We are here today in so called peirre, sd Oceti Sakowin, Turtle Island at so-called governor Kristy Noems powwow
intended to fool the people. Kristy Noem is a trickster weaving her web of deceit. She is not a friend of the tribes.
She uses lies to play the people. She uses lies to prey on the people and the land. She causes division and lateral
violence.


She is in a lawsuit against the Biden administration to bring back KXL, enemy of the tribe. She has created riot
boosting laws and is building a new national guard center to handle any opposition.


She is currently suing Deb Haaland for not allowing her fireworks in the black hills, He Sapa. The people made it
clear last year but she didn’t listen and pulled the national guard out.


She is also involved in a state lawsuit against the people’s decision on recreational marijuana. While she complains
about 50 permanent jobs lost with KXL, she is denying the opportunity for thousands of green, permanent jobs.
While she claimed “we don’t need handouts”, she handed out $100,000 to her family members from cares act
money. She has used taxpayer money to campaign all over for trump.


She has passed legislation against the two spirit community.


She did nothing to stop the spread of covid and brought a lot in by allowing Sturgis. Native populations were
proportionately hit worse by these decisions. When checkpoints were set up for tribal safety she tried her best to
shut them down.


She is also backing legislation to ensure history classes in school teach how her at America was instead of the truth.
She tries to hide these acts of cultural genocide behind this phony powwow.


We are armed with the truth and prayer!
Wake up America
