Rapper Snoop Dogg has seemingly reversed course after criticizing modern animated movies for their gay messaging.

The hip-hop legend, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, recently criticized the “Toy Story” spin-off movie “Lightyear” after his grandson expressed confusion over a lesbian plotline.

‘This is a program that we’ve been doing for years where we involve kids, and these are things that kids have questions about.’

“Well, my grandson, in the middle of the movie, is like, ‘Papa Snoop, how did she have a baby with a woman? She’s a woman,'” he recalled.

He said he remembered thinking, “Oh s**t, I didn’t come in for this s**t. I just came to watch the goddamn movie.'”

After making the comments on the “It’s Giving” podcast in August, Snoop has since decided to launch a song through his cartoon network to reach out to gay parents and their children.

Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ thang

The YouTube channel Doggyland – Kids Songs & Nursery Rhymes, which has 1.26 million subscribers, posted a song on October 13 titled “Love Is Love.”

Cartoon dogs sing lyrics like, “Our parents are different / No two are the same / But the one thing that’s for certain / Is the love won’t change,” while same-sex (animal) couples are shown on screen. Snoop Dogg also performs a verse in the song.

Comments on the video are turned off. The comments were also turned off for a subsequent podcast on Snoop’s main channel, SnoopDoggTV (10.9 million subscribers), announcing a partnership with gay activist group GLAAD.

GLAAD tidings

Snoop spoke with singer Jeremy Beloate, a member of the rap mogul’s record label Death Row Records, whom he discovered on the singing show “The Voice.”

The two began the broadcast with a joint statement, saying, “It’s Spirit Day. Go purple now. October 16. Stop the bullying to support LGBTQ youth. Let’s go, y’all.”

This was the last mention of “LGBTQ” kids, and the word “gay” is not even said during the podcast. Beloate spoke on being bullied for being a singer when he was a child and said he became friends with a gay couple in New York he babysat for. Beloate said the couple kept coming up with excuses to support his budding career, and he really appreciated that despite never being exposed to a gay couple before.

Love-bombing

Although the podcast was tame content-wise, Snoop found time to insert lengthy talking points like, “It’s a beautiful thing that kids can have parents of all walks and be able to be shown love, to be taught what love is, because hate is taught and so is love.”

He continued, “And I think that being able to have parents of all walks of life, whether it’s two fathers, two mothers, whatever it is, love is the key. And I think these kids are being loved by these great parents that are, you know, showing them an example of what family is.”

The rapper also spoke on his “Love Is Love” song, saying that music is a beautiful “bridge to bringing understanding.”

“This is a program that we’ve been doing for years where we involve kids, and these are things that kids have questions about. So now hopefully we can help answer these questions and, you know, help them to live a happy life and understand that love is love,” he explained.

Armed and inclusive

In a statement to Variety, Snoop tried to connect his typical gangster motif to the idea of gay activism.

“At the end of the day, it’s all about love — that’s what we’re teachin’ the kids with ‘Love Is Love.’ Partnering with GLAAD for Spirit Day just felt right, because spreading love and respect for everybody is what real gangstas do,” the rapper claimed.

“We’re showin’ the next generation that kindness is cool, inclusion is powerful, and love always wins,” he added.

Snoop had asked in August why movies had to show gay relationships to children, saying, “It threw me for a loop.”

“I’m like, ‘What part of the movie was this?’ These are kids. We have to show that at this age? They’re going to ask questions! I don’t have the answer.”

Snoop apparently has since come up with the answers.

My first year in college, I was super into music. I played guitar and joined a campus band and went to see other bands every chance I got.

But I was too young to go to bars, so I often had to sneak into shows or find other ways to watch and learn from other guitarists. I desperately needed a fake ID.

In Portland, we have the recent phenomenon of people not having license plates on their cars. Shouldn’t everyone have license plates on their cars?

When I returned home that summer, I went to great lengths to get an official Oregon state ID with a birth year on it that would make me 21. Not a cheap fake one. A real ID. I possibly committed a felony in the process.

So for the next two years, I saw a lot of bands and musicians. In my mind, access to live music was definitely worth the risk.

Judgment day

When I think back to this episode in my life, I’m shocked I had the nerve to pull this off. I not only misrepresented myself on official documents, but I straight-up lied to my local DMV!

Sure, it was the 1980s. So it was much harder to check. But still …

I also imagine what would have happened if I’d been caught and ended up in front of a judge. How would I have defended myself?

I would probably have just told the truth: I was in a band. I needed to see other bands. Music was my great love. I wasn’t doing it for the alcohol.

And how would the judge have reacted?

He would have looked at me, a nice kid, in college, not an actual criminal.

He would have been older, my parents’ age, most likely male, most likely white, like me.

He would have probably had kids my age. Maybe a kid who was into music.

And he would have thought about his own life and the time he snuck in somewhere, maybe to an R-rated movie or a local burlesque show.

And if I were respectful and showed remorse, I probably would not have been dealt with too severely. Probation, community service. No real harm. No real foul.

Back to the future

But then I think: What would happen in that same situation now? What if my college student self lied to the DMV in 2025? And got caught?

For starters, the judge could be of either sex. And might be of any race.

If the judge weren’t white, there would be the danger the judge would look at me and think: “white privilege.” Or the judge would have other feelings of resentment, since our media and societal messaging relentlessly emphasize all the unfair advantages white people have.

And being male and aggressively pursuing a dream like “becoming a good guitarist” might annoy a female judge. Men aggressively pursuing things was part of the reason women have been held back throughout history.

Also, such a crime would seem much more serious. Our current society demands constant proof and verification of our identities at all times.

No, in 2025, you would be dealing with state authorities that, at best, didn’t like you and, at worst, considered you a threat.

There would be no “boys will be boys” leniency. This was the GOVERNMENT you were dealing with. Which is not your friend. And is not your family. THE GOVERNMENT doesn’t love you.

Love is love

It sounds weird to say that a government “loves” or “doesn’t love” its citizens.

And yet, when I was 16 and filling out my first 1040 tax form for my after-school gas-station job, I remember the feeling I had for the people I was giving my tax money to. That feeling was a kind of love.

I didn’t mind paying my taxes. I understood the concept. We all give money to the government. And it builds roads and bridges. It employs school teachers, firemen, the police. It tries to take care of the citizens.

In those days, the state taxes in Oregon were so low, it was almost a joke. When I mailed my tax form, I imagined it arriving at some modest building, surrounded by mountains and trees.

I pictured our “state employees” as a small cadre of park ranger types and a handful of nice ladies who worked in the office. That’s how sparsely populated our state was.

If the state of Oregon sent you a letter, it was probably a notice telling you when deer hunting season began.

My taxes also paid for the Coast Guard, which bravely rescued fishermen from sinking boats. And the local sheriff, who, if he busted your high school keg party, didn’t come down on you too hard, because he used to throw keg parties too.

In other words, I didn’t mind paying my taxes because I felt loved by these people. I felt loved by my federal government too. Didn’t it build the national parks and send people to the moon? And make cars safer? And issue cool postage stamps honoring Elvis and the Beatles?

From what I could see, the main concern of all these people was keeping me safe. And making everyone’s life a little better.

In this way, my country loved me. Maybe not in a particular way. But in a general way. Weren’t we one nation, under God, indivisible, and all that?

Weren’t we all in this together?

The unloved generation

So what do young people think now? Do they believe their country loves them? I kind of doubt it. But I don’t know. I’m not 16 anymore.

One way a country can show love for its people is by being consistent, like enforcing the law the same for everyone, so that everybody feels valued.

In Portland, we have the recent phenomenon of people not having license plates on their cars. Shouldn’t everyone have license plates on their cars?

This is just one small thing. But I see it every day. Cars, driving around, without front or back license plates. Shouldn’t the police stop them and give them a ticket for “lack of license plates”?

But the police don’t do that. City officials have reduced their numbers and limited their authority. This has caused crime to increase. So the police don’t have time to stop people for lack of license plates.

So now, if you get in an accident with someone without license plates, the car can just drive away, and there’s nothing you can do. This makes people feel helpless. And distrustful. And unprotected. And unloved.

Turning Japanese

I visited Tokyo recently. The Japanese are very strange, with their complicated language and unique culture.

But one thing I felt very strongly. Their country loved them. You could feel it in the air.

They had corruption and politics and all the usual human problems. But overall, there was obvious love. You saw it everywhere.

The government gave old people jobs to make them feel useful. It built incredible subways and infrastructure to make workers’ lives easier.

People were quick to come to each other’s aid. They respected each other’s property. They didn’t litter. They didn’t steal. They treated each other with great kindness and consideration.

Their country loved them. And because of that, they felt inspired to love each other.

It’s an odd point to make, I know. But just imagine if your country loved you. Wouldn’t that be nice? Wouldn’t that be the best feeling in the world?

Jay Jones, the Democrats’ nominee for Virginia attorney general, has become a general travesty. Disqualified by his own words and actions, he keeps running while Democrats refuse to call him off. Apparently, they still think he deserves the office.

On Aug. 8, 2022, Jones, who had recently resigned from the Virginia House of Delegates after representing Norfolk, texted Republican state delegate Carrie Coyner about tributes to former legislator Joe Johnson Jr. One tribute came from then-Virginia House Speaker Todd Gilbert. Jones dismissed Johnson’s centrism and Gilbert’s praise with crude contempt. His texts quickly turned menacing.

Might Jones’ first prosecution be against himself? Doubtful. But how could he prosecute others for the same vile behavior he once celebrated?

Jones called Gilbert “that POS.” He wrote, “If those guys die before me, I will go to their funerals to piss on their graves.” He added that if he could shoot Hitler, Pol Pot, and Gilbert but had only two bullets, Gilbert would get “two bullets to the head” — “every time,” he said.

He accused Gilbert and his wife, Jennifer, of “breeding little fascists” and wished that Gilbert’s children would “die in their mother’s arms.” Coyner urged him to stop. He should have heeded her advice.

Half-hearted apologies

Jones has tried to apologize since his texts surfaced. At the time, he showed no hesitation or doubt about his vile remarks. For more than three years, he expressed no remorse until the prospect of consequences forced his hand — plenty of time to craft an apology and even longer to locate a conscience.

This episode isn’t Jones’ first disqualifying act. Coyner recalled Jones once saying that “if a few [policemen] died, that they would move on, not shooting people, not killing people.”

In January 2022, Jones was convicted of driving 116 mph — 46 mph over the limit. A court fined him $1,500 and ordered 1,000 hours of community service. He spent half of that time working for his own political action committee, Meet Our Moment.

The attorney general serves as Virginia’s top cop and prosecutor. According to the commonwealth’s website:

The Office of the Attorney General provides legal services to the Commonwealth’s agencies, boards, commissions, colleges and universities. They are the Commonwealth’s law firm, defending the interests of Virginians and Virginia government and also work with law enforcement throughout the Commonwealth to prepare for emerging public safety threats and to promote successful, secure communities.

Jones’ record conflicts directly with the job he seeks. Voters might ask how Jones can protect Virginians from crimes he’s committed himself? The statute of limitations on threats is one year for a misdemeanor. But Virginia has no statute of limitations on felonies.

Might his first prosecution be against himself? Doubtful. But how could he prosecute others for the same vile behavior he once celebrated — or those who endanger police officers, as he once suggested was necessary?

Unaccountable stupidity

A state legislator’s role differs sharply from that of the attorney general. A legislator’s foolishness, however damaging, remains limited to the district that elected him and can be tempered by the rest of the General Assembly. The attorney general, by contrast, represents all Virginians — including law enforcement and the entire state government. His mistakes ripple through every level of public service and civic life.

Virginians pay the price

But Jones and his army of Virginia Democrats think otherwise. Their refusal to remove him from the ticket speaks volumes. It shows they believe, just as Jones does, that he’s entitled to be attorney general — a stance as damning as his own text messages.

Jones’ desire to be attorney general and his support from Democrats has outweighed his lack of objective qualifications for the job. Virginians should not have to bear the price of their vile partisan game.

In case you weren’t aware, right now a giant interstellar object roughly the size of Manhattan is hurtling through our solar system. Dubbed 3I/ATLAS, scientists speculate that it’s nothing more than a natural comet or rogue planetary fragment. Calculations suggest that it poses no threat to Earth or her citizens and will miss us by millions of miles.

But Harvard astronomer Avi Loeb isn’t ready to dismiss 3I/ATLAS as a harmless astronomical entity. There are too many strange “coincidences” surrounding it.

Loeb’s theory?

Aliens.

On a recent episode of “The Glenn Beck Program,” Loeb told Glenn the four reasons he believes this is no ordinary space object.

The first reason 3I/ATLAS gives Loeb pause is its gargantuan size. 3I/ATLAS is significantly larger than its two predecessors, ‘Oumuamua and 2I/Borisov — a million times more massive than ‘Oumuamua and a thousand times more massive than Borisov.

“There is not enough rocky material in interstellar space to supply such a giant one once per decade to the inner solar system. We would expect it once per 10,000 years or so,” Loeb says.

The second reason he believes 3I/ATLAS could be a UAP is because according to Hubble Telescope images, the light the object emits is pointing “towards the sun,” as opposed to comets, where light points “away from the sun,” giving them a tail-like appearance.

“It’s just like seeing an animal in your back yard and everyone says, ‘Oh, it must be a street cat because it has a tail,’ but then you look at the photograph of this animal and you see that the tail is coming from its forehead,” Loeb says.

Reason number three is that “the trajectory of [3I/ATLAS] is aligned to within five degrees with the ecliptic plane of the planets around the sun.” In simple terms, it’s moving along the same “highway” as our solar system’s planets — an uncommon trajectory for interstellar objects.

“The chance of that is one in 500,” says Loeb, who says an alien life force would need to take this route if it wanted to do “a reconnaissance mission.”

Lastly, 3I/ATLAS’ arrival time is exceedingly peculiar. It’s passing through our solar system at a unique moment, coming very close to Mars, Venus, and Jupiter — a rarity given that these planets are constantly moving. You’d need perfect timing to line up near all three.

“That’s another coincidence that might indicate fine-tuning,” Loeb tells Glenn.

Although experts attribute 3I/ATLAS’ unusual traits to random chance, Loeb argues that the odds of such coincidences are “one in a million.”

To hear more of his theory, watch the clip above.

A woman who suffered a medical episode fell unconscious and was killed by four dogs in her home, Florida police said.

The boyfriend of 38-year-old Monica L. Emerson called police to report that he had found her unconscious on the floor of her home on Spruce Street in Daytona Beach on Oct. 10. He said he went to her home after being unable to contact her by phone.

‘Four dogs were observed running freely within the home: one large adult male, mixed breed (the father), and three adult offspring.’

“Upon entering the home, he located her unresponsive on the floor and immediately contacted emergency services,” reads a statement from the Daytona Beach Police Department.

Police responded and found multiple injuries on Emerson’s body that were consistent with an animal attack. They determined that none of the injuries were caused by human involvement or the result of foul play. The injuries included cuts to her eyes, her lips, and her left arm.

“Four dogs were observed running freely within the home: one large adult male, mixed breed (the father), and three adult offspring,” police said.

The woman died at the scene.

A preliminary investigation found that Emerson was fatally attacked by the dogs after losing consciousness. The victim’s boyfriend said she was epileptic and took medicine twice a day.

Police did not indicate who owned the dogs.

Animal Control Services took custody of the dogs, and they were transported to the Volusia County Animal Control Services. The dogs will be held for 10 days before they’re euthanized.

Police said the investigation was active and ongoing.

At a time when conservatives are calling to divest from the Middle East and confront crises at home, Gaza is the last place America should pour time, treasure, or troops. What national interest do we have in defending a territory run by the most violent Islamists on earth?

Thanks to a coordinated online propaganda campaign — part cyber-jihad, part influencer echo chamber — some on the right have begun parroting communist and Islamist talking points about a “Gaza genocide.” Voices like Tucker Carlson now argue that Israel’s defense partnerships no longer justify U.S. involvement. From an America First perspective, that sounds reasonable: fewer entangling alliances, less foreign aid. But if Israel supposedly offers us nothing, what on earth does Gaza offer?

If we’re serious about an America First foreign policy, we should begin disentangling from the Middle East altogether.

On October 13, the entire communist world — and its pseudo-right allies — got what it wanted. Israel withdrew from Gaza’s populated areas and exchanged 2,000 terrorists for 20 hostages, trusting Hamas to disarm.

Peace in our time, right? More like no Jews, no news.

Hamas immediately reneged, of course, refusing to return most hostage remains and launching a campaign of public executions. The largest slaughter of Muslims in the Arab world wasn’t committed by Jews, but by other Muslims. Remove the Jews, and Gaza doesn’t grow peaceful — it turns on itself. Yet without Jews in the headlines, global media suddenly loses interest in reporting on “genocide.”

Once the internal purges were done, Hamas returned to its favorite target: infidels. On Sunday, terrorists emerged from tunnels in Rafah and attacked Israeli forces, killing two IDF soldiers. Snipers fired on Israeli positions near Jabalia. At the same time, Hamas used Gaza’s hospitals — Al-Shifa, Al-Ahli, Al-Aqsa, and Nasser — as makeshift detention and interrogation centers, confirming what Israel long claimed: Those “civilian” sites serve as terror bases.

Israeli troops now sit exposed, ordered to hold positions but forbidden to act pre-emptively. They’re surrounded by tunnels and terrorists, trapped in another international “ceasefire” that only empowers killers.

Gaza’s terminal disease

The “Free Palestine” lie has collapsed under its own weight. Rebuilding Gaza under Arab control isn’t just naïve — it’s suicidal. No society so steeped in religious violence can sustain peace or self-government. Hamas is not an aberration; it’s a symptom of a deeper rot in Islamic political culture.

So why is President Trump involving America in this mess through the so-called 20-point plan? For a movement that claims to oppose endless wars and foreign aid, the right’s silence on this scheme is baffling. The Pentagon has already confirmed plans to send 200 U.S. soldiers to the Gaza border. If Israel defending itself against Iran supposedly meant “Americans dying for Israel,” what exactly do we call Americans dying to protect Hamas from Israel?

The British blueprint

This entire plan was crafted by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair — the same man who recently declared Britain must become “a nation of global citizens.” No wonder it leads to deeper entanglement, not withdrawal. Once again, globalist bureaucrats are trying to pull America into Middle Eastern “peacekeeping,” which always means nation-building with American blood and money.

If we’re serious about an America First foreign policy, we should begin disentangling from the region altogether — starting by weaning Israel off U.S. weapons systems so it can act freely without American political interference. But under no circumstances should we send troops or tax dollars to Gaza. Peacekeeping there isn’t in our interest. In that part of the world, “peace” means paralysis, and paralysis means death.

The wolf and the lamb

President Trump’s desire to see the “wolf dwell with the lamb” is noble, even biblical. But Isaiah’s prophecy won’t be fulfilled through U.N. peacekeepers or Pentagon deployments. It won’t come through Islam, whose theology demands submission, not reconciliation.

Let Gaza be the Arab world’s problem. Let Israel defend itself without our restraint. And let America finally wake up to the rising threat of political Islam — in our own communities, not 6,000 miles away.
