Dog-murdering Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem was secretly paid at least $80,000 out of money she had raised for a nonprofit that promotes her political career while she was serving as governor of South Dakota in 2023, according to tax records obtained by ProPublica.
The money, which of course Noem did not list on her personal disclosure form to the Office of Government Ethics, was paid out from the dark money group – called “American Resolve Policy Fund” – to a Delaware LLC owned by Noem, from which she then took the $80,000 paycheck.
“If donors to these nonprofits are not just holding the keys to an elected official’s political future but also literally providing them with their income, that’s new and disturbing,” said former FEC attorney Daniel Weiner, now leads the Brennan Center for Justice’s campaign finance group.
