Republicans Called “Hypocrites” Over 2024 Clip Condemning Presidents Using The National Guard

At the time, when Biden and Texas Governor Greg Abbott disagreed over the former’s border policies, Noem accused Democrats of “encouraging the president” to “activate our National Guard soldiers.”

Against the prospect, Noem continued: “We will defend our rights because the last several years, we’ve seen Democrats take away our freedom of religion, our freedom of assembly, our freedom of speech. We can’t let them take away our states’ rights too, especially our right to protect ourselves.”
