Their response? Bigger bombs

Ours? Enabling them

Noem could forgo her new federal role for a political race, but observers say it’s unlikely β€’ South Dakota Searchlight Several political insiders think Kristi Noem will stick with her new role in the Trump administration rather than go back into politics.
