Trump rages at protesters in late-night defense of Kristi Noem: ‘They should be in jail'
President Donald Trump late Friday issued a vigorous defense of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem while accusing protesters and Democrats of “criminal acts” and declaring they “should all be in jail.”
In a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform, the president claimed that “Radical Left Lunatics, Insurrectionists, Agitators, and Thugs,” were targeting Noem “because she is a woman, and has done a really GREAT JOB!"
“The Border disaster that I inherited is fixed, the violent criminals that were allowed into our Country through Sleepy Joe’s ‘sick’ Open Border Policy, are largely gone, or being strongly sought for purposes of removal, and the Murder Rate in the USA just reached the lowest level in history, 125 years!” Trump wrote Friday.
He then unleashed his vengeance on Democrats and the protests that have unfolded in Minnesota and major cities across the nation.
“Republicans, don’t let these Crooked Democrats, who are stealing Billions of Dollars from Minnesota, and other Cities and States from all over the Country, push you around,” Trump said in the post. “They are using this aggressive protest SCAM to obfuscate, camouflage, and hide their CRIMINAL ACTS of theft and insurrection. They should all be in jail.”
Trump concluded that he “was elected on Strong Borders, and Law and Order, among many other things,” before thanking Noem.
He ended by writing, “Remember, ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES!!!”
Minutes later, Trump posted again to praise border czar Tom Homan, whom he made responsible this week for the crackdown in Minnesota.
“Border Czar (Plus!) Tom Homan is doing a FANTASTIC JOB. He is one of a kind. Thank you Tom!!!” Trump told his followers.
