Donald Trump‘s 2024 running mate to the next level by attacking LGBTQ+ college students in her state.“Across the nation, higher education is in a state of crisis,” Noem, who dropped out of college when she was 22, tweeted the other day. “From prioritizing feelings over facts to radical indoctrination, as a country, we should be ashamed of this.
As a state, South Dakota can show the nation what quality higher education is supposed to look like.”South Dakota’s trans-hating governor continued her senseless crusade against LGBTQ+ youth this week.The tweet also included an infographic of all the things Noem is directing the South Dakota Board of Regents to do to combat this “crisis”, including an order to “remove all references to preferred pronouns in all school materials and any enforcement of such” and another one to “prohibit drag shows from taking place on university campuses.”Ironically, sandwiched right between those two demands is an additional order to “remove any policy or procedure that prohibits students from exercising their right to free speech.”Across the nation, higher education is in a state of crisis.From prioritizing feelings over facts to radical indoctrination, as a country, we should be ashamed of this.As a state, South Dakota can show the nation what quality higher education is supposed to look like.
