Kristi Noem Suggests Joe Biden's Dog Commander Should Be Shot Too In Bonkers Interview

In an interview on 'Face The Nation', GOP Governor Kristi Noem seemed to double down on her shooting of Cricket by suggesting Joe Biden should put Commander down as well.

South Dakota GOP Governor and dog shooting advocate Kristi Noem suggested the Bidens should perhaps also put a bullet in their dog Commander.

Appearing on Face The Nation Sunday, host Margaret Brennan asked Noem about a reference in her upcoming memoir to Democratic President Joe Biden's German Shepherd.


"At the end of the book you say, the very first thing you would do if you got to the White House that was different from Biden, is you would make sure Biden's dog was nowhere on the grounds."
"'Commander say hello to Cricket'."

Brennan added:

"Are you doing this to try to look tough?"

Noem's motive for bragging about shooting a 14-month-old German Wirehaired Pointer puppy named Cricket is something many are questioning.

Rather than answer the question, Noem deflected.

"Joe Biden’s dog has attacked 24 Secret Service people. So how many people is enough people to be attacked and dangerously hurt before you make a decision on a dog and what to do with it?"

You can see the interaction here:

But instead of taking Commander to a gravel pit and shooting him like Noem prefers, the Bidens decided the dog wasn't suited for the stresses of White House life and relocated him until a permanent solution could be determined.

After Brennan pointed out Commander is no longer at the White House and tried to ask a follow-up question, Noem continued speaking over her with her tangent about Biden.

"That’s the question that the President should be held accountable to... That what’s the President should be accountable to."

While Brennan asked the logical question:

"You're saying he should be shot?"

Noem went on to point out how unpopular she's always been within her own party followed by dubious claims about her successful handling of COVID and the state of South Dakota.

Noem's latest attempt to spin her own narrative failed miserably in the eyes of social media where she was trounced on Reddit forums and X.

Noem was also asked about other excerpts from her upcoming book.

Which included bragging about meeting North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un and staring him down. Noem deflected again when asked by Brennan if the meeting ever occurred.

The GOP Governor has since admitted the story was a complete lie.


The Republican Vice Presidential hopeful claimed to be stunned the lie had made it into the book.

Brennan reminded her she not only had access to the print version prior to publishing, but also recorded the audio book where the same fake story about meeting Kim Jong Un also appeared.

Presumptive GOP 2024 presidential candidate Donald Trump hasn't yet announced his running mate. Noem can only hope he finds lying about her career and shooting puppies appealing.
