Gov. Kristi Noem is auditioning to be Donald Trump’s operating mate, which is why she claimed that South Dakota is on the frontline of the southern border.
Noem mentioned, “The overwhelming majority of the medicine within the Midwest are coming proper by way of South Dakota on these reservations that I can’t do something about. The folks of South Dakota dwell with being on the mess each single day as a result of the cartels are arrange in South Dakota too.
The border has been a giant speaking level for South Dakota Republicans, however what they’re saying shouldn’t be true. As I wrote, when Ron DeSantis introduced his plan to shoot migrants carrying backpacks as they arrive throughout the Southern border, 84% of the Fentanyl that comes into the US arrives by way of ports of entry on vehicles carried in by US residents or vacationers.
Nearly 90% of the Fentanyl shouldn’t be introduced over the southern border by migrants.

Noem is considered on Trump’s shortlist for operating mates in 2024 as a result of the courtroom decided rapist has determined that he wants a lady on the ticket.
South Dakota isn’t wherever close to the southern border, in order that they aren’t on the frontline of something geographically. Opioids are an issue, however Republicans have determined to play into racist immigrant demonization moderately than devise a sound coverage to take care of the disaster.
