California Governor Gavin Newsom trolled once again DHS Secretary Kristi Noem – this time with the “Dog Obedience School” meme on social media.
On Thursday, the illustration showed a woman pointing a gun at a dog’s head It was shared by Newsom’s press office.
It was titled, “Kristi Noem’s dog obedience school: She’ll treat them as good as she treats brown ones.”
This was a sarcastic reference to Mim Noem’s 2024 memoir, no going backIn which the former governor of South Dakota admitted to shooting and killing her family dog Cricket two decades ago.
She wrote in her book that she considered the dog “untrainable” and “less than worthless” after it attacked a neighbor’s chickens.
X users criticized the cartoon, writing, “Making fun of animal cruelty is not funny,” to which Newsom’s press office responded: “Dude, he’s a self-confessed puppy-killer.”
Noem has repeatedly defended her actions, stating New York Post“I absolutely love animals, I’ve always had dogs, I still have a dog that goes everywhere with me, and the situation there was tough,” she said on the “Pod Force One” podcast in September.
The post comes as the governor’s press office has repeatedly trolled Trump administration officials for sending the National Guard to major cities like Los Angeles, Portland and Chicago, and dubbed Noem “cosplay Christie” for her frequent photo ops at ICE facilities.
