South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has spoken out on Friday after recently being banned from a number of tribal reservations due to previous comments she has made.The Republican governor who is a close ally to former President Donald Trump, the presumed 2024 GOP presidential nominee, took to X, formerly Twitter, after she was banned by a series of state tribes earlier this year—including two last week—for claiming tribal leaders are 'personally benefiting' from drug cartels in the state.
During a council meeting in April for the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe, chairman Ryman LeBeau called Noem's statements 'gossip and lies about our Lakota students, their parents and our Tribal Councils,' adding that the accusations 'perpetuate stereotypes, misconceptions, which are inaccurate and untrue.'Despite her bans, Noem has continued to post about cartels.
