South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) was banned by a seventh tribe from coming onto their tribal land, “leaving the governor just two reservations she can still travel to,” the Dakota Scout reports.
“Like the tribes who have issued bans before them, tribal leaders cited Noem’s previous remarks about alleged drug cartel activity on the reservations as the primary reason for the ban.”
