The vast majority of cattle ranchers voted for the MAGA shitheads. I have sympathy for the cattle suffering from the screwworm and wish they could stampede the shit out of the ranchers.
Pretty sure its just family and local ranchers getting fucked. Isnt this just the same as Walmart taking advantage of every economic downturn to kill competition or buy them out?
even getting screwed over they stll believed he will bail them out.
If you're in the states and you're worth less than 50 million, we will all be living in third world poverty, too soon.
I think Trump will create the worlds best third world country. They'll all be talking about how good a job he did. It'll be the thirdliest third world country ever.
"And trust me, I know third world countries! I have a cousin who's an expert in third world countries and let me tell you, he says no one knows third world countries better than me."
Well it might reach unprecedented levels of income equality, I can totally see it
Funny how none of this was a problem until he started blaming Biden.
It's totally Bidens fault, yes. Since he didn't put Trump behind prison bars.
You know all those feral hogs Cody at Some More News has been freaking out over for like a decade now?
They're the vector.
That... they're almost certainly how the worm is popping up in multiple places that are too far away for direct connections to previous specific locations to make sense.
... I feel bad for Cody's blood pressure and hairline.
Anyway, beef ain't gonna be on the menu much longer, boys.
also feral pigs are vicious animals, very hard to take down if you dont kill them outright. besides screworms, they spread other disease through thier poop, they are pretty aggressive invasive animals. this is not to confused with the wild boar, which is a different species of pig that is native to eurasia.
I mean... I feel like a somewhat sane policy at this point would be to put the US's massive collective armory of privately owned firearms to use:
Declare feral hogs to be something approximating a national emergency, adjust hunting laws so that outside of major urban and suburban areas, and far enough away from roadways, you get a small stipend from the government for every feral hog you down and bring in to a local butcher.
Everybody has already been upgunning themselves into like 6.5 creedmoor and 300 blackout and shit for the 'zombie apocalypse' or 'the boogaloo'... aim them at hogs instead of fantasies of being some kind 'me and buddies' militia.
Like, we already have states that adjust the number of other species you can take down per season, per how much the estimated population in the area is or is not overshooting ecological carrying capacity.
Just ... every area with hogs? Dramatically reduce the legal ability to shoot anything other than a hog.
Require that a hog has to be literally placed into a body bag before you haul it away, require a picture from a phone with exif data including timestamp and geolocation be taken before and after you bagging it on site.
Maybe a farmer or rancher or someone with more hunting experience than myself could chime in with a critique of this general concept.
Just... spin it, market it as doing your patriotic duty to take out a hog instead of buck, or something.
Well, I actually like the way the beyond burger patties taste. Maybe now they'll actually have a shot when they don't cost more than the actual meat.
When grilled and smothered with bacon and cheese they're not bad at all.
I mean, a burger made mostly out of beans and flavoring, with bacon and cheese, that does at least have less meat in it than the same with a full chuck patty.
And probably most people that have cooked with fatty meat before can tell you that if you fry up some meat in a pan first, and then cook various other foods in the same pan, small amounts of that oil/grease cooked into various other kinds of food can enhance their flavor.
And its almost certainly much better to use basically bean burger... than using ground up newspaper or flour or breadcrumbs as extra mass for the burger... that was not uncommon during the Great Depression.
Call it the 'hybrid' between a standard burger and a fully vegan one, sorta like the hybrid as the intermediary between ICE and EV cars.
It is not gonna be easy to fully snap transition the burger consumption capital of the planet into not using any meat.... baby steps, baby steps.
This is all Trump and Elon and doge. Good job fuck nuts for axing USAID you dumb pedophiles.
The year is 2367 and the economy collapses.
It is Obama and Joe Bidens fault.
It's more likely than you'd think. I'm old enough to remember when John McCain and Mitch McConnell blamed the 2008 collapse on Jimmy Carter's FHA reforms. Also remember getting an earful about how FDR turned a minor recession into a Great Depression by abandoning the good governance principles of Calvin Coolidge, and that we were still paying the economic price to this day.
mitch is the one that spearheaded the gop direction for the last 20 years.
doubles down to blame Biden.
Ok, sure. Maybe. But Biden isn't president now. Don't point fingers. Do something productive. Don't cut the parts of government that are supposed to help with this kind of stuff.
If it wasn't for Biden, they'd still be blaming Obama, mate.
thats the only thing conservatives do, blame everyone else but yourself.
It'll still be Biden's fault in 2029, they have no shame and they'll never stop.
Don’t point fingers
Trouble is, that’s the only thing republicans know how to do
No, this is a direct result of Musk cutting USAID. It's not even a first term consequence, this is fully on this current Trump administration, within this electoral cycle.
Ok, sure. Maybe.
No. Wrong. Not at all. Trump did this 100%
You expect rationality and sanity where there's none. But, one begs the question, didn't you pay attention at all previous year and half? Nothing has changed, nothing will change, it's the Biden's fault for literally anything bad... And ofc "crazy far left lunatics". Zero accountability, zero responsibility. President is not well, even if we forget about him being a pedophile and a criminal and a crook, he has a dementia and can barely keep eyes open... Sleepy Donny... It's hard to fucking watch.
"Why did Joe Biden shit in my pants?"
Wakes up long enough to holler "SLEEPY JOE!" and goes back to snoozing.
Brooke Rollins doubled down on claims that an “open border policy” under the Biden administration was to blame.
Nevermind, that Trump's ICE is not checking the flies documentation any more than Biden's ICE was, Trump also lifted a ban on cattle imports from Mexico, and so they're the ones with the open border to fly larva policy.
The obvious solution is we need to build an enormous mosquito net around the entire country.
crowd chanting BUILD. THE. NET. BUILD. THE. NET.
Ketamine Musk and his merry band of DOGE misfits eliminated the department tasked with tracking and stopping screwworm flies. And now we have screwworm flies. Yet it's Biden's fault?
Here's my take as a military person.
Okay, fine, it's Biden's fault you have screw worm in the States.
He's not in power anymore. How will YOU solve it?
they will use mental gymanstics, by saying "biden shouldve had measures in place to stop TRUMP" or whatever bs they come up with.
AI will fix plz invest all ur moneys in AI. Its not a scam.
The administration is just repeating the party line: "The buck stops somewhere else"
He’s not in power anymore. How will YOU solve it?
Gotta vote Republican harder this time. There's still too many Democrats in government. Once we've gotten rid of all the Democrats, then we can implement the magical policies that will solve all our problems.
That is, of course, assuming there aren't any fifth columnist liberal voters who try to obstruct us. We might need to get rid of them, too.
Any time the Dow ticks up, regardless of the reason - that's the result of Pumpkinhead's financial genius, ability to make great "deals", and probably because of his 16 inch girthy schlong.
Anything bad - that's Biden. Also probably Obama. And Bill. And Hillary. Maybe even Carter.
Nothing can ever fail because a Republican was in charge or because conservative ideology was in play. If things fail under Republicans, it's because they were RINOs and/or they didn't go hard enough on the conservatism.
It works just like Communism that way.
