fired..." [View all]

I do think that NOEM embarrassing Trump and hurting his big EGO played a large role in Trump getting rid of her.

🚨 Trump is preparing to fire Kristi Noem.
Let’s review what she did wrong:

She called dead Americans domestic terrorists. ✓

She spent $220 million on vanity ads. ✓

She awarded $143 million to a ghost company. ✓

She lied under oath about court orders, detained citizens, and Lewandowski’s role. ✓

She couldn’t deny an affair with her chief of staff in a congressional hearing. ✓

None of that got her fired.

She testified that Trump personally approved the $220 million ad campaign.

That got her fired.

In this administration you can lie to Congress, violate court orders, and detain American citizens.

Just don’t put the boss in the frame.
