It seems extremely unlikely that you haven’t already heard the story of South Dakota governor Kristi Noem shooting her dog, Cricket. And also her unnamed goat. And more recently, putting down three horses via unspecified means. But on the off-chance you haven’t, give this link a read, so you can be aware of what a lunatic this woman is.

Noem has told this story herself, in her forthcoming book, in an ill-advised attempt to demonstrate her ability to do difficult things. Much like the dearly departed Cricket, however, that dog won’t hunt. This story speaks volumes about Noem, and every single thing it says about her is negative. Even at a time when 88 felony charges aren’t enough to sink a political future, this may be too much.

But speaking of the incredibly stupid season we seem to be living through, the question I have is this: how long will it be before conservatives start shooting their dogs to own the woke libs?
