When you work for The Dispatchit feels like a faux pas to write about political news in which a dog features prominently before Jonah Goldberg has had a chance to weigh in.
Dogs are famously a passion of his and so this feels like his “beat,” not unlike how populists rhetorically soiling themselves online is mine. When Trump-worshipping influencers like Laura Loomer or “Catturd” post something wacky on social media, that’s my turf, buddy. I call dibs.
When a vice presidential short-lister reveals that she once shot a puppy in the face, the dibs properly belong to Jonah.
But I’m going to take on the subject anyway, partly because we won’t get a new G-File for another two days and partly because there es a robust “MAGAs seeing online” angle to explore here. Just not in the way that many would have expected.
