The South Dakota economy never shut down, despite enormous pressure from the Left-wing MSM. As such, South Dakota has recovered 80% of their job loses. The people of South Dakota are very lucky to have Kristi Noem. We will surely be hearing more from Governor Noem in the coming years.’
Governor Kristi Noem is the future of the GOP.
South Dakota's economy, having never been shut down, has recovered nearly 80% of our job losses.
We're the only state in the nation that didn't have extended unemployment benefits kick in because our insured unemployment rate has been the lowest in the nation. (2/)

NO THANK YOU South Dakota DECLINES $400 extra unemployment payments from Trump because ‘people in the state don’t need it’
By The Sun, August 16, 2020
SOUTH Dakota’s Republican Governor has declined the $400 federal support saying the state’s residents did not need it.
The state did not shut down during the coronavirus pandemic and Governor Kristi Noem said it was in “fortunate position of not needing to accept it”.
Noem is one of Trump’s most vocal allies and released a statement on on Thursday saying: “My administration is very grateful for the additional flexibility that this effort would have provided, but South Dakota is in the fortunate position of not needing to accept it.
“South Dakota’s economy, having never been shut down, has recovered nearly 80% of our job losses.”
Under Trump’s latest executive order, the government aims to divert billions of dollars in federal disaster assistance to unemployed Americans.
Noem added: “South Dakota is the only state in the nation that didn’t have extended benefits kick in because our insured unemployment rate has been the lowest in the nation.
“We have the third best housing construction market in the country. And many, many businesses are looking to relocate to South Dakota because of the decisions we made during the pandemic.
“South Dakota is open for business – that applies to our business owners and their employees.”
The prospect of a second round of coronavirus stimulus checks are in jeopardy as the Senate left until September without a relief deal.
The Senate left Washington DC on Thursday for summer recess.
The decision to vacate comes after Democrats and Republicans failed to agree on certain terms of the relief package, meaning that the second round of stimulus checks is still pending approval.The recess was technically supposed to begin earlier this week, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell kept the chamber in session in a final attempt to get some sort of package passed.
However, with Democrats and Republicans still butting heads, Senators argued there was little reason to remain in DC with no progress being made, according to The Hill.
The House of Representatives already left DC and are not expected to return until mid-September.
“We will have our regular pro forma meetings through the end of the state work period,” McConnell said as he wrapped up Thursday’s session.
“If the Speaker of the House and the minority leader of the Senate decide to finally let another package move forward … it would take bipartisan consent to meet for legislative business sooner than scheduled.”

VERY IMPRESSIVE! ONLY poss under a GOOD, TRADITIONAL, Republican governor! Possiblly a good Presidential candidate as well?
Amazing isn’t it that in general Republican women are so much more attractive than anything the left has to offer.
Unfortunately they don’t seem to regret it for a very long time instead they just keep adding more and more convinced that the next one they get will make their self image perfect. But it never does.
My eyes…………
I’m BLLLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNDDDDDDDDD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love to see this woman in 15 more years. It reminds me of a friend who had the gut wrenching experience of seeing a woman who appeared to be about 90 in a miniskirt.
That – is scary but at 90? she was a whole lot younger when they were the rage –
Hey its hers to do with what she pleases – don’t freaking look if it offends you that badly –
She Restores my faith in female politicians!
peeple need jobs not more unemployment payments NOR immigrants to get more jobs or to get furriners educated with CIVID19 still hanging around. get with the program !!!!!
What? Why post your rant on my observation? Can’t you work out how to start your own thread?
Exactly what i was saying about the Black Conservative running in Baltimore –
Funny that Liberals take away rights to gain political status and Conservatives just work and save to gain political status. VP for 2024 ?
Elderly usually dont choose the Dakotas to retire in. Could it be she has a low elderly count? Just asking.
Did that say So Dakota has a 2% unemployment rate during CoVid ??? Can Gov. Noem please come to the state of Mask-a-chusetts and show Gov. Charlie Baker (RINO-MA) that 2% is a helluva lot better than his THIRTY SEVEN PER CENT ????? We, actually he, could use a little help here…….
Vote in Republican ( better Conservative) State representatives…… become the Mass of 1776 again. Stop trying to think someone else can solve your problems.
Ummmm…Gov. Baker is the one who needs the help, maybe you missed that. We did vote for a Republican, but he is, like a lot of others….a RINO. You may not know this, but Mask-achusetts is one of the most heavily democRAT states in the union….not many conservatives in these parts.
But thank you for your ill-informed and sarcastic comment anyway….
I wasn’t being sarcastic…. If you are democrats…. then what do you expect. Maybe you need a ground game to start talking sense to your neighnors and families.
The Problem is Leftist Liberalism….Democrats. That’s where the problem lies. The RINO is just doing what he thinks his base wants and what the Socialist legislature there wants.
True Revolutions in thought ( and action) CAN happen !
I am NOT a democRAT….I am not a liberal. Spare me your pious speech…..at least your friend Dork appreciates your snarkiness.
Dork is indeed good.
Thank you, we all have a part to play 🙂
Hi ed, it’s more than that. I appreciate that DA is trying to invoke the American fighting spirit. This is something that I support and agree with. Anyone who stands as a Patriot for this country is deserving of my appreciation. We need to get as many of the Center and Center-Left to jump ship, to walk away from the Democratic Party, if we want true change. And we need to weed out the RINOs who pollute our party.
To be very clear, my comment is in no way intended to say that you are not a Patriot. I have read your comment history as well and I believe we are on the same side of the wheel.
Your contributions are also appreciated.
A beautiful, confident, smart, and wise conservative female Republican Governor. The Left must be gnashing their teeth. This is guaranteed to get demons to manifest themselves in their captives.
Kudos to South Dakota’s governor!
Keep the stimulus check too – or help verifiable people in true need because of this NONSENSE –
