Kristi Noem is the Secretary of Homeland Security, and if you’ve been traveling lately, you’ve probably been seeing videos of heryapping aboutthe Real ID.
The former governor of South Dakota has been all over the USoverseeing and publicizingfederal immigration raids, and it’s been pretty clear that she loves a good photo op!
People have been clowning her about it for months: “Costume department in the Trump admin going off with this one.”
There was the time she dressed up in a bullet-proof vest for some ICE raids in NYC.
One time she was a firefighter.
On the southern border, she wore a cowboy hat and rode a horse.
And another time she did the whole Coast Guard thing.
So, Secretary Noem wasquestionedby House Democrats at a House Homeland Security Committee meeting about immigration issues, includingthe deportationof Kilmar Abrego Garcia andthat wholesuspending habeas corpus thing.
A question from Democrat Bennie Thompson of Mississippi is now going viral.
“Whatever got you here, Secretary Noem, I’m glad you found time among your many photo ops and costume changes to testify about why President Trump is seeking more taxpayer dollars, and what plan to do with that money if you get it,” he said.

People in the replies are finding it very, very funny.
It’s a sea of “ZING(s)!” and “BA DA BINGS.”
