‘I will, of course, be approving the commendation’

'Paramount public importance'

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we take another shot of caffeinated, sugary soda from the Kamala Harris-obsessed media, with the same kind of awkward, increasingly diminished returns popular with a certain president. What happens when you predict a forecast of raining cats and dogs in Ohio, only to bring the television cameras to a crisis you can’t ignore? The Post Millennial’s Andy Ngo joins us to discuss the first felony conviction of an antifa rioter from Portland, Oregon, and its implications on national security and cultural discourse. Lawsuit in California, New Jersey, and Georgia could soon reshape how we address riot violence—and there’s no one better to discuss that than the master of riot coverage himself. We hit the brakes to discuss one of the biggest cinematic accomplishments in “mockumentary” history—and to hear from the minds behind it. Straight from the “black carpet” at the premiere of “Am I Racist?” by The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh, we bring you the best analysis and footage of the movie already selling out theaters nationwide, according to The Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro. Finally, we dig into a bit of “Mail Time” to answer a few of your questions.

Woofy Acres dog rescue’s neglect on shelter dogs leads to criminal investigation after the San Bernardino County Animal Care seized 114 dogs from them in mid-July. The San Bernardino Sun reports that county officials said that the dogs seized from the dog rescue were primarily large and aggressive Pit Bulls with severe health issues. They also report that the dogs lived in “inadequate conditions” at the over-capacity kennel that Woofy Acres was running in Pinon Hills. Unfortunately, because of the dogs’ aggressive nature and declining health, 93 out of the 114 dogs were put down. County animal care spokesperson Francis Delapaz reveals to the San Bernardino Sun that 19 dogs have been placed. Meanwhile, two dogs, a female Pit Bull Terrier and a Shepherd mix, are still up for adoption at 19777 Shelter Way in San Bernardino. Animal advocates and people who work and volunteer in animal shelters reacted strongly upon hearing the news about the ongoing investigation on Woofy Acres and its founder, Dianne Bedford. Heather McDermott-Perez, a volunteer with Orange County Animal Care said, “(Bedford) needs to never pull dogs again.” The San Bernardino Sun reveals that the Orange County Animal Care released a total of 149 dogs to Woofy Acres, with the last placement in January of this year. Additional insight to the dog rescue and the neglect that the dogs experienced were revealed by Lauren Cardona, co-founder of Saving Devore Dogs. Hannah Carl / Shutterstock.com Talking to the San Bernardino Sun, Cardona reveals that one dog seized by San Bernardino County from the dog rescue, named “Checkers” was emaciated. Cardona described Checkers as “literally like looking at a skeleton with skin over it”. She also noted that the Woofy Acres site in Pinon Hills “was in the middle of the desert. I don’t know how these dogs didn’t die.” Earlier this year, Bedford and Woofy Acres made headlines after they were accused of abandoning 32 dogs at Shanderin Kennels, a Rowland Heights dog grooming and boarding business. “We don’t understand how anyone would think this is OK,” Shanderin Kennels Vet Tech Samantha Redline tells KTLA in February. “We heard that she did this to two other facilities.” KTLA also reveals that Bedford owed the dog grooming and boarding business nearly $40,000 for the amount spent on the dogs she abandoned there. After Bedford abandoned the dogs, local shelters were forced to take the responsibility and find a solution that did not involve returning them to Woofy Acres. A Reddit thread further exposes Bedford and how Woofy Acres “specialized in pulling drama dogs – biters, big aggression, big fear, non-adoptable dogs.” Furthermore, the San Bernardino Sun reveals that Woofy Acres has a “delinquent status” with the state Attorney’s General Office, meaning they cannot solicit nor disburse donation.

Not Looking So Confident, Kamala...

Man, This Election Stinks, Says ...

Haitian migrants have officially been cemented as one of the preferred political props in America’s culture wars. Back in 2021, they were portrayed as victims of “racist” Border Patrol agents who were photographed “whipping” them while on horseback. The media ran with that story and had a line of politicians and pundits ready to add fuel to the fire by evoking our national history of slavery. For the left, this was another story confirming its claims about anti-black racism. A report came out the following year that stated agents didn’t whip anyone during the confrontation at the border. One agent who was investigated at the time won an award for his service earlier this year. The same people who are quick to generalize and stigmatize when mocking a foe can’t start squealing like stuck pigs when the same standard is applied to them. The latest political scandal involving Haitians is unfolding far from the southern border. Their role in the public imagination this time around is that of pet-eating savages terrorizing a small Midwestern town, not impoverished strivers victimized by racist law enforcement agents. Social media has been flooded with accusations that Haitians in Springfield, Ohio, have been stealing and eating pets. Conservatives on X (formerly Twitter) have amplified the rumors, and President Trump brought them up at his debate with Kamala Harris on Tuesday. And just like the fake “whipping” controversy at the border, the current controversy obscures real issues in that community and important questions we should be asking about broader issues related to immigration and assimilation. These issues are complex, and they are made even more challenging when there is a higher demand for explosive — and at times, unsubstantiated — claims than sober policy analysis. Residents in Springfield have accused Haitians of causing accidents on the roads, while a PBS profile on the city featured an employer complimenting his Haitian employees on their work ethic and a church where Haitian families keep the pews from being completely empty. These firsthand accounts certainly paint a much more nuanced picture of life in Springfield than memes of pet theft and consumption. Make no mistake, there are real issues here, especially when close to 20,000 people move in a short time to a small city of 60,000. Any municipality that grows that quickly will have its resources, including public services and infrastructure, stressed and stretched. That type of rapid growth would be complicated even more if the new arrivals were people from another country who speak a different language and have unfamiliar — or even backward, by local standards — cultural practices. The people who have lived there have the right to ask questions and demand answers from their elected representatives. Change is never easy, especially when people feel they are being “replaced” by a new favored group. You can see this dynamic at play in cities where “gentrification” is frequently derided as an intentional attempt to displace poor and working-class black residents with wealthy white newcomers. You can also see it in small towns when immigrants from Central America or the Caribbean move into poor and working-class white neighborhoods. The challenges facing the people in Springfield are one issue. How they are discussed in the media, by politicians, and by social commentators is another. And right now, one question we should all be asking ourselves is how common a particular behavior must be among a group of people to describe the entire population generally. For example, let’s say five people — all black Haitians — in Springfield actually have eaten cats this year. Let’s imagine another five — all white Ohioans — have performed sex acts on dogs. Would the same people claiming Haitians are devouring pets approve of corporate media outlets and political commentators running stories about the threat people from Ohio pose to puppies? Perhaps they would. But given the sensitivities of most Americans — regardless of color or political party — I doubt it. I certainly suspect the “based” conservatives who have been gleefully sharing cat memes would have a very different reaction if Ohioans were being stereotyped on CNN with explosive claims based on shaky — if any — evidence. As a Christian who engages in social commentary, I always try to practice the biblical principle of impartial judgment. Matthew 7:2 says: For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. This is not always easy, but I think it’s a good way to guard against the worst aspects of collectivism — both unwarranted pride in my “tribe” as well as unwarranted contempt for “outsiders.” Most Americans, regardless of their background, are incredibly sensitive. People like Laura Loomer, one of President Trump’s most vocal surrogates, have no problem with stereotypes and inflammatory rhetoric as long as they are not aimed at their identity group. I understand the impulse. People who want to be judged as individuals often indulge in group guilt with those they don’t know, understand, or like. But this type of hypocrisy is unsustainable. The same people who are quick to generalize and stigmatize when mocking a foe can’t start squealing like stuck pigs when the same standard is applied to them. If there is one political animal that needs to meet a quick death, it’s anyone who has the tongue of a lion and the ears of a lamb.

Bill Gates has recently hinted that he would like to see online speech shaped to curb misinformation by ensuring that people are properly identified online — which would require digital ID. “We see it every single day right now in China. They have a version of digital ID in order to do anything online, and I mean everything. All banking, commerce, jobs all tied to a single online ID that the government gives you. And if they decide that you’re saying the wrong things, or they want to turn off that digital ID — you have no recourse,” Peter Gietl, managing editor for Blaze News' Return and Frontier Magazine tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight.” Peterson is rightfully concerned. “How do we cut this off at the pass?” He asks Gietl, adding, “and maybe even before we get there, isn’t it already the case that we sort of have digital IDs?” “We all can be traced, tracked, and presumably punished if some powerful entity wanted to,” he adds. “Yes, that absolutely exists,” Gietl answers, noting that credit card companies have been building a digital ID structure in the background. “They haven’t had the ability or the will yet to roll it out in a way of like, ‘We’re going to start censoring people and tying this ID to everything that you do on the internet.’” “And that’s what’s disturbing about what Gates is advocating. He’s describing being tied to a single ID to use the internet, and that would make it much more easy to track people and control, even though they do track and generally know what you’re doing online,” he adds. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has been a major force behind the push for digital ID, even rolling it out in Africa as a digital ID pass. “Unfortunately, a lot of the really scary stuff they kind of test in Africa because they know that the media doesn’t really report on these things, and it’s a great way to see how it operates in the society,” Gietl explains.
