I thought this was an April Fools joke. Need a subscription to read the story so if anyone has one for the DM, pass on more details.

1. I figured from the beginning he was more than aware of Corey

as in at least present. You know a Falwell Jr type thing.

2. The whole family likes dressing up.

Interesting.

3. Here is another link...NYPost

If this is real then I bet Noem and her lover got this info out there.

4. Or Mediaite, if you want a non-RW tabloid link

I'm amazed that no one in the FBI got this in the media while she was at DHS. Anyone with a grudge against her (and lord knows there are plenty of reasons for that) could have completely distracted her. And Trump would blame her, too.

5. Isn't the Daily Mail right-wing tabloid crap?

That photo looks fake. Why are the nipples where they don't belong? I won't be giving that scuzzy rag the click to read the article. I see the NY comPost and Mediaite tabloids are also reporting it. This feels like a smear campaign against Noem's husband, and is also feeding to the right's transphobia. Trying to demonize the husband to distract from their gal's wrong-doing?

7. I think the "nipples" are where the balloons are tied

I agree. I have no interest in his kink. People have no control over what turns them on. I had a boyfriend that had a foot fetish. I didn't shame him about it, but I wasn't into it either.

That being said, I wonder if this was leaked by someone on Kristi's team to give her leverage in a divorce. She's definitely the primary breadwinner in the family.

8. Yeah, this strikes me as a leak by Noem's team, as well.

I doubt she was oblivious to his activities, that being said. And, I'm right there with you on his "kink." It's not hurting anyone, and doesn't involve unwilling people or animals, so who gives a shit?

9. Quite so--- but it is another stark rebuttal to the GQP talking point that 'Democrats are perverts'!

Along with the fact that the list of Maga/Republican rapists and pedophiles
seems to be much longer than any such list of Democrats.....!


I think THAT is rather the point of this news story--

not that Noem's husband was doing anything 'wrong'---
except in the eyes of the right-wing extremists--- many of whom
actually ARE actively committing sexual crimes against women and minors!

6. That's his business

If he wants to wear badly-placed nipples, he’s welcome to it. It’s not like he’s molesting children or shooting puppies.

I do kind of wonder if Kristi leaked this ahead of the divorce.
