Kristi Noem

It’s probably possible to figure out how much money the state of South Dakota has invested in public education since statehood.

Prioritize education

Make a permanent tax cut for the people of South Dakota

In order for the National Guard to be activated, the county has to request it. And then I make a decision if it's warranted.

The cartels have a presence on several of South Dakota's tribal reservations. They have been successful in recruiting tribal members to join their criminal activity.

The sheer number of illegal migrants coming into this country has made it so that every state is now a border state.

We're continuing to work through the FEMA process to bring them all the resources that they need.

The first governor to send National Guard to the southern border

If Noem has her way, she’ll shut down 'Sesame Street' and board up 'Downton Abbey.'

He is the toughest man that I have ever met. Nobody has endured more than what he has gone through.

Democrat-run cities across this country are being overrun by violent mobs.

The United States of America is in a time of invasion.

When these election results came in, they clearly said they want a secure border. They want their streets to be safe.

Mr. President, when you were in the White House and I was governor of South Dakota, every single day, I got to get up and be on offense.

Governor Kristi Noem was just confirmed as President-elect Trump's pick for Department of Homeland Security Secretary.

We have a president in the White House today that is ignoring federal law. He is ignoring federal law and allowing people into this country that are incredibly dangerous.

What I have been very clear about is that we don't want to see another January 6th again. Nobody in this country wants to see another day like that again.

I think what's important is that Roe V. Wade and that decision of it being overturned has given the decision back to the people at the state level, and every state will look different.

He needs to pick someone that will help him win. And I think that President Trump is in a fantastic position to win this election. He's strong. He's right on all the policies.

I would say that every day as governor when Trump was in the White House I was on offense. I was able to go out there and solve problems for Americans and for people in my state. With Biden in the White House now I've been on defense.

China's definitely our enemy when it comes to the Communist Party and who it's run by, that government. They've never treated us fairly under our trade agreements.

Joe Biden's policies have just been devastating for the families that live here in this country. Their costs have gone up. They've had less opportunities and they're just really incredibly challenged right now with trying to afford to put…

It'll be a great opportunity for President Trump to talk about his policies and how his policies when he served as president of this country were good for every single family that lived here.

We all know that the Obama administration officials that were route to this D.A.s office in order to bring forward this type of action against President Trump.

I think it really is a day of hope because I see President Trump's still willing to stand up and fight for our freedom.
