Noem - regarding Chicago - "this is a war zone, his city is a war zone"
They should make that idiot go to Gaza or the front line in Ukraine.
I spent the weekend in SF for Hardly Strictly this weekend. It was fucking awesome. Took the train up, then rode my bike through SoMa, Hayes Valley, got a burrito that puts La Bamba to shame, some hazy IPA, rode down the panhandle. People were everywhere, old people, young people, having a ton of fun, multiple groups setting up shop just busking on JFK Drive (maybe Noem means a "war on cars" zone now that the road in GG Park is shut to vehicle traffic), someone had a pop up Karaoke stand, kids riding bikes or scooters. I brought my dog to the concert on Sunday.
It was fucking awesome. It's malpractice that Noem and Trump are selling this BS to people who never leave their rural areas that somehow US cities are scenes out of CounterStrike.
