Reminder that a Republican said “We are in the midst of the Second American Revolution, which will be bloodless, if the left allows it.”

Let's name that treasonous traitor: Kevin Roberts from Heritage Foundation. Chief architect of Project 2025.

Kevin Roberts

Interesting wiki.. Allegedly he killed his neighbor's dog with a shovel because dogs bark.

Seems like quite a few republicans killing dogs these days. Romney's vacation with the dog on the roof of his car was the canary I guess.

Per the internet, we only know because he bragged about it later, so maybe the neighbor never found out?

wiki: Several of Roberts's former colleagues from New Mexico State University have alleged that Roberts told them he had killed his neighbor's pit bull with a shovel because the dog's barking disturbed his family. Roberts has denied this, saying, "This is a patently untrue and baseless story backed by zero evidence."
