Governor. Kristi Noem (Republican-State of Delaware) CNN hosted another round of the interview with Kristi Noem (R-S.D. State of the Union host Dana Bash. Dana Bash was harassed by her to endorse an Ohio abortion for a 10-year-old girl who had been raped.
Right after that, Bash interviewed Rep. Adam Kinzinger and told him her 11-year-old son would appreciate him calling Liz Cheney’s primary opponents “a bunch of armpit farters.” Bash is just that shameless.
She began by peppering Noem with a barrage of questions insisting she support paid family leave and taxpayer-subsidized child care in South Dakota now that abortion is largely outlawed in the state.
After the questions about child-rape, Noem moved on to the next question. Noem focused on the predator and then expressed the pro-life position that abortion after rape is adding a tragedy to a tragedy.
Bash also asked Noem if she was alarmed at what she heard in Cassidy Hutchinson’s January 6 committee testimony, and Noem denounced the hearing as more of a TV show than a fact-finding mission. Bash followed up: “I want to ask even more broadly, do you believe that President Trump bears any responsibility for what happened on January 6?” She pressed twice for Noem to assign blame to Trump, and Noem wouldn’t play. Noem did say “I think January 6 was a horrific day in our history. I never want to see that happen again.”
Noem was often interrupted for more than 15 minutes by Bash, but Kinzinger allowed her to answer long questions without interruption. She began by setting up Kinzinger to denounce Noem as someone he used to respect, claiming she now sounds like she’s in The Invasion by the Body Snatchers.
The utterance about Liz Cheney’s opponents wasn’t even a question:
Your colorful response to the debate was using terms that my eleven-year-old son would enjoy. Your opponent was, quote: “a bunch armpit-farters.”Realistically, however, they could both win November.
Bash’s only tough question came on how the 1/6 committee failed to check with the Secret Service before putting on Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony that Trump somehow grabbed for the wheel of his limo and moved to grab the neck of a Secret Service agent. “Trump allies are trying to use this to discredit all of her testimony. Why did the committee put this out there, ask her about this, that she heard secondhand, without first obtaining corroborating evidence?”
This is quite a feat that Kinzinger dares his enemies to testify publicly and not by hiding behind the media. Are we to believe Kinzinger hasn’t been an anonymous source in his war on Republicans?
Bash’s partial approach to Bash was partly supported by Servpro And Azo Urinary Pain Relief.

CNN’s State of the Union
July 3, 2022
BASH: Indianapolis StarReports that a 10-year old girl from Ohio, who was just six weeks and three day pregnant, now must travel over state borders to Indiana in order to have an abortion. This is a trigger statute that you passed prior to becoming governor. I want you to know. What happens if South Dakota forces a 10 year-old to have a baby in the same way?
NOEM: Dana, you know something I believe is amazing about this sad story. It’s because I was just hearing about it last night. Amazingly, nobody is talking about this perverse, terrible and deranged person who raped the 10-year-old.
BASH: Right.
NoEM: What is it? What can be done about it? What can be done about the individuals who are doing this to our children?
BASH: Yes, that’s what I meant. It is important to have this discussion. However, the…
NOEM: If you rape children, the Supreme Court is also weighing in.
BASH: Yes. That is what I understand. However, are you…
NOEM
BASH: Right. BASH: I can’t agree with you more.
NOEM: So, this…
BASH: Our bodies are what they are, and it is women who become pregnant. In this instance, the woman was a girl. It was a girl.
NOEM = It is a child. It’s just a child.
BASH: Does she need to have — a baby? Unborn child. Is she allowed to have this baby?
NOEM: Every life, every life, is precious. This is an awful tragedy. I can’t even imagine. It’s something I have never seen anyone in my family go through. I can’t even imagine. South Dakota’s current law says that abortions are against the law, unless they save the mother’s life.
BASH
NOEM: That’s not right. I’m sure that this story will keep you up at night. You can be sure of that.
BASH
NOEM: I am so broken. It breaks my heart. I’m also a grandmother. I have a one-year old granddaughter, Ms. Addie. I can’t even imagine.
It is my opinion that: It is not my belief that a tragedy should continue.There are many things we can do to ensure that every life we live is truly precious. This includes innocent lives that have been destroyed, such as that of the 10-year-old girl.
BASH: Yeah. This is incredibly complex. And I get it. It is a difficult question, however. It seems like you’re everywhere.The question may be this: What is the physical state of a 10-year-old girl?
NOEM: No.
BASH: You are unable to carry your baby and not be physically or emotionally tortured. Do you think that this would put the life of a mother in danger?
NOEM: I believe that that is something that — yes, that situation, and the family, those closest to it will make that decision for the family.
This is what makes the present so interesting. Every state has its own laws. The legislators closest to the people will decide. That’s appropriate. That’s how our Constitution meant it.
South Dakota may have laws that are very different from California’s. They may also look different than New York’s. The governor of South Dakota has stated that she would like to make New York a place that provides abortions. It’s not South Dakota’s story. It is possible that every governor in every state would make very different decisions about what their laws will look like.
