NOem Bid Contracts

I saw this story, and it didn’t surprise me one bit;
Ostentatious religiosity is often an attempt to overcompensate for some decidedly less-divine behavior. The Trump administration’s draconian deportation regime’s defending such evil with Bible verses is a recent example of this timeless tradition.
The second hype video mirrors the first. Dark images of militaristic immigration enforcement actions are paired with Proverbs 28: “The wicked flee when no man pursueth; but the righteous are bold as a lion.”
The ‘Dumbest Person on Earth’ is now in the national spotlight, the MSM is catching on to how much of an ignorant fool she is, but her Bible-Bumping ways is rearing it’s head. All the media needs to do is go back 13 years ago to see Noem’s involvement with a church that loves to roll in the aisle, speak in tongues and generally take parishioners money for their own profit;
Noem reports a combined total of $15,833 in salary from 3 different sources $6,000 from her SD legislative gig, $8,833 from something called Family Worship Center and $1,000 from Noem Family Insurance in Bryant.
If the MSM wants a real story on Noem, they need to contact the Mitchell Daily Republic about the initial story in 2012, and ask about her involvement with a kook church called Foursquare. While I was raised Catholic and Lutheran I am agnostic now, but I believe church gave me a good basis for my faith and I still believe in a creator, and I just leave it at that. While I think most if not all religious doctrines (not just the Bible) are fictional tales with some historical references to prophets, the New Testament is a great guide on how to be a good person and has tons of great advice on how to treat your neighbor, where it gets weird is when people flop on the floor like fish after reading basically a self-help book. I will defend my Christian friends and their right to worship how they wish, it is guaranteed in our Constitution and 1st Amendment, what I won’t defend is kook politician who bastardize religious text to justify their racism, apathy and violence towards immigrants. There is a bigger story here MSNBC, are you going to pursue it or are you gonna let the ‘Dumbest Person on Earth’ continue her Holy War against immigrants?
So ‘Norm’ gave me this idea today;

I am not sure what to think of it, it’s kind of funny, but a little out of place. So I am running a contest, whoever writes the best caption I will take to Dakota Craft Links for a wonderful sausage lunch . . . but yah gotta sit and eat it with me 🙂 Oh, and I run a dictatorship, so I decide, but feel free to nag me about who you like the best.

Speaking of silliness, looks like Noem is going to have some good attendance at her little speech at DSU on Saturday. I think it is going to be a madhouse. The organizing of protesters on social media is exploding. I know several folks from SF attending the event. I’m sure the Madison town cops are preparing by skipping Taco Johns for lunch this week 🙁 and only eating coleslaw and Bevita breakfast bars.
Josh is a commentator on the Daily Show, but his standup is wonderful. He is measured, which is weird for a comedian. Anyhoo, at the beginning of the show he goes on a Noem rant about her purse. I was thinking the exact same thing. Good Stuff.

I have joked with folks that now that we are dyeing potatoes instead of eggs for Easter we need to change the easter mammal to Badger. Maybe the Easter Badger was upset with Noem for flaunting her wealth on a holiday that celebrates the modesty and charity of Jesus Christ while chomping on Caviar? I also find it ironic that the one person in charge of our HOMELAND SECURITY can’t even secure her purse in a swank DC restaurant. But you can’t get more moronic then the Defense Secretary. He’s the next to fall victim to the Easter Badger.
DSU NEEDS TO GROW A PAIR
There has been a story circulating that DSU has proposed an honorary degree to Noem. The first round of votes it failed, and they should have left it at that, but they voted a second time to give it to her. DSU should have rejected this based on her political motives alone. It also puts the school in an uncomfortable position, and based on that alone it should have been rejected. The school could have released a simple statement;
“Due to the political appointment of Secretary Noem we feel the honorary degree would only cause political controversy and not benefit DSU or Noem. We reject the request.”
Buck up and stand up to these folks.
