JD Vance says only truly terrible people commit this horrible act and Kristi Noem has done it

Wow — J.D. Vance inadvertently compared Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem to Jeffrey Dahmer and Freddie Kruger.

On Wednesday, the vice president said on a podcast that only a “really terrible person” would mistreat a dog, but he conveniently forgot that his Cabinet colleague Noem he boasted about executing a puppy in his memoirs last year.

The topic came up during Vance’s appearance on the New York Post podcast “Pod Force One with Miranda Devine.” Devine was complimenting Vance on the good behavior of his German shepherd, Atlas, when he entered his home in Washington, D.C., for the interview. He then immediately compared Atlas to former President Joe Biden’s dog, Commander, who had a reputation for being quite agile with Secret Service personnel.

After the two used comparisons between the two dogs to criticize Biden, Devine mentioned another person on the left she felt inclined to vilify: Twitch Streamer. Hasan Piker.

The left-wing influencer sparked controversy earlier this month when a video went viral of Piker possibly wearing a shock collar about his dog when he stood up during a live broadcast. Mean denied it was a shock collarsaying it was “a vibrating collar to reinforce your training.”

“I think it tells you that they are bad people,” he responded. “If you can really cause suffering to an innocent animal, you’re probably the kind of person who doesn’t care about the suffering of people too, and that’s been my experience. If you mistreat dogs, that’s almost a 100% sign that you’re going to be a really terrible person.”

“You know, it’s like the Jeffrey Dahmer thing. Like all the serial killers were really bad to animals, that’s how they started,” Vance continued. “I remember the Freddy Krueger movies when I was a kid… Well, how did Freddy Krueger appear? [get] its beginning? “One of the things they show is young Freddy Krueger torturing animals.”

He concluded: “If you’re not taking care of God’s creatures, then I certainly think you’re going to be a pretty bad person in other ways too.”

When Devine asked Vance how Atlas behaved when President Donald Trump came to his house, Vance said he keeps Atlas upstairs, presumably because dogs can smell bad.

But by Vance’s logic, this makes Noem a pretty bad girl.

Last year, when Noem was governor of South Dakota, she published a memoir in which went into detail about the death of Cricket, her 14-month-old wirehaired pointer puppy. because she was “less than useless” as a hunting dog. Noem tried several times to train her puppy and even used a shock collar, but she got fed up after Cricket killed a local family’s chickens.

Then, he shot Cricket in a gravel pit.

“It was not a pleasant job,” he wrote. “But it had to be done.”
