Potential Trump VP pick Gov. Kristi Noem says she shot dead a ‘less than worthless’ dog, ‘disgusting’ goat​

Published April 26, 2024, 2:24 p.m. ET

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, who is widely tipped to be former President Donald Trump’s likely pick as running mate, has admitted shooting dead one of her dogs for being “less than worthless” — and similarly killing a goat she found “disgusting.”


The 52-year-old Republican detailed the killings in an upcoming memoir as proof she is willing to do “difficult, messy and ugly” things when needed, according to the Guardian, which obtained an advance copy.


“Cricket was a wirehair pointer, about 14 months old,” she said of the soon-to-be-shot pup with an “aggressive personality” that made her “untrainable.”

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, who is widely tipped to be former President Donald Trump’s likely pick as running mate, has admitted shooting dead one of her dogs for being “less than worthless” — and similarly killing a goat she found “disgusting.”


The 52-year-old Republican detailed the killings in an upcoming memoir as proof she is willing to do “difficult, messy and ugly” things when needed, according to the Guardian, which obtained an advance copy.


“Cricket was a wirehair pointer, about 14 months old,” she said of the soon-to-be-shot pup with an “aggressive personality” that made her “untrainable.”

Noem took Cricket on a hunt to learn from other dogs — but she instead ruined the hunt by going “out of her mind with excitement” and attacking some chickens like a “trained assassin,” Noem wrote.

When Noem tried to grab the dog, it “whipped around to bite me,” she wrote.

“I hated that dog,” Noem continued, calling Cricket “dangerous to anyone she came in contact with” and “less than worthless … as a hunting dog.”



“At that moment, I realized I had to put her down.”

Noem, who also represented her state in Congress for eight years, explained that she then got her gun and led Cricket to a gravel pit.


“It was not a pleasant job,” she said, “but it had to be done.”


She recalled how her daughter, Kennedy “looked around confused” when she came home from school that day, asking: “Hey, where’s Cricket?”

The report did not say exactly when Cricket was killed. But it was not the only animal the politician writes about shooting dead.


Noem also detailed how she killed a “nasty and mean” male goat because it had not been castrated.


She described the animal as smelling “disgusting, musky, rancid” and claimed it “loved to chase” Noem’s children and knock them down.

The goat was also “dragged to a gravel pit,” but jumped when she pulled the trigger, and subsequently survived the wound. Noem went back to her truck to retrieve another shell, then “hurried back to the gravel pit and put him down,” she wrote.


“I guess if I were a better politician I wouldn’t tell the story here,” she concluded the story.


A construction crew witnessed her kill both animals, she said in the book, “No Going Back: The Truth on What’s Wrong with Politics and How We Move America Forward,” which is due to be published next month.

Noem — whom Trump has said is on his shortlist to run as Vice President — addressed the report Friday while plugging the upcoming book.

“We love animals, but tough decisions like this happen all the time on a farm,” she wrote on X alongside a screenshot of the Guardian article. Sadly, we just had to put down 3 horses a few weeks ago that had been in our family for 25 years.

"If you want more real, honest, and politically INcorrect stories that’ll have the media gasping, preorder ‘No Going Back,'” she wrote along with a link.

I'm sure there's better ways to put down a dog than just "calling it worthless." I'm guess I'm too much of a libtard to respect animals.

 

[888Flux]

America is ruled by fuking insane people who are so far detached from reality

yeah i shoot WORTHLESS puppies and farm animals unlike those demoKKKrats. now buy my book!!!!

daily reminder that government officials are not people and there is no act against them which is wrong

 

[MadStan]

Ive threatened to beat the shit out of people I’ve seen mistreating dogs. To shoot one for being worthless? WOW; what a piece of shit.

Potential Trump VP pick Gov. Kristi Noem

Not anymore LOL.
Hopefully this fiasco leads to her getting primaried out because her actual politics suck ass too.

 

[Curzon Dax-sama]

All edge, no point - all to own the shitlibs?

 

[Diana Moon Glampers]

She killed a dog who killed a coop full of chickens while people screamed at it to stop and then turned to bite humans who were stopping it. Good riddance. Oh no muh cruelty to animals. If a dog is a menace, it gets shot. "Oh, she should have had a vet do it." Yeah ok.

 

[Chongqing]

Dogs like that should absolutely be killed. They're not humans. They're not Pokémon.

 

[Gog & Magog]

Why is the article split up into multiple quotes?

 

[MarvinTheParanoidAndroid]

If it's a pit bull then all is forgiven.

 

[Lone MacReady II]

Noem eh? Will I be surprised at all when I research her family's religious history?

 

[VeteranOfTheRetardWars]

Dude like half the politicians fuck kids on secret islands and penthouses, and you’re worried about a dog.

 

[FuhrerMustang]

Trump, please don't put a GOP skank like this on the ticket.

When Noem tried to grab the dog, it “whipped around to bite me,” she wrote.

“I hated that dog,” Noem continued, calling Cricket “dangerous to anyone she came in contact with” and “less than worthless … as a hunting dog.”

So she put down a dog that was aggressive and bit people. Oh no, what a monster.

I get that it's an election year and journos are desperate for reasons that voting for anyone but Biden is dangerous to our democracy, but surely there's better outrage bait in this book than "Noem did what PETA does a thousand times a day".

When women want to seem ‘tough’, they fall back on the vilest shit males do, and embrace it fully. Trophy hunting is another theyll do. Worthless cunt put that bullet in the wrong head.

Why would you even put this out in the public space? What demographic is shooting a dog trying to attract?

 

[Milkshake Sniffer]

All rather performative. And irrelevant. On the subject of the "disgusting, messy and ugly things", her credibility took a nose dive when she bent over for the troons. She had been doing so well during the Kung Flu and then knelt the moment she had to face a pustulating mutilated woman penis oozing miscellaneous fluids known only to Keffels' bathtub.

The kind of Fudd who already made up her base, as it were. Fans of Mike Rowe.

 

[isalaide]

Only a fucking maniac brags in writing about blowing the family pet's brains out in a gravel pit.

Even if she was convinced the dog was dangerous, humane euthanasia exists for a good reason.

 

[888Flux]

What demographic is shooting a dog trying to attract?

People who drive around with this sticker on their car:

The kind of Fudd who already made up her base, as it were. Fans of Mike Rowe

this too

She killed a dog who killed a coop full of chickens while people screamed at it to stop and then turned to bite humans who were stopping it. Good riddance. Oh no muh cruelty to animals. If a dog is a menace, it gets shot. "Oh, she should have had a vet do it." Yeah ok.

did you take the S.W.E.A.T pledge today???
