The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Seems that Noem and her favorite squeeze, Cory Lewandowski (both are married, but not to each-other) had to change planes due to an unspecified maintenance issue. Noem left her blankie behind on the first plane. The pilot did not notice, and automatically scoop up Noem's blankie and run it to the other plane, like a good servant should. Hissy fits ensued. Lewandowski fired the pilot, a Coast Guardsman. Then, realizing they couldn't get to their destination, without a pilot, the "stable geniuses" then rehired the pilot.

ICE Barbie’s Alleged Lover Fired Her Pilot for Absurd Reason

Corey Lewandowski, who serves as a senior adviser to the Department of Homeland Security Secretary, fired the pilot after a blanket belonging to Noem was left behind on a different plane, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.

In another plot twist, the pilot was then reinstated after no one else was available to fly the pair home.

A DHS spokeswoman who spoke to the Wall Street Journal did not specifically address the blanket incident, but said that Noem has “made personnel decisions to deliver excellence.”
