Noem not only had a US Senator assaulted and falsely arrested, she’s lying about it. While Padilla was thrown to his knees she was talking about how scared her ICE agents were for being doxxed.
She’s a liar. Call for her resignation

Deploying the military on U.S. soil as law enforcement against Americans was on page 555 of Project 2025.
So don’t say “I didn’t vote for this,” because you did.
This isn’t a response.
This was always their plan.
