In an interview with 'Face the Nation', in the cases of rape or incest, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem does not believe one tragedy is 'a reason to have another tragedy occur.'

with so-called"trigger laws" on the books, in which abortion would be outlawed immediately or soon after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the 1973 landmark decision that established the constitutional right an abortion.

The court's decision made clear that the issue of abortion is one that will now be decided by elected officials in the states, but it also has set the stage for future legal fights about whether states can "It's something that should be under the supervision of a medical doctor and it is something in South Dakota that we've made sure happens that way," she said."There are certain protections that are guarded under the Constitution of the United States. The rest of these items are left to the states, the 10th Amendment guarantees us that."

Small mind think simple things and he is one of those individuals we have in government representing our best interests and failing.

She’s a Rock Star!

Umm…Earth calling Kristi Noem — this was meant to be a fictional horror story, not a positive model.

Let’s do something entertaining, and compare the parties who: (1) Make sure that America’s school shooters are well-armed, and (2) Ensure that women are treated like brood-animals, in the name of requiring infinite childbirths. Oh wait … that’s the same party, isn’t it? … 🤔

Getting killed after you’re born is a tragedy. Being forced to give birth is a tragedy. Not getting born in the first place is just life being un-guaranteed, as usual. If the parents (or parent) never wanted pregnancy in the first place, for whom is this a “tragedy”, exactly?

Why I'm the world does ANYONE get to tell a rape survivor what to do? Does she know her political affiliation is all for less govt?

She’s 100% the type to secretly get/pay for a family member to get an abortion. So gross.

If she was raped and forced to carry her rapists baby to term she wouldn’t feel the same but okay 🙄

South Dakotans actually vote for this dumb shit

Dobbs is a tragedy. The GOPers continuing to take rights away from Americans.

Well it's apparent that she's trying to keep the population stable.

If woman didn't have the choice to have sex, they should have the choice to carry.

As long as it’s not her tragedy. Never project onto others your beliefs are correct and another’s are wrong. Logic demands, religion promises.

Absolutely disgusting. Can we just kick them all out of the planet now please? EVERYONE needs to vote! I think people really underestimate how important their vote is.

She's a tragedy.

Not everybody has money to pay for a rapist offspring. The woman will be marked for death, as the child could be. They don't want to pay child support. Rapists are abusers & psychopathic criminals.

Ok but if you are raped and find yourself pregnant with a baby what will u do

Any country that’s makes legislation based on a fictional book written about an imaginary friend is probably doomed I wonder how this is any different to other cult religions like extremist muslims how can you denounce extremism when you are no better 😳😳🤔

The tragedy of being insensitive to your fellow women.

So is she proposing to state fund said child, including daycare, insurance, education, food, clothing, and all it takes to raise a child, through adulthood? Or is she just trying to push her beliefs on someone else and hold no accountabilities after doing so?

When are the reports going to report and ask normal questions instead of setting traps for people that they don't ideologically agree with? Don't you get it? That's why you aren't trusted anymore. By either side.

I guess all women need to open carry a gun for protection. Declare open season on all attempted rapists. I guess this is a war now.

Is she still on her bender to get trumps face on Mt. Rushmore? Lord.

Who does Gov. Kristi Noem expect to bring up the unfortunate children conceived and born through rape?

So is she then saying that rape an incest is approved for abortion?

The problem is the third tragedy when the 13 year old kills herself.

That will cost her reelection run in November even could get her in trouble in The SD Governor's race.

Another fly over, drive by and don't buy anything state

Let's say I have a 14 yr. old daughter. She was raped and became pregnant. What pelvic structure does a girl of 14 have? It would be a killer rape. The delivery would be a killer delivery. No way would I sacrifice her life. Understand?

You are abhorrent

So being forced to carry your rapist's baby isn't a tragedy.

I heard her this morning she is absolutely ignorant! And people vote for her!

She also wants to prosecute drs who perform abortions. So, cops hanging out in drs offices, now? Entering surgical rooms? Questioning women as they leave the drs office? Prosecutors spending their hours building cases against drs instead of criminals?

The real tragedy is having this women as a Governor in a state that really shouldn’t be a state. No way states like South & North Dakota and Wyoming get senators with a combined population less than the city of Los Angeles.

We got to make sure all these women, have a way to travel to a state where they can get a abortion, even if they can’t afford it. So a fund needs to be set up.

She must be the product of rape…!

Blame Democrats! They've done nothing to secure it as a right. This is exactly what the democrat party wants! It's a tool for votes and screaming about Republicans. Wake up, you're being played by your own!

So if you are pro life where is the care for the raped? You are pro-birth not pro-life!

This is one of the main reasons people are leaving organized religion in droves. Republican is becoming antithetical to Christian.

Let's hope that govkristinoem does not get raped or gets pg from incest or any of her female family members...

Well, life sometimes gives us opportunities to live out our judgments. She has a daughter. Will she hold on to these beliefs if her daughter went through something horrific? These people are truly sick.

I wonder how she would feel if a loved one was raped and pregnant. If she had to die during pregnancy. Why does she speak for everyone

I mean hey perks of not living in South Dakota means not dealing with this shit. There is little to no reason to live in South Dakota they have less people than Sacramento county. Hardly even a state

These Christo-fascists use the unborn as a convenient cause célèbre. There is no empathy for women, young girls in this vise. It matters not if they live or die and it is certain they will receive little or no support, nor will children born into poverty, disability or violence.

🤨

What in the fuck

South Dakota ranks third highest in infant mortality deaths. Kristi Noem doesn’t give a shit about babies.

If a young woman was raped by her brother or father it would be just another episode of 'All in the Family' according to Noem.

I don't agree with the governor's position on exceptions for rape or incest, but at least she's being logically consistent. If you believe life begins at conception, then the means of conception shouldn't matter. Once it's born, she doesn't care about the child's life!

I don't agree with this woman. If it happened to her she would feel differently

Where in the constitution does it say the beliefs of a few must be imposed on the many?

The question for Kristi Noem is she going to step up adopt the baby? Or any of these babies they are saying they are protecting? None of these people give a second thought to the babies after they are born. RoeVsWade WomensRightsAreHumanRights

'[A]nother tragedy' is when another Republican gets elected.

Then let's hope you, your daughters, sisters, nieces and friends never have to suffer this experience. It's so easy to say when you haven't been brutally violated.

Nice try.

Ban Botox and lip filler next. That might get her attention

Sick

By setting the stage for the overturning of Roe, the GOP may have catalyzed the most significant political realignment since the passage of the Voting Right Act. The VAST majority of the country thinks this is batshit crazy, but people were able to discount it when Roe in place.

She got a shop vac for her 15th birthday

Until it happens to of her own.

The real tragedy is South Dakota as a state.

Sickness

Pro life nuts are souless ghouls

Is govkristinoem smiling? I can't tell any more... VoteThemOut2022

What a shithole.

What happened in this woman's childhood and upbringing for her hold these clearly anti-woman positions? And the left is the one constantly accused of grooming...FFS

govkristinoem now you're going to start making sure women have the resources they need. 🙄 If it was that important, it would've been done already.

So, are pro-lifers the only ones who can willy-nilly incoherently pick why and who receives an abortion? How holier-than-thou of them!

Wow this is insane! CLOWN WORLD WE LIVE IN…..

Until it happens in your inner circle. Do some critical thinking woman. This will cause suffering, death and poverty.

Parenting is a grave responsibility. Should never be entered into blithely. Or mandated by others. If a pregnancy is unwanted... if a woman is unprepared emotionally, financially or is unready for the awesome responsibility of parenthood... it is irresponsible not to end it
