NEW: DHS invoked the “national emergency” at the border to skirt competitive bidding rules for a $220 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign. We found that a firm with deep ties to Kristi Noem secretly benefited from the deal.

@theotherstallonedaily With peace and love this was genuinely the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. To be fair to the people on the boat we walked over to where they launched and they are given zero instructions.
