Country singer Kacey Musgraves took a personal shot at Kristi Noem after the former Homeland Security secretary criticized the singer while backing Republican Ken Paxton in the Texas U.S. Senate race.

Noem responded by backing Paxton and saying she preferred country star Ella Langley over Musgraves. Musgraves then invoked an account from Noem’s 2024 memoir involving an aggressive hunting dog.
