Noem should face a full criminal investigation for the funds she controlled, including where they ultimately went, and be held legally accountable in court if wrongdoing is proven. The same standard must apply to the men above her—Miller, Bannon, Hegseth, Patel—and to powerful financiers like Thiel, Bezos, and Musk, whose influence and money amplify the harm done in the pursuit of ego and greed.
She should be investigated, indicted, tried, and, if guilty, sentenced, standing in court in an orange jumpsuit without the armor of extensions, fillers, makeup, or injections—a visible reminder that no one is above the law. Her punishment should be public and exemplary so that others understand that abusing power and siphoning money, possibly into offshore accounts, carries real consequences.
It is not incidental that she is a woman deployed as a front; the men who elevated and directed her must also be held to account. They should not be allowed to hide behind her or behind their media machines while policy and propaganda cost people their lives.
The United States made a catastrophic error when it failed to truly punish the former Confederacy after the Civil War, allowing a war for slavery to be repackaged as a noble stand for “freedom.” The myths that followed paved the way for later betrayals of democracy, culminating in events like January 6th, when lies again fueled an assault on the constitutional order.
If these actors are not punished, then the rule of law collapses into theater, and the Constitution becomes just another prop to thump, no more meaningful to them than a Bible or the Atkins diet plan. Without real consequences, their oaths are empty, their rhetoric is fraud, and the system itself becomes an accomplice to their corruption.
You watch them and listen to them, and it is like a game. Who can be the cruelest? Who can kill the most people? Who can get "orange satan's" attention the most? And like a video game, cost of life means nothing! None of them have a heart or feelings. They are like AI, just doing what the dear leader tells them to do, or what they think will get the approval of "orange satan". Meanwhile innocent people die; here at home, and now all over the Middle East. If this administration doesn't receive accountability from Congress, or the Supreme Court, they just may face the consequences from the extremists in the Middle East. And, the average American citizen is caught in the middle of it all!
It will be interesting to see how much bravery these people will exhibit. Will stand and fight and take the consequences? Or will they flee to a safe-haven country without an extradition treaty with the United States?
I read elsewhere on Substack that Trump could seek to make an example of her by instructing Pam Bondi to prosecute her to send a warning message to any others who try to steal his limelight.
She is so out of touch. She said, "harm American citizens, there will be consequences." Incredibly she seemed to be unaware of the irony in that statement.
Cabinet secretaries have always mixed personal ambition with public power, from Ulysses Grant's corruption riddled administration to Teapot Dome. Accountability rarely reached the architects.
Noem's reported contracting arrangements and alleged constitutional violations may test whether modern oversight mechanisms can do what Gilded Age institutions largely could not.
Congressional committees have begun their inquiry, and federal records are rarely as forgiving as political patrons. When institutional corruption becomes personally profitable rather than ideologically driven, does it become easier or harder to prosecute?
the posters are so freaking awesome !! ....Steve, you are a real Patriot ....I wish these could be plastered all the way down the eastern seaboard to outside tRUMP's Mar-a Lago fleabag motel, including a poster of his big fat ugly "pedo" mug.....keep up the fantastic work Steve....always like, subscribe and restack.
Steve, very well done, as alwyas but you are urged to tell us what you really think of Gestapo Kristi, so no sugar coating of her crimes or defenses proffered on her behalf. But you err in one respect, I submit. Specifically, it is very doubtful that Kristi will "spend the balance of her life accounting for her illegal and unconstitutional crimes." Thus, the Wicked Man will pardon her (and all other MAGA luminaries) for all federal crimes, and because of immunity doctrines that federal officials may invoke even in state prosecutions of them, conviction on state charges will be difficult. And in the MAGAsphere. there will be plenty of lucrative job opportunities, e.g. corporate boards, FOX news commentator, lobbyist, where she will be shielded from having to account for anything. To be sure, the mainstream, and left wing blogosphere will assail her. but she will listen to none of it and none of those around her will fill her in.
Freud often linked sexual flagrancy with violence. The Black Widow Barbie is an apt example. A tough bitch is a hot bitch, a come-and-get-me bitch. Before the old WaPo editorial screeners kicked me off their comments page, I laid into her while 'governor' of SD. Prior to her expose on how to train a dog and milk a goat. Ask Native America about her. Lady MacBeth has nothing on this coiled rattler, except rattlers have good reasoning for their venom. Barbie has none, she just enjoys being bad. And the damage she inflicted cannot be measured, it will continue in her absence, since now 'murka gets MMA lite from OkieVille. One bad apple deserves another. I expect Homan and Mr. HooterVille to clash quickly. As for Barbie, this phase of her life will only fuel the cruelty even more. Expect the 'Shield' to have more-than-ample studded daggers. Only a visit to a gravel pit filed with real snakes can do her in. Bad girls thrive in degenerate 'murka.
Ask anyone in South Dakota. I live a mile from the South Dakota border and I spend a fair amount of time in that state. I'm pretty sure a lot of South Dakota citizens were more than happy to offload her sorry, sagging a$$ onto the Federal Gummint when TFG took over. Her in-state $hit was getting pretty old by then. Ask the folks in McCook Lake what they think of her.
My sister went to school in Chadron.. I often was in Black Hills in summer. Had a fair connection with Pine Ridge. No love lost there, or anywhere as you point out. Hard hearted asses are all over the plains. Too many rapes/beatings as a kid. Too much religion, not enough agape love. She was an east-sider even, not what you would think would be cowgirl mentality with a grudge. But it happens. Family runs both ways.
She ought to be taken to the middle of the Pine Ridge rez and kicked out of the car. Let the Oglalas sort her $hit out. Or any of the nine federal rezzes in the state. I would take her to the Rosebud where I go - they don't like her there either.
I think she is from Watertown which is almost as eastern as you can get in the state. Not exactly the cowboy capital of South Dakota. BTW, Chadron and Valentine are the 2 of the best western towns in the U.S., let alone Nebraska.
Trump has to keep her around because now he knows she will pit herself against Trump and Steven Miller in an effort to survive. They will all go down when Trump is impeached.

The cruelty was the point, just like it is with anything else to do with Donald Trump.
They delight in it. Corruption, stupidly, incompetence, sadism, dishonesty, vanity ….and cruelty above all.

The day of reckoning is coming.
Zero. They will flip and betray one another, tearing everything in sight like sharks in a bloody sea.
I'm guessing she's on her way to Venezuela
"The United States made a catastrophic error when it failed to truly punish the former Confederacy after the Civil War"
We also screwed up by not prosecuting, convicting, and punishing Richard Nixon for his crimes against the U.S. Constitution.
I sent a telegram to Ford the day after the pardon. It simply said, "The honeymoon is over." Any out there who lived in those days know what I meant.
I read elsewhere on Substack that Trump could seek to make an example of her by instructing Pam Bondi to prosecute her to send a warning message to any others who try to steal his limelight.
That sounds like frump!
Yes. If she was an official in any town or city government, she would be in jail.
I believe that Minnesota has every legal right to pursue the nutty Noem for her role(s) in the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
She is so out of touch. She said, "harm American citizens, there will be consequences." Incredibly she seemed to be unaware of the irony in that statement.
Anthony she seems to be unaware of a brain or heart.
Or, lacking both!
absolutely
Just like Trump! 🤔
Just like Bondi.
Double absolutely Betty!
They're eating their own on Predator Patio. Sauce with that?!
"Sauce with that?!"
Something off the high end of the Scoville scale. Let it burn!
The American need to get all that money back even if we take it out of her hide. Hegseth next, please.🙏
Noem's lies aren't worth repeating
But her term she won't be completing
Of course Corey's going too
To some grift that is new
And it's assured that they'll still keep on cheating
Nice job but a true limerick should have dirty words in it.😊
Like there once was a man from Nantucket. . .
😂
"...she will be the 'Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas,' which sounds great until you realize that there is no such thing."
I wonder what she will be paid for this "make-work" job?
I would argue that it's a promotion. Same pay, zero responsibility. I wonder if she'll keep quiet or embarrass the regime further?
A tell - all would be nice
I was thinking the same thing.
The wicked witch is dead replaced by a flying monkey.
Love the posters! Brilliant 👏 👏 👏
The harsh winter outside the bubble can’t arrive soon enough. Let’s hope this portends a deep freeze that reaches into a ballroom-less white house.
Let the dominoes fall!
Not to see her hair extensions and Botoxed face is a victory in itself
and the lips

Agreed -- those posters made my day! Thank you Steve for sharing the image and the good people of DC for doing the foot work.
One down, 15 to go
You can bet she has a pardon in her cowboy hat….

I am afraid you are absolutely correct

MN border. She is a full on bigot. Niobrara is a beautiful river.
Trump has to keep her around because now he knows she will pit herself against Trump and Steven Miller in an effort to survive. They will all go down when Trump is impeached.
