At least she didn’t use an open bid process to identity a winning campaign and the steal their IP to give to an out-of-state political ally who she thought would get her closer to Trump. .. well.. this time at least. southdakotasearchlight.com/2024/01/08/f...

Snidley had an endearing villainous charm, at least. This little tyke is pretty much the unpaid incel intern that Whiplash had to let go on his first day... off a cliff.

They've done it here with Lakota, too (where we're told by out-of-state Blue-Anons [posting from Belarus or Santa Monica] that Noem is making ICE go light on us since it's her "home state." 🙄)
ICE seems to have little training on how to verify who they stop. They're paid by arrest, not conviction.

True. The question is, will they and can they find someone who will do it?

The clock on SoL gets an extension, so in theory, DOJ can get Comey's adequately done. Still, given the public humiliation of the real lawyers representing the State with Halligan, I think it's going to be harder to do that. They can't do everything in the Cannon's courthouse.

They’re targeting Native Americans (as in Berengial Pedestrians) too here in SD. They are running on a per-capture rubric, not accuracy.

I got tired of seeing photon torpedos in the TOS movie era. I perked up when SNW’s Enterprise fired its first phaser in that disturbing one with the kid but afterwards saw that they went back to boring ones. All we have now are fan vids.
