In hundreds of messages reviewed by the Daily Mail, the 56-year-old is allegedly shown messaging sex workers who specialize in “bimbofication,” or a type of roleplay fetish that involves being turned into a stereotypical bimbo or Barbie dolls in some cases.

“Ms. Noem is devastated,” a spokesperson for Kristi Noem told The New York Post. “The family was blindsided by this, and they ask for privacy and prayers at the time.”

    Liberals love having permission to make fun of people for stuff like this that they normally can’t get away with.

    “Haha, he’s a crossdresser! No of course I don’t have a problem with crosdressers, but HE does, so Im just saying it to get under his skin! What? This contributes to violence against gender variant people? Stop being so sensitive! It’s just a joke!”

      I don’t know, I think a big part of the ‘own’ is the hypocrisy of it. Every accusation an admission.

      I don’t know if liberals really are secretly waiting to dogpile someone for crossdressing.

        I admit that I haven’t followed the story that closely but what I have seen in mainstream reporting has been less “look at that hypocrite” and more “celebrity caught having yucky and ridiculous kink”.

        Im mentally lumping it with the Putin/Trump kissing stuff because ‘both Trump and Putin are homophobes’ ‘owns’ that libs gleefully and uncritically trot out. If the own was that he’s a hypocrite, they’d lead with that Person X accused of hypocrisy as photos of them doing Y emerge", not with the ‘scandalous’ kink
