South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is a true conservative from head to toe. Because of that, the Left wants to destroy her.
And now Kristi Noem’s been brutally attacked in this disgusting way.
Kristi Noem is on a short list of true conservative Governors who won’t sell out for political or personal gain.
Her determined nature has won her a ton of fans in conservative circles.
But that also means the Left has put her in their sights.
They want nothing more than to make an example out of her – no matter the cost. And the way they are doing it is truly gross.
According to reports, Kristi Noem’s personal Social Security Number has been leaked by the federal government online, unredacted for all to see.
The federal government also leaked the SSNs for her husband and her three kids.
After learning that her Social Security Number was exposed by the federal government in a document pertaining to the House Select Committee’s investigation into the protests on January 6, Governor Kristi Noem (R-S.D.) is demanding explanations.
Noem’s attorneys denounced the security lapse in a letter to Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), asking how the agencies intended to handle the high-risk situation.
“Gov. Noem and her family are now at very high risk of identity theft and being personally compromised due to the failure to redact the social security numbers and make the same available to the public,” the letter reads.
The Social Security numbers of Noem’s husband, three children, and son-in-law were also exposed.
When Noem and her family visited the former President Trump at the White House in December 2020, Noem claimed that their personal information was entered into visitor logs, which later served as evidence before the Jan. 6 Committee.
The Washington Post reported that as the Committee’s inquiry came to an end, those visitation logs—which also included text messages and audio interviews—were uploaded online.
My lawyers have asked the @WhiteHouse, the @USNatArchives, and @BennieGThompson which of them is responsible for leaking the Social Security Numbers of me, my husband, my 3 kids, and my son-in-law.

As a result, this week, a spreadsheet with the Social Security Numbers without redactions was uploaded to the internet before being removed on Wednesday.
As stated in the letter, Noem and her family are “now at a very high risk of identity theft and being personally compromised due to the failure to redact the social security numbers and making the same available to the public.” Noem’s attorneys are requesting a response by January 13th.
According to the governor, the Privacy Act of 1974 was specifically broken by the security compromise.
“We expect a detailed response addressing how the breach of privacy occurred, who was responsible, what steps breach of you has taken to remedy the breach, and what specific measures and remedies will be taken to protect Gov. Noem and her family,” the letter continued.
It’s truly unbelievable that the federal government could be so careless with such sensitive information, like Social Security Numbers.
It makes one wonder if it was an intentional attack on Noem because of her political beliefs.
