Man, they really dog walked her. What an incredible piece of shit.
Watched that earlier. Why is everyone fighting this administration such pussies?!
“Sir,” she responded, “we have not deported US citizens or military veterans.”
"Here are the receipts (WAY more than just this guy), and here's a vet you deported, live on Zoom. So, either you are lying or ignorant as to what is going on under your watch."
"bullshit, bullshit, bullshit..."
"You are either lying or ignorant. Which is it?"
"bullshit, bullshit, bullshit..."
"Lying or ignorant. Pick one. Only one."
Why do they not nail these people to the fucking wall?!
I do like the lying or ignorant line.
But I also wanted him to ask "Can Mr. Y come back to his country now, Ms Noem?"
The "pledge to at least look at" was feckless, weak hedging. This is why people hate Democrats. He couldn't even think to use stronger language than that.
"Lying or ignorant. Pick one. Only one."
I feel like both is a likely option here too
It simply doesn't matter. Her supporters don't care that she lies because "all politicians lie".
A full third of the country couldn't be bothered to show up and sign a piece of fucking paper to fight these pigs.
Exactly. And add to that some journalistic solidarity, when the person before you asks a question that gets dodged and then you are called on ASK THE SAME QUESTION and keep doing it until either theres an answer or the admin is forced to end the press conference in shame
in shame
As if they were capable of that.
They lie.
We know they are lying.
They know that they are lying.
They even know that we know they are lying.
We also know that they know we know they are lying.
They, of course, know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying.
Yet they still lie.
In Russia, the lie has become not just a moral category, but the pillar industry of this country. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn (1918-2008)

In the U.S. the lie has become not just a moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.
SHRUGS Must be all that money.

If we are going to deport anyone it should be imperialist enforcers. But we shouldn't deport anyone open borders now.
They can sincerely hold these beliefs. They will just believe "not that veteran"
They’re not real veterans.
They are only veterans if they are citizens, otherwise they are just sparkling former soldiers.
Known liar lies. Film at 11.
Soon: "He didn't look like a veteran!" "He's not actually a veteran because [fascist excuse]" "Real veterans have ways of shutting that whole [deportation] thing down "
Boy that's the least flattering pic of Noem to date.
I was wondering what was wrong with her face?!?
How does “earshot” mean roughly 7000 miles away, connected by webcam?
You don’t need to lie for Noem to look like a fool.
If I stand on one side of a magic portal and there is a Nazi on the other side of the portal, that Nazi is in punching distance. Technology allows transmission of voices at the speed of light. Don't be pedantic.
While the administration and their plans are horrible, not exactly crying tears for the empire enforcement force. Who cares.
They are people too, you're going to either have to win them over or fight every last one. I know which I prefer.
