Yes, that's right: Kristi Noem said "persecute," not "prosecute."
Noem: "Anyone who has info on this needs to know we will be coming after you & we will bring you to justice. We absolutely will persecute you b/c we do know that we will never allow this to continue to happen in our country -- allow individuals who came to our country unvetted by Joe Biden ... "

Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

FT says during his recent visit, Trump's envoy Driscoll gave Kyiv a Moscow-coordinated plan and told them to accept losing allegedly "disputed" cities.
One EU official told FT the tone was “nauseating.”

One reason I raise this is bc Kristi Noem now says that Lakanwal was "radicalized" in the US (she has to say that or she herself is complicit in failing to vet him properly).
But then how is he different from other Afghan/Iraq veterans who murder?

On the horrific news that Pete Hegseth ordered the killing of boat bombing survivors, remember: The Trump Murder Memo "authorizing" the strikes preemptively clears those carrying them out. That's unusual. And we still haven't heard from the commander who resigned:
