    Canada hosts some of the worst companies in the world, mining conglomerates being chief amongst them along with a bunch of shady oil related firms.

    She gained national attention during the COVID-19 pandemic for opposing statewide mask mandates in favor of voluntary measures. Noem has conservative positions on most domestic issues, particularly gun rights, abortion, and immigration.

    In January 2026, Noem defended the killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti by federal ICE agents, before any investigation, which led some lawmakers to call for her resignation or impeachment. In March 2026, Noem appeared before the Senate Committee on the Judiciary after reports emerged of her alleged relationship with her subordinate, Corey Lewandowski, and of her misuse of government funds on television advertisements and private luxury jets, as well as inappropriate use of U.S. Coast Guard assets and housing.

    Her testimony before the committee intensified criticism from Congress. After the congressional hearing, Trump announced his decision to remove Noem from DHS.

        also 3 horses whom she deemed “too old” in a ditch, a smelly goat, and likely a previous pet dog.

      The world is a weird place when the “conservative” view on abortion and immigration is to dispose of them. She definitely wants to conserve gun rights though.

        True. What we need is full ostracization, but that’s difficult in a society with no space between borders. Has science figured out demi-planes yet? We could just lose her between realities.
