You can’t make this shit up 🐶
“Less than worthlesss and untrainable” is a pretty accurate assessment of all republicans.

it’s always projection
Any Republicans in particular? Which are the most worthless ones?
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?
I assume she refers to herself as a responsible gun owner of course
I like how this is coming back into public knowledge after some washed up, irrelevant cartoon aired.
That “washed up irrelevant cartoon” got a contract for $1.5B. Totally washed up…
I’m just parroting what Trump said after the first episode. I love South Park ❤️
Oh!!! I see! I try not to listen to most of what he says, so I missed the reference. I’m watching all the new ones now!

So not only is she an awful human being, but she’s also an awful shot.
Whatever I’ll say it. Is she a dangerous sociopath, very likely. Does what she did to the goat fit the definition of the South Dakota law written above, doubt. A judge/ jury would find she thought a gunshot would kill the goat, and shot it. And since it is her story no one can prove she pranced around or did anything other than what she said she did, which was go get another “shell” to end its life. Her compete disregard for other peoples lives/feelings/wants/freedoms make her a shit person who should fear the possibility of her claimed religion being real. But being a shit person isn’t part of that law.
What I don’t understand is why I’ve seen people say she used a pistol and she keeps using the term shell. Her wording seems specific to her using a shotgun to shoot the goat, which should make it harder to miss… But it isn’t a guarantee. But my point being is that if she shot the dog with a pistol she had on her, she would have had to put the pistol away, see the goat, go grab a shotgun from the truck and shoot it at least once, and realize she was out of shells and go back.
She may need to see a specialist to figure out if she should be committed, but I don’t think anyone could prove she broke a law.

I see… Just normal serial killer behavior. I wonder why someone would want to put scores of people people matching a certain profile in the care of a serial killer?
pointing out that her killing of the goat appears to have violated the states animal cruelty laws
Killing billions of farmed animals a year: I sleep
Killing a pet: REAL SHIT BRO.

are you aware what happens in the animal agriculture industry?

How they’re “put down” (that’s a very kind euphemism) is only part of the problem. It’s how they’re forced to live
That’s their entire life.

This is the internet. Deflection from the point being made, in an effort to one-up or simply argue with a post.
So theyre forced to live just like the people Noem is kidnapping via ICE?
Between what the law says and what actually happens, there is a yawning gulf. It’s the same in basically all jurisdictions where there are animal-welfare laws. The meat industry is powerful and consumers are unrelenting in their clamor for cheap meat. With such incentives, the weakest link is always going to be animals, which by definition have no voice.
i feel like you’re a tad misinformed. They are super cruel to the animals. They split families up. They kill animals when they’re still children. They castrate pigs without anaesthetic. They cut off the beaks of chickens so they don’t peck each other. They throw male chicks into a giant masher ALIVE. How is that not cruel beyond cruel?

I didn’t say it doesn’t matter. I was merely pointing out that cunts will be like “THAT POOR DOG” then go home and eat a cow steak who was also tortured.
You support the Trump administration?
Because when this shit comes up and you do your best to shift the focus, that’s one of two conclusions I can come to.
Not withstanding what @boddhisatva wrote in reply and in no way a defense of the meat industry, you’re missing the point.
The point is the woman demonstrably lacks any empathy and in fact appears to be a sociopath. She should never have been in any position of power over others, far less the position she holds now.
It’s about her, not the animals (as horrible as it was for these, and is for other, animals).
But what about the children?
This is exactly my mental response to this kind of story. Total hypocrisy. Try to ignore the pushback, cognitive dissonance is a powerful thing.
She’s just proud of completing her SS training
I hate that I now live in this reality, but the US head of immigration is significantly more cruel to animals than the actual Nazis. The Nazis had very very very few redeeming features, but they were surprisingly decent in animal welfare.
Noem is roughly on their level when it comes to human welfare though, that’s more due to public perception than ethics though, I’m sure.
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 didn’t even know who she was until this post.
Or don’t. Decent satire but absolutely horrible episode. I almost did a spit take at the ending. Its barely even a coherent story.
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
They tend to treat dogs in particular as disposable things. Killing something they have control over is a common practice…for psychopaths.
It helps if your SS thinks of the other as little more than dogs, also shows you how fucking abysmally they must treat all the family pets if they think dogs aren’t worth protection.
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.
Oh for sure. Look at the Huckabees, dog torturing/killing family, much beloved by Trump. I’m Sarah Huckabee’s neighbor and her dog Traveler is a total asshole, my dog hates him, but I also feel bad for whatever might happen to him.
Way ahead of you. I’ve known this since she did it.
I don’t think that’s true. I think you learned it with the rest of us when she wrote about it in her book. Which is honestly way, way more wild, that she would consider doing this as a relatable story that she’d want people to know about her. True sociopath.
Oh, when I said “when she did it”, I don’t mean when she shot her puppy, I meant when she bragged about it.
Sure, I just felt the need to reiterate for people that this psychopath felt like shooting her puppy in the head was a nice story that would help her electability.
The sick psycho bastard is worthless and untrainable and she would have thrived in the NKVD, Mao’s CCP and the SA.
I don’t know much about her, but I’m guessing she is pro life.
Depends on your definition of pro life.
What is wrong with her face?
it’s filled with puppy fat from every one of her victims.
Stuff removed, stuff added, everything pulled tight. It’s like taxidermy but for still alive vanity-obsessed women, and it often looks like it too.
Taxidermy for her dead soul.
still alive
Debatable.
I’ve seen this news story so many times – months ago. And considering the inhumanity of this administration, the blatant violations of the law it commits, the blatant racism, and how it tramples on constitutional democracy, I am constantly amazed that it seems to be this stirring up American sentiment. That’s probably how it is in the age of social media. Not reason but a sob story with a puppy dog is what it takes to reach people.
Edit just to be on the safe side: This does not only apply to the US, of course—it is the same worldwide.

Also, the latest South Park episode went all in on showing her that way, into the credits lol
