People making a big deal about this, but the DOGE boys will be on it any second now, right?
In honor of DHS spokesliar Tricia McLaughlin's resignation, let's revisit how her husband's company won a $220 million no-bid contract to run a stupid propaganda campaign featuring her boss, Kristi Noem, bashing immigrants while sitting on a horse in front of Mt. Rushmore.
