The architect of the Project 2025 manifesto for remaking the federal government to serve Donald Trump allegedly told colleagues that he killed a neighbor’s dog with a shovel because it was a nuisance.
Kevin Roberts, who is now president of the right-wing Heritage Foundation, told New Mexico State University colleagues and dinner guests that he killed the pit bull around 2004 because it was barking and bothering his family, according to sources who attended a dinner at his home and described the incident to The Guardian.
…
A professor and her spouse also recalled hearing a similar account directly from Roberts, then a NMSU history professor, at a dinner at his home, while three other professors say they heard the story around that time from colleagues who got it directly from Roberts. None of the sources say they asked him to provide additional details about an incident they found to be unsettling.

These people cannot stop killing dogs. What is going on?
So the threat to people’s pets was not in fact Haitians but republicans themselves? Amazing.
Republicans love killing pets and claiming others are. Strange how they protest everything they like
Conservatives, they’re shooting the dogs, cutting the whales, they’re hitting, they’re hitting the pets of the people that live there. And this is what’s happening in our country, and it’s a shame. 😔
None of the sources say they asked him to provide additional details about an incident they found to be unsettling.
It appears this conservative was happy to recount the event in which he violently massacred a noisy dog, but his various academic audiences never wanted to hear too much about it.
Because, naturally, gruesome acts are unsettling - to put it mildly.
And this is the pious architect of the manifesto dictating how we should lead our lives.
I work nights and my neighbor got a pandemic puppy. When he returned to the office, that bunny was getting separation anxiety pretty hard. Barking his cute little head off.
I certainly understand the frustration.
In my case I left a note and brought the pupper in to nap with me, though. Snuggled right up and passed out.
These dog murdering assholes? Deserve getting the shovel rammed up their ass.
(They subsequently went to doggy day care…. Booo)
I hope the owner of the dog seeks bloody and brutal retribution, if someone did that to one of my dogs theyd have to be burried in mason jars.
Now we know why Trump was all about pet safety!
What is it about the reactionary mind that makes dog murder not only not a shameful story that one might want to keep to oneself, but a story you actually want to tell others or even put in a book?
It shows that you’re not shackled by empathy and are willing to “do what needs to be done.”
Meaning hurt the right people.
Psychopaths, all of them. GOP = Grumpy old psychopaths.
Gustapo of Psychopaths
So, all these people went to this assholes house and listened to him brag about killing a dog with a shovel and never thought to mention it to the police (even anonymously)? I would say that makes them compliant, and no better than him.
Also amazing how these holier than thou people are just absolutely disgusting people once you know anything about them.
I think you want complicit here rather than compliant.
It’s a pitbull…this I understand.
The pitbull didn’t ask to exist, just like any of us. Limiting breeding and sale is one thing, but once a lifeform is already here, that kinda changes things for those of us with empathy. Take that shit back to Reddit.
It’s a pitbull…it’s a rage filled box with a jaw built for killing. The thing is built to fight, mame, and murder.
I totally understand this guy, I had a neighbor that had them. Every time a kid walked by their house their dogs would go into a ballistic frothy rage trying to get over their fence and get at said kid.
If I have to choose between the dog and a kid, the choice is easy.
Alligators are built to tear your limbs off and rip your flesh from your bones. Doesn’t mean I’m going to murder one for no reason.
Would you murder it if it’s constantly in your backyard chasing your kids? I bet so.
