    1. Me too. Was looking for reader tips. I was going to post a couple of 1970s German TV music videos last night.

  1. “Dr. Fauci is wrong a lot.”

    So is Dr. Two-Bags, as well as xim/xer/xit’s counterparts in B. C. and Alberta.

      1. “It’s not acceptable to protest.”

        Sure, Bonnie….. you act like Lucretia Borgia or Lady Macbeth, you destroy businesses and people’s lives, and you’re the victim when people aren’t rejoicing at your idiot policies? (Notice how close to tears she came.)

    1. Sgt. Schultz Roussin in MB, science be damned, enacts polices based on political correctness, mob-polling of people that are already scared shitless, and an irrational need to cater to the pro-lockdown, pro-mask radical left wing socialists. Colonel Klink Pallister is totally compromised by the NWO Globalists.

  2. The lady has presidential qualities.
    Don’t know if she went to the ‘Ivy Ligue’ school.
    If not, watch for the hate propaganda to begin real soon.

    1. B.A. from South Dakota State University which means that unlike the Ivy Leagues, she might have learned how to think rather than taught what to say.

    2. My husband and I watched Kristi Noam’s speech; she’s a very intelligent, strong and practical woman. The GOP have many young people who have experience, integrity and depth. I think 2024 is going to be an exciting one for Republicans.

  3. Meanwhile Justin groupie Rosemary Barton at the CBC is excited that Great Leader Blackie was on NBC this morning. Our little girly boy explained how wonderful he is doing with vaccine deliveries and his other great achievements that Canadians worship him for.

  4. They also have one of the lowest populations and population densities of all the states. Despite those massive advantages they have the 8th highest Covid deaths per capita.

    South Dakota is a massive failure.

    1. And two wks ago – watched a Live rodeo from Rapid City – no masks – everybody sitting close together having a wonderful time ! Guess they just didn’t realize they would soon all be dead – if not from Covid – at least from fear !!!!!

      1. Yeah, just like all the bikers that gathered last year for Sturgis. They had a good time, and didn’t die.

      1. Not unlike Saskatchewan which as self-distanced since we became a province. Instead we shut down, how many businesses have gone under, how many jobs lost etc etc. etc. And our rates still go up. Mainly because test so much and count everything as covid. If we had tested as much for seasonal flu as we do for covid, we would have shut down EVERY winter.

      2. The largest city in SD is 170k. Population density is directly correlated to how fast a virus can spread.

    2. What’s even more hilarious is that if they wanted a decent slam on excessive and nonsensical COVID restrictions not really helping while causing unneeded problems, they could just compare Cali and Florida. But of course they have to Full Retard. And don’t know what ‘per capita’ means apparently lol.

      1. You obviously don’t. You clearly don’t understand its purpose. Or any other statistical comparisons for that matter.

    3. Too bad about that thing called context. Do you even evaluate your assumptions, or do you just rely on confirmation bias?
      Man your one size fits all battle stations and damn the data. This is one of those better to keep quiet moments for you.
      All in, SD 213 deaths/100K of population. NY? 8,411. They shut down good and tight and still killed droves of seniors.
      That’s .213%. Yes, above the national average of .156% (also low), but without a shutdown and in pretty cold cattle country.
      There’s a disaster in NY, not SD maxing out at 600 hospitalizations of 850,000 population, with a third of capacity remaining.
      Who forgot to tell Cuomo hospitals generally operate near or at capacity? Seems more like a case for lockdowns don’t “work.”
      How would we have responded to a truthful “we just need two weeks to a year to flatten the curve, to get back to normal?”

    4. How many Mexicans living 12 to a 2 Bed house like here in CA ? How many dirty Mexicans not washing their hands per capita in SD? Those are the real questions to be asking … if you actually care about the “granular data” we were promised by Bureaucrat-Birx

      1. We have many “Temporary Foreign Workers” working in the various Alberta meat packing plants.
        TFW’s prioritise purchasing expensive automobiles over nice living quarters. Thus, to them, saving money to buy said auto by bunking up is preferred. I don’t begrudge them for that approach but I don’t condone it either.
        Unfortunately, these living arrangements result in one ill person infecting the rest of the household very quickly. And, most living there work at the same meat packing plant. Being prudent, they tend to travel to work together.
        Despite this, UFCW likes to blame the meat packer for the TFWs’ COVID outbreak and the corrupt MSM just runs with the narrative rather than find out the truth.

        1. My “crude” label of “Mexicans” has been ‘euphemized’ by Gavin Newsom as “essential workers”. Yes, every cherry-picking meat packer is “essential” … in fact SO essential that they are paid slave wages as if there is an unlimited supply of those busy hands. See how it works? If you rebrand “slave” as “essential worker” … elites can feeeeeel better about themselves.

          And if your restrictive house-building policies such as; mandating solar panels, and rampant NIMBYism force those “essential workers” to live in overcrowded “cages” … well … don’t be surprised if your cheap slave laborers spread disease from within their overcrowded cages.

          Meanwhile … all such “granular data” MUST be hidden and ignored. Instead … let’s just report the big, broad, data … all without any context … or nuance … Right?

    5. And in a two man race the loser finishes second and the winner finishes next to last. Your ranking is meaningless without context.

    6. there you go alla ASS, no context as per usual for you lefties. So throw in the reduction of death by suicide, medical, as in can’t get treatment for other life ending ailment, and a whole plethora of other deaths avoided. You lefties can never think beyond the surface of the issue, because you are a logic /math idiot. So tell what the reduction in usual flue deaths are in SD, and subtract that from the *covid* count OK McStupid!

    7. Yet the economy didn’t go into the toilet and still it has a lower death rate per million than the Democrat sewers. South Dakota did a great job.

      1. Barely lower than only a handful of states. They are 8th in deaths per million despite having huge advantages over most states. Low population, low population density, late virus arrival, no international airport.

    8. Oh so low population density is now an advantage? Where were you when PM Baked Potato and his merry band of lobotomized UnMes decided to prioritize Nunatwat and other remote communities with vaccine delivery? Because, you know, they were in the greatest of dangers?

        1. Oh really, pray tell what variables play a role in rural communities in Canada that don’t play a role in US. Do go on.

    9. Ah a media swallowing dumpster pipes up.

      North Dakota and South Dakota are litterally in reality the same state. Same population genetics( N. European ), age, climate, income, education, life style and as you point out density.
      North Dakota under Democrat Gov went full lockdown.
      South stayed most open in US.
      Difference in cases?
      Difference in deaths?
      Under 5%

  5. Governor Kristi Noem will soon get the Sarah Palin treatment. The Democrats will attempt to destroy her and her family because she maybe, might be a threat to the Democrats nationally.

    Local Dakota Democrats at the direction of the Democrat National Party will soon barrage her with baseless slimy smears. Watch how the cowardly, self centered corporate RINO Establishment Republicans do not defend her.

    Don’t Believe me? Look at how they are already going after Florida Governor DeSantis. He is another governor that did well battling the Chinese Coronavirus. Florida is full of seniors, but Florida didn’t kill their seniors in job lots like New York and New Jersey.

    By putting sick seniors into nursing homes, New York Democrat Governor Cuomo killed over 10,000 NY Seniors that wouldn’t have died if he had managed senior citizen safety better. He purposefully shoved sick sniors into nursing homes, AND he prevented the nursing homes from even testing the new arrivals to determine if they had the Wuhan COVID. Cuomo got an Emmy for recklessly killing four times as many New Yorkers as Osama Bin Laden.

    1. Noem has gotten the Palin treatment for months. She is infinitely smarter than those bozo journalists and doesn’t take their crap.

    2. rd – I remember John McCain and his advisors throwing the 2008 election and Mitt Romney doing the same thing in 2012. Obama had a halo back then.

    1. Wow. That was an amazing speech! I seldom watch any video that is longer than a couple of minutes but I watched that right til the end.

  6. Im not surprised that the same idiots that bought Trumps BS also guzzle this stuff down like a bukkake whore.

    1. Fowl mouthed ill tempered troll from the demo rat camp who can not count past 5 without taking his shoe off. Needless to say still living in the basement with a blanket and the pointy tinfoil hat.

    2. These people are retarded. I’m just glad most of them are going to die off over the next 20 years. Also glad that they are in all likelihood never going to be in a position of power again. Their political pull wanes by the day.

      1. Yup, the disaster is coming that will kill us all, repent and live exactly as we tell you, or you’re all gonna die! was 20 years away in the 1960s and is still 20 years away.

        Doesn’t it bother you that all of these “you’re all gonna die!” predictions have been completely without merit? Or do you think that Occam’s Razor says that that means that the next one is more likely to come true?

        1. 500,000 Americans have died

          And it’s been you twerps who ranted and raved about Sharia law coming to Europe or something. You really have no leg to stand on.

          1. Really? Now count the actual number of deaths, NOT the deaths of the 92 year old who had a terminal cancer diagnosis and 20 years of kidney disease, but happened to test positive for covid in his last dying days, so bingo he is a covid death.

            The UK is already coming under the gun for doctors listing almost every death as a covid death even without a positive test.

          2. Idiot.
            How many people die in the US each year from ALL causes?
            How many EXCESS deaths are there in 2020 as opposed to 2019?
            And how many of those excess deaths can be attributed to causes other than Covid (drug overdose, suicide, unresolved non-Covid medical conditions such as cancer etc)?
            Until you can answer those questions honestly and objectively, piss off little troll. And take Allan S-head with you.

          3. They do every year, especially the very old. Your point is??
            Do you even know anyone who has died from Covid? The “pandrmic” has involved a great deal of fear mongering. Very few governments have behaved rationally.

          4. Patience. 1st … eliminate all white mans law. Ignore and bypass the US Constitution. The ensuing Mayhem and Chaos in the streets will have the populace BEGGING for Sharia Law. See how it works?

          5. The death rate is ultimately 100%. It doesn’t really bother you that people died. What’s bothering you is that they were permitted to any extent to live as they pleased.

      2. You want to boast about the morrow?

        Then let me indulge in a daydream in which I get to watch every last Ottawa parasite being ordered by gunpoint onto trucks with their whores and bastards by agents of the provisional government of liberated North America, while their debt-slaves who aren’t helping themselves to their masters’ goods jeer and curse them as they go, resting assured that the parasites will finally get what they deserve.

        To see your face as your own father shouts “And stay gone, faggot!” will be worth it.

        1. The difference is my fantasy is happening in the real world while yours is just, well, fantasy and will stay that way.

          1. Thank you for admitting that you fantasize about the deaths of your political opponents when you say “I’m just glad most of them are going to die off over the next 20 years.”?

            We wish you would learn and get out of this adolescent level understanding. I’ve never wished for your death (only your silence and comprehension).

            Do you understand the level of evil to which you’re admitting?

          2. Note to those fantasizing about the DEATH of their political rivals … I have raised 3-children (and ensuing grandchildren) to THINK and to seek the TRUTH. Inotherwords, I raised them as conservatives. So my death will have resulted in a multiplication of conservatives. It looks as though you will have to shift from a passive “waiting for death of some Boomers” … to an active Maoist ELIMINATION of rivals. When you have to murder to convince the public to follow your beliefs … you’ve already LOST. Yes … that UnHuman is a loser.

          3. You guys have to understand where he’s coming from. He doesn’t see his desire for your death as a genocidal impulse because he legalistically clings to the fact that it’s only nature taking its course. Don’t be offended. This is the twat that wants to abolish children after all.

          4. Why are you people letting this c**t troll you? Insult it, ridicule it, don’t argue with it and for crying out loud don’t be morally outraged in your reactions to its trolls. That is exactly what it wants.

      3. I’m so old I can remember lefty pantywaists wetting themselves over Global Cooling and the earth freezing, and oceans receading.

        Later they Soviet like did a 180 and forgetting their last crusade, went all in on Global Warming and flooding. Now its Climate Change so they got the ice vs hot covered, depending.

  7. South Dakota took the morally justified course of action, which is that if you are part of a group that may be at risk for severe illness as a result of Covid, then the onus is on you to take steps to isolate yourself from others who may transmit the disease to you. There is, however, no guarantee that this will always be successful. If you are still working, you may have to work in an environment which was not designed for social distancing. It is not acceptable, however, to declare that certain businesses must close and others must have restricted hours and court bankruptcy in order to allegedly protect your health. You would need to make a causal connection between the operation of a particular business and an adverse affect on your health in order to get that charge to stick.

    1. They managed to kill the most vulnerable in the seniors homes despite their best efforts.
      Early last year they had special store hours for the elderly. That, along with social distancing, would have worked fine for the at risk but the early hours went out the window once they started with the lock-downs.

      “..If you are still working, you may have to work in an environment which was not designed for social distancing.” NOT.
      If you are at risk, you get to sit at home like government workers and get covid pay. FIFY.
      This work thing is an obsession whiteys need to get over.

  8. Kenny called out Gov. Noem in a press conference last week. Pointing out that Alberta’s death rate is lower than theirs… hence lockdowns work.

    Not sure correlation matches causation there.

    1. Is Kenny counting suicides on account of lock-downs or deaths from people not getting medical treatment or increased drug addiction and overdoses or deaths from untreated cancers down the road or psychological impacts from prolonged lockdowns?
      But let’s attribute the excess deaths to covid.

  9. There is nothing remarkable in what Kristi Noem states here. The problem is we’ve stumbled so far down the rabbit hole, well beyond anything Alice encountered in her topsy-turvy Wonderland, that what was once considered common sense seems to have taken up residence on another planet entirely.

  10. Apologies in advance for my crudeness, but is there anything hornier than a rock-solid conservative woman!?

    I’m in love. I said this a few years ago but the woman was savaged out of national politics. Is her speech Obama-at-the-DNC-convention, redux?!

    BRAVA! Kristi Noem.

  11. I’m beginning to think that beyond the deliberate manipulations to control the citizenry with fear, it was also mighty convenient that the Trump economy which was roaring, until a few months from an almost guaranteed re-election, then everything was slammed to a halt by “government”. Hmmmm! When you consider the shenanigans during the actual US election, the impeachments and so on, the extra, or additional manipulation of shutting down that economy for political purpose, really ain’t all that far fetched!

  12. The Allan S/UnMes, etc. refuse to acknowledge all the deaths caused by lockdown- from suicide, depression, lost income, elderly being locked in a nursing home with active COVID case by their Democrat governor. 10 million have also been put out of work and into poverty by their ilk. If these sociopaths had any decency, they would sit down and shut up, at this point.

    1. Unme said earlier on another thread today that “he has a degree…..”, so he’s an expert on stuff. He didn’t elaborate on what, though.

        1. If he does and works in his field, he belongs to a Professional Association. Bets nobody likes working with him and bets he isn’t a “Professional” in any capacity, either. They won’t have him with his lip.

  13. You guys are giving Unfree too much airtime, as I am at this juncture.
    That said, yup, he has a degree….a third degree burn on his frontal lobes.
    Anyone, like him, who flaunts that he “ has a degree” is a testimony to those ilk of fucking losers who have a degree and yet, remain stupid and unfree.
    If you need data to back up my comment, just observe what the loser says in all his inane and ineffectual comments…ditto his bum boy, Allan S.
    Peace
