Can we just revoke her work visa, and deport her back to the US?

We don't want any.

No takesies-backsies!

Ew. Can we not? Send her back.

THIS is the best they can find? Hilarious.

Considering how stupid this person is, makes one wonder if their hiring her for her connections.

Kichae@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 69d

This is why most connected people get jobs.

I have to admit, that didn't occur to me. I think you are probably right.

Canada hosts some of the worst companies in the world, mining conglomerates being chief amongst them along with a bunch of shady oil related firms.

She gained national attention during the COVID-19 pandemic for opposing statewide mask mandates in favor of voluntary measures. Noem has conservative positions on most domestic issues, particularly gun rights, abortion, and immigration.

In January 2026, Noem defended the killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti by federal ICE agents, before any investigation, which led some lawmakers to call for her resignation or impeachment. In March 2026, Noem appeared before the Senate Committee on the Judiciary after reports emerged of her alleged relationship with her subordinate, Corey Lewandowski, and of her misuse of government funds on television advertisements and private luxury jets, as well as inappropriate use of U.S. Coast Guard assets and housing.

Her testimony before the committee intensified criticism from Congress. After the congressional hearing, Trump announced his decision to remove Noem from DHS.

I feel like they should mention her position on shooting puppies in the face.

Archangel1313@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 70d

To be fair...it was allegedly a "bad dog". /s

also 3 horses whom she deemed "too old" in a ditch, a smelly goat, and likely a previous pet dog.

The world is a weird place when the “conservative” view on abortion and immigration is to dispose of them. She definitely wants to conserve gun rights though.

PapaStevesy@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 70d (8 replies)

Please, take her

Haven't we done enough to Canada lately?

PapaStevesy@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 70d (6 replies)

True. What we need is full ostracization, but that's difficult in a society with no space between borders. Has science figured out demi-planes yet? We could just lose her between realities.

RodgeGrabTheCat@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 70d

Dump her on Lian Yu.

International waters exist.

We have oceans we could throw her in.

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 3 pts · 70d (1 reply)

send her into the yukon wilderness.

HikingVet@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 69d

Thats still Canada. We. Don't. Want. Her.

resipsaloquitur@lemmy.cafe · 1 pts · 70d

Or Leavenworth.

Traitors...?

regedit@lemmy.zip · 4 pts · 69d

Haha, now Canadia has Noems!

She'll be in heaven if she visits any of the reservations where wild gangs of dogs run free. She could single-handedly fix the issue of the occasional child getting killed by those wild dog gangs. Def a silver-lining from an old hag.
