Nothing says “I’m the boss” like being completely fucking ignored.

The screwworm program wasn't charity, it was a $10 million fence that kept a billion-dollar problem from eating our own livestock alive. That's the thing with most USAID funding: it looks like "aid," but it's really cheap self-defense. Solve a problem there, and it never lands on our doorstep. But sure, let a bunch of guys who can't define DEI without Googling take a chainsaw to it. They didn't stop to ask, "Will this cut hurt us too?" Unless that's the point, burn it all down and call it efficiency.

As usual our inept agriculture secretary, blaming the Biden administration as usual, instead of offering a solution to the problem they created.

Texan here

A screwworm infestation is a nightmare for cattle, causing horrific wounds and economic devastation. For Texas, the situation has escalated dramatically in the last 24 hours with the first confirmed case of New World Screwworm (NWS) in over 60 years! This could have been avoided!

Infested animal can kill a cow in less than two weeks.

Treatment is extremely difficult and time-consuming, requiring the painful removal of every visible larva and deep disinfection of the wound. Ranchers no longer have much experience with this labor-intensive process, and there is currently no approved pharmaceutical treatment to make it easier.

This has triggered a massive economic threat. The USDA estimates that a widespread outbreak would drain an astonishing $1.8 billion from the Texas economy alone in livestock deaths, labor, and medication expenses.

How will this affect you? Tightening supplies will drive already high beef prices higher.

Wind turbines are ugly and kill birds but derricks, pipelines and oil spills are absolutely fine.

While everybody is focusing on Iran the DOJ is deleting the Epstein files. The Mission successful

Republicans: Abortions are murder!

Also Republicans: Children dying from malnutrition, lack of vaccines and healthcare is perfectly acceptable as long as we can lower corporate tax rates by 1%.

People are so fucking stupid. Raw milk isn't any better for you it is just more likely to have bacteria in it

[Jeremy Konyndyk @JeremyKonyndyk]

DOGE didn't make a dent in the deficit, but it did bring back screwworm and enable a historically large new Ebola outbreak, so it's not like they didn't achieve *anything*

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

If abortion is “murder,” then parents refusing a simple vitamin K shot to prevent their newborn from bleeding to death should be too.

Knowing that politicians have the power to do stuff like this but simply don’t…

Donald Trump will murder your entire family for more money

And no, you won’t be spared if you love him

[C-Bo the Eggman @CBoTheEggman]

Trump and Republicans are busy giving tariff exceptions and property taxes breaks to the companies causing this huge increase to everyone's electricity bill

Why does capitalism need so many subsidies?

Donald Trump and Elon Musk orchestrated the largest mass firing of Black people in US History

If you're not already paying close attention to the fight against data centers, don't sleep on it. We don't see a lot of issues with such a broad base of opposition. It's a crucial fight, and it blurs political lines more than just about anything these days.

I don’t think the richest man in the world should be in any position to tell someone what counts as entitlement.

It’s not political to say stop voting for Republicans. At this point it’s self preservation.

[Melanie D'Arrigo @DarrigoMelanie]

Weird, because Spirit Airlines blamed it on rising fuel costs because of Trump’s war in Iran.
