Well, now we know why Kristi Noem’s husband was OK with her publicly gallivanting around with her boyfriend - turns out he’s a closet crossdresser who’s been paying tens of thousands of dollars to “bimbofication” models online and chatting about how he’d love to have large breasts. (Yes, the Daily Mail is the source, but there are pictures and receipts and neither Noem is denying the story.) > **[Secret double life of Kristi Noem's crossdressing husband Bryon](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15685877/kristi-noem-husband-bryon-crossdressing-pictures-south-dakota.html#)** > > While his wife has operated at the highest echelons of US politics, Bryon Noem, 56, has been dressing up as a busty bimbo and paying adult entertainers to talk dirty. > **[Exclusive | Kristi Noem weighs in on report husband lives cross-dressing...](https://nypost.com/2026/03/31/us-news/kristi-noem-weighs-in-on-report-husband-bryon-lives-cross-dressing-double-life/)** > > Kristi Noem is “devastated” by salacious allegations her husband Bryon lives a double life in which he dabbled in cross-dressing and chatted online with fetish models. ---

A federal judge has blocked Trump’s ballroom from being built.

> [@ThelmaLou](#): > > How many think he will obey the judge? > > Not me. Of COURSE he will not obey the judge. People have been commenting on his Ballroom plans containing ‘stairways to nowhere’ as though it’s a big joke that he (and his architect) are so incompetent. But of course those stairways will very much go “somewhere” when the White House is gone and the glorious new Tower is built next to the Ballroom. Whether Donald will just boldly demolish the White House himself, or whether he will “Reichstag Fire” it (which could be more convenient politically) remains to be seen. But those stairways are planned to go somewhere. And no judge is going to stop it. ---

The ballroom will never be completed. Trump fails everything he tries to do. That’s his trademark. It will be a smoking hole in the ground. A representation of his entire presidency. ---

It won’t even be noticed next to the smoking pile of rubble that was the White House-- after he bulldozes it. ---

If, by some miracle unseen since Moses parted the Red Sea, I became president, my first act would be to bulldoze trump’s ballroom, no matter how far it had progressed. Then I’d ship the debris to Mara Lardo. And bill them. ---

Bad translations make me angry. I only understand two of the languages displayed, Spanish and German. Both are wrong. German more wrong than Spanish. And yes, the whole story is a clusterfuck, of course. All things related to President Ineptstein are. Do not wear that shirt. ---

Yeah, that also blew my mind. Can’t wait for him to continue adding his name to anything named after a Democrat, all in the name of bipartisan showing of unity. 🤮 Coming soon: The Donald J. Trump - Barack HUSSEIN Obama Presidential Library ---

Obama doesn’t have a presidential library, for that very reason. He built the Obama Presidential Center to avoid federal operation as a Presidential library. ---

LOL…I did not know that! I was just going for the most outlandish thing I could think of, but with Trump, still in the realm of possibility. Thank you, because I still strive to learn something new every day and I’ve done so. ---

The stairs don’t go anywhere because it’s an AI rendering designed to placate a senile old man with bad taste. I doubt this project has anything resembling a feasible design draft that’s been gone over by an actual architect, let alone blueprints ready to begin construction on. I really don’t see how anyone can still believe Trump has some Secret Master Plan and he’s just biding his time until all the pieces fall into place. ---
