Reality-denying Gov Kristi Noem of SD wants Rushmore fireworks to go on

 

Let's NEVER forget that Governor Noem gifted the former disaster of a President a model of Mount Rushmore with his face on it.

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem sues Biden administration for canceling the July 4 fireworks at Mount Rushmore after display resumed last year after 10-year break

"The state's application to hold fireworks this year was denied by the National Park Service, which cited safety concerns tied to dry conditions and the possibility of wildfires - and also objections from local Native American tribes.

Noem's lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for South Dakota, argues that the decision was 'arbitrary and capricious' and violated the powers granted to the agency in the Constitution."

Arbitrary and capricious?
"Last month, however, the park service had to close the monument for several days as firefighters battled wildfires within the park grounds.

The wildfires in part prompted Noem to declare a state of emergency until June, citing 'widespread drought conditions, low humidity, high wind and high temperatures that create serious peril for our state.'
So all that serious peril is going to go away by July 4 if the state of emergency goes through June.

There's something wrong with that.

There's a lot wrong with the governor of South Dakota.
