If you're curious how much of the state she's a governor of she now can't set foot in, it's this much.
Guess she'll have to find dogs other than rez dogs to shoot.

With divisive skills that strong, she’s a shoo-in for Trump’s VP pick.
Even most Republicans love their dogs.
Massively in favor of Land Back with the goal of reducing kristi noem's freedom of movement
“Banishing me does absolutely nothing to solve this problem,” Noem told reporters Friday. “All it does is help those who are perpetuating horrible violence and crimes against the people of South Dakota.”
Is there any evidence to the claims that she's been making? This article didn't mention any details.
No, there isn't.
All it does is help those who are perpetuating horrible violence and crimes against the people of South Dakota
She talks as if she would be there fighting crime herself
This is the woman who ran with the slogan:
"Meth, we're on it."
... to describe her state's effort to address drug problems.
Its like an Onion article, but nope, real.
While there is some cartel activity in South Dakota according to the DEA (like in every state), the specific violence and crimes she is alluding to doesn't seem to have a specific reference base or specific numbers.
The DEA info and a statement from a South Dakota native American sheriff are interesting to read.
There's a lot of crime on reservations because there's a lot of poverty on reservations. I wonder if the U.S. government she's proud to be a part of has anything to do with that?
I wonder what the DEA document reads. Based on this second article shared though, it seems South Dakota has much much less of a problem respectively than other states. It seems very odd that the governor's focusing so much on it.
The cartel running in the States has been a problem for decades, her vague, open-ended complaints without proposed solutions seem largely political.
Sending a few more cops into the forest or deserts to search for Mexican cartel operations is entirely futile and not at all cost effective in the "war on drugs", but people are afraid of foreigners and afraid of drugs that they aren't educated about, so it's an easy topic to bang the drum about.
Republicans have been scaring people about drugs for 50 years in order to get elected, without making an iota of headway solving the problem.

She's GOP. It should be assumed as a matter of course that she's talking out of her ass.
While it's usually a safe bet, it's always better to see a source to know for sure
Her dog ate the claims so she shot it
She considers being brown a crime, that’s the root of this whole ordeal
Lol there's an area of the state she can't get to without first leaving.
What happened to her face? She almost looks human in this picture
No spray tan.
She is a walking waste of skin.
Is that still considered skin?
The indigenous folks rock.
If Noem was serious about dealing with "safe havens" for drug cartels she'd be spending her ire on Langley in Virginia.
Me playing Rimworld and reading about tribes here.
