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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

I question the process for how this trial was conducted by this judge, an activist judge, an activist judge who very much decided how he wanted this to come out.

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.

As soon as President Biden went into the White House, I went on defense. We've had fighting inflation, we've got an open border that's making their communities more dangerous.

I just want him to win and he knows that. I've told him that before, is that, sir, I just want you to win because I know how different life was when you were in the White House making the decisions.

It's complete different judicial treatment and that is what is being undermined in our country that I think is so unfortunate, so devastating to us going forward.

You know, as governor, I've had the chance to serve as governor under President Trump and under Joe Biden. And every day that President Trump was in the White House, I had the chance to be on offense for my families in South Dakota.

It should have never been allowed and it should be stopped today.

I'm disappointed that President Joe Biden didn't take action immediately to stop these violent crimes against the Jewish people that have happened on our own college campuses right here in the United States of America.
