She should be denied a fuck of a lot more than just bathrooms.

In a statement, village spokesperson David Ormsby said Noem appeared "unannounced" at the Village Hall "asking for a meeting while Mayor Katrina Thompson was out of the building." Thompson, Ormsby said, was instead on her way to meet Noem at the ICE facility.
"Mayor Thompson went to the ICE center, accompanied by the Broadview Police Chief Thomas, and officers, to ask for the illegal fence to be dismantled. The mayor was told by agents at the gate the secretary was unavailable to meet," Ormsby said. "Additionally, we are distressed to hear that the bathrooms are unavailable at the ICE facility.”
That is a much more comprehensive article actually talking about what’s happening. Thanks for posting and I hope more people actually read it rather than diluting the topic
This is what I’m talking about. Your elected representatives live in your towns and cities. DENY THEM SERVICE AND HEALTH CARE
The important thing to note here is that you can say no. Just say no.
It’s too bad that officer didn’t pick her up, carry her, and body slam her onto the pavement like her goons did to Kat Abughazaleh.
Fuck Kristi Noem!
There’s like 4 different cameramen walking with her. State sanctioned reality show.
The entire administration is a reality show. We are being managed by psychopaths who think TV is real.
Welcome to the state of discourse in 2025.
And of course she's whining about being a victim, as fascists do.
"This is what Governor Pritzker calls cooperation"
Here's what Governor Pritzker actually said:
I am ringing an alarm, one that I hope every person listening will heed, both here in Illinois and across the country.
Over the weekend, we learned from the media that Donald Trump has been planning, for quite a while now, to deploy armed military personnel to the streets of Chicago. This is exactly the type of overreach that our country's founders warned against, and it's the reason that they established a federal system with a separation of powers built on checks and balances.
What President Trump is doing is unprecedented and unwarranted. It is illegal. It is unconstitutional. It is un-American.
Donald Trump wants to use the military to occupy a U.S. city, punish his dissidence, and score political points. If this were happening in any other country, we would have no trouble calling it what it is: a dangerous power grab.
Earlier today in the Oval Office, Donald Trump looked at the assembled cameras and asked for me personally to say, "Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city?" Instead, I say, "Mr. President, do not come to Chicago."
You are neither wanted here nor needed here.
Finally, to the Trump administration officials who are complicit in this scheme, to the public servants who have forsaken their oath to the Constitution to serve the petty whims of an arrogant little man, to any federal official who would come to Chicago and try to incite my people into violence as a pretext for something darker and more dangerous: we are watching and we are taking names.
This country has survived darker periods than the one that we are going through right now, and eventually the pendulum will swing back, maybe even next year. Donald Trump has already shown himself to have little regard for the many acolytes that he has encouraged to commit crimes on his behalf.
You can delay justice for a time, but history shows you cannot prevent it from finding you eventually. If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me, not time or political circumstance, from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law.
Yeah, sure sounds like he stabbed you in the back, swearing he's cooperating and all that.
“And if I ever find him, this is what I will say to the tiny fingered man: My name is Governor Pritzker. You harmed my constituents. Prepare to cry.”
OK, now my mind is coming up with a complete reboot of the movie.

Also this bitch puts people in cages with appalling hygiene conditions every fucking day, she can hold it until her bladder explodes for all I care
She does not get to go to the bathroom in my presence until she shows me her genetalia.
You mean he. He’s obviously a man trying to use the women’s bathroom, what a creep.
Chris T. No,Man
That's it. No more mystery. Everyone can go home now.
We don't let dog killers in
She’s still just lying blatantly
all we’re doing is getting criminals, and terrorists, and cartels, and gang members off the streets
You didn't know all them kids they've rounded up are big time drugs runners?
They'll let the kids go after they use them as hostages trying to force people out of their homes

I thought she wanted bathroom police to deny people entry.
Yeah, maybe they just didn't have enough genital inspectors on staff to clear her entry.
Well, considering past tactics, they may have feared for their own safety.

I hate that no one in government is doing anything about any of this. They're not even talking about it.
The government is doing everything about this. It's literally being done entirely by the government.
If you want the government to be doing the opposite thing about this, the time for action was during the past few elections, before the fascists got control over all three branches. Best the dems can do now is try to lock things up as best they can. Maybe by shutting down the government or something idk.
Amen brother
If everywhere you go people aren't nice to you, what's the common denominator? This is like elementary school level emotional intelligence.
“If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole.”
If you smell shit everywhere you go, it's time to check your shoes.
They dont care so long as they can punish people of color. They see themselves as better or above, and everyone else is lesser, inferior, or even livestock. they simply dont understand why anyone would care about a person with darker skin. So, in their minds, they have done nothing wrong.
Fuck you. You aren't welcome. We don't want you in our city.
She could always go to that library she barred the Canadians out of. They have a bathroom for her I’m sure.
She might go in there and be trans! Does she not respect their right to police the bathroom?
They bravely prevented her from catching trans. She didn’t even say thank you.
She does look like she’s in full drag to me.
“As much as these local leaders and governors talk about cooperating and having the backs of our law enforcement officers, this is what we have to put up with every single day,” she said. “And all we’re doing is getting criminals, and terrorists, and cartels, and gang members off the streets.”
lol it's the escalator story all over again
Ice aren’t law enforcement. They’re kidnappers
Those two things aren't mutually exclusive.
Conservative challenge: try to make a post on twitter without prepending "BREAKING:".
They're just indicating what they're doing. They're breaking everything.
@Redditsux Amazing! So much shit comes out of her mouth that I wouldn't think she needed to use one!
Fuck.This.Bitch.
Also fuck the streamer she rode in on in the ass, because we know how they feel about that.
seriously? this is NOT news, this is just noise. There are other far more important things to be upset about than this. . .
ha ha
