Kristi Noem Refuses to Even Look at Photo of Abrego Garcia's Tattoos

[Celerity]

Representative Eric Swalwell had the photoshopped image walked over to her.

The Trump administration just became so much more Orwellian. “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command,” George Orwell wrote in his cautionary tale against totalitarianism, 1984.

On Wednesday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem took that command a step further, refusing to even acknowledge a doctored photo depicting alleged gang tattoos on Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s knuckles, which the White House has repeatedly used to justify his deportation.

In a heated back-and-forth with Representative Eric Swalwell during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing, Noem repeatedly swerved away from answering direct questions about the photo, which was displayed on a massive posterboard behind the California lawmaker.

After asking Noem several times as to whether the photo was “doctored or not doctored,” Noem eventually said that she did not “have any knowledge of that photo you’re pointing to.” But because she apparently refused to look at the image—which, in Swalwell’s photo, was held up by President Donald Trump—Swalwell decided to have one of his aides bring the image to her.

1. ICE Barbie just does what she's told.

She doesn't need facts, truth, or verification.

2. The gish-galloping is incredible with this one. Gives KellyAnn a run for her money in that

ignominious department. Unbelievable and Orwellian. The wretched hive of scum and villainy that is the IQ47 regime obviously believe they are accountable to nobody but Donald Trump himself. She knew that if she admitted to the OBVIOUS fact that Trump was displaying a doctored photo, he would lose his shit on her, and that was more important than being honest with the people of the USA.

On flipside Eric Swalwell.

4. She and blondie Bondi are neck and neck in the race as to which should face their well-earned KARMA first...

Yeah, there are a heck of a lot of men in that race too, but just focusing on these two for the moment.
