  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nKristi Noem is leaving her husband of 34 years, Bryon Noem, according to _Daily Mail_. Let the memes commence!\n\nAs background, Kristi's mother, Corinne Arnold, revealed in the exclusive report Friday that the two are officially splitting up after photos of Bryon wearing simulated breasts and tight garments were leaked online earlier this year. In those bombshell April reports, also from the _Daily Mail_ , Bryon allegedly sent explicit messages to adult entertainers in an online fetish community under a pseudonym \"Crystal\" and expressed an interest in \"bimbofication,\" a sexual role-play in which a person adopts exaggerated feminine characteristics and behaviors.\n\nBryon has not identified as transgender, an identity distinctly different from this fetish. However, Kristi Noem's record of attacking the rights of trans and gender-expansive people made her the subject of public ridicule — and memes and hilarious social-media discourse highlighting her hypocrisy — following the reports of Bryon's secret activities.\n\nAccording to Arnold, the former secretary of Homeland Security told members of her family in late spring that she had retained a lawyer and intended to end the marriage. The conversation reportedly took place at a birthday party for one of the couple's grandchildren. Although _Daily Mail_ is reporting the divorce as confirmed, no public filing has hit the internet. However, Bryon has reportedly moved about 20 miles from the couple's South Dakota ranch.\n\nAs the divorce news continues to hit the internet, the trolling is amping up once again as social media users poke fun with a slew of punny memes and jokes.\n\nThis story is developing, but check out some of the best memes and shady posts so far below.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n> ###\n\n\n\n\n> ###\n\n\n\n\n> ###\n\n\n\n\n> ###\n\n\n\n\n> ###\n\n\n\n\n> ###\n\n\n\n\n> ###\n\n\n\n\n>",
