Noem is not who she claims to be. Yet another Deep State sleeper. She likely has ties to SD Deep State including ties to Tom Daschle who got forced out of Senate in 2004 (via behind the scenes operators?).

In the 2004 Senate election, John Thune defeated Daschle by 4,508 votes, 50.6% to 49.4%.[24] It was the first time that a Senate party leader had lost a bid for reelection since 1952, when Barry Goldwater defeated Ernest McFarland in Arizona.[25]
