A May 4th Colorado GOP fundraiser, where Gov. Kristi Noem, R-S.D., was supposed to speak, was canceled due to threats sparked by her admission of killing her 14-month-old dog, Cricket.

Nancy Pallozzi, Jefferson County Republican Party Chair, said in a statement posted on social media that the group had initially thought the timing for the fundraiser was perfect, since the South Dakota governors book, "No Going Back," comes out soon. But attitudes have changed towards Noem, as examples of her cruelty towards animals continue to make headlines.

Numerous threats and/or death threats have been made to the county organization, the Denver West Marriott where the fundraiser was being hosted, and to Noem herself, according to Pallozzi.

After a conversation with the Governors office late Wednesday, we mutually decided that safety was the most important concern for everyone involved, Pallozzi wrote.

Despite the threats to the Marriott, which received alarming comments worth deep concern over the safety and security for those attending our event, other guests, and their staff, Pallozi confirmed that the local GOP is not taking a position on the public outcry on the governors book.

However, she did add that the fundraiser had an adverse effect. We lost money in this, Pallozzi told NBC News. This was meant to be a fundraiser, but now weve lost thousands of dollars.

The consequences of what Noem describes in her book which also details her murdering a mean and "smelly" goat have impacted her political aspirations, no doubt.

After reports of her shooting her wirehaired pointer, whom she hated because the puppy didnt take to her initial hunting training, the anecdote seems to have severely hurt her chances of being Trumps running mate, as even he is giving her stink-eye over it.

When Noem spoke at a Trump donor retreat at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday, she seemed less than apologetic about her actions, and far more concerned with how it would be yet another exercise to show her political contemporaries that she has what it takes to make it.

"Theyre just attacking me like crazy right now, she said. "But listen, thats a good thing. Its a good thing because it makes you stronger, and it teaches you, really, what youre up against. And it makes you recognize how much they lie. How much they will twist. How much they will manipulate. And you just have to be strong and be happy warriors.

It seems as though Noem has even doubled down on her animal killing spree, and hints in her book that shell kill Bidens dog, if an opportunity presents itself wherein she feels such an action would be necessary.

In an interview with CBS, the interviewer confirms this: At the end of the book, you say the very first thing you would do if you got to the White House, that was different from Biden, is you would make sure Biden's dog was nowhere on the grounds. 'Commander say hello to Cricket.' Are you trying to look tough?

When asked if she still thinks she has a shot at being vice president, Noem, who has suddenly decided she is the equivalent to animal control, said, Well, number one, Joe Bidens dog has attacked 24 Secret Service people. Staying on-brand, she ended with compliments to herself and her state of South Dakota being happy and doing well.

Good. Good.

I work in law. My family has worked in law before and they share the same sentiment that I have, which would explain my opinion.

There is no crime I find more disgusting and unforgivable than animal cruelty. I have no idea who this woman is since I'm just hearing her name now, but assuming it's true, she's dead to me.

What she did to that dog was unforgiveable, what she did to the goat was psychotic.

looks like the GOP can't keep their dogs on a leash.

lmao

how fucking dumb can you be to think killing dogs is a good thing as a republican

should have said she shot a gay person or something

I wonder how much shit she gets for her name

Fuck this fucking bitch. Ain't no one lying. She wrote it in her goddamn book and is now trying to gaslight her base into thinking it's the left's fault for her getting attacked.

Fuck this fucking bitch!

That's one hell of a name, talk about unlucky

I always see right wing nut jobs on Facebook going into those videos about animals doing cute stuff and being like this is animal abuse. I bet those fucker still vote for her

The funny thing is that Im at the point where I honestly think that she didnt kill her dog, but for whatever reason was dumb enough to think that claiming that she did would make her look tough. Either way, Im fine with that moron sinking because of this, fact or fiction.

Even hardcore Trumpers love their dogs. How dumb do you have to be to not get that? Even sociopaths know to hide their cruelty.

True justice would be this costing her the governorship next election (if she can/will run again)

LMAO, the most unfortunate possible name for a Republican official, other than the mythical Irish guy named Obama.

Anyway, as a woke liberal antifa member, I would be soooo owned if Trump picked her as VP. I'd definitely have to retreat to my college safe space to protest.

Oh gods, if someone pops up that has proof she actually surrendered the dog to them and she's simply lying about being a psycho. Lol

Being attacked because you kill puppies is actually a good thing.

How can we conclude this book in a way that nicely brings it all together? I got it! We'll circle back on dog murder.

The media is blowing the story I provided them ahead of time that I chose to disclose in the first place way out of proportion.

Sheesh

Where is Cricket?

14 months? Is that a typo? I assumed she put an old dog out. Not a lil pupper.

And a goat who caught her eye after murdering the puppy.

South Dakota voted for this woman to be in office twice. Smh. This is deserved.
