Daily Wire editor emeritus Ben Shapiro principally values a habit of telling the truth in any leader of the Republican Party. Shapiro spoke about what he values in GOP politicians in an interview with The Daily Wire on the sidelines of the Turning Point USA AmericaFest conference that ended on Sunday. “The number one thing that I would look for from any Republican leader at this point is simply telling the truth,” said Shapiro after he was asked a question on the future of Republican politics. “I think the president has a habit of doing this in sort of pithy, short versions,” Shapiro said of President Donald Trump. “He has a capacity for saying unpopular truths, which is great. We need more conservative leaders saying things that are true, even if, in the short-term, they’re not quote-unquote coalitional,” he continued, “because, again, you’re going to need to break whatever is here and you need to rebuild it stronger, and the only way to do that is with some true leadership.” Shapiro spoke on the main stage at AmericaFest on the opening night in a speech that generated headlines because of its bomb-throwing, but put forward a message on the importance of truth in politics.

And that is no victory at all. And unity without truth is no unity. It is merely solidarity in falsehood,” said Shapiro in a version of his speech posted on The Free Press. In the interview, Shapiro said that the conservative movement has drifted away from a commitment to truth as more “clowns” have come into the movement. “You have people who were not conservative, who have entered, who have brought their non-assimilated, non-conservatism into the conservative tent,” said Shapiro. “To sort of pretend that the leadership of the movement ought to be vested in people who are either brand new and don’t hold those principles or people who have abandoned the key principles that have upheld the conservative movement for the last several decades, I think, is an enormous error.” “A movement without principle is not a movement at all. It’s an agglomeration of people who are following whoever happens to be the leader that day,” he said.

Kidney disease affects roughly 10% of dogs at some point in their lives, and nutrition plays a vital role in managing the condition. The right kidney care dog food can slow disease progression and improve your dog’s quality of life significantly. At DogingtonPost, we’ve created this guide to help you navigate the complex world of kidney-friendly nutrition. You’ll learn what nutrients matter most, how to read labels correctly, and when to involve your veterinarian in dietary decisions. What Causes Kidney Disease in Dogs and How It Changes Their Nutritional Needs Common Causes and Risk Factors Kidney disease in dogs develops gradually, and understanding what triggers it helps you make better dietary choices early on. Older dogs face higher risk, but kidney problems also stem from chronic high blood pressure, urinary tract infections, certain medications, and genetic predisposition in breeds like Cocker Spaniels and Bull Terriers. Some dogs develop kidney issues after consuming foods with excessive sodium or phosphorus over years, which is why diet matters both for prevention and management. Signs Your Dog May Have Kidney Disease You’ll notice signs like increased thirst and urination, weight loss, poor appetite, vomiting, and bad breath that smells like ammonia. These symptoms appear because failing kidneys can’t filter waste effectively, allowing toxins to build up in your dog’s bloodstream. About 1 in 10 dogs will experience kidney disease during their lifetime, making this a condition many dog owners eventually face. How Kidney Disease Shifts Nutritional Requirements The moment your veterinarian diagnoses kidney disease, your dog’s nutritional requirements shift dramatically from a standard diet. Healthy dogs can tolerate higher protein levels without problems, but dogs with kidney disease need their protein carefully controlled because damaged kidneys struggle to process excess amino acids. Phosphorus becomes the enemy in kidney disease since phosphorus buildup accelerates kidney damage and weakens bones. Research shows that lower phosphorus intake helps slow disease progression, which is why prescription kidney diets target phosphorus levels between 0.5 and 0.8 grams per 1000 calories. The Role of Sodium, Hydration, and Omega-3s Sodium restriction also matters significantly because excessive sodium increases dehydration risk in kidney patients and elevates blood pressure, creating a vicious cycle of worsening kidney function. Your dog also needs higher moisture content in their food because hydration supports kidney filtration and reduces the organ’s workload. Wet foods typically contain 70 to 80 percent water, making them superior to dry kibble for kidney patients. Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil reduce kidney inflammation and slow disease progression, so quality kidney diets include meaningful amounts of EPA and DHA. Precision Over Restriction The nutritional shift isn’t about restriction alone-it’s about precision. Your dog still needs complete, balanced nutrition with high-quality, easily digestible proteins that supply essential amino acids without overwhelming damaged kidneys. Understanding these nutritional foundations prepares you to evaluate specific kidney care products and work with your veterinarian to select the right food for your dog’s stage of kidney disease. What Nutrients Your Dog Actually Needs in Kidney Care Food Protein Quality Over Protein Quantity Protein quality matters far more than protein quantity in kidney diets, and this distinction separates effective formulations from mediocre ones. Your dog needs highly digestible proteins that supply essential amino acids without overwhelming damaged kidneys, which means choosing foods with specific protein sources rather than generic meat meals. Hill’s Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care, Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NF Kidney Function, and Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Adult Renal Support all target protein levels on a dry matter basis depending on your dog’s disease stage, hitting the sweet spot where muscles stay strong but kidneys don’t struggle. Novel proteins like kangaroo, rabbit, and white fish work particularly well because dogs often tolerate them better than chicken or beef, and damaged kidneys process them more easily. Plant-based proteins are generally lower in phosphorus than animal-based proteins, which gives you another reason to examine ingredient lists closely rather than assuming any high-protein label means quality nutrition. Phosphorus Control Separates Good Kidney Diets From Wasted Money Phosphorus control separates good kidney diets from wasted money because research shows lower phosphorus intake directly slows kidney disease progression and weakens the vicious cycle of bone loss. Quality kidney diets target phosphorus levels that support kidney function, and this precision matters because even slightly elevated phosphorus accelerates damage. Sodium restriction also deserves attention since excessive sodium increases dehydration risk and elevates blood pressure simultaneously, creating compounding kidney stress. Try sodium levels between 0.4 and 1.2 grams per 1000 calories depending on your dog’s disease stage. Wet foods are genuinely superior here because they contain 70 to 80 percent water content compared to dry kibble, which means your dog stays better hydrated and their kidneys face reduced filtering burden. Adding water to dry kibble or choosing canned formulations gives your dog the hydration support they need without forcing you to abandon all dry food options. Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Inflammation Control Omega-3 fatty acids reduce kidney inflammation and slow disease progression, making them non-negotiable in quality kidney diets. Try EPA and DHA levels between 0.4 and 1.2 grams per 1000 calories for meaningful anti-inflammatory support. Antioxidants and fermentable fiber also support kidney health by helping manage waste products more effectively, though these matter less than the core nutrients. The goal isn’t perfection across dozens of nutrients but rather hitting specific targets for protein quality, phosphorus, sodium, moisture content, and omega-3s while maintaining complete and balanced nutrition for your dog’s specific disease stage. With these nutritional foundations in mind, you’re ready to evaluate actual kidney care products and learn how to read labels that reveal whether a food truly meets these standards or simply markets itself as kidney-friendly without delivering the nutrients your dog needs. Selecting the Right Kidney Diet for Your Dog Reading Labels and Understanding Phosphorus Targets Ingredient labels on kidney care foods reveal whether manufacturers actually deliver on their promises or simply market generic formulations with kidney-friendly claims. Start with the guaranteed analysis section, which shows protein, fat, fiber, and ash percentages on an as-fed basis. Convert these to dry matter values by dividing each percentage by the food’s dry matter content, then compare against your veterinarian’s targets for your dog’s specific disease stage. A food claiming to be kidney-friendly but listing phosphorus above 0.8 grams per 1000 calories fails to meet evidence-based standards, regardless of marketing language. Avoid budget brands that use preservatives, artificial flavors, and fillers, since these stress damaged kidneys unnecessarily. Choosing Quality Protein Sources Named protein sources like kangaroo, rabbit, white fish, or turkey indicate higher digestibility and better amino acid profiles for damaged kidneys compared to generic meat meals. Novel proteins work particularly well because dogs often tolerate them better than chicken or beef, and damaged kidneys process them more easily. Hill’s Prescription Diet k/d Kidney Care, Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NF Kidney Function, and Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Adult Renal Support all publish complete nutritional information on their websites, making label comparison straightforward. These prescription formulations target protein levels on a dry matter basis that hit the sweet spot where muscles stay strong but kidneys don’t struggle. Prioritizing Hydration Through Food Selection Wet foods deserve preference because their 70 to 80 percent water content automatically supports hydration better than dry kibble, though you can add water to dry formulations if your dog prefers that texture. Sodium levels restricted in renal diets help prevent dehydration risk and blood pressure elevation simultaneously. Higher moisture content reduces your dog’s kidney filtering burden over time, making wet formulations genuinely superior for kidney patients despite higher upfront costs. Managing the Transition Process Your veterinarian should guide the transition process because individual dogs respond differently to dietary changes, and kidney disease progression affects how strict restrictions need to be. A gradual two-week transition starting with 5 percent new food and increasing by roughly 10 to 20 percent every two days minimizes nausea and feeding aversion that often accompanies kidney disease. If your dog refuses the new diet after two weeks, ask your veterinarian about toppers like FortiFlora or low-sodium broth, nausea-reducing medications, or alternative kidney formulations before assuming your dog won’t accept therapeutic nutrition. Monitoring Your Dog’s Response and Adjusting Blood work showing kidney values like BUN, creatinine, and phosphorus levels should inform how aggressively you restrict nutrients, since early kidney disease sometimes tolerates higher protein than advanced stages. Monitor appetite, hydration, weight, vomiting, and diarrhea closely during and after transition, reporting any concerning changes immediately rather than waiting for your next scheduled visit. If your dog loses significant weight or stops eating despite trying multiple strategies, discuss feeding tubes or prescription appetite stimulants with your veterinarian, since maintaining nutrition matters more than achieving perfect dietary restrictions. Final Thoughts Choosing the right kidney care dog food requires understanding your dog’s specific disease stage, reading labels carefully, and working closely with your veterinarian to monitor progress. The foundation rests on three pillars: controlled phosphorus levels that slow disease progression, high-quality digestible proteins that maintain muscle without overwhelming damaged kidneys, and adequate hydration through moisture-rich foods. Omega-3 fatty acids reduce inflammation while sodium restriction prevents dehydration and blood pressure complications. Schedule a conversation with your veterinarian about your dog’s kidney values and disease stage, since early-stage kidney disease sometimes tolerates higher protein than advanced stages. Ask your vet for specific phosphorus, protein, and sodium targets tailored to your dog’s condition rather than applying generic kidney diet guidelines. Request recommendations for prescription formulations like Hill’s Prescription Diet k/d, Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NF, or Royal Canin Renal Support, all of which publish complete nutritional information online for easy comparison. Regular monitoring separates dogs that thrive on kidney care dog food from those that decline despite dietary changes. Blood work showing BUN, creatinine, and phosphorus levels should guide how strictly you restrict nutrients as your dog’s kidney function changes. Many dogs live significantly longer on properly formulated kidney diets than on regular dog food, and DogingtonPost provides practical care tips and expert advice to support responsible dog ownership throughout your dog’s kidney health journey.

Global business leader Hilary Fordwich, who won the praise of President Donald Trump for defending his foreign policy agenda, lambasted the growing anti-Semitic hatred against Israel being fomented by the world media. Fordwich, who was one of the delegates on the Newsmax Mission to Israel trip attended by MRC staff in August, sat down for an interview with MRC Business during the 2025 Jbiz Expo event organized by the Orthodox Jewish Chamber of Commerce in Atlantic City, New Jersey. MRC addressed Fordwich’s stern rebuke of the student-led Oxford Union during an interview with Sky News Australia for having the audacity to declare Israel as being a greater threat to regional stability than the terrorist state of Iran (yes, really). As Fordwich told MRC, this case was emblematic of a “disturbing trend” that is being driven in large part by “jealously” of the success of the Jewish people over the course of history, despite many hostile nations’s attempts to destroy them. Fordwich pointed the “politically incorrect” factoid out that “Ashkenazi Jewish people are amongst the most intelligent in the world. So I think Jewish intelligence, Jewish drive — basically doing the right thing by business — has been so successful; I think there’s a lot of jealousy in the world.” This is not just conjecture. A research paper published by the University of Utah’s Department of Anthropology found that “Ashkenazi Jews have the highest average IQ of any ethnic group, combined with an unusual cognitive profile.” Fordwich went deeper, arguing that religious hatred is also a fundamental factor in why the Jewish people are targeted so much today, such as what is furthered by radical Islam and revisionist interpretations of Christian theology by the anti-Semitic Groyper movement on social media: I also see the root and evil of a lot of religions. There’s a lot of religions that have wanted the death of other religions. And I think it’s fine to have your own personal beliefs, but I think it’s very wicked. As Fordwich concluded, “I think historically, you’ve seen so many religions be evil. No. Have your beliefs. Believe in your god and don’t kill other people.” Fordwich then turned her sights on the leftist reporters and anchors that have done nothing but regurgitate Hamas propaganda to continuously smear the state of Israel following the horrific genocide perpetrated by the terrorist group on October 7, 2023: “I want to ask every one of those anchors, are they either an idiot or have they just gotten amnesia?” She continued her excoriation of the media: Do they not know what happened on October 7? So maybe they should learn about not only October 7 but about Hamas. Not only was it the militants that went in and massacred innocent people and committed atrocities. But when I was in Israel, we actually saw that Hamas instructions that were to burn and that were to rape. And I don’t remember military history where you actually see those kinds of military instructions. That’s number one. Number two: What we also learned was a truth — was that after the wave of militants there was a wave of [Gaza] civilians that went in for fun to rape, and to burn, and to kill and murder. Do you think the media care about any of this? Not likely. Fordwich argued that this is all a result of “media amnesia” and “media selective reporting that they’ve just chosen to ignore facts. They’ve chosen to ignore what is now recent history?” And “Why,” asked Fordwich rhetorically. “It’s anti-Semitic and I think it’s very sad. There is no other reason other than that people have poor judgment. They have warped values and their particular religion may have taught them that they should be saying this and doing this.” Fordwich also reasoned that the vast hatred against the Israeli state is also being stirred by generational brain rot, particularly amongst Palestininian children. “I feel actually sorry for little Palestinian children,” Fordwich lamented. “When they grow up — everyone that they love and everyone that they trust has been telling them to do and telling them that they can become a martyr for committing such atrocities. So you almost can’t blame people that are being brainwashed since birth.”  But it’s not just Palestinian children that are being brainwashed. It’s the next generation in developed countries such as the U.S. and the U.K. as well. Fordwich’s rebuke of Oxford Union is a case-in-point.  When asked what strategies could be implemented to reverse the growing resentment against the Jewish people and Israel amongst young people, Fordwich reasoned that leaders and educators should meet them where they’re at on “social media” and capitalize on the “effectiveness of soundbites.” “When you hear people chanting, ‘From the river to the sea,’ I don’t believe they know which river, which sea and I don’t think they know their history,” Fordwich argued. “But it’s easy to remember and it’s easy to chant. What is Israel chanting right now? I don’t know their chant and I know my history.”  Fordwich pointed MRC Business back to the Balfour Declaration of 1917. “You can actually see that this is not a recent phenomenon. This was many, many years ago where there needed to be land carved out for Jewish people. Anti-Semitism has been pervasive for many centuries — for longer than that, even.” Her advice for Israel and the Jewish people was that they “need to have effective soundbites and more effective social media. And with the brilliance and the brains in Israel, that’s something that I think that the Jewish population and the Israeli leadership should focus on.” Fordwich likened this strategy to the marketing campaign that drove American voters to elect President Dwight Eisenhower in 1952,  Bill Clinton in 1992 and Trump in 2016. “Always remember that President Eisenhower was elected simply because Americans wore a button that said, ‘I Like Ike.’ President Trump was elected because he said, ‘Make America Great Again,’ and Bill Clinton was elected because he said, ‘It’s the economy, stupid!’ We can remember those, why — because they were soundbites.” Israel, as Fordwich concluded, “needs to think ‘I Like Ike,’ and think, ‘What is our soundbite comparable to refute, ‘From the river to the sea,’ and that is meaningful, is historically accurate and that would help Israel.” 

Few things better illustrate why there has been a steep decline in the quality of writing at The New Yorker under the editorship of David Remnick than his absurd reaction to finding out that a letter supposedly written by Jeffrey Epstein to convicted serial sex offender Larry Nassar which implicated President Donald Trump in something bad has been determined to be fake. On Tuesday, Remnick revealed just how sadly his obsession over his Orange Whale has overwhelmed him to the extent that he has laughably lost whatever sense of rationality he might have left as you can see in "Trump, Epstein, and the Women." For the first several paragraphs the furious Remnick hurled charge after charge against Trump before he touched on the supposedly damning Epstein letter to Nassar: On Tuesday, as the Justice Department continued to release the avalanche of documents and photographs known collectively as the Epstein files, some, but hardly all, major news outlets reported on a letter purportedly written by Jeffrey Epstein to Larry Nassar, the former U.S.A. Gymnastics team doctor who abused hundreds of female athletes and pleaded guilty in 2018 to seven counts of first-degree criminal sexual assault. The letter was postmarked August 13, 2019, three days after Epstein killed himself in his Manhattan jail cell. The handwritten text reflects contempt for Trump and hints darkly about his past. While all three men shared a “love of young, nubile girls,” Epstein supposedly wrote, and the President “loved to ‘grab snatch,’ ” only Epstein and Nassar had “ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system. Life is unfair.” The existence of a letter was cited in a 2023 dispatch by the Associated Press. But is it real? There is no reason to believe that it is. Julie K. Brown, the Miami Herald investigative reporter who has been on the Epstein beat for many years, wrote on X, “This is suspect to me, largely because Jeffrey Epstein didn’t know how to spell. It doesn’t seem to fit with the way he wrote, either. Plus it really looks like a woman’s handwriting.” The Justice Department later announced on X that “the FBI has confirmed this alleged letter from Jeffrey Epstein to Larry Nassar is FAKE.” It appears that even Remnick accepts that the Epstein letter is fake. So did that cause him to even reconsider his charges against Trump? Nope. And here is Remnick's twisted rationale: "The case for this President’s indecency hardly requires putting a dubious letter into evidence." So fake but accurate? Remnick then digs himself even deeper into a hole by claiming that we don't really need no stinkin' documents since he somehow knows that Trump is guilty... of something: ...As we continue to sift daily through the detritus of Trump’s accumulating record and biography, we keep living with the notion that somehow, somewhere, there will appear a document or a detail so grotesque, so damning, that the country will finally rise as one to declare this Presidency at an end. Just one more instance of sexual assault; of cruel and illegal deportations; of financial self-dealing. Just one more indulgence of racism and antisemitism in the MAGA camp; one more outrageous insult hurled against a foreign leader or a female reporter; one more violation of constitutional and institutional norms. What has driven Remnick's latest descent into TDS darkness has been the fact that like the rest of the left, he had placed his fervent hopes on the released Epstein files implicating Trump in misdeeds. Unfortunately for poor Remnick the Epstein files revealed no such thing which appears to have caused his absurd embrace with sheer irrationality. The upside to Remnick's irrationality is that it has inspired widespread mirth such as this:   The Nassar letter—genuine or not, it almost doesn't matter in the end!.... Remnick goes all Hitler Diaries on us. https://t.co/llFlyWYm28 — Mickey Kaus (@kausmickey) December 24, 2025
