Booby-trapped

Bambina Olivares

Isn’t it funny how silicone boobs, like secrets, always bob up to the surface? Or in the case of Byron Noem, husband of former Trump cabinet secretary Kristin Noem, the silicone boobs ARE the secret.

So it seems that the erstwhile first gentleman of South Dakota, presumably a Republican like his corrupt, racist, and gun-loving wife—one of Trump’s pick-me girls who was recently fired as Department of Homeland Security Secretary—lived a double life: straight-presenting upright family values man in real life, crossdresser online who called himself Jason Jackson.

And with a fetish, to boot, for what is known as “bimbofication”—that is, a form of self-expression (or role-playing) that emphasizes the hyper-feminine in all its manifestations, from the exaggerated breasts and body-hugging clothes to feigned helplessness and stupidity.

Not in her (kinky) 2026 Bingo card

Bimbofication is not necessarily a gender-specific proclivity; as Byron Noem’s leaked photos attest, men have embraced this kink, too.

While often stigmatized, there’s nothing inherently wrong with having a fetish, or a kink, which essentially means the same thing, with a few qualifiers. As sexual beings, it’s perfectly normal, if not sometimes dangerous, to be turned on by any number of things: someone’s feet, being tied up in bed, wearing nylons, role-playing, and the like. Clearly, Jeffrey Epstein’s circle had a thing for forcing themselves sexually on young children, even infants, which is not only disgusting but, in fact, criminal.

So Byron likes parading around the internet amongst his online chat groups with inflated triple J cups literally busting out of his tight t-shirt. And judging from the photos, he’s really into it, posing provocatively with his massively enhanced poitrine and making kissy faces at the camera.

So what? Ordinarily, this shouldn’t be a big deal. Whatever floats your boat and all that, right?

I mean, Kristi probably gets off on the idea of a burly ICE agent aggressively tackling down immigrants in the street and arresting them. But based on her “blindsided” reaction to the leaked photos, one could assume that her crossdressing bimbofied buxom Byron was not, and would never be, in her 2026 list of “things that get my juices flowing.”

Sanctimonious conservatives are horrified; Democrats are rejoicing in the schadenfreude of it all.

Live by hate, die by humiliation

As Alain de Botton writes in his book “How to Think More about Sex,” “Our culture encourages us to acknowledge very little of who we normally are in the act of sex. It seems as if it might be a purely physical process, without any psychological importance. But… what happens in lovemaking is closely bound up with some of our most central ambitions.”

“The act of sex plays out through the rubbing together of organs, but our excitement is no boorish physiological reaction; rather, it is an ecstasy we feel at encountering someone who may be able to put to rest certain of our greatest fears, and with whom we may hope to build a shared life based upon common values.”

In Republican terms, these are the much-vaunted family values they claim to uphold but never really live by. Scandal after scandal, and they still haven’t learned a primordial law of the universe: that if you live by hate, you will most likely die in humiliation.

Spilling the beans (or boobs, for that matter)

Perhaps Byron is sighing in relief that the secret is out. He no longer has to hide his most authentic and private self—that of a crossdresser—but his family and the rest of the Republican Party are most likely mortified and enraged at the shame that will now follow them for the rest of their lives.

Now, any mention of Kristi Noem will inevitably be accompanied by that punchline she will absolutely detest but never escape to her dying day—”Oh, the one whose husband turned out to be a crossdressing freak who liked to put on these humongous balloons under his T-shirt and pretend they were his boobs?”

I can’t say I feel an ounce of sympathy for a person as vile as Kristi Noem—just as I am unmoved by the tears of parents who’ve lost their children to Iran’s retaliatory missile strikes.

For these are the same people who cheered on a genocide they were committing on Palestinians in Gaza, bringing their deck chairs and drinks to watch the carnage from a hill like it was the latest blockbuster movie at the drive-in. The same people who had pins created with a noose motif and wore them proudly on their shirts. The same people who broke out the champagne and celebrated, with tears of joy in their eyes, at the passing of the death penalty for Palestinians held in their prisons.

They are the vilest of the vile.
