It is a historic day in SD! Congrats to Kristi Noem on her confirmation, and to our 34th Governor, Larry Rhoden @LGRhoden. A new governor means a new chapter in SD history - here is my blog post on our 34th Governor. sodakgovs.com/2025/01/25/lar…

🚨 🇺🇸 JD VANCE: ‘TRUMP SCREWED WITH ME OVER THE DIET COKE BUTTON’ “He screwed with me about that, I know. So, we were just mid-conversation—I think we were with Leader John Thune and Speaker Mike Johnson he had this sort of beautiful, ornate wooden box on his desk with a red button.

What a difference a few days make! Compared to Tuesday morning's wind chill values, this afternoon's forecast high temperatures will "feel" as much as 80-100 degrees warmer. Enjoy!

Finally some unity!

The lack of “local control” this legislative session by the same folks who preach it during campaigns is unfortunate. GOP used to want to cut red tape in order to find efficiencies in government, not by adding more laws and growing state government. Under God the People Rule.

Survive and advance. #GoYotes x #WeAreSouthDakota

CRST tribal member and UND standout Treysen Eaglestaff with 51 points to knock off SDSU MBB in summit league. 🤯 That upset, plus an exhilarating performance by South Dakota Men's Basketball tonight is proof the men’s side of The Summit League tournament is up for grabs by anyone this year! 🏀 🐺

This except it’s a wife who’s super creative and talented with an immaculate side hustle cake business, plus three cute kids laughing, smiling, and telling jokes. When it feels chaotic, it’s nice to take a breath and enjoy what’s really important and right here in front of me.

The Sioux Metro Region would be a great home for the American-owned TikTok. We have the people, the places, and the industries to make this vision a reality. There’s no better region to live, work, and play than the #SiouxMetro. 🤝🏽

Keep the votes rolling in! There’s no place like Dome. 😍
