This ^^ is an Instagram Bristol Palin posted around Thanksgiving. As you can see, she was still pregnant and noticeably bumping, although if you want to make the argument that she was âcarrying small,â Iâll go along with you. This photo was allegedly taken about four weeks before Bristol Palin gave birth to her second child on December 23rd. Bristol had a little girl, and she named her daughter Sailor Grace Palin. PALIN. As in, she didnât give Sailor her daddyâs last name. Bristol still has not said one word about Sailorâs paternity, although there was lots of sketchiness on Dakota Meyerâs Twitter feed â at first he called Sailor the âBest Christmas present ever!! I couldn’t be more proud of this little blessing.â But then if you check out the tweets that he âlikedâ and you can see that he definitely liked a lot of responses questioning the paternity. This is all so shady and I STILL canât believe Bristol hasnât said anything. But… Dakota is saying something.
Bristol Palin’s new baby daddy may no longer be a mystery … her ex-fiance says he’s the daddy, and he’s gunning for some serious custody. Dakota Meyer filed legal docs, obtained by TMZ, in which he claims he’s the biological father of 3-week-old Sailor. Dakota wants a judge to award him joint legal and physical custody. Bristol has never publicly revealed the identity of the father. She and Dakota broke up 3 months after conception.
Bristol’s baby daddy wants one more thing … child support.
Do you think Dakota really believes he’s the father? Or do you think this is a ploy to try to force the issue of a paternity test? I think it might be a little of both – Dakota really wants to know if he’s the father, and if he is, he wants to be involved.
Hilariously, that’s not where the baby-daddy drama ends, because of course it isn’t with the Palin clan. Sarah Palin issued a statement about Dakota’s filing, saying: “For many months we have been trying to reach out to Dakota Myers [sic] and he has wanted nothing to do with either Bristol’s pregnancy or the baby. Paramount to the entire Palin family is the health and welfare of Sailor Grace… [he’s trying to] save face.” Bristol’s rep also issued a statement: “My values are such that a real American hero doesn’t ask for child support.” Oh, such an exquisite mess. This is what I wanted for a belated Christmas present!
Anyway, it seems that we should have had our hands full with the paternity drama, but no. Some Bristol Truthers are out there and theyâre trying to convince people that Bristol is lying about giving birth on December 23rd, that she really gave birth one month earlier.
Bristol Palin may have delivered her brand new baby just in time for Christmas, but some are trying to steal away her holiday cheer. The 25-year-old mother of two took to Instagram to slam claims that she gave birth to her second child, a daughter named Sailor Grace, over a month earlier than her reported delivery date of Dec. 23.
“For all the people saying I gave birth 11/4/15…here is my IV that was started on 12/22/15 when I was admitted, my baby girl was born 12/23/15 stop trying to create controversy where none exists, desperation is the ugliest thing,” she captioned a split photo of herself in a hospital bed alongside her famous mother, former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin well as a close up of her IV bracelet. The photo was later deleted from the account.
You can see the deleted Instagram here. For what itâs worth, I guess I believe that she really did give birth on December 23rd. Maybe. Sort of. I mean, once you believe that thereâs something really shady going on with the paternity, is it that much of a stretch to believe that thereâs shadiness in other parts of the story? Then again, what reason would she have to lie about the birth date? If she gave birth at term on November 23rd or December 23rd, it doesnât matter to the timeline, really. She was still âwithâ Dakota Meyer back then, in February-April.
Oh, and Bristol & her mom went out and played with guns a few days ago.

I am not a fan of Bristol Palin, but Dakota is turning out be a piece of….something. It isn’t because I don’t believe a man should receive child support from a woman, but I do believe the reports about him being uninvolved during the pregnancy. I really don’t see what could warrant child support of any kind, surely a man with his background and now new-found notoriety can easily find work. The least he could do now is try to forge a relationship with his daughter and co-parent as healthy and peacefully as he can.
I think anyone who willingly gets himself involved with the Palins is side-eye worthy, but I’m not ready to write Dakota off as a POS just yet. By all accounts, there were some serious questions about paternity. Why else would Dakota and Bristol call off their wedding in the face of a ‘planned’ pregnancy, as she tried to spin it? If he didn’t want to become emotionally attached during her pregnancy only to find out that little Sailor is someone else’s child, I can’t really blame him for that.
She could have had a blood test while pregnant- I think enough fetal cells would be in her bloodstream. But either she didn’t or the results were not pointing to Dakota. This really might be a way to get a court-supervised DNA test to decide the issue once and for all. His blessing tweet was carefully worded – it could also be interpreted to just mean she was a blessing for Bristol.
The child support thing is a nice touch. I wonder if the Palins told him they had a test done showing he was the father and mentioned that he would be paying child support? Maybe he didn’t believe their testing. He and Bristol are the only ones who know if the birth date matches times they were together. If the December birth date didn’t match up, that would be an incentive to fudge the date a bit. The reason Birthers are wondering if she did some time shifting is because things haven’t added up before on Palin births.
@jwoolman
I am going to guess that prenatal testing for paternity while pregnant is against her prolife stance.
It is pretty obvious that the paternity was in question until the baby was born. I think Dakota did the right thing by keeping silent during the pregnancy. What else could he have done when he wasn’t sure if he was the father?
@J
She could have had testing done before the birth, but methinks she probably didn’t. I think paternity was in serious question, and she didn’t want to give Dakota ammo one way or the other. The Palins are shady–I totally buy them putting off testing until a shady Palin solution presented itself. Either he now knows Sailor is his kid and wants that acknowledged OR the Palins are still being shifty about getting paternity testing and he’s trying to force their hand.
10 bucks says she hasn’t had a paternity test done yet because she’s saving it for Maury. Mess. Meeeeeessssss.
Jen- not sure how a maternal blood test would have anything to do with pro-life. The test would be done on Bristol, drawing her blood (not the baby’s). It would not be invasive for the baby and would pose no more risk than any other blood draw on the mother.
Does he want joint custody immediately? How will that work if she’s breast feeding? Why should he get child support? Is he not capable of supporting himself and the child half the time? I don’t think Bristol is rolling in money. She may have some but maybe not enough to support this leech for the next 20 years. This is why women should just go to a sperm bank if they want to expand their family if they don’t want a huge headache looming over them for years to come.
Sabrine: Joint custody isn’t the same thing as physical custody. A couple may have joint custody even if the child physically resides with only one parent and the other comes to visit. In the case of an infant, I think that’s a likely arrangement, especially since (whatever else may be going against her), Bristol has some parenting experience and relatives who are able to help with the child. Having joint custody still matters, because it means both parents have equal decision-making power about medical care, schooling, religion, and all the other things affecting a small child.
If she makes substantially more than he does, he is entitled to child support. That’s the case whether or not he’s employed. The idea is that a child deserves to have a similar standard of living regardless of which parent they’re with at the time, and not have to deal with the tension of living in a mansion one day and a one bedroom apartment the next. In this case, where the parents live far apart, child support may also be needed to allow Dakota to fly to Alaska regularly and form a relationship with the child.
That being said, I absolutely agree that someone who wants to purposefully have a child and who isn’t in a really solid romantic relationship would be wise to go to a sperm bank rather than have a child with a short term partner.
We know it was far from an amicable breakup, so I am not sure how his being present during the pregnancy would work exactly. I have heard of guys who move to court to force the pregnant woman to include them during pre-natal but I find it incredibly douchey. The last thing you want is to put her in stressful situations when she is carrying and I dont buy Sarah Palins bs that they wanted him there.
How could he have been move involved with the pregnancy? If crazy Bristol Palin said to go pound sand should he have set a tent up on her lawn? Maybe he could have just stalked her and insisted he go to her Drs appointments? Nice way to get a quick restraining order and be slammed by every woman in America because he was treating her as an incubator and not as a woman with her own life and choices.
How could he have been more involved? And how can we judge him ( and we have plenty of other things to judge him for) for something he had zero control over. I don;t imagine the Palin camp was calling him to go along on Drs appointments or to pick out stuff for the nursery.
If an engagement is called off after finding out the lady is three months pregnant chances are Dakota didn’t think he was the father and the Palins leaked info about his previous marriage to make him look bad.
He most likely didn’t want to get involved until he got a confirmed DNA test after the child was born. Because that was exactly the time he finally acknowledged the newborn baby. The Palins aren’t slick and this guy is going to sing for the cameras if they push him far enough like Levi did. She has all that anti-sex and anti-birth control money and he should have some to keep the child at the same wealthy lifestyle as dear ole Mom.
Her story is that she broke off the engagement with him, so she dumped him.
So I doubt that she wanted him in her life anyways, pregnancy or not.
Also, I don’t blame him for waiting to see if the baby is his.
Anyhoo, somebody needs to get her some abstinence therapy so that she doesn’t keep creating custody drama with every out-of-wedlock baby she keeps having.
Bristol has also proven herself to be a pretty unreliable narrator, FWIW.
@ Bridget
Very true. She’s her mother’s daughter for sure.
Word.
Dakota is a jerk. I’ve seen interviews with him and he is beyond rude and arrogant.
He’s no prize, but I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt given Bristol takes after her mother.
My guess that they broke up because she cheated, which is why he’s waited until the birth to see if the child is even his. As for getting support, I’d love to see Bristol be forced to give up some of ill-gotten gains for her “work” preaching abstinence.
Anyone with a Palin is likely another freak and they are probably soulmate a lol. Love the gossip! Go get er bsby daddy (can’t be bothered to look up his name). Let the games begin!
I believe he took so long to file because they were waiting for the DNA results. Now that results came, he must’ve been proved as the father, he’s gunning for his share. I’ll love watch how it goes.
The legal filings will force a paternity test. That’s probably the only recourse he has because the Palins’ aren’t talking about who the daddy is. Re child support, well, Bristol s rolling in the dough and probably makes more than him so if the baby is indeed his, why not?
He doesn’t need to be unemployed to file for child support. If Bristol makes more money than he does, which is likely since she’s still a D list celebrity, she probably is required to pay some.
Is this some new law. It seems like it took Hailey Berry by surprise and she is still trying to get out of it.
@ Lady Mimosa
Lol no it’s not a new law. Halle seems to think because she a woman she shouldn’t have to pay, which sadly is how a lot of women feel. She doing what many dead beat dads do is trying to get out of it.
Not a new law at all, Lady Mimosa. However, I think the stereotype is still of a man paying child support to a woman because it’s historically been (and still often is) more common for the father to be the higher earner. I think there are some women who haven’t really thought about their incomes in comparison to those of their exes. Also, sometimes women just don’t want to pay, as some men don’t.
Prenatal paternity testing does present some risk of miscarriage, same as amnio and cvs. Just based on events and my current opinion of Bristol, I think Bristol might not be 100% sure who the baby daddy is. He could just be finally pressing the issue, and Sarah should shut up too because what if it turns out not to be him. Yes I think Sarah is that dumb to speak before knowing everything.
No, technology has moved on. These days they can test prenatally by just drawing blood from the mother. I had it done for my own last pregnancy. No risk to the baby at all – they extract fetal DNA from the mother’s blood.
Dakota Meyer has a legal right to seek child support if the baby spends time with him (close to as much time as she spends with the crazy Palins) AND Bristol makes more money than he does. The court will try to even it out.
The whole thing is shady. Nothing about these actions are normal. I think Bristol got knocked up and they tried to pin it on Dakota without any intention to actually get married. Shady shady hypocrites.
Actually, there was some question that they might have done the same with Levi, zeroed in on him as an acceptable father even though there were other possibilities. He might never have done paternity testing. Bristol was not known for being a one-man woman at the time. It’s a moot point now, since Levi wants to be Tripp’s dad. But Bristol tried to toss him aside once he was no longer needed for the campaign and seemed surprised that he went to court to establish his visitation rights.
They dragged Levi Johnston through the absolute mud. He’s no winner, that’s for sure, but Bristol chose to date him, have sex with him, and birth his baby. Why make him the enemy afterwards? Because the Palins are spiteful, vindictive, and controlling.
There will be a nice quiet settlement with Dakota and they will let the public assume he’s the father, lest the real father come out of woodwork seeking a payout.
If it comes to light that the Palin family has tried to railroad a Marine this will backfire very badly on them. Their conservative base will never stand for that.
I wish you were right, but their conservative base eats pretty much whatever $#!? the palins feed them.
I’m so depressed by the fact that the Republican Party has been hijacked by people like these hypocritical, bible-thumping, trailer trash, money-grubbing nut jobs. You can’t have a decent conversation with some looney screaming GUNS! JESUS!
I tend to give anyone the benefit of the doubt (except the Palins), but being a Marine doesn’t mean Dakota M. is automatically trustworthy or a good person. Dakota could be a sleaze. Birds of a feather and all that.
He could be a sleaze, but then we only have the Palins’ word to go on, now don’t we?
They are just the tackiest people who ever lived. I know this is petty, but that white Christmas tree is appalling. And the guns. That poor baby has to grow up with these people. Btw, does she have her own money? How can she pay child support?
!!
She probably makes money off her hypocritical speaking engagements, so add that to her dental hygienist $$ and gf is balling. lmao.
As someone who just got their restricted license (I enjoy target shooting, and have no plans on shooting anything living unless a coyote tries to run off with one of our pets – we live in a really rural area and there are A LOT of coyotes, and I grew up with an RCAF Major as a grandfather and a cadet leader as a father, so we grew up with very strict, respectful rules on firearms) – but seeing that photo makes me cringe. That handgun isn’t being pointed in a particularly safe direction – I don’t care if it’s already gone through the unloading steps – I keep that shit pointed squarely at a target or the ground, not in the general direction of people.
The other thing is – it bothers me when people show off their firearms. REALLY bothers me. It’s just asking for trouble. If you’re around sketchy people, and you’re displaying your firearms on social media, you might as well be brandishing around $100’s to $1000’s of dollars. You’ll never see me displaying a rifle or handgun in my home. I haven’t purchased my first yet (just got my possession/acquisition in the mail a few weeks ago) but when I do, it’s going directly into a locked case and a locked closet in the basement. It’s not there for my protection. It’s not their for anything other than target shooting. It’s going to be in the case whenever it’s not being used. But you KNOW these people aren’t like that. They clearly don’t have the same kind of healthy respect for dangerous weapons that I was taught.
Agree with everything you said. I’m not opposed to people owning guns. My husband target shoots, though we don’t own any guns. My father had guns in a locked case that we were taught to never, ever touch and we were not allowed to point even toy guns or our hand representing a gun at another person. I think it’s fine for responsible people to own guns, but we know how responsible these people are.
Erinn, a very wise comment. I agree with everything you’ve said.
I’m also letting out a dry chuckle, because my boyfriend loves his guns. Don’t get me wrong, he is a wonderful man. He’s smart about his firearms and safety is ALWAYS his number one concern. The only time he ever shoots anything is when he’s doing target practice in an open field behind his friends’ house. But he’s also a 25 year old man and he loves his guns. He doesn’t show them off on social media, thank heavens, but he will send me these ridiculous pictures when he and the boys are out shooting with each other. Like, beer in one hand, rifle in the other. Of course he’s being tongue-in-cheek about it, and I just have to laugh and lovingly say “you’re an idiot, be safe.” He also keeps his rifle (not loaded) propped up against his couch when he’s at his apartment. Again, just have to roll my eyes at him with love.
Shambles – I completely get that lifestyle haha. My husbands family is like that, minus the beers because they’re weirdly against drinking. The rifles are in the family room – in a glass case, proudly displayed. They all go out hunting and hang out at the camp and I know at least one of them has some metal in his head because … well. They’re lucky but some of them aren’t as bright as others.
As careful as I am, I’ll still joke around with dad, or whoever, and just be like “wait… you’re not supposed to do that?” whenever I see something foolish being done on a tv show, just to get a rise out of them.
Mostly, I’m only terrified of the people like the Palin’s owning guns haha.
I live in a very rural area and nearly everyone owns guns and a lot of people hunt. So a lot of hunting and target practice pictures show up on my social media, though never is it just a picture of them showing off their gun (way tacky). My state is an open carry state so it’s not uncommon to see people park by the side of the road (even the highway) and head off into the brush with rifle or shotgun in hand for a spot of deer or bird hunting. That’s just how life is around here. Towns are far apart and not many people live in between. I imagine Alaska is similar.
I agree. That being said GNAT, I think Dakota is making a brilliant move. He is forcing the paternity issue out in the open.
If he IS the dad, he gets money (I bet she makes more from her abstinence talks than whatever he earns, plus now I am sure she will do interviews about her “brave life as a single mom”). He also gets the poor child and frankly, I feel sorry for her regardless of fathered her – having to grow up amongst these idiots, ugh.
IF he is not the dad, he gets all the publicity and money – here come the interviews about his being betrayed and hurt or hush money from the Palins to block said interviews. Plus the whole world will know that he is not the dad, which would be sweet revenge if she cheated on the American Hero despite her abstinent ways…
God help me, I like this. (Hangs head in shame). But I still feel sorry for the baby.
Hangs head next to yours. Yes, except for the poor baby, I’m kinda loving it too.
She probably wants to do another reality show or anything that will bring money and freebies. He knows the baby is a potential storyline (unfortunately).
He’s refusing to dance to their tune and I too think it’s funny. Either way he can’t lose here. If he is the dad (and I don’t think he knows yet), they can’t claim he has no interest in the kid and if he isn’t, well, everyone will know that too. Poor kid, though. Imagine growing up and reading all of this drama surrounding your birth.
Yes this whole thing is juicier than daytime soaps. I do pause and think of the child. Poor thing, she knocked on the wrong door – that’s my mother’s saying about kids born into situations they cannot control.
She will make additional money giving anti-abortion speeches using her new baby as a prop. They pro-life people are not going to care about how she got knocked up just like the anti-gay marriage folks don’t care that the county clerk woman had been divorced a million times! LOL. It’s all about preaching the gospel of hate.
Case and point, her deflection from the topic at hand already started with the gun posing pictures to get the right wing back on her side to defend her against the liberals. Next will be trashing women who don’t have the resources she has. So predictable but works.
The tree is horribly ugly, I agree.
Yes
“They are just the tackiest people who have ever lived”.
And that my friend just about says it all. No need to write any more đ
I think he’s got her and her mother by the throats and he’s about to come into some money.
I DON’T believe he’s the Father (or at least Bristol strongly believes he’s not) or else all we’d be hearing about is poor long-suffering single Bristol and how her American hero betrayed his American sweetheart and their American baby. Instead she’s kept quiet and is seemingly trying to slowly edge him out of their lives.
BUT with this little move by him if she doesn’t agree to paying the child support/custody then he could demand a paternity test and it’d be out there all nice and legal that American Bristle cheated and is an American Whore (I’m not calling her one, but I have no doubt she’d eagerly call another woman one in this same position).
I don’t think Mommy Palin can risk it. What do her and her ridiculous family have left but their reputation and even among the all-forgiving conservative bunch a wayward woman who keeps getting pregnant by strange men isn’t good Fox News filler material.
I guess this kid’s not as dumb as I assumed. Pretty nefarious way to make bank off these people’s inability to be honest for once.
She lives in Alaska. He lives very far away. He will never get even half custody. He will never be awarded child support. He will get visitation rights, and we’ll see how much he exercises his rights, considering she lives in Alaska. I doubt much except holidays and summers..
The guy is able-bodied. Bristol barely works herself. I’m astounded he is asking for child support.
He sounds like a loser, as far as I’m concerned.
Just because they are physically apart does not mean he can’t get half custody.
Be fair Jayna. Bristol lives in Alaska, she will probably get physical custody since the baby is so young. This means the father has to travel to see his baby. I think it would be fair to require her to foot half the travel and accommodation expenses seeing as she is the wealthier partner. Just to be clear, were they living in the same State, I would be with you sneering at his child support claim.
Jayna and Kelly: I also wondered about custody and visitation arrangements, since she lives in Alaska and he several (?) states away. What does he actually do nowadays to earn a living? She doesn’t seem to be earning too much, so I’m interested to know how much she could fork over to him. What a bloody mess. I’m so glad I live a quiet, peaceful life away from the public eye. Just thinking about all this drama and complications makes me shudder.
He wants joint legal custody. That means the Bristol would have to consult with him about things like the baby’s medical care, education, religion, schooling, etc. Even if he cannot be a consistent physical presence in his daughter’s life, he can still be a joint decision-maker over major things in her life.
They were planning on living in his home state when they were engaged, correct? I am not sure what the birth mother living in Alaska has to do with whether or not he should have his parental rights limited. She is choosing to live in Alaska, away from the person she supposedly created a life with.
He able bodied, and so is she. But you say she barely works. Why?!?! If she isn’t paying him support, that kind of implies that she is expecting to have him pay her support. If you shame him for asking for support, the same should apply to her.
@ Tiffany and Sam
This +1000000 thankfully there are two people who know what Join custody means. I’m sure people like Jayna won’t be calling Bristol a loser if she was the one asking.
Jayna- the story has a long way to go before we know what’s really going on, so it’s rather premature to call him a loser. But joint custody is common today and distance doesn’t matter once the child is old enough. So the court could set joint custody with the provision that the parent has to come to the child until the child reaches a certain age. But this might be really just a way to establish paternity or lack thereof. The bid for child support could just be a way to get Bristol’s attention.
I agree, I think this is all a strategic move on his part. They can either pay him a monthly “support” check or a one time settlement , or he can blow the whole thing up and demand a paternity test, exposing Bristol for the hypocrite she is.
“My values are such that a real American hero doesnât ask for child support.” I’m sorry, didn’t she ask for child support from baby daddy #1 while raking in tons of cash on a speaking tour?
Honestly I’m just laughing about how he’s turned the tables on them. Maybe they tried to stonewall him and force him into the Deadbeat Dad role and this is his reply. I kinda doubt he actually wants child support, I think he still doesn’t know 100% that he’s the father (or not) and filing for all this will force the issue. I think he’s refusing to be the Palins’ little scapegoat and I find that funny. To think they could have saved themselves all this trouble if they weren’t so vocal about their pretend values.
I imagine the request for support is to pay for access (travel and lodging when he visits). He can’t ask for spousal support since they weren’t married.
I think they all deserve each other. This guy was fully prepared to marry into that family and carry their brand of conservative politics. There are no good guys here.
If he doesn’t believe he is the father then forcing Palins to acknowledge it serves what purpose other than public humiliation of the poor woman? I honestly would never do something like that because it smells badly of the worst kind of revenge – kicking somebody when they are down.
Farhi, it could be that he doesn’t want them to insinuate that he is the problem in all this. They’ll drag him down and point their fingers at him and perhaps he realizes this. If he’s not the father, why should he have to endure such treatment and be forever side-eyed over “not stepping up” or whatever spin they decide to put on it? Obviously I don’t know but it seems logical, because this family is anything but.
And the poor woman? Yeah, not so much. I stopped feeling bad for her the instant she started (and then continued, ad nasuem) to capitalize on her obvious hypocrisy.
Does Bristol even work? What income that child support is supposed to come from?
And isn’t child support for the parent with whom the child lives? So the ex is asking for a child support when he doesn’t even have the custody of the child?
I think a paternity test was done and Dakota is the father. What I am waiting for is the other “mystery guy” to come out of the woodwork. This will turn into one huge hurricane of a mess
To say I cackled yesterday when I heard this news is an understatement. Looks like the chickens have come home to roost.
Levi #2. This time Sarah doesn’t need to parade a man around to show her daughter had a relationship with him. Oh sweet Karma…..poor little Bristol. Again I take this opportunity to thank John McCain for putting these people on the map. Sarah could have been the leader of the free world and that’s so frightening. Trailer Trash.
John McCain could’ve been the leader of the “free world”. I think it is far more frightening.
I have such feelings of schadenfreude. They’re all such terrible people. I also think Bristol cheated on Dakota and he is forcing her hand to reveal the paternity. It’s kind of brilliant, really.
I completely agree with this. I think he either knows he’s not the father and wants it out there since they’ve been trashing him, or he’s not sure and needs to know one way or another so they CAN’T trash him.
This family is just so tacky. It never ends with them.
I guess Bristol is pretty well off. What does he do, if anything? Why shouldn’t she pay child support? If the sexes were reversed, we would see nothing wrong with the mother’s request.
since she isnt asking anyone for child support, i assume there’s something shady afoot.
Yeah, its weird that she’s not asking for child support yet. That would probably automatically result in a paternity test.
If she knew for sure the baby was Dakota’s, she probably would have been bitching about him and his lack of interest all throughout the pregnancy. But the fact that she’s been silent about him makes me go hmmmm….
“Bristol’s rep also released a statement, saying: ‘My values are such that a real American hero doesn’t ask for child support’ ”
Seriously. What on earth is that statement? I mean, talk about the most amazingly absurd statement ever. First off, Dakota isn’t a hero, and what does asking for child support and visitation to a child have to do with being an American Hero?
Bristol, her rep, Kelly R. and her people need to move far to the island of Alaska and look at the Russians.
Isn’t Dakota a Medal of Honor recipient though? Granted, I don’t know much about it, but doesn’t that mean that he did something heroic?
D, the Medal of Honor is the U.S.’s highest award for military valor. It’s often awarded posthumously. Meyer was awarded the Medal for recovering the bodies of three fellow Marines and a Navy corpsman, and helping to evacuate at least a dozen wounded, all under fire. So whatever he is outside of the military, he did do something truly heroic during his time in the Marines.
There is a blog that, using cumberstalker-level detecting skills, has concluded that the baby is the product of a random hookup in Las Vegas in February. (The source of the November birth date.)
Link?

Please note that I am neither endorsing or repudiating this version of events.
Little Darling – Oh, my. So the baby really was born in early November. The damning thing isn’t actually the date 11-4-15 written on the IV, they could have explained that somehow (maybe). The confirmation is the fact that she deleted the picture and then reposted another one, with a late December date substituted in that spot, that photoshoppers are saying was photoshopped. Regardless of how they did it, the fact that they bothered to delete and repost with the later date tells me that the November date was correct. Now the mystery is why exactly was it important to pretend she was born six weeks later. It must have to do with dates Dakota knows he wasn’t with her. But are they trying to convince him that he is the father or that he is not the father? Does Bristol want to keep him away or draw him in? His filing for custody and child support seems unexpected to the Palins so they are saying peculiar things in response. They’re such disorganized conspirators.
Maybe this? And now I have to get out of the Bristol Palin rabbit hole!!!
http://rightwingcrooks.blogspot.com/2015/12/bristol-palin-gives-birth-to-second.html
THIS IS AMAZING.
I love her posing for the picture in the hospital with duck lips and full makeup. her chin surgery proves how focused she is on her looks. her mom looks like she has an eating disorder so it seems to run in that family, screwed up messages regarding your body
Sarah really doesn’t look good. Either she is seriously ill or she is losing weight due to extreme stress – apparently they are in big financial trouble and she is becoming persona non grata in her usual circles. So deals to make money are falling apart. Her book didn’t do well, her subscription service tanked, speaking engagements dried up. The Palins don’t seem to be planners, so they spent assuming the big money would keep coming in. Now they are trying to sell off assets.
I can’t help but thing of a Sailor Soldier whenever I see the name Sailor Palin.
My first thoughts at seeing last night’s headline about this were:
1. Can’t wait to see the Celebitchy post & comments in the morning.
2. Stock up on popcorn.
It will be very interesting to see how this all shakes out.
She seems to be advertising that gun.
Hee! Straight out of the “Price is Right” school of modelling!
I’m trying to figure out what has happened to her ankles/feet in that pic. Also too, who wears heels to a shooting range?
I’ve seen on other sites people are really showing their sexism when it comes to a man receiving child support ughhhh. It’s totally fine to me and doesn’t make a person “less of man”.
He knows it’s not his and he’s wanting to put her on blast.
Exactly what I said, and he manages to look like the caring Father at the same time.
Man, Sarah Palin is stupid. Meyer may not be the smartest tool in the shed, but at least he can actually claim to have actually done SOMETHING of actual value in his life. The man did win the Medal of Honor for genuine heroics during a war. Which is more than any of the Palins can have to their names. He’s got a lot of support in the conservative community because many of them consider him a legitimate hero. Why would you want to start a mess with this guy? If there are any issues, work them out privately. If he is the father, work out a private custody agreement. Stuff like this makes me think that he’s not, or that at the very least the paternity is unsure.
This is true. I read the description of his actions on the battlefield that earned the Medal of Honor, and it is incredible. He demonstrated true heroism, true courage, and loyalty to his fellow Marines. His actions under fire are the real thing; Bristol and Sarah posing with their guns just look foolish. The Palins will not make any friends if they trash him.
This story has been bizarre and shady since the canceled wedding that turned into a Kentucky BBQ for the families. Yet the woman who hosted said BBQ cannot even get his last name correct.
I noticed that too. Ignorant or passive aggressive? I guess you probably get what you deserve when you’re involved with this lot.
He knowingly entered dramaville by associating with them in the first place, didn’t he.
If Dakota is the father, he might also need the court to order that his name be put on the birth certificate.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. I think Dakota is smarter then I originally thought. I hope he has a good lawyer. With Levi, Bristol wanted to erase him out of their son’s life, Levi would have none of that and now they share joint custody.
I think Dakota isn’t going to allow Bristol to cut him out of his kid’s life. Dakota is no Levi, he’s a Medal of Honor winner, not some teenage boy without media connections. Bristol should play nice, or all her secrets could be revealed.
Sarah Palin is showing her absolute hypocrisy when it comes to people who wear the uniform. She had no problem parading his service around when he was engaged to Bristol, but now he’s not a “real american hero”.
As to Dakota not being involved during the pregnancy, doesn’t Bristol stay in Alaska while he lives somewhere in the lower 48? Aside from sending some money, there’s really not much he could have done outside of packing up his life and moving to Alaska for 9 months. And even then, are they really trying to say that he should have no say in the child’s life? Did someone forget to tell them that they are conservative republicans?
If he is the father, I fine with him getting child support w/ joint physical custody. The child shouldn’t have to deal with sharp declines in standards of living between both parents. Otherwise, you end up creating a situation that can bred favoritism and resentment.
Sarah doesn’t seem like one to give up a fight so this should be messy and potentially career damaging. Her base is going to eat her alive.
Please let go of the idea that conservative Republicans all fit into the same mold. They are no more are identical to each other than liberal Democrats are.
There are some differences, but political categorizations exist for a reason. Liberal Democrats may live differently, but they share a core set of values that differentiates them from conservative and moderate democrats. The same goes for conservative republicans. This is a group (conservatives) within a group (republicans), the more that you narrow down and eliminate differing factors, the more that people in the group start to become similar. That is the purpose of political subgroups, you’re either in it or you’re not. The one that Palin claims that she belongs to, exposes a strong heterosexual two-parent home philosophy.
Sochan, thank you. It’s stereotypical. CK, I disagree with your statement strongly. They may exist for a reason but the reason is neither valid or supportable. If you substituted political affiliation with race in the above–everyone would be howling with dismay including me, But stereotyping republicans is blood sport and considered fair game all too often.
Ps–no fan of plains and not impressed with anyone in this story.
@DM Race isn’t a choice. Political affiliation is. This is not about their specific behavior, but the values that they choose to promote and believe in. If a group promotes a certain set of values and it’s members join said group because of that certain set of values, then saying said members have a certain set of values is not out of the blue. nor is it stereotyping. People that call themselves socially conservative republicans are going to be, you guessed it, socially conservative. Please don’t try to make some metaphor by substituting in race because that is not even remotely close to this situation.
Your point that race isn’t a choice is valid but irrelevant when it comes to stereotyping. Stereotyping others is not acceptable. Period. Any diversity training will teach participants to value differences — all the ways people differ — including social and cultural elements that are choice and aren’t choice. Ultimately religion is a choice — does stereotyping on the basis of religion sit well with you ? I bet not. Me neither. And neither does stereotyping others on the basis of politics. People are all individuals and should be treated and respected as same….regardless of race, age, gender (not choices) or religion, politics etc (choices).
Why did she not give her daughter her father’s name and she did so for her son. That is what makes it a bit strange to me
I think Levi and Bristol were still engaged to be married when Tripp was born. She tried to get rid of Levi later. Plus they were paraded around as a couple with a youngster on the way all thru the Presidential campaign. So Levi had no trouble getting his name on the birth certificate and getting his name attached to Tripp.
Is she wearing heels/wedges to go shooting? Yeah, that all I got.
Photoshooting that is. They are probably posing in their own front yards. The trailers are just out of the frame….
I find it more weird she is wearing boots on CARPET! Who wears boots (or any shoes for that matter?) on carpet! I don’t understand americans. Why would you want to wear shoes in your house?!?! So uncomfortable and if you have carpet it will ruin it.
This can all be settled by both of them battling it out on Dancing With The Stars. Jk. Poor kid. The Palins are the essence of cringe.
This story is not over – not by a long shot. I think that Dakota is playing a clever game. He forces the truth out in court. If he is the dad (which I doubt) he looks like a hero for ensuring he stays in his child’s life. If he’s not, he gets to play the victim of a “loose” woman, and he’s a war hero veteran to boot! It’s perfect. Look out Palins, I think you’ve finally met your match.
Seriously, this is their Great White. It does crack me up though how people are KNOWINGLY apart of a political party that judges and trashes people for this exact same lifestyle only to end up targets themselves.
No waxing on and on about abstinence for this family .
Why do you keep making the ‘she named the baby Palin!’ comment? Why wouldn’t she? It’s 2016 and she isn’t in a relationship with the guy anymore, so why on earth would she give her his name? Tripp (?) has Levi’s name because they were still together and going to get married. It’s not conspiracy, it’s just common sense.
And now I need to shower for commenting about this band of merry homophobic misfits.
I think people are questioning that decision because of the Palins social conservatism and hyper-Christianity. Correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn’t the “social conservative Christian” thing to do is give the baby the dad’s last name, regardless if they are together?
1: The Palin family is not religious, no matter that they occasionally throw their conservative Christian base a bone now and again by saying something religious-like. It’s just for show. Trust me.
2: Bristol, aided by her mother, has a proven track record of throwing the fathers of her children under a bus when it suits her. This family is a nasty piece of work.
3: This is going to blow up badly in the Palins’ faces. They cannot win this, because they made the huge mistake of running their game on a decorated Marine. A lot of Conservatives might still like Sarah Palin, but they love the military more.
4: The Palins cannot win this. Damage is done. If Dakota is the father, the base will not forgive Bristol/Sarah for denying their child his name, and for trashing him in published statements. If Dakota is not the daddy, the base will not forgive Bristol/Sarah for cheating on a Marine during engagement, dumping him, and humiliating him publicly. They lose either way. Game over. It’s just a matter of the details coming out.
5: Bristol has stayed silent in order not to incriminate herself (see #4), but Dakota is going to draw her out and it will be a glorious mess.
Oh totally, I agree with you. They aren’t really Christians – they just toss a bone out once and awhile. And you’re right on all counts. This is going to be a hella mess. They picked the wrong dude this time.
My guess is that she is not sure who the father is, and may not want to confirm what could be multiple possibilities. I have had that feeling since the suddenly canceled wedding.
And I think #4 in the list above is spot on. Forcing a paternity test is a PR no-win for the P-family.
Because the Right Wingers/pro-family values people don’t go around giving their kids the Mom’s last name like us “evil abortion loving godless Liberals”. They give the child the father’s last name, or at least hyphenate as Palin-Myers. If a father is not named on the birth certificate by the mom, hospitals in the US also will use the the mother’s last name to identify the baby until corrected by the Mom.
It’s the biggest clue that Bristol did not write down or know the father of the baby at birth, that’s why everyone is talking about the kid’s last name. It’s not 2016 in the pro-family right wing, it’s always 1950’s with patriarchy rules.
Because for such a conservative family, traditionally the baby gets the father’s last name instead of being erased in every way from the baby’s life.
Dakota is a decorated Marine. I do not believe he’s a dirtbag. I believe he has strong reason to believe she cheated and he’s not the father, and he wants to force her to a paternity test, thereby forcing a public revelation that she’s the real dirtbag. This is the theory I’m sticking with until more is revealed. I hope he holds her feet to the fire. Her and her stupid family.
If he is the father then he should be asking for a joint custody but no child support. After all he is the one who had a secret relationship while engaged to Bristol. They broke up when it came out.
If he doesn’t believe he is the father than it makes no sense at all other than some kind of a vengeance trip.
I think we can safely chalk this up to vengeance trip without too much snuff. Not exactly shocking, if the shoe was on the other foot the Palin’s would be on every media program blasting his name to hell and back.
Iirc, the ‘secret relationship’ was about him having been married previously, and not that he was cheating on her.
He should get child support if only to cover the cost of travel since she’s the one who moved back to Alaska when they were going to live in the lower 48 states.
“Iirc, the âsecret relationshipâ was about him having been married previously, and not that he was cheating on her”
Wasn’t he still in contact in his ex-wife or something like that? There must’ve been more than just a prior marriage for Palin to break up with him after they built him up and had the marriage and everything already planned, and a baby on the way.
@ Farhi
You had the information wrong in the first place, but you spouted it off anyway. Now that you’ve been corrected you’re still trying to push the same story. He did NOT have a secret relationship. He was NOT secretly seeing his ex-wife. None of this is about Dakota. It’s about BRISTOL.
@Sochan, I don’t have any information on this story. I read some gossip in passing once. If I am wrong, no problem, it simply means the gossip was wrong, which is to be expected.
I think they all deserve each other. The guy was prepared to marry her. He knew what she and her family were about. The schadenfreude displayed in this thread is really not warranted regardless of who cheated on whom.
I simply find this case extremely confusing. How is he asking for child support when he doesn’t have a custody of the child? It makes no sense to me. And that is my only interest in it.
Welp, I assume he can request that the court force Bristol to have a paternity test? The drama should be over pretty quick either way…he’s either the father or not.
My question is why Bristol thought this dude would go quietly into the night? He seemed to be enjoying the “fame” of being involved with the Palins a tad too much.
“Bristol Palin gave birth to her second child on December 23rd.”
Second? Or third? đ
I like to think it’s the third. It’s my favorite conspiracy theory.
Not much to add:
1) Well played, Dakota.
2) I get a global warming vibe from the guns and girls photo shoot.
Poor girl. How does she pick these “winners”.
Sure, she is from a screwed up family, but it is not her fault. With parents like this we should give her a break.
With all her ignorant and intolerant spewing of garbage, she does not get a break. Abstinance poster girl my a$$. Ha!
Well in my opinion she’s no ‘winner’ herself. like pairs with like. Although in this case, I think she was the one getting the winning deal. I wouldn’t be involved with the pregnancy either if I didn’t know who the father was!
Her parents are trashy for sure, but similar to Lindsay Lohan, crappy parents are only a pass for so long. She’s halfway into her twenties and has the means to get her act together (particularly before the prances around the country judging everyone else), but she prefers to grift for sympathy to finance her lies and poor judgment.
And you know what, if she had come out and said, “Look, I screwed up and I’m pregnant again. It was an accident but I’m choosing to continue with this pregnancy. I don’t believe abstinence-only sex education is a realistic method any more” she’d get a mountain of support from people of all political stripes. But no, it was “planned” (honestly, does anyone believe that?) and everyone else is just a h8ter and mean for judging her. And now she’s got a very messy situation on her hands, all of her own doing. So, girl bye.
I assumed that what Bristol P. meant by that was that she and (presumably Dakota M) the dad had planned to get pregnant eventually (also presumably after marriage) but it had happened sooner than later. The Palins – well, Sarah and Bristol – are very manipulative with their choice of words.
She should be forced to go on Maury and get paternity tests for both her children and both the presumed fathers and also a maternity test for Sarah’s youngest child regarding the rumors that Bristol is the actual mother.
Does Maury pay?
Did anyone look at that instagram of her in the hospital? Holy moly that’s a TON of makeup she’s wearing. I didn’t even recognize her at first.
Seriously, when is the last time she spoke on abstinence? Wasn’t that an earlier gig? Also, from what I remember of them, Candie’s shoes are the epitome of non-abstinence gal shoes. (Haha.) Also, research and Bristol show that abstinence education doesn’t work!
Candie’s also hired that anti-vax shill Jenny McCarthy to pose with their shoes while she’s sitting on the can (panties down). Anyone remember those ads? Candie’s is the last company to trump abstinence.
It’s always the super preachy “religious” parents that end up having kids that are major f*ck ups.
She strikes me as one of those women who will just go on having kids and getting child support from each of the children to live off.
Well the first baby daddy has nothing to give her. I don’t think he makes much money and the child support is probably very little. This second child might make her more money. It’s just funny how she was going all over America preaching about abstinence while secretly knocking boots and not even giving a f*ck about being careful. I just feel sorry for the kids.
Well who’s to say she isn’t applying for welfare or WIC too. Yes they are total hypocrites.
Going through this thread, I forgot that I wasn’t in a soap opera forum.
These POS Palins need to go away. Now. Psychopaths, one and all.
Oh, and Sarah looks anorexic.
What a nice wholesome family. Hey, whatever happened to the porn movie made by Bristol’s first baby-daddy after this clan chewed him up and spit him out? Is that still getting circulated at the trailer park?
HAHAHAHA. I knew about Playgirl, but a movie too?
If they share equal custody of a child, I don’t think either parent should get child support.
This is all pretty normal, except for the paternity speculation. Joint custody is the norm and is what the law prefers unless there’s some reason one parent isn’t fit. Heck, even Kelly Rutherford had joint custody until recently. Child support is also standard, and Bristol probably still does make enough money “speaking” and “writing” about various hypocritical things to make more than her former fiance.
The deleted instagram foto shows 2 different pics. That is not the same hand or IV. The Palins can’t grasp that not everyone is as stupid as they are. Lying like a rug.
What an embarrassment and disappointment Bristol Palin must be to her family. The girl can’t seem to keep her legs closed for God’s sake. She brings trouble to her family and her own doorstep at every turn. Has she ever heard of birth control? If she wants to keep having babies out of wedlock then she would be wise to go to a sperm bank so she doesn’t have to share custody and pay child support to scumbag ex-boyfriends. She has no one to blame but herself for making her life such a complicated mess. What a dummy!
Meh. For all those saying, “how could he be involved,” there’s no way we can know the exact situation – maybe he couldn’t. But my second son came from a short-term relationship and stressful as it was at times, he made an effort. He went to doctor appointments, bought baby stuff and was there at the birth. If Bristol banned him, well, that’s on her. But if she honestly did want him involved – it can totally be done. IJS. He’s pulling a dick move right now imo, and I’m by no means a Palin fan.
You say that we don’t the exact situation, while you judge him without that information. Then telling others poster that they are wrong on their views because they don’t know what when down. How does that work?
