I remember when people were praising her over blocking masks. Biding their time.

Her opposition is entirely on constitutional principle, same as opposing the lockdowns. I can respect this, even though I lean toward "fight fascism with fascism."
Yeah, the thing Noem would need to do to complete the picture is punish the globohomos for their bullshit when the rules allow her to. 8 don't know if she's missed such an opportunity.
Something the left understands and the right clearly doesn't is that "rules" and "procedures" can be manipulated to get a result you want and even a result that a naïve interpretation of the rules would seem to prevent. It's not a question of whether or not the rules "allow" you to do something: you do something and then later manipulate the rules to provide cover for you.
I get it, but if you refuse to do what you need to do and abide by the Constitution then that essentially turns our country into any other Western state that uses their government charter/constitution as toilet paper.
The reason why the right wing has the moral mandate it does is that the MAGA part of the right wing at least tries to abide by the Constitution where it can. That's why the left is losing the independents because it is clear the left will stop at nothing to enforce their authoritarian measures.
as if theyre that different than the demofucks/
Survival. Survival is the point.
Libertarianism is a peacetime ideogy. We're at war.
The "constitutional principles" people like her claim to hold were engineered by conservative think tanks and right-wing interests. (Koch Bros types) Here's an idea: Ban vaccine mandates for all corporations and large companies over some number of employees or annual income, all of which probably get some kind of subsidies or know how to game the system to get tax breaks. Let small businesses, or "mom and pop" stores discriminate and hire whoever they want. Noem can set the definition of "large company" to whatever she feels is reasonable.
If she'll make that completely legal distinction and stand up for employee rights, I'm willing to call her constitutionally principled.
If not, it's because she's getting corporate campaign contributions. Or more likely the GOP getting them is why such a law will never be proposed in the first place.
There is no Constitutional principle that a state can't regulate businesses.
