"You left your blankie on a government jet, so your special employee Corey stepped forward to fire the pilot, midair"

[Miles Archer]

"And while you make a daily mockery of our courts and our Constitution, you're treating the billions of dollars our colleagues showered on your department like a personal slush fund. You budgeted an astonishing $220 million for media consultant contracts so you can star in self-promoting photo shoots," he continued. "You're living rent-free in the official waterfront residence reserved for the commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard."

"You spent $172 million to buy not one, but two luxury jets for your travel, and now you're using taxpayer funds to lease a third jet, a $70 million luxury 737 Max, with a queen-sized bedroom in the back, a deluxe serving bar, and four flat-screen TVs."

"Apparently, when your special blanket, your blankie, was left on one of the government jets and not transported over to the new one, your special government employee, Corey Lewandowski, chivalrously stepped forward to fire the pilot, midair, a 2003 Coast Guard Academy graduate and distinguished U.S. Coast Guard commander," he noted. "But then he had to be rehired immediately because there was no one else who could fly the two of you on the rest of the journey back home."

"Secretary Noem, you're flying high now, maybe even a little bit too close to the sun," Raskin added. "But with all these free planes and houses and pilots, you've traveled a long distance from your actual job and the things you should be doing as head of Homeland Security."

1. Righteous! Nailed it.

And got it in the record.

[AllaN01Bear]

21. ding. this .

[leftstreet]

2. The blanket probably had...you know, "evidence"

just sayin

[PufPuf23]

30. Corey-Noem DNA is where my lower mind went too.

Get that blankie to FBI Quantico for analysis.

Yuck.

[Wicked Blue]

3. I LOVE Jamie Raskin

This congressman has such a razor-sharp way with words.

[efhmc]

4. Why was she hired in the first place?

[Ray Bruns]

8. She does what Trump wants.

[PatSeg]

16. And she has Mar-a-lago face

She fits right in.

[lastlib]

18. "Mar-A-Lago Lips"?

That attach so tightly to the tRump?

[PatSeg]

20. Ha, ha!

When I saw her in a congressional hearing, I found myself wondering how long did it take to put on all that makeup. Then comes the long process of removing all of it! Someone should tell her that often "less is more".

I've seen mannequins that look more natural.

[lastlib]

25. She really looks like she's made of plastic.

Maybe Bruce Springsteen's term applies: "Silicone sister"......

[PatSeg]

27. And with acrylic hair

The lack of self-awareness is stunning, which is also the same with Trump. It sets them up for understandable ridicule.

That kind of makeup is usually reserved for a photo shoot, a stage play, or a motion picture, not real life. She apparently thinks she is a movie star - "I'm ready for my closeup".

[Wednesdays]

28. Tammy Faye Bakker acolyte. nt

[PatSeg]

29. Oh, I'd forgotten about Tammy Faye

She would get weepy over something and her eye makeup would run.

Kristi looks like she has to take off her makeup with a spatula.

[OGBuzz]

32. just like her boss Donald Trump.

[PatSeg]

34. Exactly

He must buy that stuff by the bucket.

[Doc_Technical]

39. Don't forget Jan Crouch.

[PatSeg]

41. Whoa, I wasn't familiar with her!

That's really scary!

[Amaryllis]

23. Yep. Loyalty. Same reason they all were hired.

[33taw]

9. The People of South Dakota

[Prof. P.E. Name]

5. Zucker Bros. "Airplane" Scene

Isn't this Kristi/Corey scene just a little like the Zucker Brothers spoof: firing the pilot mid-flight?

Are some human beings that stupid?

Then we get into philosophy questions: Are MAGATS human beings; what qualifies as Stupid; are MAGATS and Stupid actually synonyms in the taxonomy sense?

[AverageOldGuy]

6. He left out . . .

. . . "And on top of all that stupid shit, you shoot puppies. I yield the rest of my time."

[TheRickles]

7. It's a brilliant put-down, but it won't have any discernible effect on how this Gov't operates.

Until a few R's grow a spine, or resign for medical reasons (or to spend more time with their families), not much is going to change.

[cojoel]

10. If only that pilot had a parachute and left the plane when he was fired...

the world might be a better place today.

[Permanut]

12. Makes perfect sense..

When you're fired, you leave the workplace immediately, right?

[Bengus81]

13. Yeah..and the OTHER pilot would have told that DIPSHIT that legally I can't fly this

aircraft alone.

[colorado_ufo]

11. Didn't she used to have children?

[Bengus81]

14. When does Mr. Puppykiller file for divorce?

[popsdenver]

38. Maybe, just maybe

he is a "kept" man, and true cuckhold and it is an incredible turn on, to being publicly humiliated by her "out in the open" Sexual escapades and Adultery.......

I would hate to be her kids..........

[jmowreader]

15. If that would have happened to me, I'd have been like...okay!

I'd find the first general aviation airport with enough runway to deal with a 737 and set it down. "I understand this airport is 40 miles from nowhere and the nearest hotel is a Motel 6 25 miles past that, but it's illegal for me to fly an airliner after I've been fired from its owner so...here you are. Enjoy Minnesota."

[popsdenver]

40. Hell maybe some piss-ant airport in

RURAL Colorado !!!!!!!!!!! Who knows what NOEM, and Bang-Bang Boebert could dream up for fun....

Hell, Bang-Bang could even teach Noem a few new tricks.....Boebert has no problem, with public hyper sexual displays of affection, with her "Boy Toy", in front of entire Audience at the Denver Center of Performing Arts in Denver, during a sold out play..........
(HD Security Video of all of it, are all over the internet)

[lastlib]

17. "...a little bit too close to the sun."....

So do we make a new nickname for her? "ICK- arus"? (Or, maybe closer to truth, "ICK--a RUSSKY"?....)

[Blue Owl]

31. ...on her wings of racism and hatred....

[Botany]

19. Blankie really means Noem on the Range's sex toys.

You just know that Kristi plays back door cowboy with Corey.

[fargone]

37. The blankie may have been a cover for her tote bag

That could be the reason Corydoras rose to the occasion

[AllaN01Bear]

22. ding . this .

[GiqueCee]

24. After that flaying...

... I doubt there was anything left but hair extensions!
But her kind of incompetence is just what that vindictive sonofabitch, Trumpty-Dumpty, wanted in his cabinet. America failed to bend the knee, kiss his smelly ass, and reelect him in 2020, so he's gonna burn the country to the ground. That's a win-win for him; he gets his vengeance, and avoids defenestration by Pootie-poot.
Goddammit, I hate that evil fuck. He destroys everything he touches. And every Republican Satan ever shat out is going to wear the Scarlet Letter "T" for the rest of their worthless lives.

[Tikki]

26. Didn't that tillis guy say noem was a farmer? I wonder if she got government farm bailout money!

Tikki

[SergeStorms]

33. Did her face slide off....

after that scathing rebuke?

[thesquanderer]

35. Pilot should be thankful he wasn't near a gravel pit at the time. (n/t)

[FakeNoose]

36. Thank you Rep. Jamie Raskin for the magnificent burn

We need to recognize that Rep. Raskin's words were really for us Democratic voters, since the Repukes never listen to anything he says anyway. We already know that Kristi Noem is beyond redemption and totally corrupt. Raskin is counting the days and the reasons for when she's thrown out of her job, and fired or impeached by Congress.
