You Should Know

This is the puppy. Immediately after she shot a pet goat that “disgusted” her.

Oh my fucking god what the hell is in the water over there?

She wrote it in her fucking auto-biography! She was bragging about it! She was proud of it, she thought it made her sound tough, but it only made her sound like the psychopath that she is.

BTW, she also wrote that after killing the puppy, she immediately killed a goat that she said was "disgusting." So she got angry enough at a recalcitrant puppy that she yanked out a handgun and shot it, and was still so fired up, she had to kill something else, too.

I've been really angry before, but never angry enough to pull a gun and start killing all the innocent animals in my proximity. Now that she is essentially untouchable, what happens if she gets that furious at a person?

Bitch doesn't look very "american" by her own standards, does she? Time to visit salvador I guess.

Has anyone else noticed the high number of outright Psychopaths are in the trump Reich? It's becoming obvious that they are actively seeking them out ..

I wonder why that is

“Less than worthlesss and untrainable” is a pretty accurate assessment of all republicans.

Kristi "Dog Terminator" Noem

Is there anyone reading Lemmy that wasn't already aware of this one? I mean, it's not bad to bring it up again (and again, and again, etc), but it's hardly news.

But if you haven't already, be sure to see the second 2025 episode of South Park!

I like how this is coming back into public knowledge after some washed up, irrelevant cartoon aired.

Here is another article that takes a more detailed take about what she bragged about in her book. It also focuses more on the legal aspects, pointing out that her killing of the goat appears to have violated the states animal cruelty laws. If nothing else, the details about this give a clear, and disturbing view into the type of person she is.

“Walking back up to the yard, I spotted our billy goat,” Noem wrote.

The nameless goat’s only sin in that moment was being in Noem’s field of view.

In the book, Noem tried to justify her snap decision to kill the goat by writing that it “loved to chase” her children and would “knock them down and butt them,” leaving them “terrified.” The animal also had a “wretched smell.”

But apparently none of that had been a big enough problem to do anything about it. Not until Noem got angry enough to kill a dog and decided she needed to kill again.

Noem says she “dragged” the goat to the gravel pit, “tied him to a post,” and shot at him. But the goat jumped when she shot.

“My shot was off and I needed one more shell to finish the job,” she wrote.

She studiously avoided saying she wounded the goat with the first shot, but that’s the implication.

“Not wanting him to suffer,” she added — apparently experiencing her first twinge of feeling, after saying that killing the dog was not “pleasant” — “I hustled back across the pasture to the pickup, grabbed another shell, hurried back to the gravel pit, and put him down.”

....

In reality, what Noem did to the goat — dragging it to a gravel pit, tying it to a post, shooting at it once, leaving to get another shell, and shooting it again — sounds an awful lot like the legal definition of animal cruelty. That definition in South Dakota law is “to intentionally, willfully, and maliciously inflict gross physical abuse on an animal that causes prolonged pain, that causes serious physical injury, or that results in the death of the animal.”

My father was terrible towards my brother and I but he was even worse towards animals. Any sign of behavior that he could interpret as "disrespect" or aggression from an animal and he'd either abuse it or kill it. And he was also so fucking proud of himself after even bragging about it like he was some paragon of masculinity asserting his dominion over man and beast.

The fucking psychopath still wonders why I don't talk to him outside of the holidays and family crises.

The sick psycho bastard is worthless and untrainable and she would have thrived in the NKVD, Mao's CCP and the SA.

She killed her puppy in a gravel pit, and got such a buzz off of it, she killed her goat right after.

She's just proud of completing her SS training

Same Kristi Noem who as governor spent $5 million of S. Dakota's COVID money on a tourism campaign, saying her state was coping with the pandemic using "personal responsibility and freedom".

I have a theory about her intentions for writing about killing that dog.

Noem published her autobiography while vying to be the republican running mate in the election. On the one hand, why would she choose to publish something so openly sinister in her autobiography, at such a consequential time for her political career? She must have known that story would get picked up and blasted in the media. But part of me wonders if maybe, that was her goal. Maybe by including the dog story in her book, Noem was sending a signal to Trump that she wouldn't flinch to do the cruel, dirty work that maga wants done. And now here she is, doing dirty work.

"We love animals, but tough decisions like this happen all the time on a farm," Noem wrote. "Sadly, we just had to put down 3 horses a few weeks ago that had been in our family for 25 years."

Has anyone looked into these horses??
