'So hot': Fox host argues Kristi Noem 'shooting a dog isn’t a deal breaker' due to her looks

18 January

According to a Fox News primetime host, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary-designate Kristi Noem is too good-looking for shooting her puppy to death to matter.

The Independent recently reported that Fox host Greg Gutfeld said that the United States was better off with Noem at the helm of DHS compared to outgoing Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas due to her physical appearance. And he notably argued that Noem's looks overshadowed her admission of shooting her family dog, Cricket, in a gravel pit.

"You’re going from a garden gnome to Kristi Noem,” Gutfeld said during an appearance on Fox News' The Five. “I mean, she’s so hot that shooting a dog isn’t a deal breaker.”

The Fox host went on to make the case that conservatives were better-looking than liberals, and as a result would be better fit to run the country.

"And I’m telling you, you look at this crop of nominees and the party, there’s something there, man. They’re all in great shape. You’ve got to look at people who preserve and maintain what’s important in their lives," Gutfeld continued. "If they’re going to do that with their physical self, they’re going to do that in other areas. This is why, like, a lot of liberals are just fat, out of shape losers because they don’t believe in structure or discipline."

While looks are subjective, Noem's record of handling natural disasters in her home state of South Dakota has given even her own constituents pause. In June of 2024, CNN reported that severe flooding in the Mount Rushmore State "delayed requesting federal disaster assistance." She also had a shortage of National Guard troops to help her state recover from the floods, as many of them had been dispatched to the Southern border at President-elect Donald Trump's request.

"I have zero faith that Gov. Noem is going to be instrumental in helping after a natural disaster. They better make a plan for themselves. It was everyone for yourself when it came down to our disaster," South Dakota-based environmental activist Renae Hansen told CNN. "Our city failed us, our county failed us, and our state failed us."
