Kristi Noem says the deployment of our South Dakota National Guard to Texas “will be paid for by a private donation.” Kristi Noem has turned our military into mercenaries. It is morally wrong to deploy troops for political purposes using private funds.

Who is the secret donor paying Kristi Noem to send South Dakota’s National Guard to Texas? What if there is a wildfire or other crisis at home in South Dakota during this partisan campaign stunt? Why is the military allowed to be a secret political mercenary force? https://t.co/s4KvUWDOUJ

Sadly, there remains no prospect for additional votes from @SenateGOP to create the National Commission to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the US Capitol. Proposed legislation to establish a Select Committee was drafted & has now been introduced & sent to @RulesDemocrats.

Canada 🇨🇦 has obliterated its national all-time heat record *for the second day in a row*.
Before yesterday, greater than 45°C had never been recorded. As far as climatology is concerned, this is deeply shocking. pic.twitter.com/X9WJgtHgss
I’m old enough to remember when the Olympics was about national pride - not coddling the needs of a few arrogant egomaniac sniveling brat narcissists.

Governor Noem has accepted a private donation to pay for sending South Dakota's National Guard to Texas, with no details being released to the public.

Think about that for a moment.
Our National Guardsmen and women are not professional soldiers for hire, @KristiNoem. pic.twitter.com/UaVOibwmOy
That’s… not how this works.

The National Guard isn’t a mercenary force that can be paid for by ‘private donations’ https://t.co/phTHiM7RQR
Kristi Noem has turned the SD National Guard into mercenaries for a political stunt.
