Public documents show the Department of Homeland Security has contracted to purchase a pair of top-of-the-line Gulfstream jets for the secretary and other top officials.
The Department of Homeland Security has purchased two Gulfstream private jets for Kristi Noem, the secretary, and other top department officials at a cost of $172 million, according to documents reviewed by The New York Times.
The jets, which a department official said were needed for safety, are the latest expenditures on behalf of Ms. Noem to draw scrutiny from Democrats and other critics who have noted her lavish spending on living and other expenses during her time in public life.
It was not immediately clear where the funding for the jets came from.
More like Noem bought two jets for Gnome, and the Coast guard had the price pulled out of their budget.
One firm her and one for her dogs ? Or they all ded now ?
I hope I’m alive to see her being tried before an international court
Thank goodness she has private jets as we lose our healthcare.
Let them fly private…
Let’s not be hasty. She might crash in them.
I think we’ve found the waste, fraud, and abuse.
Holy crap I can’t believe I already forgot about DOGE. Feels like ten years ago now.
Make them get on commercial planes like the rest of us, dammit. This private jet business is ludicrous.
With the peasants?! Do be serious!
Just so she can kill dogs at 30 000 feet…
SHOW HER HANDS.
You’re all about showing her fully glowed up, NYT, and why is that? Yeah. We know why.
You ain’t wrong
I’m out of the loop - what’s the deal with her hands?
She has old people hands. She is mutton dressed as lamb. Normally, there is nothing wrong with that, but in this instance it’s a bell weather of how fake she is. Like Donny 2 Inches, it’s all fake.
She’s (Obviously) had a ton of work done on her face in order to wrangle for power in the fascist traitor administration. (See also MAGA face)
One cosmetic surgeon listed a brow lift, a face and neck lift, an eyelid lift, a nose job, transfer of fat to the face, Botox, fillers, neuromodulators, microneedling, facials, chemical peels, laser treatments, “medical-grade skin care products”, and dental veneers among the procedures constituting Mar-a-Lago face.
However, human hands resist such elective cosmetic surgery such that when you see her bony, wrinkled, immigrant-damning, puppy-murdering, Lewandowski masturbating, crooked paws - they are in stunning contrast to her hair extended, eyelash woven, belt-sanded face.
And the corporate news will not publish pictures like that because it does the most harmful thing it could possibly do to this corrupt incompetent administration: it would damage their image, which is just about all they have.
So this is, once again for those unclear, the NYT supporting trump by refusing to show the truth.
Or we could just not make a big deal about someone’s body…
I’m gonna be honest, I think you’re on the wrong side of this.
Also, you could just focus on the 2 fucking private jets. Or on all the mistreat of Americans and ignoring their constitutional rights. Or being unethical and inhumane towards human beings in general. I think those are in fact the bigger problems here.
They are clearly the bigger problems, yes.
But someone who trades so heavily on fake looks to implement nazi policy can get hassled about it and that’s ok.
And the corporate news will not publish pictures like that because it does the most harmful thing it could possibly do to this corrupt incompetent administration: it would damage their image, which is just about all they have.
Or maybe the respectable media just doesn’t do trashy tabloid level body shaming stories?
Nah it must be some insane conspiracy!
If you think the media’s pictures are an “insane conspiracy story”, you’re really not paying attention.
I think they may be under the impression that people actually read the articles instead of staring at just the photos and trying to find some pattern to them.
Sure. You’re right, it’s probably fine and not a well studied phenomenon of the last forty years.
That explains Melania’s photos in a news article I read the other day.
She probably has old lady hands.
I will say that she has a rather different style than she used to.
Here she is as a House Representative for South Dakota, a decade and a half ago:
Here she is in Trump’s cabinet:
Holy shit I’ve never seen what she looked like before. That’s a ton of work.
What the fuck is wrong with these people? Like even from that old image you can tell she was aging relatively gracefully already, so unless the evil is just that corrosive why get the work? Is it just a shitty optics thing and how rich you have to be to blow that much money on that many shitty jobs?
Fuck I’m glad I’m descended from old money, tradesmen, and laborers who took pride in their age cause it will fundamentally stop me from ever considering this shit. Also I don’t need work done to be unsettling on a visual level, my paleness and overall caveman appearance wrongfoots folks enough.
Same crazy eyes.
