@WhiteHouse This is a nothing-burger.
It’s already legal for farmers to process their own meat, and people can buy a cow and do the same.
The problem is it’s currently illegal to sell it “by the cut.”
So what exactly is being promised that Trump’s corporate meatpacking bosses will allow?
BREAKING: Two people have died in Pennsylvania from measles, the state health department said Tuesday. Both were unvaccinated.

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 American wages have fallen to 43% of national income, the lowest since the Great Depression.
For every $1 the US economy produces, workers are getting less of it than at any point since 1929.
The rest is going to corporate profits, which are now at an all time high.
This is why the economy keeps growing but most Americans feel poorer. GDP goes up, wages go up in dollar terms, but workers are getting a smaller and smaller slice of what they actually produce.
Asset prices keep rising for the same reason.
Money that used to go to wages is now going to shareholders instead, and shareholders put it into stocks, real estate and other assets.
TRUMP: “We'll by Argentinian beef.”
Reporters:' What about the US farmers who are suffering?'
Trump: “Argentina is fighting for its life. Do you understand me? They’re dying.”
He says this as 77 American cattle producers are going out of business in the US per day.
Trump has been a conman his whole life.
In a questionable "coincidence," the trump administration announced it was importing "ground beef" the same day they were exposed for slaughtering our wild horses.
Know your meat.
My boomer dad asked me last week why I'm still renting at 43.
I told him a starter home in our area is $410,000.
He said "so save up."
I said the down payment alone is $82,000.
He said "that's not so bad, break it into pieces."
I said after rent, insurance, and daycare I put away maybe $400 a month.
He did the math out loud. Got to seventeen years. Went quiet.
Then he said something I didn't expect.
"I put down $3,200 on our first place. I had it saved in eight months working at the plant."
Then he just sat there for a second.
"I always thought you kids were exaggerating."
That's it. That's the whole conversation.
He wasn't being cruel. He genuinely had no idea. Nobody ever showed him the number.
Most of them aren't defending the system. They just never looked at it.
@Owennfa Same for my son. He moved to Colorado. He works full time and makes $24/hr. He is 21 he only makes enough for a 1 bathroom and food. I help with his cellphone and car insurance (car is paid off). He moved out of California because here is even worse.
@norwegianesc Going to Norway 🇳🇴 to celebrate my 50th birthday next year 😄🤘🏼 who knows? Maybe an old fashioned Viking would like to date a Latina there 🤭 can’t wait!
Dear Norway fans… you are, without question, the finest supporters this tournament has seen.
From a nation of just over five and a half million people, you travelled across oceans, filled stadiums, painted American streets red and white and turned every single game into a festival of noise, pride and pure joy.
28 years away from the World Cup stage and you returned not with entitlement, but with energy. Not just with noise, but with meaning.
The Viking Row didn’t just inspire your players. It inspired everyone. Opponents. Neutrals. The entire watching world.
The quarter finals. You deserve every single second of it. Keep going. Keep rowing. Norway, the world is behind you. 🇳🇴
