I usually hate when mods delete popular threads, but this post does break Rule 1.4: “Not United States Internal News”.
This is domestic American news. Not world news.
Apparently she just gave a press conference and she hadn’t been told she was fired 🤣
TBF Trump immediately moved her onto some newfangled program that has even less congressional oversight while acting as a money pit, so it’s not really a firing…
It was a lateral “promotion”. She was put in an unimportant box where she can’t really do anything.
Except access a ton of money and have no accountability.
The first thing I wondered when I heard the news was if she knew, because this same thing has happened before. Despite “you’re fired” being the phrase that made Trump famous, outside of scripted television he’s a chickenshit coward who can’t fire underlings in person. He has to do it indirectly to avoid confrontations.
It is pretty fucking wild - he literally fires people on Twitter because he’s too chickenshit to do it to their face
She’s a horrible gift that keeps on giving.
Because just like when she was a VP candidate, she made an absolute ass of herself, and made her boss look bad.
I’m willing to bet that her replacement will largely do the exact same thing but with better media training and less of a PR disaster.
Ha Millin will be a PR disaster too
She’s being replaced by fucking Markwayne Mullin. The senator so inbred southern his first name is two actual names glued together. He’s just as MAGA, and just as dumb as Noem.
Love this pic of him cowering on Jan 6th, 2021, though.
A picture is worth a thousand words. Holy fuck they’re not so good for that guy
and made her boss look
badand made her boss look somehow worse
Right? I feel like they don’t understand the gravity of how difficult this is, given the givens.
They mentioned someone in the article but I haven’t looked into them yet as he doesn’t seem to be part of the usual suspects.
It’s this guy:

RAJU: You’ll concede this is war?
MARKWAYNE MULLIN: We haven’t declared war. They declared war on us
RAJU: The president called it war and Secretary Hegseth called it war
REPORTER: When you walked up just now, you called it war
MULLIN: Okay. That was a misspoke.
Oh. Fun. -.-
I didn’t think they would be but I didn’t know how bad it was gonna be.
It’s worse than the little funny clip I showed you. He has also said to deport children of deported parents. The more you look, the more you’ll find.
Ahh. Yeah. Thanks for the links. I do appreciate it.
I do prefer to use links so I can to have some proof of the things I say. You’re very welcome.
I think it’s time for Tucker Carlson to step up
Wtf is the shield of America
Trump knows the avengers is fictional right?
I wouldn’t count on it.
Great, now I get to be stressed until the weekend that they’re going to anounxe they want to annex all of the America’s for a missile dome.
He’s been threatening that already, but moving people and creating a project for it is a bad sign.
The only thing these stupid AI chips in my phone are good for. The eye patch is 100% AI slop.
You ran it locally? With what, DrawThings?
Breaking the chain of accountability/responsibility. IMO that’s all this is. “That was the last CEO/Manager/DHS Secretary.” This is a business move and nothing more.
Unfortunately, there’s a correct way to remove Kristi Noem from office and this ain’t it.
Out of curiosity, how do you mean? the Department of Homeland Secrurity Secretary is a cabinet member and serves “at the pleasure of the president”. He’s able to hire and fire cabinet members as he wills per Article II of the U.S. Constitution about executive power. Is the DHS one of the protected that needs cause?
Out of curiosity, how do you mean?
The correct way to fire her would be out of a cannon.
LMAO. Oh! The fun way.
But then you’re just giving Trump an excuse to say his trademarked phrase, “You’re fired.”
I’m guessing this commenter was thinking something a little more… Revolutionary?
Saw the theory that MAGA intentionally chooses severely incompetent women for these positions to then pin all their policy failures on and replace them with men, to reinforce womens “inferiority” in the base’s minds.
This is pretty hard to prove considering the administration has no competent people of any gender.
and thats where our great friend dunning-kreuger comes into play!
I mean, it follows his first year term playbook of “blame everyone but me”
Alongside the announcement of Noem’s ouster,
Yay!
the president said he would tap Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., to be her replacement
Boo!
lol
She was discarded like a condom at Charlie Sheen’s house.
