The Illinois governor also celebrated Noem's ouster as head of Homeland Security with a fiery video message.
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker joined numerous Democrats on Thursday in celebrating the ousting of now-former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, addressing her directly in a fiery video message and trolling her with an updated social media bio.
Pritzker has been an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump and his hardline immigration agenda, which Noem has vigorously promoted as DHS head on social media over the past year.
This time, it was Pritzker doing the talking on social media.
He began with a damning reminder of Noem’s past, posting a modified social media profile for Noem on X with a fabricated bio that read: “DHS Secretary (Former) | Public Speaker | Unlicensed Dog Euthanizer.”
Noem infamously admitted in her 2024 book, “No Going Back,” to shooting and killing her 14-month-old dog, Cricket. She described the late canine in the book as “untrainable” and “less than worthless” after it ruined a hunting trip by attacking a neighbor’s chickens. She was memorably and mercilessly skewered for it on “South Park” last year.
