    They’re just Trump’s fall guys. She will be replaced by another person dumb enough to accept this position.

      FYI, Americans: “Good Tsar , bad Boyars” is an old Russian tactic.

      The Great Leader is all-wise and beneficent, but is surrounded by incompetents who must occasionally be purged. They are the reason everything goes to shit, you see…

      Better than doing nothing. If there’s president to kick her out for causing a situation where her goons kill people, then the next guy will probably try to not have that happen.

      I’m guessing one is Fetterman

      Edit:
      Wow I was wrong. And the articles author is surprised too haha

      Even right-leaning Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pennsylvania) made an appeal to President Donald Trump on Tuesday to “immediately fire” Noem

      Uhm. A sponsor of a bill/law/action is persons who are in favor of the bill in its current form, and will be willing to argue for it if need be.

      Sponsors aren’t required to vote in favor of it, but it’s a very high likelihood they will.

      Basically 140 sponsors means it will get to a vote.
