A dark money group paid $80,000 to Noem’s personal company when she was governor of South Dakota. She did not include this income on her federal disclosure forms, a likely violation of ethics requirements, experts say.

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000. She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms.

    Republican is corrupt

    Gash! Really? What? No way! How could that have happened? What will they do now?

    How soon could one expect the g3stapo to storm one’s front door if one posted her home address for all her “constituents” to see?

    But I mean, it is publicly available info, quite easy to find if you look in the right places… Plus she probably already has full-time staff sorting through all those shipments of syringes packed with puppy poop she must get… Probably.

    Only asking for a friend.

    Revoke her citizenship, I guess?

    Deport her (no due process, amirite)

    Kidnapping is for everyone, now, boys.

      That would take paperwork. It could be traced back to his orange ass.

      Sending a buncha “alpha” male types in masks to kidnap people and “deport” them is much easier.

      Trump used Stochastic Terrorism! Sadly, its super effective.

    It’s absolutely the best time to be a grifter.

    Say a few magic words like “Daddy is coming.” And “That’ll trigger the libs”. Wear a MAGA hat. Go on social media to create pure outrage porn like, “Look at how we used to live before OBAMA.”

    Then sell expired aspirin for 10x the price and buy a farm.

    80K? That’s, what, a party favor’s worth of bribes? Most members of this administration wouldn’t even get out of bed for such a paltry sum.

    The fact that all of our freedoms and rights were for sale is bad enough, but if you see the absolute bottom prices that were paid, it’s a hundred times worse still.

      Didn’t we recently find out from some leaks or disclosures that you can essentially buy some politicians for as low as $10K? I can’t remember the source right now

        Yes, but you need access to get them for such a price. You can’t just walk in off the street with $10k and buy one afaik.
