Project 2025 mastermind boasted of killing neighbor's dog with a shovel: report - eviltoast

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.

    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)
