Don't Come Around Here No More




South Dakota's MAGAt dog shooting Governor Kristi "Noooo!" Noem has lost hope as a VP candidate on the Malignant Loser / Al Caporn / Rip Van Stinkle's presidential ticket, and now has been barred from roughly 20 percent of the territory of her own state. Native American tribes have sovereignty to decide who enters tribal lands and who doesn't, and Noem is one of the latter. From The Hill:

"Two additional Native American tribes in South Dakota have banned Gov. Kristi Noem (R-S.D.) from their reservations after she said earlier this year that tribal leaders benefited from drug cartels.

Noem is now banned from traveling to about one-fifth of South Dakota after the Yankton Sioux Tribe voted Friday to ban Noem and the Sisseton-Wahpeton Ovate did the same days earlier. Four other tribes had previously barred Noem over her cartel comments and other remarks.

“We’ve got some tribal leaders that I believe are personally benefiting from the cartels being there, and that’s why they attack me every day,” the governor said at a forum in March. “But I’m going to fight for the people who actually live in those situations, who call me and text me every day and say, ‘Please, dear governor, please come help us in Pine Ridge. We are scared.’”  (our emphasis)

Note the "please, dear governor" bit above. She really has the dishonest, narcissistic Trump "sir" anecdote pattern down pat.

Noem is known for making up stories about meeting foreign leaders and for making a weird ad for a Texas cosmetic dentistry firm, in addition to her violent termination of a misbehaving dog. The fact that 20 percent of her own state is off limits to her is indicative of her polarizing politics, demagoguery and bigotry.
