Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

We are marching to Senator Thune’s office. There must be accountability for the detainment of a Senator. This is not normal.

Wow who could’ve guessed that this would happen
It’s almost as if USAID was a pillar of American soft power and influence in the world

DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.
