☀︎ Nothin’ to see here! That’s just standard FOIA “neither confirm nor deny” language—not proof of a criminal investigation. The Sun ☀️ turned routine bureaucracy into a headline. No charges, no case, Noem’s already gone. Next.

I'm skeptical even the worst Republican abuses will be prosecuted successfully by the Trump DOJ, but if didn't try hard, and failed, that gets Noem off, or get it done quickly so Trump can pardon her.

Lest we forget, DHS was then also purchasing concentration camp warehouses at unfathomable mark ups. The process was rushed, ill considered, warehouses were bought before informing adjacent communities, some of whom blocked the usage. Wonder what they did with those pink elephants.

PS KRISTI CANNOT STOP ME FROM MY SHOPPIJG SPREES. 1. IT IS NOT HER JOB T9 STOP ME. 2. IT IS MY MONEY TO BUY FUN THINGS FOR THE U.S. ARMED FORCES 3. SHE WOULD DIE IF SHE SAW THE RECEIPTS FROM LAST WEEKEND'S SPLURGE ON MILITARY ROBOTS.

SO WHAT, I ORDERED 25 F-47 JETS AND 100 JETZERO PASSENGER SPACE CRAFT. IT WAS LATE AND I HAD THE COMPANY CREDIT CARD AND WE REALLY NEED THE JETS AND SPACE SHIPS. IT'S NOT KRISTI'S MONEY, SO... KRISTI, REMEMBER WHEH YOU BOUGHT TOO MUCH MAKEUP FROM BLOOMINGDALES. WE ALL LAUGHED. NOBODY WENT TO JAIL.

Weren't there some murders in Minnesota which still are unresolved? You know, it is so hard to find who committed the crime... It is great that those plane purchases are looked into, but it can take a decade or more to even find who ordered those transactions...

Excuse me. Don’t we all realize that the people in this administration believe they were entitled to “the lifestyle of the rich and famous.” The kids probably won’t get this reference. 😉

Some kind of fantasyland investigation, because they know they’re protecting a corrupt pedophile. Plus Trump already said out loud everyone will get a pardon before he leaves office (so democrats can’t politicize the DOJ like Biden did). 🙄 Not a single MAGA member of congress should be re-elected.

No. There is no investigation. Not commenting on investigations is standard procedure. They use the excuse of standard procedure when silence & secrecy hides their crimes. Their norm is to throw public accusations and spread lies in the absence of investigation when they think it serves them.

It's essential we repeal all the laws creating and funding DHS, claw back ALL the $ and assets, including the planes they've been so generously and thoughtlessly granted, fire and begin prosecutions of ICE orcs who've committed murder or manslaughter, close and liberate all the camps and prosecute

"Ongoing criminal law enforcement" is actually a very good description of Noem's tenure, in the sense that her tenure is mainly a matter of using law enforcement powers to engage in ongoing criminal activity.

UPDATE: Following the publication of this story, DHS sent the Sun a statement about its statement: “The previous response was sent in error. The Foia request is under review to determine appropriate action consistent with applicable legal requirements.” www.washingtonsun.com/legal/kristi...

Let’s see if Todd Blanche likes or dislikes Krispy Nohm! Will she be prosecuted and sentenced to be Ghialine’s roommate at club fed? Or will the investigation go nowhere?

I wonder how many will start spilling their guts to save their asses. Lock them up, put them in a detention center to wait out the trial day. Then delay, distract and forget about them.
