[00:00:00] Did people in Minnesota not know who [00:00:02] Christine Nome is? [00:00:03] >> Why do I love these wide open spaces? [00:00:06] >> They remind me of why our forefathers [00:00:08] came here. Not just for its beauty, but [00:00:10] for the freedom only America provides. [00:00:12] I'm Christine No. [00:00:14] >> We banned her from our reservations in [00:00:16] South Dakota. There's nine federally [00:00:18] recognized tribes in South Dakota and [00:00:21] she was banned from all of them as [00:00:23] sitting governor of the state because of [00:00:26] her outwardly hostile anti-Indian [00:00:29] attitudes. And to kind of put that into [00:00:31] perspective, the life expectancy of [00:00:34] indigenous people in South Dakota is is [00:00:37] a medium age of 58 years old. It's like [00:00:41] more than two decades lower than the [00:00:43] white life expectancy of white South [00:00:46] Dotans. to say nothing of the national [00:00:48] average. There's an active structural [00:00:50] genocide still happening that has no [00:00:52] doubt been exacerbated by Christine [00:00:54] Gnome's policies in the state. She [00:00:56] threatened to call the National Guard on [00:00:59] the health checkpoints that were set up [00:01:01] uh during the CO 19 pandemic when tribes [00:01:04] wanted to manage who was coming on and [00:01:06] off the reservations, which is their [00:01:08] sovereign right to do. She had also [00:01:10] created fusion agencies that were geared [00:01:13] towards policing and criminalizing and [00:01:16] profiling and surveilling water [00:01:18] protectors in South Dakota. We defeated [00:01:20] the Keystone XL pipeline. The tribes [00:01:23] united with all the tribes on the [00:01:24] pipeline route going all the way to [00:01:26] Canada. And that pissed her off in her [00:01:29] administration. And it was almost as if [00:01:32] she was enacting some kind of vendetta [00:01:34] post Standing Rock in 2016 to target and [00:01:37] criminalize Lakota water protectors. [00:01:40] Passing these critical infrastructure [00:01:42] laws. Although South Dakota is not a [00:01:44] border state. It doesn't share an [00:01:46] international border. The border is [00:01:48] actually internalized within the state [00:01:50] on federal reservation land because she [00:01:53] claimed that federal reservations such [00:01:56] as Pineriidge, such as Rosebud were hot [00:01:59] beds for Mexican cartels that were, you [00:02:02] know, selling illicit drugs to, you [00:02:05] know, innocent white South Dotans and [00:02:07] getting them hooked and and all this [00:02:09] other stuff. what we're seeing right [00:02:10] now, she's just scaling up the [00:02:12] operations she waged against indigenous [00:02:15] people in South Dakota to a national and [00:02:17] an international level. What she's doing [00:02:19] at SECAT in El Salvador, that is [00:02:21] something she wanted to implement in [00:02:24] South Dakota, right? She's a total fraud [00:02:26] in South Dakota. She never she never [00:02:28] finished her degree. She claimed that [00:02:31] she got her career in politics by [00:02:33] fighting for a reform in inheritance [00:02:35] laws. She her she comes from a [00:02:36] millionaire family. She she dawns the [00:02:38] the cowboy hat, but I doubt she's ever [00:02:40] worked a hard day in her life. Her [00:02:42] family received government subsidies [00:02:44] because they were part of a rich farming [00:02:46] conglomerate to the tunes of probably [00:02:47] like millions of dollars in the course [00:02:50] of her career as like managing her farm [00:02:52] corporation. So this whole idea, this [00:02:54] whole narrative that she's spinning and [00:02:56] the Trump administration is spinning [00:02:57] about Somali immigrants taking federal [00:03:00] handouts, it's like if you want to cut [00:03:02] out federal handouts, then also cut out [00:03:04] farm subsidies and see what happens cuz [00:03:06] that'll strangle states like South [00:03:08] Dakota because a lot of white farmers [00:03:10] still rely on these federal subsidies to [00:03:12] make a living and they they do not even [00:03:14] compare to the kind of social welfare [00:03:16] programs that are happening in the [00:03:18] state. Right? So this if we want to talk [00:03:19] about fraud, let's talk about fraud. [00:03:21] Let's talk about government handouts [00:03:24] because her family, like generations of [00:03:27] her family were subsidized to colonize [00:03:28] our land and to wreak havoc on our [00:03:31] people. She was paid by the federal [00:03:33] government to do
