Kristi Noem's proud MAGA bimbo act builds on the legacy of Sarah Palin

[Guno צְבִי]

Does Kristi Noem know what habeas corpus is? One thing we know for certain: She would very much like Americans to believe she does not. On Tuesday, the head of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) used a Senate hearing to insist the legal term means the opposite of its actual definition. "Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country and suspend their right to," Noem said through her unnervingly Botox-inflated lips. She was interrupted by Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., who explained to a smug-looking Noem that, no, habeas corpus "requires that the government provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people" and is the reason it's illegal for Donald Trump to round up immigrants and imprison them in foreign gulags without offering a legal reason why.

Was Noem legitimately confused? Jonathan Chait of the Atlantic thinks so, writing that Noem's "ignorance appears to be utterly genuine." After all, "habeas corpus" is a Latin term used by lawyers but not much by laypeople, especially those, like Noem, who got a college degree through online courses at age 40. But I'm not so sure that Noem, who has been neck-deep in this debate about basic human rights for months, is as dumb as she seemed in that moment. Those who keep watching will notice that Noem doesn't act embarrassed when she's corrected, like normal people do when they get something so terribly wrong.

In the world of MAGA, stupidity is a badge of honor for both sexes, but the heads of women need to be thoroughly empty. Book learning, in MAGA-land, is for lesbians and cat ladies. Intelligence gets in the way of the true duties of MAGA womanhood: keeping up your highly artificial appearance and, crucially, defending the man you serve with your whole heart and soul. Especially if said man, in this case Donald Trump, is himself dumber than a box of rocks. It's so much easier to be a yes-woman for such a man if you turn your own brain off completely.

She’s a feminine form of Felonious. It’s why he chose her. It’s why he chose every person in his cabinet.

Yikes.

And to think only a few years ago, right-wing posters here were patting themselves on the back for supposedly being fierce and unwavering defenders of the US Constitution.

Guess all that posturing about being constitutional loyalists wss just a bunch of bullshit.

times of war is a time to suspend such things.

you wanted to do it over the jab, so fuck you in your Nazi face.

how about that?

eh, bitch?

As others have said 'stupidity is the ACTUAL cost of admission to serve in the Magat party' as they have a real disdain for intelligence and excellence as things they do not possess.

It is lead by the most stupid of Magats Trump, who has zero clue what the Declaration of Independence means and its history and followed up perfectly by Bimbo Barbie Noem who has no clue what habeas corpus means, while running one of the top law enforcement agencies in the US.

If you made a satire movie, prior to Trumps 2024 win suggesting Trump and this band of half wits would run the government, even those on the right would have mocked it as over the top and silly while thinking, 'of course he will have smart people in his cabinet'.

And what "imaginary war" are we fighting again? The scary brown people outside?

Seems like your neural network is firing randomly today.

Well, speaking as someone external to this conversation I'd say you look pretty messed up.

I make so much sense that I defeat you in nearly every interaction.

That and her looks. She has a photogenic face which is trump's #1 criteria for female employees.

I bet if he ordered her to wear a swimsuit and high heels instead of normal attire, she'd do it.

One of the hallmarks of the trumper lunatic sleazeball right, is their propensity to feel that they can make something into anything they want to, just by mislabeling it.

When they want to use some war powers clause in the Constitution to justify suspending civil rights but there's no actual war going on, they just call whatever it is that's irritating their tender little backsides a "war" and use it as a false justification.

Classic dictator propaganda technique.
