Kristi Noem Fails Spectacularly on Press Tour as Chances to be Trump's VP Dim

- čas přidán 5. 06. 2024
- Ceasefire negotiations hit a major sticking point as Israel prepares an invasion of Rafah over Joe Biden's objections. Judge Merchan holds Donald Trump in contempt again and warns that jail time may be necessary to enforce the rules. Trump holds a retreat at Mar-a-Lago where he compares the Biden administration to Nazis and holds another public audition for running mate. Noted puppy-killer Kristi Noem gets a mention, and so does Sen. Mike Lee's hair. Then, Vote Save America's Shaniqua McClendon stops by to discuss the big launch of Organize or Else-the easiest and most effective way to get involved in this election.

Crooked believes that we need a better conversation about politics, culture, and the world around us-one that doesn’t just focus on what’s broken, but what we can do to fix it. At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America-a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.

From the UK, I still don't get why any Americans would want to vote for Trump? Why would they think that their life will be better under him? All Trump's interested in is himself and occasionally his cronies!
Trump followers love the idea of Democrats losing more than they love the reality of Trump/MAGA losing.
The magascum cult is a manifestation of 'you think your smarter than me' losers' resentment at the world (complete with misspelling), with their hatred directed at anyone they can scapegoat for their failures in life - minorities, intellectuals, immigrants, the gub'mint, etc. Think of the dumbest kids in school, and the bullies who acted out of weakness, and that's who these people are.
Because the American education system doesn’t teach critical thinking.
“I love the poorly educated” - Donald J. Trump.
Why did a solid portion of our country think that we'd be so much better off under Brexit? Same energy really.
I think a lot of us - no matter the country - are having painful realisations that not everyone in our electorate:
1) fully comprehends complex issues. Whether that's because they're not civically engaged or whether it's because they prefer populist rhetoric or have rage that is soothed by populism.
1) Has everyone's best interests at heart when they're casting their vote. A non-significant number of people just want to "hit back" at someone or they're single-issue voters and when it's that issue vs everyone else's wellbeing ... welp.
3) Very, very biased media ecosystem. If you think America struggles with right wing news, we do far worse in intensity and volume I think. Maybe 2-3 mainstream UK publications are left or centrist, the vast majority are rightwing/populist/Murdochian fiefdoms. They are cynical and ruthless in their attack journalism. That's before you even add in the hell of the internet.
Justice for Cricket!
Tommy: Thanks for spotlighting the danger of NC gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson. As a North Carolinian, I'm genuinely scared of what a Robinson governorship would look like, especially with a Republican supermajority in the state legislature. Please support Josh Stein!
That guy is so very terrifying. My sister, family and my Mom are there. 🙏🏻🇺🇸⚖️💙🗽🩺🗳️
Mecklenburg Co. need to Fire that traitor woman Senator who switched Parties 3 months After being elected as a Democrat to give the rethugs that Power! I was raised in NC, lived there for 30 years but I will not return but only to visit my parents and friends. I am so grateful to reside in Washington state who is Blue w/ laws that reflect a democracy. Free health Insurance in our state for our children, determined by family income, and Women Have Rights Here!
I live in SC. I understand your fear! Robinson is scarier than the average MAGA, and we got plenty of MAGAs in these 2 states.
Don't worry, spread the word about his craziness and make your voice heard, I'm from Florida and am aware of him he is crazy enough without being a florida man 😅
He and all the NAR are all terrifying. They want Gilead.
I live in a Minneapolis suburb in Hennepin county and will definitely be voting for Biden
So sorry for the divorce denied for pregnant women
🙏 Pls hold a voting party w every good person you know
"Job creators"? We're bringing that back? 2012 GOP called, they want their talking point back.
Now I'm just imagining Noem staring down some random S. Korean functionary convinced that she came face-to-face with the dictator.
LMAO
It really strains my ADHD to the limits, but I have learned to love and stick around till the end with PSA because you guys are well-informed and so much fun. One of the few political casts that doesn't leave me angry and depressed.
"I'm not going to elaborate on my meetings with world leaders" - that I included in my new book.
So sad..
That's because she's a governor. She hasn't met with any world leader's. She never met with a dog trainer either.
Imagine Kim even agreeing to meet with stupid Kristi Noem, let alone being intimidated by her.
I'm fukn exhausted and I know y'all have to be as well. Thank you all for everything you do everyday.
Jon Favreau leaning back into his own laughter @39:24 from reading out nonsense, brings me great joy. Thank you.
Like his supporters give two shits. He wouldn't lose a single vote if he picked her.
The election is not decided by his hardcore supporters though. It's decided by "moderates", meaning by people who may not feel all too attached to democracy but who still like puppies.
Seriously! Like literally almost everyone is appalled by her actions. But if trump picks her, Maga be all for it
Not about his supporters. All about independents and ppl on the margins. 50k votes decided 2020 and every vote counts
I mean I was on the fence about Trump, but then he chose Kristi Noem, now I'm voting Biden. Said nobody.
Yeah but he wouldn’t gain any, certain VP picks would probably gain him some votes and Noem isn’t one of them
This whole puppy killer shit in that “so crazily awful that you have to laugh or else the horror would get to you” category. Out of this world.
I'm just trying to imagine Kristi Noem up against an actual journalist like Sarah Ferguson of (Australia's) ABC (the one who disposed of Sidney Powell, Trump's "lawyer"). We have a major problem with both the competence and attitude of corporate media. Imagine allowing Noem to finish her robotic, bulldozing talking points like that, with little strategy to push back and force her to answer the question! The bizarre Sen. Tim Scott was similarly allowed to do it in another recent interview. No wonder we're in trouble. Thanks to Pod Save America, Brian Tyler Cohen and the Meidas network. Oh, and Simon Rosenberg and Hopium Chronicles. On second thought: maybe best to just let her speak!
Aussie here. We have quite afew like sarah ferguson who would eat that crazy wacko for breakfast.
@@goyindi I'm an Aussie too! You are so correct - it's an honoured Aussie tradition.
GOP politicians and supporters berate the journalists for “cutting in”, “not letting me finish my statement”, and “is there a question”. Margaret and George are finally starting to push back and repeat their questions. They cannot treat MAGA politicians as if they’re mainstream and deserve the courtesy to spin and lie.
Hmm did you see how she handled Steve Bannon? The best Trump era journalists live and breathe the subject matter....so they can fact check as they go. Jonathan Swan is the only real heavyweight from Australia on Washington politics (honourable mention to Chas Licciardello.....but he's not an interviewer)
Unfortunately it’s not about getting to the truth it’s about maintaining access to republicans. If ur too hard on a republican they’ll call u an arm of the DNC and retreat back into the RW wackadoodle media bubble
Stormy weather ahead in court today for Trump.
Also hello from the Twin Cities suburbs
This is one of those episodes that makes you wish you were in the studio and hear the parts that were edited out 😂. Had me laughing out loud.
Justice for the goat. Shame on you for not mentioning it. Say its name!
He was the Greatest. Of All Time.
Referring to children as "little tyrants" in a paragraph about a merciless dictator is apparently Noem's attempt at humor. It also provides some insight into the mindset of a person who would try to cast the powerless as those who are truly pulling the strings.
She just called the Sunday school children little tyrants we’re in trouble
"When it was brought to my attention that I wrote, edited and published Kim Jung Un, I re-edited the book to remove it."
Brought to your attention...
Honey.
wrote, edited, published, and also read the audiobook*
"You've met Kim Jon Un?!" "I've met many many people. Many humans breathing air. In my travels. Many many people."
Ok.
Tommy with the BBLovett diss. What a time
Just signed up. Team West!!
I just signed up too. Team East!
On Day One, Bibi outlined five aims of the war, and the hostages were not even on the list.
He has mostly failed on these. Hamas has not been exterminated, Israeli support globally is at a low, internal Israeli solidarity has faltered, and while Israel is taking territory, that isn’t a legitimate goal of war - that’s annexation. This war has been a total failure for Israel, and so the hostages are being used to mask that.
I didn't realize that. 😔
That is completely false, both on its face and by implication. I'm the last one to defend Bibi, but everything you just said is untrue and devoid of context.
In his first speech on the evening of October 7, while civilians were still being slaughtered in their homes and battles were still raging across the Gaza Envelope inside Israel, before anyone knew anything regarding the hostage situation beyond the pure violence and brutality of that day, before a single shell had been fired or a single bomb had been dropped in Gaza, Bibi declared war on Hamas and laid out *3* goals, not 5, and they were:
*To clear out and secure the towns and cities currently occupied by terrorists
*To extract a high price from the enemy, and
*To prevent any one else (e.g. Hezbollah, Iran) from joining Hamas and opening additional fronts in the war
It would be _days_ before the scale of what happened became in any way clear, with bodies from that day still being identified now, which is one reason you keep seeing the number of hostages dropping even today: forensics established between 30-50 of the people presumed taken hostage on October 7 were in fact killed that day, some of whose bodies were taken hostage to Gaza, while so many others were so badly mangled and mutilated that it took months to establish their sex with any determinacy, let alone their name.
Your statement is disingenuous, at best.
@@mygenericusername Here's the statement from the Prime Minister's Office. www.gov.il/he/pages/event-statement091023
@@mygenericusername It's literally on the Prime Minister's Office website.
I’ve said it before all you have to do is tell him no make up no hair support before his next court hearing and he will shut up
Oh my. Do you think someone helps him create that on a daily basis? That never occurred to me.
“Good luck with your Brazilian butt lift.”😂 -Tommy
So she did go back in her "No Going back" book and changed a few things... Yyyeah...
She doesn't even see the irony. She ain't got much going for her but her looks.
Oh and guns
“Lack of control over face, hair, body …” He hasn’t thought of this aspect yet. We’ll see the panic on his face when it hits him. Look for it!
And access to post, "Toots"! Don't forget THAT! 😂
Sorry Jon, I'm a boomer I learned many years ago we can't stop the stupid.
There was a construction crew at the gravel pit that watched her kill the animals!
I gamble that the next Vice President will be a member of his family.
The Shaniqua McClendon interview was the most inspiring, informative segment of the episode.
That open glass of water right next to the laptop while Tommy gesticulates inches away. eeeeee.
The irony of going back to edit a book called No Going Back is palpable.
Fun fact (that makes no difference in anything)… Louisiana State University’s radio station KLSU is East of the Mississippi. It’s the only K station that is.
The funny thing about this is that radio stations East of the Mississippi got a W instead of the other way around.
Netanyahu doesn’t give a 💩 about any hostages. A ceasefire is the end of his political career and doesn’t help Trump get elected. Just assume the worst of Netanyahu you’ll never go wrong
Don't give up on us here in NC. I live in Asheville NC and we voted for Obama. We really want and need to flip the state for Biden this year
“Don’t invade Rafah or there *could be some rethinking* of the *support* for Israel….wonder how Netanyahu could even think of defying Biden and international public opinion despite such specific and harsh consequences?!?
When I tell my kid “Don’t you dare hit your brother or I *might possibly consider thinking* about *some sort of punishment* “, it always works!
+1. Biden doesn't care about the Palestinians and he's made that abundantly clear with his actions.
There’s a difference between what is reported to the public and what is said in private. The qualifiers may simply be a way for everyone to save face.
@@alexwyatt2911 I think leaving out the qualifiers would have helped Biden *actually* save face. Interestingly, Bernie Sanders, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, all pro-Israel, had no problem condemning Netanyahu once the death and destruction grew to alarming levels and Israel’s complete lack of concern about humanitarian aid or the lives of humanitarian workers became impossible to hide.
In general though, it would be nice if politicians cared half as much about “saving lives” as they did about “saving face”. It’s difficult not to feel jaded about Biden and Blinken and other people in the administration when they do this performative nonsense. I’d almost prefer it if they were just upfront and just said:
“Yeah, we don’t actually care about starving Palestinian kids…sorry…I mean it’s not personal or anything…we aren’t anti-Muslim or anti-Arab. We have no problem supporting Saudi Arabia, for example, (despite their extremely problematic human rights violations)…it’s just traditional American foreign policy which has always been based on short sighted self-interests. We need to support Israel to make sure the Iranians don’t get too much power in the region. And we need to support the Saudis ‘cuz oil and they’re Sunnis who also hate Iran….Oh look, someone said something anti-Semitic over at an Ivy League! Can you guys get outraged over that and go back to ignoring Palestine (and Sudan and Ukraine) like you have for the last 20 years? Wait, no, Ukraine is important, you should be concerned about the suffering of the poor Ukrainians! Again, not personal …I’m sorry, I’m not a spring chicken and this whole political re-alignment thing gets me confused sometimes but yeah, please continue to ignore what’s happening in the rest of the world. Hey, look over there - it looks like a Republican killed a puppy! Can you please stop talking about the Middle East now? Thanks! Love you guys! Make sure to donate some more money to my campaign and win a chance to eat ice cream with me and the Mrs. down at the beach!”
PS: I *loathe* Trump but at least he’s honest about his lack of concern for the people of Gaza. Also, unlike other politicians, he isn’t obsessed about “saving face” (well, aside from using an obscene amount of bronzer). I wonder why half the country finds him “a refreshing alternative” despite his egregious policy positions and his utter contempt for anyone who says anything critical about him?!?
@@alexwyatt2911 I wish politicians would care more about saving lives and less about “saving face”
@@alexwyatt2911 Nothing Joe Biden has said or done gives me a reason to believe that he's doing anything substantial in private to save Palestinian lives. If he judge him by his actions it's clear that he just does not care.
He does not want to go to jail. Can you imagine him having to come to court with no make up or hair come straight out the sale get out of here.
She read the audio book. That is funny.
Federal employees are between 1.5 - 1.9% of the US population, hardly significant in terms of voting.
Let’s have more of Tommy on “let’s just be honest, it’s vengeance.” The rest is not honest.
Crooked Crew! There is one thing I really need to know...has anyone at Crooked ever SET UP a Simply Safe system!? I neeeeeeed to know!?
Lovett swears he set his up....
FAST
What if 45 doesn’t even select a VP candidate?
Thanks guys 💙
Trump Is NOT That Smart.
No, but he'll throw anyone under the bus who makes him or his campaign look bad.
(to put it very mildly)
"I'm not retreating, i'm reloading."
Takes a village to replace a Lovett
That is ridiculous. He needs to keep his own ego show and not spoil these serious discussions.
That's stupid Congress chooses in a tie. Should go to popular vote at that point.
It should always be a popular vote-like every other elected official.
Actually spot on magic Johnson reference from Tommy
Love the pod boys!
Good morning, world!

The fastest horse ever recorded with a radar gun was 54 miles an hour. It was a quarter horse in California. It was a steady done between the university of California and the American Quarter Horse Association.
As a lifetime Minnesotan, love to hear Jon get all the dets bang on! Out state folks are definitely a challenge, but 3.5 million of us live in the metro.
"If I were sitting in the White House", says Tommy Frikkin' Vietor. Don't give us shivers like that, man. If you ran for President, I would renounce my UK citizenship and do some John Oliver-level arguing and campaigning as to why you are awesome. Ok, that was weird, sorry.
I couldn"t get vote save america form to work!
Noem’s opponents knew about the puppy & goat killing because there were WITNESSES - construction workers who saw it happen and aren’t politically aligned with Noem.
Tommy I'd love it if you were sitting in the White House.
I've been saying this for years that NE is key!!! Ok, maybe I've just been hoping we mattered.
I love Bergums comments on this because here's the thing... politicians should do what voters want. If voters want a strong social safety net, it is the responsibility and expectation that a democracy will do that. If voters believe they were exploited and trapped to get an education and want relief, a democracy would try to ease that pain.
ikr... so disingenuous
"... do you still think that you have a SHOT?" 😅 FTN FTW.
Unions are incredibly important to the Iron Range. If Biden went there and spoke with Union leaders, he could improve his numbers up there.
Registered with VSA and ready to work in Florida!
Amazing! Let's do this!

Jon’s working on a couple a big ol blindsides! If your game is as good as your first confessional was funny, you’re my winner pick for sure! Congrats and good luck!
KN: I'm not going to talk about my specific meetings with world leaders.
Also KN: I will put them in my book, however.
Thank you for keeping me sane!
How do you 'destroy Hamas'? Its not like plucking all the goldfish out of a fish bowl and 'poof' "They're all gone!". BeBe's actions potentially lead to MORE goldfish. I wonder if he's thought of that. Oh, right.... Probably has. 😢
An entire generation has now been radicalized to hate Israel even more than the current 😢
Was she high while recording her audiobook? Also, this must be fun for George Santos.
Double dog dare him to pick her
Lovett looks so happy and relaxed- he's got pre-vacation face. ❤
That may be a cynical view, but I am certain it is the correct one.
This podcast is all about the unexpected
Tommy look so serious and bookish and then he comes up with the most funny lines
I was laughing so hard about Noam trying to keep confidential her imaginary meeting with world leaders
Lovit, you always expect comedy from him
And then he comes up with the most clever analysis
Faveru is everyone favourite
He is the exception to the rule
"yes we dan fan fic" is one of the funniest things I've ever heard. i wanna write this fan fic right now... LOL
I'm here for the fanfiction 🤣👍
Have fun, Lovett. See you when you get back. Who knows, maybe a friend of the pod really will write that slash fic. XD
Didn’t tRump want his signature on the relief checks during Covid? That’s kinda relevant right
He would pick her to spite the folks who look and point in horror at something bizarre and repugnant. She is probably lying anyways!!!!!!
It’s disgusting that HAMAS is even asking for a “deal” as if they are entitled to something in return for releasing the hostages they took. They should just release the hostages. How are people not acknowledging that?!
The thought keeps going through my head … why is this upcoming presidential election even close? Given that we have already endured 4 years of a Trump presidency, you’d think a vast majority of Americans would support anyone else but him. I think back to an article I read at the beginning of this year by Karen Tumulty (Washington Post) wondering Is This Who We Are? Sadly, this is who we are.
It’s who we’ve always been. This isn’t the first time that we’ve had to fight against a fascist movement in the US. Before the US entered WWII, a lot of Americans supported Hitler and fascism; members of Congress were working with literal Nazis and using federal government resources to mail Nazi propaganda to voters. It’s shocking and shameful and it’s true.
Many times throughout our country’s history, we have fought among ourselves to keep our country and take a step closer to actually fulfilling the American promise of opportunity, freedom, and equality. Each time brought our nation to the brink of disaster and each time, we managed to hold on by our fingertips. Each time, just enough of us stood our ground for just long enough.
Who we are and who we have always been is a country that is divided by belief and united by choice. It’s never been a unanimous decision and it won’t be now. But it doesn’t have to be. It just has to be enough of us.
I’m mostly concerned about Michigan. Large Muslim population and Biden is losing support there.
That fanfic sounding like a Chuck Tingle title. 🤣
Did you guys start without Lovett or was he there the whole time?
Your program is easy to watch.
Lock Trump up
Love you guys ❤️🇺🇸
Regarding Bibi, I don't think you are clear on his real motives.
Those yesterday weren’t job creators, they were all grifters.
Thank you guys for this.. ! I will check volunteer opportunities 💙
Weird that they didn't have David Plouffe on to announce his new podcast!
I think BiBi is thinking about what Israel/Gaza will look like 20 years in the future. And it will be tricky to get him to choose to let Gazans stay there.
His personal Auschwitz.
I think he is too and it is shameful and vile that the world is ok making it his choice or even the choice of Israel. Without the US propping him up he would not be able to run around pooping all over the world. Who the f'ck is he to hold the fate of Palestinian Arabs in his hand- they are on their own lands which have been stolen and plundered by Israel with the full blessing of the US.
It only makes him more excited to have her as his running mate
Burgum lied about his background too. He was a princeling not a boot strap dude. The editors convinced Kristi to take the dog story out in her first book so she made sure it was in this one.
I agree. Jack Smith is handsome.
Am I incorrect in considering the Netanyahu/Israel situation: A man barely elected to leadership distracted with personal legal problems, busy dismantling accountability when brutally attacked a harbinger of a trump term?? Really seems like a cautionary tale.
I’m listening from Australia, what’s the best way to support (Donation is my guess?)….and why? Aside from concern about global affairs, MAGA politics pops its head up down here which is something I’d very much like to squash before it becomes to much of a problem (And given our building social problems, it’s become more of a concern then more I think about it)
"How many people is enough people to be attacked and dangerously hurt before you make a decision on ....?"
"Guns?"
"What is the number? Wait, what??"
It's controller the p in comptroller is silent
Can you guys cut a youtube video of just the last part about the organize or else campaign/vote save america so I can post that literally everywhere to get people to sign up?
Is there anything we can do to help Vote Save America if we aren’t in the states?
THIS, right here, this discussion about electoral votes and swing states...This is why young people that I talk to do not care about voting because they feel that their vote doesn't count if they don't live in the right state. If only these 4 or 5 states are what is important, why don't just they vote? Why should the rest of us bother? I have to say, sometimes it is difficult to try and tell them that their vote does count, and encourage them to do so. VOTE BLUE to get rid of old practices like the electoral college and filibuster, that do not work anymore and are doing nothing but messing us up!! 💙💙💙💙💙💙
