The cross dressing scandal surrounding Kristi Noem’s husband Bryon is beyond icky. It’s also highly concerning. Quite frankly, this raises huge national security concerns.

The details that have been reported are just gross. 

The husband of former Department of Homeland Security Secretary has been accused of having a hidden double life as a model for adult entertainers, with a string of messages sent online. Byron – who hails from South Dakota – has also been seen with his face showing in a series of photos where he is wearing what appears to be fake boobs squeezed under a skintight flesh toned t-shirt, with candy pink bike shorts on his lower half.

Beyond that is the fact that Bryon was very online with this cross dressing mess, and the women/people involved online absolutely KNEW he was Kristi Noem’s husband.

Bryon, who made his fortune in the insurance industry, allegedly sent women he met in the online fetish community some $25,000 via Cash app and PayPal as he admired their over-the-top bust sizes and “amazing” curves,” the DM reported.

He traded selfies with one woman he pledged to worship like a “goddess,” telling her, “you turn me into a girl,” before asking if he should “put on leggings.”

One of the models claimed she once butt-dialed “Jason” and heard a voicemail greeting saying “Noem Insurance, leave a message.”

When she Googled Noem Insurance, she found pictures of Bryon and his DHS secretary wife, according to the Daily Mail.

When she confronted him about it, he reportedly told her that “he didn’t care”

The national security implications behind this are extremely concerning. He was doing this the entire time she was serving at DHS Secretary. The ENTIRE TIME. 

This tells me two things. 

One: He’s been doing this for a very long time. And doesn’t give a damn that he could be open to national security issues such as…BLACKMAIL. 

The selfies Bryon sent are quite astounding.

As is the fact that he opened up his wife to the danger of potential blackmail by foreign powers, intelligence experts told us.

Two: The vetting process was either crap, or those in charge decided to just keep this swept under the rug. Or both.

As much as I absolutely loathe Laura Loomer, there is some plausibility to what she’s asserting. 

Kristi Noem said her family is blindsided by revelations her husband is a cross dresser and gay.

That isn’t true. She knew all about her husband which is why she lives with Corey Lewandowski in the DC area.

That’s why her husband never divorced her. It was their arrangement.… https://t.co/nTYSLZiA4Z

Is everything that Loomer stated true? I don’t know. Is some of what she asserts, plausible? Yes. Is Kristi Noem blindsided by all of this? 

Maybe she is. Then again, we’ve all known their marriage has been in trouble for a very long time. if Bryon Noem has had a weird fetish side life like this, it’s not something that came out of the blue. It’s been percolating for a long time. Perhaps longer than the last two years. 

That said, the national security implications of this are a gigantic problem. For a multitude of reasons. 

A. Foreign hackers: Once they caught wind of this, and it’s entirely plausible that they did… were they able to hack from Bryon’s phones and accounts into Kristi’s? 

B. Blackmail: Bryon Noem opened himself to blackmail and that could’ve been detrimental, hugely detrimental to our national security. 

C. Even the cross dressers and transgenders in the Biden Administration opened us up to major national security issues.

Was the knowledge of Noem’s extremely weird cross dressing fetish finally too much? Was that an underlying reason why she was fired from DHS? 

The problem is, she’s still in a position where her husband’s grotesque activities leave both of them open to blackmail. 

Former CIA officer Marc Polymeropoulos said, “If a media organization can find this out, you can assume with a high degree of confidence that a hostile intelligence service knows this as well.”

He added, “Damaging information like this can be a tantalizing lead for a hostile intelligence service. They approach the person and say, if you work with us, we won’t expose this, and if you don’t, we will. That’s espionage 101.”

A series of texts and WhatsApp messages allegedly show that Byron was repeatedly asked for money during the 14 months Kristi was at the helm of the nation’s largest federal law enforcement agency. He is alleged to have sent his secret online contacts at least $25,000 via Cash App and PayPal.

The national security implications with this are massive red flags. But let’s not forget something else. Bryon’s hideous fetish has jeopardized his own business. If I were a client, I’d be packing up and leaving… ASAP. 

The worst is that Bryon and Kristi Noem’s toxic relationship and the choices they’ve made have now negatively affected their children and grandchildren.

It’s incredibly sad when a marriage implodes. Even worse when the toxicity leads both into making massively bad public choices. 

The end result should be this. Kristi Noem has no political career left. She has to go. 

Bryon Noem’s life needs to be inspected to the nth degree to ensure that none of what he’s done the last couple of years has jeopardized our national security. If it has, he must be held accountable.
