      From the article:

      >Homeland Security Secretary and MAGA hardliner Kristi Noem got a fact-check to her face during her Thursday morning House hearing when Democratic Representative Seth Magaziner brought in a special guest.

      >“How many United States military veterans have you deported?” Magaziner asked Noem.

      >“Sir, we have not deported U.S. citizens or military veterans.”

      >Little did she know there was one staring right at her.

      >“Madame Secretary, we are joined on Zoom by a gentleman named Sae Joon Park. He is a United States Army combat veteran who was shot twice while serving our country in Panama in 1989,” Magaziner said. “Like many veterans, he struggled with PTSD and substance abuse after his service…. A purple heart recipient, he has sacrificed more for this country than most people ever have. Earlier this year you deported him to Korea, a country he hasn’t lived in since he was seven years old. Will you join me in thanking Mr. Park for his service to our country?”

      >Noem initially refused to even acknowledge Park, who was staring blankly on an iPad held up near Magaziner.

      Get rid of all these American war veterans to make way for the who’s who of rich people that will vote for other rich people.

      If he’s going to do this I say he should have to raise the wage to at least $20 an hour so people who want to can save up and go apply for visas in other countries, since he’s turning the country into a trash can for the elite.

      Receipts were brought and Noem looked like a damn fool the whole time, as well as the cronies she brought.

      This was without a doubt the greatest part of the whole thing

    4. According to the article, Park was issued a removal order sometime around 2012, but it wasn’t enforced until recently as he was checking in regularly. If anything, it shows that the US really needs to fix its policy of „you have been issued a deportation order and must leave…but if you keep checking in with us, we’ll ignore it“. Either deport them or allow them to stay permanently.

      It doesn’t matter if you earned your keep through blood, sweat, tears, or mental wounds in service to this country. It doesn’t matter if you have demonstrated more civic competency (via naturalization), and love for this country than a natural born citizen. It doesn’t matter if Trump’s own administration made former promises to people who were in fear of being deported, since they always intended to break them. Right now, it’s all about passing the „Paper bag“ test.

      Don’t worry. MAGA defended her by saying he’s a green card holder and therefore not a citizen so it’s okay he was deported, service of not.

      They are gunning for her impeachment. Couldn’t tell them where Antifa was located. Just simply lied about deporting children. Kept blaming the Biden administration for immigrants just simply being here but didn’t take accountability for how they were being removed.

      That is awfully bad, but her answer to “what is habeas corpus” still stands as the most humiliating face-to-face fact check of her disgusting life.

      This administration is somehow both absurdly dangerous and Rocky and Bulwinkle levels of cartoonishly evil

      Department of Homeland Security offices, interior, a door rapidly opens, the secretary strides in:

      RIDICULOUSLY UNQUALIFIED FUNCTIONARY: we were all watching, Madam Secretary, we thought it went doubleplus good!

      ICE BARBIE: Get me some fucking puppies to shoot, and do it now!

      RIDICULOUSLY UNQUALIFIED FUNCTIONARY: Right away, Ma’am!

      ICE BARBIE: And make sure that at least half of them are crippled, cripple them yourself if you have to!

      RIDICULOUSLY UNQUALIFIED FUNCTIONARY: I live to serve!

      ICE BARBIE:Good! Now run my warm bath of separated family tears and set it up on the Killing Floor! And don’t forget the bench rest for my AR!

      [Camera fades as the secretary rapidly begins disrobing and stimulating herself.]

      I mean, question at the end of the day would be around accountability towards improper procedures… looking like a fool on a public inquiry yields a couple of hours of stress, and then you are happy to keep doing the same thing with zero repercussions. At the end of the day, all a waste of time just for show

      Oh man. SNL is going to go balls deep up into her business this week.

      I cant wait. It’s gonna be 🔥

    13. lol.. you think this matters to her? Or any of them? THEY DO NOT CARE! That was not an “own” for her. She was mentally checked out that whole time. Watch it again and ask yourself if that was someone who looked disturbed by the situation or just actually cared at all about deporting someone who has done more for this nation then she will ever do in her miserable existence.

    14. Would love to see video of her while they bright the video chat guy on. Did she ever acknowledge him as a vet? I didn’t see any video in the article

      What, no comment on Dem Bennie Thompson of Mississippi who stated that the two bullets put into the back of a 20 year old woman’s National Guards head was an unfortunate incident. Your wrong asshat, it was premeditated murder. How do people like this get elected. Yet these above comments are all about Noem. What a disgusting group you are.

    16. RedHighlander on

      The article says “he was forced to self deport earlier this summer”. What is “self deport”?

    17. Shame or embarrassment isn’t one of their feelings. MAGA will just get pissed she was “treated so badly” and say she OWNED THE LIBS QUESTIONS

    18. Next_Archer_6605 on

      It’ll be both funny and infuriating when these people flea the country once this madness fucking ends. It’s baffling how brazen they are.

    19. ThePissedOffLurker on

      A small sliver of good news is she had a harder time this time than she did in front of congress earlier in the year.

    20. I’d say the thing that made this exchange work so well is Rep. Magaziner *didn’t argue.* It’s not just a matter of calling out the BS; you also have to just move on without them when they can’t acknowledge the truth. You know they’ll just keep lying, so don’t even bother trying.

    21. She had the same look her family dog had, before, you know, he lost the MAGA Squid Game.
