Noem, still sucking up: "Thank you @POTUS Trump for appointing me as the Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas"

Trump gave her a new phony job, Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas, which he said he will reveal more information about on Saturday.

Even after she was canned, Noem is still shamelessly sucking up to the president, gushing over her new made-up gig in a post on X.

“Thank you @POTUS Trump for appointing me as the Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas,” she said.
