Kristi Noem is fuming after being targeted in a scathing new episode of South Park.

The Secretary of Homeland Security lashed out on The Glenn Beck Program Thursday, crying foul over the way the show portrayed her in one of its most brutal episodes yet.

“Yeah, it never ends. But it’s so lazy to just constantly make fun of women for how they look. It’s only the liberals and the extremists who do that,” Noem said.

The episode pulled no punches. In one scene, Noem’s face literally falls apart as she suits up for an ICE raid—until a team of makeup artists rushes in to fix her Botox. Another moment shows her proudly arresting Dora the Explorer.

But South Park didn’t stop at mocking her appearance. It went hard at her role in Trump’s mass deportation push. One scene shows ICE agents storming Heaven to detain the souls of brown-skinned people. Another features her shooting a service dog—referencing a real story from her own book, where she admits to killing a puppy she couldn’t train.

“If they wanted to criticize my job, go ahead and do that, but clearly they can’t,” Noem said, brushing off the satire as unfair and sexist.

While the episode stirred up laughs online, Noem clearly didn’t find it funny — and she’s making sure everyone knows it. Listen to her remarks below:
