DHS Secretary Kristi Noem blasts ‘South Park’ after show brutally mocks her appearance

By Emily Crane
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has blasted South Park creators as “lazy” and “petty” after the show cruelly mocked her appearance — depicting her as a vain, botoxed bimbo.
“It never ends, but it’s so lazy to constantly make fun of women for how they look,” Noem, 53, told Glenn Beck on his podcast Thursday.
“It’s always the liberals and the extremists who do that. If they wanted to criticize my job, go ahead and do that, but clearly they can’t, they just pick something petty like that.”
