By the way, in case anyone wonders where the “boob light” image came from, it started in this Facebook post almost exactly a decade ago (to the day):
Look, sex work and fetish play is clearly not your thing. And that’s OK. But maybe think before opining on things you know nothing about. It is most definitely not clear that he’s not enjoying himself.
His name is actually Bryon (a non-standard spelling of “Brian”), but I suspect that he’s been miscalled “Byron” throughout his life.
I think Tim Walz nailed it in 2024, these people really are weirdos.
I think it’s a reflection of how far we’ve fallen and how corrupt this administration is that no one has said a word about the national security implications of this pile of weirdo scandal….I mean, aren’t these people subjected to really extensive background checks?
So either the background checks are completely ineffectual, or the people doing the checks are saying that they found serious issues that could make them subject to blackmail….and that assessment is being overridden at a higher level.
I suspect the latter, and I’d like to see some reporting that looks into the ethical and national security aspects of the scandal.
Yep, people manifest all sorts of momentary facial expressions during sexytimes, or when striking poses that are supposed to inspire thoughts of sexytimes in their fellow participants.
You, @Beckdawrek, don’t happen to think that a “pouting” (as the Daily Mail described it) Bryon Noem wearing huge silicone gazongas looks pleased or alluring, and as it happens neither do I, but you and I are not Mr. Noem’s target audience here.
Pouting is seriously not what that face says. It looks like he looking down the barrel of a gun. Maybe it’s fear.
But ok. I bow to those who know better than me.
I feel sorry for him. Not enough to change my opinion of his evil wife.
(Oh and I wish his plastic boobie nipples were more even, that’s buggin’ me)
And when my son was in high school, he persuaded his entire anime club to all cross dress at school one day. He went to school wearing a hoop skirt and a tight feminine bodice. I had to give him a ride because he couldn’t manage his bicycle in that getup. So for all we know, the kids think Dad is cool for having the guts to crossdress online.
Oh @TroutMan I hadn’t realized you were the hall monitor and thought police. Sorry to offend.
Thanks for the advice. 
Imagine if Noem’s kids were all much older than high school age. Because they are.
Imagine if her kids worked on her campaign or got jobs because of her influence. Because they did.
Fuck em.
Generally speaking, I try not to judge the children of others based on their parents. But the Noem kids appear to be apples that didn’t fall too far from the tree. So I’m with you. Fuck ‘em.
I remember when I was in high school and several members of the football team showed up to school dressed as cheerleaders for the day. Most people thought it was funny, but I’m not quite sure we would have had the same reaction had we learned the quarterback’s dad liked to crossdress while talking to sex workers. But then maybe high school kids are a lot more tolerant than they were more than thirty years ago.
Well, when a boy grows into a man he puts away boyish things.
Oh wait…
To me he looks miserable in every photo I’ve seen of him. Maybe he just has RMF (resting miserable face).
Well, remember who he’s married to…
No-o-o thank you.
Look, it’s BRYON, not. BYRON, okay?
Easy mistake to make, but I can’t let it slide forever.
Yeah. Kenobi already corrected me. Thx
Perhaps they want people that they can blackmail. And never finished the thought (have they ever) that others can blackmail them too.
Trump is stupid (the list goes on) but I suspect he is being blackmailed as well.
I imagine it is levels - nominee gets fine tooth comb, then less scrutiny as you move out the relationship graph. Now “husband” would be looked at pretty closely, but assuming this isn’t something he started after Kristi got the new gig and boy toy, he presumably was taking some fairly strong precautions against being outed, so missable.
And even if the FBI has a standard question about cross-dressing wearing fake boobs, he may have lied.
This cracks me up more than it should.
I’m imagining an FBI questionnaire, with increasingly detailed questions about deviant weirdness. And nobody at the bureau imagining that somebody could just lie about it.
“How did we not see this? Johnson, did you forget to ask him the big boob cross dressing question?!”
“No, sir, I did. It’s right here in black and white: he circled ‘no’!”
“I’ve been saying for years that we need to make them pinky swear! Now we just look like idiots!”
Noem’s own extramarital affair should’ve been picked up on in a background check, considering it was the subject of reporting as early as 2023.
And while a standard spouse background check might not have caught “her husband likes to talk to busty gals online while dressed like a big-boobed Barbie doll”, they really shouldn’t have missed “her husband spends large sums of money in order to talk to busty gals online while dressed like a big-boobed Barbie doll.
Investigating unexplained cash outflows is pretty basic background checking,
