Kristi Noem calls for new travel ban after National Guard shooting

Source: NBC News

Dec. 1, 2025, 11:28 PM EST


Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Monday she is recommending a "full travel ban" from countries that are "flooding our nation with killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies."

"I just met with the President. I am recommending a full travel ban on every damn country that’s been flooding our nation with killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies," Noem wrote on X.

"Our forefathers built this nation on blood, sweat, and the unyielding love of freedom—not for foreign invaders to slaughter our heroes, suck dry our hard-earned tax dollars, or snatch the benefits owed to AMERICANS.WE DON’T WANT THEM. NOT ONE," she added.

The Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to a request for comment about which countries Noem was referring to Monday night. President Donald Trump shared her X post on Truth Social but did not comment on it.

The crimes highlighted by Fox/OANN/News Max etc and talking points about benefits going to refugees and asylum seekers.

I’m guessing that only Western European countries will be excluded from the ban.

who massacred the indigenous residents. Noem is from South Dakota, home to a large Native population. How tone deaf can a person be?

So will the U.S. ban the GOP?
Trump's merry band of bandits, grifters, tax-dodgers and gun nuts?

Asking for a friend.

"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me: I lift my lamp beside the golden door" (Emma Lazarus).
So Noem would be in favor of changing the Statue of Liberty and replace the torch with a big sign that says "Whites Only." She echoes Hitler's "vermin" language when she speaks about people as "leeches."
Our country has the unique benefit of some of the most intelligent people in the world wanting to live here. Most Americans are now blends of many different races and cultures. So who decides if one is racially pure enough to deserve to remain here? And if all immigrants were kicked out, it would cause an economic collapse. The people of this current regime are just inventing enemies to maximize their social control and oppression over all people-- citizen and non-citizen alike.

of South Dakota is a taker state. Meaning they get more in federal funding that they pay in federal taxes. Bloodsuckers??? Talk about socialism!
