You know what? I feel sorry for the guy. So what he had a kink? His wife was sleeping with her advisor and shoots dogs can you honestly blame him? He is not hurting anyone

🐺The Wise Wolf's avatar

Ya know who else was into crossdressing?

John Wayne Gacy.

All cross dressers are not murdering rapists.

Dawn B's avatar

True David, but they all do socially unacceptable things, and when that isn't enough, they do more.

Do they stop at just cross dressing? In order to feel and feed the fetish, do they just stop at cross dressing?

A friend's husband wanted to watch porn, then he wanted to swing, then he wanted her to do more. Once something was allowed, it was never enough to feed his wants and took over and ruined their lives.

If you allow sin to control you, it will destroy you.

Hello? You must not have read the entire article. Can you say, potentially "a threat to National Security?!!!"

Michelle B's avatar

There’s no indication that Bryon Noem holds a security clearance or access to classified information. Without that, his private online activity doesn’t present a meaningful national security risk.

At most, the theoretical concern would be blackmail, but that generally only becomes relevant if someone has sensitive access or influence over classified matters—which doesn’t appear to be the case here.

but as I said Kirsti Noem was pretty incompetent so she didn’t need a cross dressing husband to muck things up she was too busy taking selfies on horses in costumes anyway. Hilda have a great day God bless America

Ziani's avatar

If he has any classified information you can bet he keeps it close to the vest/chest...

Will the real Barbie please stand up?

Michelle B's avatar

Hehehe. That’s an apt oxymoron lol

GardenGranny's avatar

Blackmail concerns like her husband’s engorged tatas is indeed a national security concern. And risk. I would have lost my low level security clearance. I think the president should investigate who in the fbi did her background check and discern if it was a deep state swamp critter interested in blackmail from within the USA.

Michelle B's avatar

Garden granny the president is so addled with dementia that you can't expect much of him sadly. I think Noem was a poor choice but there were other more glaringly obvious reasons that didn’t require background checks 🙄

Michelle B's avatar

Kristi norm did a good enough job with her incompetence achieving that x

Hilda Page's avatar

Michelle, you LEFT OUT at least two important details. Re Gates: Sexually transmitted disease that could have infected his wife; and Re: Noem: U.S. National Security Risk! Hello?

you can’t catch studs over the internet- he just interacted with sex workers online not in person. meanwhile ice barboe was having sex with her advisor. any studs she got were probs that way my friend

Good grief Charlie Brown. Did you attend American college the past 20 years? Seems so, for You just don’t get it. I’ll try one more time before I block you.

YES, What kink people do in the privacy of their homes is why we have a 4th amendment. (Though google and iPhones probably record the sounds and money transfers. ) This is more than that—because he potentially wired money SHE earned AND, EVEN IF IT WAS HIS OWN MONEY, the kink wasn’t with his WIFE, WHO HEADED NATIONAL SECURITY; his kink spread with others. That’s bringing in strangers. One could’ve been a Chinese spy, like Fang Fang and Eric Swalwell. People can AND DO GET BLACKMAILED for stuff like this. Blackmailing POTENTIAL IS a National Security Threat. Why? Because people go to extreme lengths to keep secret their perversions. Fear is a powerful motivator. PERIOD!

I am Australian. I graduated university in 2002 with a bachelor or medicine and bachelor of surgery- that’s a medical degree- I then gained my fellowship with the Royal Australasian college of Physicians in Nephrology and Internal Medicine in 2009- ie- specialty in kidneys and internal medicine that’s like- ie remember Dr house on the tv? Yeah him me the same. That’s how I became pretty good at reading and interpreting medical literature. That’s how I can tell propaganda from fact. But I have realised now that so many people just think they know more after watching a doco and stumbling across random papers on the internet but can’t tell me what a p value is to save themselves 🙄🫩

🐺The Wise Wolf's avatar

The point of the article is: a powerful person was married to a pervert who was doing weird, pervy things that could have caused a lot of issues for elections, national security, etc.

I guarantee if this sort of thing had come out during her election cycle when she was governor that it would have totally derailed her campaign. I also guarantee Mossad was well aware of what the guy was doing and she was kowtowing to their demands to keep it a secret. That is how intelligence agencies operate.

Your background is in medicine. Mine is in hacking, social engineering, manipulation, marketing, sales, spin doctoring, finance, etc.

It's a totally different world and you have your rose colored glasses on and cannot see that.

The only reason anyone is sticking up for her now is because they are Trump sycophants that don't realize they are part of a cult.

Michelle B's avatar

I'm not sticking up for her I think what she did was abhorrent. Minnesota- killing civilians? There's the reason for outrage. No I don't have rose coloured glasses the world is in deep trouble because of trump. The man with plastic boobs is not who deserves attention it's the toddler with dementia currently going war crimes and ruining the world who we need to be worried about

Tulips and Bees's avatar

You know it was only online how? That freak shit is a slippery slope.

🐺The Wise Wolf's avatar

Don't even bother talking to this woman. My guess is she gets paid to sit online all damn day saying these things. These billionaire perverts employee thousands of people to do damage control online. Hell,. that woman might even be an AI for all we know.

There is no way that he 'just interacted with sex workers online not in person'. How the hell would she even know that? I actually worked for billionaires. I actually was SUED BY BILL GATES FOR 33 FUCKING MILLION DOLLARS IN MY TWENTIES (true story) - I know how these people are. They are sick, twisted perverts that spend their lives seeking pleasure and what they find pleasurable - people like us would vomit from.

I know better than to do so. Just like those making excuses for Erika Kirk. They attack those pointing out oddities at a minimum and verified facts. I don't get it. On a separate but equally as fucked up note. ..Just saw Trump is having himself added to Mnt. Rushmore. What a shit show...and I voted for this fraud 3 times.

Michelle B's avatar

look listen every one just calm down. all I am saying is the guy has a kink leave him alone. He's not hurting anyone, he's not hurting you or me. What he does in private is his business. There are really no slippery slopes. There is no evidence that kinks like this lead to becoming sex offenders or paedophiles. He likes to put rubber tits on and talk to women with big tits. who cares. this stuff goes on everywjhere behind closed doors. I don't understand it you don't either but there is no reason to shame the guy.

Michelle B's avatar

thats what was reported in the all the news articles. Anything more is pure unfounded speculation.

Michelle B's avatar

Hang on when did we go from a dude who has a kink he kept secret to talking about kids? I don't get that leap?

GardenGranny's avatar

Without the leap to kids….the threat, “just” boobie stuff with outsiders, IS the act for which blackmail becomes possible. Dios mio!

Dawn B's avatar

IMHO...The leap... Some just stay as cross dressers the rest of their lives, but are most of them satisfied with just that?

Pedos start somewhere acting out fantasies and eventually it isn't enough so they continue in sexual deviance.

Murders start somewhere like torturing little animals when they are young, then killing the animals, then move on because that isn't enough.

It is a big red flag and should we just ignore it and think that is all? He wouldn't hurt a fly until he does...

Michelle B's avatar

Show me solid peer reviewed evidence of that. It's just not true. If you could only see this the world would not be so scary to you and you wouldn't have the burden of carrying around so much hate. There are so many people with different kinks that are harmless people. To think all roads lead to paedo-ville is a gross misunderstanding of human sexuality it really truly is.

Dawn B's avatar

What made you think I hate anyone? Don't gaslight me.

Cross dressing is a likely a sign of childhood trauma and or abuse. It is deviant and destructive behavior. How is his marriage and life? Not good is it?

If they keep it in the bedroom I guess but they don't do they? It wasn't enough for this guy either so he interacted with others online and that's what little we know.

You believe peer reviewed literature is solid science and not manipulated?

Michelle B's avatar

Claiming that cross-dressing is caused by childhood trauma, or that it ‘leads to paedophilia,’ is not supported by mainstream clinical evidence. Cross-dressing by itself is not automatically a mental disorder, not automatically abuse-related, and not automatically harmful. Clinical sources distinguish between ordinary cross-dressing and transvestic disorder, which is only diagnosed when there is significant distress or impairment. They also define pedophilic disorder separately, as a sexual interest in prepubescent children. Those are different categories, and treating them as if they are the same is simply false.

It is also misleading to point to trauma and pretend that proves deviance. Research does show that gender-nonconforming and trans people report higher rates of childhood abuse and adversity, but that literature does not prove trauma causes cross-dressing or gender variance. In fact, several sources note that these groups are often targets of abuse and stigma, and that cross-sectional studies cannot establish causation. Major professional guidance is explicit that cross-dressing or gender variance is not inherently pathological or criminal behavior. So linking it to child abuse risk without evidence is stigma, not science.

And on the ‘peer-reviewed literature is manipulated’ line: skepticism is fine, but blanket dismissal is not an argument. If someone thinks a specific paper is flawed, they should identify the flaw in the methods, sample, definitions, or analysis. Just saying ‘science is manipulated’ while making a much bigger unsupported claim of their own is not rebuttal, it is evasion

Dawn B's avatar

Never wrote it lead to pedo. They can mainstream it and normalize it all they want but it is unnatural.

I implied it can lead to darker things because it becomes not enough. It is a mental disorder or at least was until 2022 and mental disorders lead to lots of problems.

It is harmful because it destroys marriages and affects their children.

In my personal experience people addicted to sexual deviancy are never satisfied and have to keep raising the bar for satisfaction.

They are slaves to their sin.

LadyTrilo's avatar

I agree who cares about his secrets. Other than his wife had a very high level political position. I just find it extremely ironic and hypocritical for any “republican” to be involved with this when the entire party has been going after every gender issue.

The democrats push for and encourage this with kids and adults while the republicans now have a spouse of one of their own who is part of the cross dressing transgender crowd.

Unbelievable is all I can say.

Doneen Mills's avatar

Yeah I’m not sure calling him a pervert is helpful. Keep the vitriol where it belongs. On his POS wife.

Neither are the transgender kids and adults being demonized by these same people. The ubiquitous pedophilia of tRUMPworld and the adjacent milieu actually DO hurt MILLIONS of people, and the right wing cheers for this behavior.

YOU'RE the sicko here. You savagely attack a tiny group of people by blatting about “trannyfying kids” while looking the other way when your orange god and a whole other network of pedophiles is running amok with ZERO consequences. I hope your kids are safe.

The Kurgan's avatar

You’re delusional. I’m not American, I don’t give a shit about your orange boogie man, and your entire government is a bunch of pedovores along with fags and trannies too. You ALL deserve to burn.

Michelle B's avatar

hey guys wow such anger. please. Fundamentally you both agree that pardons and rapists need to be brought to justice. Can I just be the voice of reason here and say there is no evidence what so ever linking trans people to paedophilia, nor is there evidence linking trans people to becoming sex offenders. More often trans people are the victims. The vilification of trans people is a political divisive move to try to cancel a minority. Trans people pose no threat to society. Let's just try to not be cruel and find empathy for all human beings. If people feel threatened by movements that oppose our own identities that can make people feel threatened but the answer is not to try to make that minority disappear. They exist and they suffer they have hearts and emotions just like you and me. there is space for us all in this world. please, be kind

Oh, I have tales to tell. My first husband was a cross dresser. I didn’t figure it out until after we were married. I mean, some of my underwear was weirdly stretched out for a while, but that stopped after I said something out loud.

I finally caught on when I got a Lane Bryant bill in the mail and I thought he had a pudgy girlfriend at first. I angrily planned to confront him a couple of days later. I was pregnant with child #2 at the time, and trying to figure out who he was seeing, not who he was being.

Turns out, he was picked up by the police in the wee hours of the morning, speeding while dressed as a woman. (this was1996.) He was a big guy with a full beard and the sight of him when I picked him up from the county made me laugh until I peed myself.

I sought the advice of my therapist, who said it was a harmless fetish. It’s just clothing, right? He liked the feel of sexy things.

If that’s all it had been, I might have adapted, but things went so sideways after the trust was broken.

So, in my expert opinion, there is no freaking way Kristi Noem was unaware of her husband’s proclivities. To make the whole marriage work, she was probably participating in them. Look at the way she played dressup. Who helped put together those outfits? And the whole thing was probably an angry dig at the husband who made her keep his secret. She was constantly taunting him with all the transformation he wanted to affect in his own body.

Gosh I love you, Wise Wolf. Great article, and laugh out loud rhetoric! You could do stand-up, I am sure. Too bad I'm too old for you; we would would literally die laughing, at our own jokes! (How else does one get through all the madness we've experienced?)

Gina's avatar

Once I stop laughing my ass off and wipe the tears out of my eyes, I’ll get down to business and read your article which I’m assuming will be humorous. Your headline says it all!🤣😂

🐺The Wise Wolf's avatar

glad SOMEONE finally got it!

Gina's avatar

Well I’m finished reading and I’m laughing even harder which in a way isn’t good. This is dysfunction at its worst. Kristi was in charge of a branch of government that should’ve vetted her and her husband Bryon, who by the way he spells his name says it all, before ever giving her the job she was incredibly unqualified for. Everything about her reminded me of my paper dolls when I was little. So many outfits to choose from for a flimsy one dimensional piece of pulp. However the other side of this story are the liberals and the mockingbird news with their righteous indignation about all of this. Of course they all have short term memory and have completely forgotten how the previous administration championed ALL the Freak Show Bob’s some of which held positions in said administration. Rachel Levine, the poster child, who should’ve thought about buying a Raquel Welch wig to look a bit more convincing. They tried so hard to normalized it and now they’re going to rebel against it because it’s not their guy in office embracing it? I don’t know what’s worse. Bread and circus man, that’s all I can say, bread and circuses!

Yeeah Canadian here sorry about that, our Woke intelligence people-kind have been very busy scrubbing the internet of any disparaging images of Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney, whose sister-in-law is a close friend of Ghislaine Maxwell. Of course the real reason Justin Trudeau left his teaching Gig, blackface boy with the banana shoved down his drawers, Mr Dressup had more Costume changes than Christi Noam for sure! The Kokanee groiper, Groping his way around the globe like a dog in heat. 💩’n on lawns and hump’n legs. Our own politicians keep the Liberal lack of Central Intelligence Agency extremely busy…Moistly speaking between friends they have their work cut out for them just in NOT exposing all the corruption, graft and grift up here!

JC's avatar

Yeah there is zero probability Canada's intelligence service (do we have one?) would notice. All security energy is spent NOT noticing as hard as possible. It's a difficult job, not noticing, but they will apologize if they accidentally notice something for a few minutes and the CBC can't obscure it fast enough.

Dan's avatar

Even funnier is the Liberals funding programs within the Canadian military on how to propagandize the Canadian public more efficiently?

Mark Braun's avatar

Well, I too, felt like Christie Noem was fake and far too concerned with her image rather than doing her job. This latest revelation is shocking and disgusting for sure, and absolutely a national security risk. The fake bimbo breasts and $25k payments make Bill Clinton's blue dress at Epstein's condo seem far less perverse. I do disagree with one statement, though:

"Every speech, every policy, every Fox News appearance was built on the idea that people who blur gender lines are a threat to your children and your country."

People who blur gender lines ARE ultimately a threat to our children and country. I don't want any "woman" with a swinging dick, traumatizing any young girl in her locker room, or transgender male athletes permanently injuring and paralyzing female athletes and robbing them of their lifelong pursuit of athletic achievements. God was very clear about gender in Genesis, "...male and female He created them "(Gen. 1:27). There are only 2 genders. Anything else added is based on a delusion, lies and collusion with the Enemy...

Carol O'Neill's avatar

People who think “blurring the gender lines” is worse than the rape and murder of tens of thousands of kids are too useless and evil to be allowed to live.

Yeah, I think he’s a weirdo because men behaving that way is certainly not my cup of tea…but his response was perfect. Blackmail doesn’t work when you’re not ashamed of who you are. That’s the whole point: shame as a tool of control, perpetuated by narratives like religion. When you own who you are and aren’t afraid who knows the real you, that’s TRUE, God-given power. I think of someone like Bill Gates being afraid to tell his wife he slept with some European escorts. Weak. Who cares? Grow up and be who you want to be and stop “pretending” to adhere to a moral/behavioral code that you never consented to. Maybe you don’t want to be monogamous, Bill! Big deal. Honesty and truth-telling are I hope what become the marker of leaders moving forward. And if a few of them have kinks that I happen to find incredibly weird and unattractive, who cares? Different strokes. Conscious consent among adults is key, and honesty will do more to liberate us than the continued pretension. Humans are freaks, let’s embrace it! Or, we can keep pretending that Puritanism and secrecy AREN’T exactly what allowed an Epstein Island to exist and have the pull it did (more on that if you read my stuff 😏). Also, she probably knew and definitely should have been honest, too… I’d have much more respect for that. I used to dream of running for office and then accumulated too many skeletons in my closet. Now, I can’t wait to share them. Everyone needs to know that our virtue is found in something other than the superficial: integrity, authenticity, and genuine care for life over obedience to control frameworks, no matter how utilitarian they may be. What’s good for the gander isn’t always good for the goose, and that’s okay… but can we all agree that what’s left to fester in the dark will attract evil? And that the solution is Truth?

Rog IndaUP's avatar

And all of this surprises... ? Exactly. NO ONE.

We're living in DJT's Bizarro-World, after all -- any way you cut it.

Of course it may help explain the rationale for Barbie's most recent career change; aside from the fact she was completely incompetent at DHS. Think about it: if the Daily Mail could catch wind of her husband's perversions before completely obliterating her personal & professional life, there's a pretty good chance the Ken Doll's penchant for balloons became known to her Boss -- Don't you think?

In any event, you can't make this stuff up; (pardon the cliche`) the comedy & tragedy of it all is just too poignant. And obviously God - in His Infinite Mercy, Wisdom, & Grace - has seen fit to allow us to live in these times of confusion & turmoil; as witnesses to His Purposes, Truth, & Protection. May we daily press more fully into Jesus & His righteousness -- as we see the Day approaching when He come to separate the wheat from the tares!

Carol O'Neill's avatar

The cross-dressing was never the problem. It was the egregious, festering, loathsome HYPOCRISY.

Michelle McKool's avatar

If this is so huge, how do the people who “vet” her miss it? So her husband is into freak, kink enough to make her blackmail-able, and she is having a well-known affair, but the administration just decided to hire her because she’s cute? Was somebody blackmailed to hire her so they would have someone they could blackmail in all the positions? Is anybody in this administration not being a puppet for someone?

We have prosecutors who won’t prosecute, FBI who won’t arrest people and stop investigations, we have judges that let out pedophile murders, Congress people who won’t debate or vote, …what is a better “conspiracy theory” other than hidden people seem to be destroying our country through proxies?
