Does Kristi [Bimbo #2] Noem know what habeas corpus is? One thing we know for certain: She would very much like Americans to believe she does not. On Tuesday, the head of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) used a Senate hearing to insist the legal term means the opposite of its actual definition. “Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country and suspend their right to,” [Bimbo #2] Noem said through her unnervingly Botox-inflated lips. She was interrupted by Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., who explained to a smug-looking [Bimbo #2] Noem that, no, habeas corpus “requires that the government provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people” and is the reason it’s illegal for Donald Trump to round up immigrants and imprison them in foreign gulags without offering a legal reason why.
…
There was much mockery of [Bimbo #2] Noem for being so dumb in mainstream and left-leaning media, but notably, neither [Bimbo #2] Noem nor her allies have shown any shame or defensiveness about her alleged mistake. Whether [Bimbo #2] Noem comes by her confusion honestly or she was just play-acting, she’s there to play the role of the proud MAGA bimbo, in the grand tradition of figures like Sarah Palin.
The MAGA bimbo isn’t just ignorant. She’s contemptuous of people who actually know what they’re talking about, especially if those facts-laden human beings are fellow women.
Salon: Kristi [Bimbo #2] Noem’s proud MAGA bimbo act builds on the legacy of Sarah Palin
