I read that excerpt from Governor Noem's book about killing her dog and how things are different on the farm. I grew up on a farm and could hunt and shoot a rifle before I could ride a bicycle. What she said was crap. Not all hunting dogs work out but you don't kill them.
@CherilynMo31034
I hear you, Jenee. Same here. Hunting dogs are just like humans - some have talent and others don't. We always had 2 or 3 house dogs and they ALL were hunters that didn't work out. We didn't kill them, we loved them as cherished members of our family.
@A_Sober_Drunk
If that's SOP in South Dakota then they are a strange and unusual state.
SOP in Texas is:
- Chicken owners keep their birds penned up so predators can't get to them.
- If a hunting dog doesn't work out we make them a house pet, or give them to a neighbor in town for a pet.
@Rufusthedog66
There's all kinds of options that don't involve killing the dog. And memo to the governor: All young dogs will kill chickens. The neighbors need to keep them in their pen.
I want you to look at this, especially you Republicans, and tell me HONESTLY if someone who would post something as childish and mean spirited as this on social media is someone you trust with the nuclear codes?
@DebRStrong
@Lee_in_Iowa
That and why did the chicken owner not have the chickens in a pen. That's a must on a farm. It's not just rambunctious puppies but coyotes, foxes and bobcats that will get your chickens. Anyone that has them knows you keep them secured.
@DocBrownLloyd
I'm terrible at stuff like this but having fun reading all the "entries"
FYI, my daughter has autism and loves watching the same movies over and over again. The BTTF trilogy is her favorite and she has probably watched them all close to 100 times each....seriously. 🥰
@KariLake
Come on folks, there are times we put aside the politics and just be human for a few moments. I'm praying for peace and comfort for Sheriff Lamb and the Lamb family on this heartbreaking loss. God bless them and all families dealing with tragedy. 🙏❤️
My dad gave me my first gun when I was 12. I own 6 now. I have a 12-gauge shotgun sitting by my bed for protection. And I am not a liberal.
Our gun laws are a joke. You do not need an assault rifle with a large capacity magazine to shoot a deer or protect your home.
@SirJeremyLondon
My dad was a lifelong Republican (as I was until 2016) and he voted for the Democrat candidate for President in 2016 and 2020. He was done with the GOP after Trump came along, and so was I.
@lindyli
Yeah just my opinion but stealing $5 million from poor folks is a little worse than taking a knee to protest police brutality. Kind of hard to argue that point, Mr. Favre.
@gnuman1979
Wait, Jamie. Let me see if I have this straight. He bought 20 at $99 each, so that's almost $2,000, for gifts. And is just now finding out they are digital and he can't give them as gifts?
That's both sad and hilarious at the same time. 😢😂
@lindyli
I agree. But I will add:
It doesn't matter if this was a gay tryst
It doesn't matter if they knew each other
It doesn't matter if they ever met
An elderly man was brutally attacked and his skull fractured with a hammer. That's ALL that matters. Full stop.
John Fetterman introduces a bill eliminating school lunch debt for all children.
Ted Cruz introduces a bill limiting pronouns and names.
How's that for a contrast?
@RonnyJacksonTX
You know, Mr. Jackson, I was raised to believe that if you're going to criticize or complain, be prepared to offer a solution. You don't like electric cars? Then what's your solution?
@AMcAfeeRealtor
My guess is she thought it would appeal to the MAGA base and make her appear to be a bad ass. That was a really bad misjudgment on her part. I see both red and blue condemning her over this.
@joncoopertweets
I own six guns and none are assault rifles or other weapons with high capacity magazines. I have no need for them. I can protect my home just fine with what I have.
Assault weapons should be banned and the minimum age to purchase any firearm raised to 21.
@lindyli
And a just-turned 18 year old is old enough to buy an AR-15 to kill children with - that's ok. So to sum up:
- 10 years old is old enough to have children
- 18 years old is old enough to buy an AR-15
- But you must be 21 to vote
@cmgatlin
@A_Sober_Drunk
I grew up in rural Texas, Chuck and disagree with you. If a bird dog attacks a chicken (a bird) that's the fault of the owner for letting him off leash and the chicken owner for not penning his birds. Either way it's not a 14-month old puppies fault. We never killed a dog.
@Mollyploofkins
I live on the border. People don't understand how it is down here. To us, the border is not a border it's just a river. We have family on both sides. Some of those coming over are relatives. And it's been this way all our lives. This is nothing new.
This is such total BS. I am a liberal arts professor at a large 4-year state university. I don't know what my students political leanings are. This is ridiculous and a lie. Stated with zero proof. Just another MAGA Republican trying to stir the pot and divide us more.
@Alyssa_Milano
Here's an example of how out of control this is:
The USA has had 36 mass shootings in the first 3 weeks of the year. Canada has less than half that number in its 155 year history.
I keep seeing posts that say, "Obama was the beginning of the downfall of America". Every time I see that I asked the tweeter to provide specific examples.
And do you know I have not received a single reply? Some have told me to F**k off, but no one can provide an example. 🤔
You know, it's just my opinion, but for a killer to do a talk at Kent State of all places, less than 3 weeks from the anniversary of the Kent State massacre is pretty disgusting and low class.
In case you wondered....

@TedNugent
So wait lol. Let me get this straight. The president of a tiny, corrupt, third world country thinks poorly of us and in your mind that means we are the laughingstock of the world? Really? 😂
@MrMaxNorthman
None of those. I've actually become quite enamored with Hakeem Jeffries as of late. I also would put California Governor Newsom ahead of these four. But that's just me and my humble opinion. I'm not even a Democrat.
@NickAdamsinUSA
I don't know much about football so I looked him up. He's 6'5, buff, hot, a 2X Super Bowl champion who is dating a gorgeous and talented mega superstar.
Not sure how you & the Alpha Males evaluate people, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't suck.
Think I see some jealousy here 🤣🤣
Mr. Nugent, you need to turn off cable news and stop listening to the idiot politicians.
Our country is not in the toilet. We are the strongest nation on earth with a standard of living among the best in the world. Stop being brainwashed. Open your eyes and look around.

@GOP
The Republican tax cut of 2017 made taxes PERMANENT for corporations, but only temporary for the average citizen. For most middle class taxpayers these cuts expire in 2025, while corporations, who are already enjoying record profits, continue to enjoy the free ride forever.
@KristiNoem
Let me tell you something. I grew up on a farm and learned to hunt from an early age. We had hunting dogs and sometimes they didn't work out. We didn't kill them. They became our house pets and were beloved members of our family. You don't kill your dogs. That's messed up.

@elonmusk
It's a freaking social networking site for god's sake, it's not the FBI or the Federal Reserve Bank. What's with all the corruption stuff? I come here to chat and argue about stuff and flirt lol. 🤪
@wyonaf
I was a member of the GOP for many years and left in 2016. Trump and the turn toward meanness, hate and intolerance was the catalyst. Also as a minority I had a sense that there was racism bubbling just below the surface of it all.
@PattyMurray
I know you and many others will not agree. We all have our own beliefs and opinions. But with all respect I wish you folks would stop calling abortion "health care" - it's really not ya know? Health care is treating illness, giving vaccines, you know...health care!
@AdamKinzinger
Yeah but it wasn't just any sharpie, it was the biggest sharpie and the best, the best ever, a sharpie like there has never been before and no one has ever caught a sharpie like that before in the history of America and never will 🤪
@RonFilipkowski
Why do people pose with their guns? I own a bunch and I'm pretty sure I don't have a single photo of me posing with any of them. Seriously.🤪
@AdamParkhomenko
@AmericanVet304
That's good, but you know that right now the GOP'ers are tweeting, "Tonight Democrat Mandela Barnes lost his debate to Republican Ron Johnson in a devastating way for Democrats"
I been around. I know how this stuff works 😆
@RonnyJacksonTX
Two questions, Dr. Jackson:
1. Can you give me any examples that demonstrate what you mean by "WOKE military"?
2. Can you provide specific examples of why recruiting goals are not being met for the reason you state?
Thank you, have a blessed day 🙂
@RepMTG
Yes, and over 25% of that, $7.8 trillion, was added to the debt during the four years of the Trump presidency. Another in a long line of reasons we needed new leadership.
@Len_Future
Well I don't know who the candidates will be, Len, but one thing I can say for sure, the ex member of the GOP will NOT be voting for the Republican candidate, no matter who it may be. 😊
@hodgetwins
@AdamKinzinger
Really? I've had both vaccines and two boosters and I haven't developed myocarditis or blood clots. Neither have my friends, family or colleagues. I think you're being drama queens and spreading false information.
@GOP
So, a political party that puts special interests firsts, eh? There's an old saying, GOP, about the "pot calling the kettle black". I think its a very appropriate saying right about now 🤣
@BrandonDubisky
I'm an ex smoker, Brandon. You can do this. The first 10 days or so are the hardest. You'll have hard cravings for a few more weeks but they're short - just 30-60 seconds or so. You got this. I just said a prayer that God will grant you strength. It's important - do it!! 🙏
@RockNRoLL_85
Impossible question, I would be torn between Janis Joplin, Grace Slick, Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt, Roseanne Cash, Sheryl Crow, Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Allison Krauss - do you see where this is going and I'm just getting warmed up and already out of characters
@VernonForGA
No, a damning video did not surface, nor is Attorney General James in big trouble.
And the Conservative Brief is not a legitimate news organization. It’s a couple of guys in the basement of a home in Tennessee with no journalistic qualifications who just make stuff up.
@thedesertginger
Hunter Biden is not a government official. Nor does he in any other way affect my life. So that whole thing, in my opinion, is just another time and money wasting activity of our do-nothing congress.
They're just playing politics instead of doing their job - as always.
@luluHru
But none of them have been charged with a crime.
Joe Biden: 0
Laura Bush: 0
George W. Bush: 0
Bill Clinton: 0
Hillary Clinton: 0
George H.W. Bush: 0
Barack Obama: 0
Michelle Obama: 0
Donald Trump: 91
@LePapillonBlu2
I just want two things:
1) He never runs for public office again, ever.
2) He shuts up forever. And ever. And ever.
Whatever it takes to get those two things done is what I want. ☺️
@Alicia0Givens
They have eyes, yet they do not see. A simple, no brainer law raising the age to buy firearms from 18 to 21 would probably have saved lives that day. Yet they (the Republicans) won't do anything that might piss off the NRA or their base. Oh, I'm a lifelong gun owner btw.
@AnnieForTruth
I'm actually not a fan of her or her politics, Annie, but she is the Speaker of the House and I respect that, plus she is a child of God and I respect that even more. It's just more of the same from this crowd - they hate anything that is not in the image of the great god Trump.
