The pincer movement which Kristi Noem is caught in

It doesn't take too much thinking to see that the Federal v States issue is fraught.  If you have a pro-American Pres v corrupt DemRat States then one leans federally and more pro-EO.  If it's a pro-South Dakota good person v corrupt DemRat DC, then one is anti-EO and pro-States Rights.

No one can envy the poor woman, particularly as her prime directive is to get business into South Dakota, her job does not involve supporting MAGA.  However, her personal upbringing and mindset is very much God and MAGA, and to complete the pincer movement on her - businesses have almost all gone over to anti-MAGA, Woke practices and the global communist paradigm.

Thus Amazon, among others, say to her yes, we'll invest in your State, as long as you accept our Woke evil.  Tucker represents the understandable national reaction to her capitulation [H/T Steve here]:

... and on a far lesser level, this is the reaction of the average pundit:

Both Tucker and little ole I are right to castigate her, putting the big picture, whereas she can only put the SD picture, yet she needs to put the big picture because her re-election in that State, and that of others like her, hands by a thread on this entirely artificial issue introduced by the professional planners and implementers of evil.

Does she say no to Woke business in her State, giving the evil muvvers all the fuel they needed, or does she compromise with the evil, in order to make SD prosperous?

She's a Christian - she needs to get down on her knees and ask advice, rather than listening to her lawyers from hell.
