Agriculture Sec @BrookeLRollins in November: "We have screwworm under control south of the border. Beef prices will come down by spring 2026"
Beef prices continue to rise, and screwworm is now in the US.

The way white people talked about Slaves is mind blowing and disturbing because they literally thought that they were happy living on the Plantations.They thought that slaves couldn’t live on their own and survive. 🤬

Trump's vicious attack on @rachelvscott was proceeded by a pattern IMO of attacks on Black women.
He has done this for years.
NO fellow journalists EVER stand up for these women.
It's disgusting behavior.
And remember I made this back in 2020
The time for Dems to protect voting rights was 2021. Now, it's too late.
The Viringia SCOTUS appeal is actually terrible.
[Gandalf voice] Lawsuits are no more use here. This enemy can only be defeated by voters.
