South Dakota governor Kristi Noem continues to face backlash for overtly admitting to executing a young canine she as soon as had, however Seth Meyers is generally simply amazed that she admitted it in any respect. On Monday night time’s episode of “Late Night,” the NBC host marveled at her “level of psycho.”
In case you missed it, on Friday the Guardian obtained a replica of Noem’s upcoming memoir, wherein Noem recollects a narrative from roughly 13 years in the past, when she had a 14-month old pointer named Cricket.
The governor particulars how little or no she educated the canine — who, at 14 months old, might nonetheless be thought-about a puppy — and the way someday, after some rambunctious conduct by the pup that Noem couldn’t rein in herself, she determined the canine wanted to be put down. (Noem additionally overtly admitted that she “hated” the animal).
So, she apparently she took the canine to a close-by gravel pit the place she shot it herself.
“It’s horrible enough to kill a dog, but even crazier to brag about it,” Meyers mentioned throughout his “A Closer Look” section. “That’s a level of psycho I didn’t even know existed. Even Buffalo Bill had the self awareness to keep his abhorrent behavior indoors.”
Elsewhere within the e book, although apparently on the identical day she killed her young canine, Noem notes she additionally killed one among her goats she discovered notably smelly. And, because the backlash continues, she admitted to simply lately placing down three horses from the farm, which Seth Meyers was much more surprised by.
“Way to change the narrative!” Meyers mentioned mockingly. “‘Yeah, I killed the dog, but in my defense, also three horses. Sleep with your eyes open donkey!’”
