Yet another thing to make us laugh about Krispi. Her introduction to her new nonsense job did not go well for her. She was not up with Trump. She was in the audience. Ah, how the not-so-mighty have fallen. Let’s give her a 5-second pity party. Are you ready? Awwwww. Moving along, she was humiliated. With gratitude to Raw Story:
Newly appointed “Special Envoy for the Shield of Americas” Kristi Noem made her debut in Florida Saturday morning to witness Donald Trump promote his new “Security Initiative in the Western Hemisphere,” but was not invited to the lectern to speak to the assembled South American dignitaries despite her lofty status. That led to MS NOW’s Ali Velshi to smirk at her exclusion because Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth were invited to stand with the president, as well as speak, during the ceremonies, while Noem sat in the audience.
SCORCHED. She must have felt like a second grader being told to sit in the corner. She had to have been mortified, but she had only herself to blame. As a side note, looks like Petey Boy is still good with Trump, which sucks. We don’t even know what her new job is supposed to *be*. We only have the fancy title. Do you think we’ll ever find out? Or is it a title with pay and no work to be done? Yes, being mean here. But again, she brought it on herself.
Noem was shifted to her new position in the Trump administration after being unceremoniously fired by Trump on Truth Social and replaced by Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), who still faces Senate approval to take over as the new head of Homeland Security. Noem has previously expressed excitement about her invite to Trump National Doral, where the gathering was held, taking to X and writing, “Thank you, @POTUS Trump, for appointing me as the Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas. @SecRubio and @SecWar are incredible leaders, and I look forward to working with them closely to dismantle cartels that have poured drugs into our nation and killed our children and grandchildren.”
That was some fancy tap-dancing there. Have to make Trump look good again. (SecWar? Hooey.) It was a bit surprising that she got fired, even though we had been hoping for it. But she should have known better than to make her boss look bad. She should have known how touchy he is about image. Her image was already poor after the debacles in Minneapolis. But lying just takes the cake.
Sharing clips of the proceedings, with Noem seen speaking with some attendees, Velshi quipped, “Notably, the newly minted special envoy of the Shield of the Americas did not take the podium with the president at the summit. In case you don’t know who that is, that is the newly ousted or the ousted DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. She’s been named the envoy to the Shield of America.” “She was there by the way,” he dryly added. Noem later spoke during a group lunch with attendees.
Yup, mortifying. She’s going to have to do some fancy dancing to get back in his good graces again, but she won’t get that DHS position back. As I often say, these people don’t think before they speak. And here is our first example of why you don’t do that! Don’t ever make Trump look bad if they’re in his ‘cabinet’, because he will eventually punt you out the door. And if we thought Gnome was bad, Mark-My-Words-He-Sucks-Wayne Mullin is going to be worse. He’s an even bigger idiot. His mouth works, but his idiot brain isn’t attached. He just blurts things out. Au revoir, Krispi, we knew you too well.
See you soon!
Friends, I know everyone begs you for money. I promise that among all those asking for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a group of old, disabled people, except for one writer in his mid-50s. The rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the chance to keep telling the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
