Hey, check out my new outfit. It’s a skin suit! (he really went for it)

Kristi Noem, the governor of South Dakota and a possible running mate for Donald Trump, in her new book, first obtained by the Guardian, Noem admitted to killing her dog. It was a 14-month-old wirehaired pointer named Cricket. It’s one thing to kill a dog named Cricket, it’s another to brag about it in a book. She thought telling that story would make her look cool. It’s horrible enough to kill a dog, but even crazier to brag about it. That’s a level of psycho I didn’t even know existed. Even Buffalo Bill [from The Silence of the Lambs] had the self-awareness to keep his abhorrent behavior indoors. He didn’t walk around town saying, ‘Hey, check out my new outfit. It’s a skin suit!’” —Seth Meyers

Noem defended her actions on X, formerly Twitter, writing: “tough decisions like this happen all the time on a farm” and that she just had to “put down 3 horses a few weeks ago”. Way to change the narrative. ‘Yeah, I killed a dog. But in my defense: also, three horses. Sleep with your eyes open, donkey!’ —Seth Meyers
