Some folks try so hard to look so bad. She isn't the first nor the last.


I guess she doesn't always make the right call when faced with those difficult decisions. The pic on the left that of an attractive woman. The pic on the right, while she is still attractive, looks like a plastic Barbie doll.
Agree, the pic on the right looks bad. Did some digging around, the second pic is somewhat miss leading. But looks like she has had some work.


She's catching heat for doing an infomercial for a dentist in Texas.

Speaking of catching heat, I noticed that a lot on the right are calling her out for the dog killing. Including some far right and popular folks.


Yep, one of the few things the left and right agree on. Don't f with innocent dogs. Her stance on abortion was already problematic, she just dug her own grave with that idiotic story. Again, I'd fire her publicist for allowing that in her book. Of course she is on her victim tour now and it isn't off to a good start.
Even though the dog story was probably not as bad as the media is making it out to be, she has definitely created a stained look for herself. I hate that because I really liked her, at one point. She started to lose support, by me, when she handled the men, in women's sports, thing very sloppily…


Not as bad as the media made it out to be? They simply used the quote from the book. How did they make it worse?
They created a narrative that she now has to respond to…. A more trustworthy way is for them to ask questions as opposed to creating the story. News networks do more story telling than reporting.

Now, I don't, think this story is a good one for her, at all…. That said, only she knows the truth of why.


I'm not trying to argue here but that was dumb to have that in a book. There are some far right people who are even going after her. Gotta be smarter than that if you are her.
Unfortunately, in today's society, you need to hide who you are. We should be thanking her for the transparency. Then, we should just ask questions to understand the thinking, of her decision. No, we condemn first, then try and ask questions.

Understand, I think most media does the same thing. It's why I don't watch FoxNews any longer. They do the same thing, just in a way, that I typically align with.


And with that said, she needs to be aware of that. That's how you win unfortunately. People love dogs, they don't care about the whys…. They just know that she shot a pup.
I agree

Somebody please enlighten me about this one being an issue…. Did she get paid and didn't disclose the arrangement?

It's right there in the linked article.
I read the article.. it's a flawed article with some of the innuendos. Again, I say… please enlighten me about this one being a; issue…


Then you would have read this part.

The lawsuit alleges that Noem, in sharing the Smile Texas plug to her personal social accounts without any sort of label, "advertised a product or service without disclosing that she has a financial relationship with that company." It also accuses the governor of violating a Federal Trade Commission requirement that social posts disclose whether they are advertisements or not with a marker that says, "Ad."

Did she make money on this? I think this needs to play out. Everything is alleged. If she did wrong, well… then she needs to own up to it. Right now, she's innocent until proven guilty, right?

The FTC has ruled that it violates federal law for a business to fail to disclose when it has a "material relationship" with someone endorsing that business' goods or services. The FTC can level fines of up to roughly $51,000 for each instance a business fails to meet the standards.

This makes it sound like Smile Texas could be on the hook and not Noem.

I guess you could say getting a good look isn't a good look.

She acknowledged that she did. Her teeth (or veneers). She apparently had an accident that caused her to have issues with her teeth. Pretty clear she is on a mid life crisis of trying to look 20 again. Sadly, she just went from an attractive woman that's aging like we all do to a plastic Barbie clown with barely a wrinkle visible when she tries to create a facial expression.

I didn't see that she acknowledged that…. That said, the dog story has made its way into conservative media and everyone (well most) is saying that she's done.

Also, I agree about her looks… I used to think she was extremely attractive; however, she definitely looks like a housewives of Orange County chick…

In the things I didn't know category:
One out of every 42 babies born in the United States in 2021 was conceived using IVF or other assisted reproductive technologies. I was not aware the numbers were that high

Parents who started treatments in 2021 gave birth to 97,128 babies, a 49% increase from 2012. In 2021, 238,126 patients initiated 413,776 IVF or similar treatment cycles, up 135% from 2012.

The top specified reasons for pursuing assisted reproductive technologies include freezing eggs or embryos, male infertility factors, and diminished egg production.

Reasons for pursuing assisted reproductive technologies by the percentage of overall cases included, 2021
A bar chart showing the reasons for pursuing in vitro fertilization by the percentage of overall cases included in 2021. The top specified reasons for pursuing IVF include freezing eggs or embryos, male infertility factors, and diminished egg production.
Egg or embryo banking 40.9%
Other factor 30.0%
Male factor 27.8%
Diminished ovarian reserve 26.9%
Preimplantation genetic testing 16.6%
Ovulatory dysfunction 14.3%
Unexplained factor 10.5%
Tubal factor 10.4%
Endometriosis 6.5%
Recurrent pregnancy loss 6.3%
Uterine factor 5.8%
Gestational carrier 1.4%

Seems like a big deal and state legislatures need to look at the numbers and take these into account when deciding reproductive laws.

So as happens often a random thought just crossed my mind. Those were some really nice tents that the student agitators abandoned at Columbia, and presumably other universities. I wonder if the city threw them away or confiscated them to pass out to the homeless who are sleeping on the streets. It'd be a shame to see perfectly good tents, and from the looks of some of them expensive tents, to go into the landfills. Anybody seen any reports on what the disposition of the tents were.

No. They are called "Pretend" Independents (or "pretendependents") for short...

Chris Cuomo has "glowing micro clots" in his blood after taking the vaccine and helping the establishment to peer pressure sheep into following suit and is now taking Ivermectin after calling it horse dewormer. How the tables have turned.
We may have lost our jobs, some friends, and been publicly shamed but the conspiracy theorists do not have long covid, blood clots, or turbo cancer in 2024.

The world should take notes.

The free thinkers defeated the Covid psyop and came out the other side vindicated.

The Cabal controls nearly all information across the globe and even our encyclopedias; see below.

The matrix of lies and deception perpetuated on society over centuries is extensive. We will be learning over the coming months and years the truth and it will be somewhat destabilizing. Our fake reality will contrast greatly with the real truth. It's that massive.

So some were wondering why I avoid convos with a certain poster. To answer that I refer you to the fable of Donkeys and Tigers

Fable: DON'T ARGUE WITH DONKEYS
The donkey said to the tiger:
- "The grass is blue".
The tiger replied:
- "No, the grass is green."
The discussion heated up, and the two decided to submit him to arbitration, and for this they went before the lion, the King of the Jungle.
Already before reaching the forest clearing, where the lion was sitting on his throne, the donkey began to shout:
- "His Highness, is it true that the grass is blue?".
The lion replied:
- "True, the grass is blue."
The donkey hurried and continued:
- "The tiger disagrees with me and contradicts and annoys me, please punish him."
The king then declared:
- "The tiger will be punished with 5 years of silence."
The donkey jumped cheerfully and went on his way, content and repeating:
- "The Grass Is Blue"...
The tiger accepted his punishment, but before he asked the lion:
- "Your Majesty, why have you punished me?, after all, the grass is green."
The lion replied:
- "In fact, the grass is green."
The tiger asked:
- "So why are you punishing me?".
The lion replied:
- "That has nothing to do with the question of whether the grass is blue or green.
The punishment is because it is not possible for a brave and intelligent creature like you to waste time arguing with a donkey, and on top of that come and bother me with that question."
The worst waste of time is arguing with the fool and fanatic who does not care about truth or reality, but only the victory of his beliefs and illusions. Never waste time on arguments that don't make sense...
There are people who, no matter how much evidence and evidence we present to them, are not in the capacity to understand, and others are blinded by ego, hatred and resentment, and all they want is to be right even if they are not.
When ignorance screams, intelligence is silent. Your peace and quietness are worth more.
