New details have emerged about the taxpayer-funded ad campaign featuring ousted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem riding on horseback.

The $143 million ad campaign shows the 54-year-old Noem on horseback in front of Mount Rushmore praising President Donald Trump and warning undocumented migrants that her agents will deport them, but Democratic lawmakers are demanding records from the Ohio-based political consulting firm The Strategy Group about the no-bid contract inked with DHS, reported The Daily Beast.

"Now filings passed to the Daily Beast reveal the eye-watering cost of putting Noem on a horse and plastering makeup on her face," the website reported.

She might have lost her other fascist wet dream in the making job, but she is still around with other lackeys doing the same shit in other agencies.........and just to add further insult to this shit show she said this and he said this BS.........

Noem told lawmakers in a hearing earlier this month that Trump had signed off on the campaign, but he denied doing so after he fired her.
