I don’t think this new angle changed anyone’s mind, because everyone is already dug into their partisan foxholes, but it should very clearly at least show you that she wasn’t trying to run over this officer. That narrative was bullshit.

Impeach ICE Barbie
Moskowitz on Noem: "Is she hiding her face like her ICE agents now? By the way - is this what the $800b went to? Every day we see her after some new tragedy, she's wearing a different outfit with a different hat. She looks ridiculous. She deserves to be removed from her job, & if not impeached."
