I checked out Kristi Noem's twitter page [View all]

She has a big glossy post up there advertising her new book where she brags about killing her puppy. She's apparently added some BS about how these things happen on a farm and she's trying to troll the press and her critics about being politically incorrect.

She's disgusting of course, but like all magats she's all in on anything that makes her money and doesn't require any brains. So I think that maybe her publisher will be hearing from people. Because she is getting ratioed like nobody's business and I don't think people are going to let this go.
