UNHINGED-Sen. Lee Schoenbeck Publicly Berates Citizens During Committee

SD Sen. Lee Schoenbeck, who has a history of slapping teens in the face, screaming obscenities and abusing the power he has gained during the last quarter century, as the president pro-tem of the SD State Senate. After twenty-five-years in power, Schoenbeck is arguably the most powerful man in South Dakota politics with more influence than the Governor herself. That influence and power is often used to threaten, coerce and intimidate anyone with whom Schoenbeck disagrees, and on Feb 15, 2023, Lee did just that to a group of citizens sitting in the gallery of the capitol.
