Official Kristi Noem social media accounts appear to have been deleted
Kristi Noem, the Republican governor of South Dakota who has been dogged by controversy since recounting how she chose to shoot dead a puppy and a goat, attracted new questions when it was noted that some of her official social media accounts appeared to have been deleted.
On Monday, a link from Noem’s official website led to an error message on Facebook, which said: “This content isn’t available right now. When this happens, it’s usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it’s been deleted.”
On X, the governor’s site linked to Noem’s personal page. The official @GovKristiNoem page displayed the message “This account doesn’t exist”.
A new X account, @GovNoemOffice, created this month, had 309 followers, far fewer than the roughly half-million of Noem’s old account.
The new official account featured links to press releases.

Looks as if Rep. Spartz (IN-5) is planning on the "I didn't know I had a gun with me" defense. Something all responsible gun owners say.

Kudos to Cavuto for apparently pushing back.
Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) on Monday said Americans view Vice President Harris as “a bit of a ding-dong,” a comment that was met with some pushback from Fox News host Neil Cavuto.
Kennedy fired off a series of attacks against Harris on Fox News’s “Your World with Neil Cavuto,” repeatedly claiming polls show that Americans view Harris as “a bit of a ding-dong.”
Cavuto continued to push back on Kennedy’s comments, questioning how beneficial it was for the senator and other Republicans to call the vice president names.
“Margaret Thatcher didn’t giggle, Golda Meir didn’t giggle. When you look at the polls, fair or not, many Americans — and again, this may not be fair — but I’m showing you what the polls show. Many Americans think that the vice president is a little bit of a ding dong,” Kennedy said Monday.
He did not specify what polls he was referring to. Kennedy also said that these polls show that Americans believe that she is a member of the “loon wing” of the Democratic Party and that they believe she is “not a serious person.”
“And let me say it again, I think that fair or not, and it may upset you, but fair or not the American people think those who have an opinion of the vice president think that, number one, she’s a little bit of a ding-dong,” he said.

It is my hope that Gomez's brother, who lost her job working for a pro-LGBTQ, Democratic mayor in the State of New Jersey for siding with the sister instead of his boss' constituency, now goes "Gee, this was worth it."

And the truth shall ever come uppermost,
And justice shall be done.

I am way behind on most threads, but had to respond to this one. Isn't one of their big arguments about Trump that, in spire of his many repulsive qualities, he's just a "regular guy" who can "relate to normal people"? Well, normal everyday people laugh about funny things.Kendra wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2024 7:07 pm https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics ... af92&ei=37
