Fraud. I believe she committed FRAUD and needs to be investigated.
As long as we're talking about how war is driven by the stock market and portfolios of the Epstein Class: 50 members of Congress profit from defense contracts.
Congress should not be able to trade in single stocks. Dems and GOP are guilty of this clear ethics conflict.

"He seems to have had no idea that the Gulf would be a target. … He professed that Iran’s attacks on American allies were 'probably the biggest surprise'—despite the fact that just about every country in the region had warned that Iran would surely attack them in retaliation."
Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."
American democracy began in 1965. It will end in 2026 when the Roberts Court overturns the Voting Rights Act.
Not surprising
"Maria was working with a shelter program to house fifty unhoused families at one of the Motel 6 properties she managed, she told me." Now that she's been deported, they might be out of a home.

This is a start, but there also needs to be a criminal investigation. Senator Richard Blumenthal said he plans to push for a perjury investigation into Kristi Noem.
Trump’s “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER” posting meets the supply-chain of reality: Ras Laffan hit, force majeure declared, oil jitters, interceptor burn rates, and a #Pentagon pep rally that basically translates to “we’re fine… but build it yesterday.” #uspolitics

Whew.
All signs are increasingly pointing to a significant, if not strong to very strong, El Niño event. I'll have more to say in coming weeks & months, but for now I'll just say that this is increasingly likely to become a major regional-to-global climate driver in 2026-2027.

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."
Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show.
She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

Remember when Rep. Greg Gianforte, now the GOP governor of the state, body slammed a reporter into a table?
We probably need to shut down the Montana Republican Party entirely until we can figure out where all this violent rage is coming from.

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.
Thank you.
I will stand with our servicemembers and vote in favor of the bipartisan War Powers Resolution tomorrow.
Neguse: “Where's Safe America Media headquartered?”
Noem: “I don’t know.”
Neguse: “I don’t know either. We can't find it…You want the American people to believe that this is all above board, that a $143 million of taxpayer money just happened to go to this one company that doesn't have a headquart
We identified 12 shootings by federal agents that led to the deaths or injuries of citizens & immigrants since Sept.
Nearly every time, the Trump admin blamed the injured and dead. Experts say this apparent lack of accountability demands that local authorities step up to investigate federal agents.
AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do
Someone needs to tell Hegseth that you CANNOT force God's hand by trying to jump start Armageddon through military action. In fact, it's probably blasphemous.
A judge has ordered the government to start refunding $130+ billion in unlawful #tariffs.
This is what happens when Congress refuses to use its constitutional powers over the purse while presidents stretch emergency authorities. A kakistrophic lesson. #uspolitics
