Nothing to see here….
Every single one of them in this administration is corrupt and unqualified for their jobs. None of them are remotely for the people or the nation.
*From Animal Farm by George Orwell (1945*):
“You have heard then, comrades,” he said, “that we pigs now sleep in the beds of the farmhouse? And why not? You did not suppose, surely, that there was ever a ruling against *beds*? A bed merely means a place to sleep in. A pile of straw in a stall is a bed, properly regarded. The rule was against sheets, which are a human invention. We have removed the sheets from the farmhouse beds, and sleep between blankets. And very comfortable beds they are too! But not more comfortable than we need, I can tell you, comrades, with all the brainwork we have to do nowadays. You would not rob us of our repose, would you, comrades? You would not have us too tired to carry out our duties? Surely none of you wishes to see Jones back?”
Taxpayer funded luxury jets help fight socialism!
“Drain the swamp,” eh?
Not even a remote possibility it could be from the 800 million they cut from Medicaid benefits, is it… Letting people die so she can make the world less habitable. They are nakedly evil.
Everything these people do is so vile and vapid.
It amazes me that they are so bold in their corruption.
The sheer lack of personal morals required to abuse the system at the expense of Americans is beyond my comprehension.
Does she get to keep them after her term? Seems to be how this works in Trump world.
When our representatives can’t travel among the public, you know they’re on the wrong track.
But DOGE and cut spending and stuff
I just saw an interesting documentary about scientific research in Antarctica and how the US Coast Guard was still using a 40-year-old icebreaker (which seemed to be held together by duct tape and chewing gum) to clear shipping lanes to the continent, and how touch-and-go that whole operation really is right now.
So Noem, the dog and goat killer, gets not one but *two* private jets from this agency…? How was she getting around before this?
Just to get her to photo ops or wherever else her handler dictates.
“Government shutdown for thee but not for me”
I get it,one jet for her and one jet for her makeup.
Well, of course they’re private jets. Even she doesn’t want to go through TSA and watch that video.
Everyone getting ready to fly to Russia once this regime collapses.
Why the fuck does she get TWO?!?!?! 🖕🤔
The angry silicone valley libertarians that are funding every part of this war on the poor. Where do you think?!!
From tax dollars. That’s all you need to know
The trials should be televised…
Is a 20 year old jet not worth refitting with updated avionics and comms? How many hours did the bought and paid for existing jet have on it? The Department of Homeland Security probably barely used it before this twit came along.
She probably doesn’t like the old plane because it smells like Alejandro Mayorkas’ farts.
🖕🖕🖕her – scumbag
Way better than heslthcare
Once we get normalcy back in I think we are going to find they spent over a trillion five in new debt on credit.
So it’s just jets for everyone huh?
She probably gets a bonus for every citizen her bench men detain…a bonus paid for by US…and can be used to enhance her position but not her personal finances…thus the planes not a new house
Meanwhile fed workers are unpaid, some have to still go in and work unpaid.
JetS? Plural!? One is bad enough, why do you need multiple!?
“Earlier this year, the United States Coast Guard requested in its budget a single long-range Gulfstream V jet estimated to cost $50 million to replace an aging one used by Noem”
So where did the additional $122M come from to buy two jets. When they budgeted for 1?
Drain the swamp… so we can dig the swamp a little bit deeper and then refill it.
From getting denied bathrooms to getting her own flying one talk about an upgrade.
The extent of the raiding of the national treasury is breathtaking. Ballrooms, jets, thug ICE army, etc.
While the government employees are not being paid. Wow. That’s the way to do it.
Especially when Congress isn’t in session.
It used to be that politicians would get yelled at if they had a high-end dinner. Nowadays a jet for this axxhole?
She must give great head.
But this we can afford, right? Not all of the things we actually need, but this!
And yet, no money for SNAP. Really putting that whole 6 to 9 meals to societal collapse to the test this holiday season. Bold strategy. Let’s see how it plays out.
National Sales Tax and Spend Republicans
The price of those jets is really nothing compared to their maintenance and operating costs. They are giant money holes.
86 million per jet? The math ain’t mathing.
