We take protection of rights very seriously, including the right to peacefully protest. But rioting and looting will NOT be tolerated in South Dakota.Make no mistake, mob rule and violence do nothing to honor the memory of victims. (2/3)

South Dakota hoped for the best but prepared for the worst. We activated the National Guard the minute things turned violent, and the Guard is already on the ground in Sioux Falls. This is a specialized unit that is prepared for situations like this. (1/3)

Today America lost a hero. I was blessed to call Sam a colleague and friend. He would tell stories and I would think to myself about how the rest of us don’t have any idea of what “hard” is. Lifting up prayers of peace for Sam’s family tonight. https://twitter.com/texhpf/status/1265796388681588740 https://twitter.com/govkristinoem/status/1265833259260350465/photo/1

One of MANY, MANY notes we’ve gotten. Our people - smart, prudent, responsible South Dakotans - get all the credit for where we are today. Have a safe #MemorialDay to all those coming to visit @southdakota this weekend! https://twitter.com/lauralynn209/status/1261839803563163648
