The average lifespan of a female screwworm fly is 10 to 30 days, once they lay eggs in an open wound they hatch and the maggots feed for 7 days before dropping to the ground, burrowing into the soil and emerge as adult flies.
Tell me then how can the first screwworm case detected in the US on day 498 of the trump presidency be Joe Biden's fault???????
FACT: Trump cut funding to stop the spread the screwworm. Then he signed an executive order allowing 100,000 metric tons of beef from Argentina into the U.S. per year. America eradicated screwworms in 1966, while Argentina has been struggling with them for well over a century.
If Donald Trump can go to Madison Square Garden, surrounded by thousands of strangers, in a state that went overwhelmingly for Harris.....
THEN WHY DOES HE NEED A BALL ROOM?
This is just becoming incredibly embarrassing for the Republicans.
You would think that they ( republicans) did nothing when Joe Biden was president. Evidently Joe Biden did everything.
Yesterday, I was notified of the 50th death in ICE custody since Trump returned to office.
This is unprecedented and further proof that ICE and their private, for-profit prison contractors should not be sent another cent of taxpayer dollars. There must be accountability.
BREAKING: DHS just waived all environmental laws to blast border barriers and roads through Big Bend National Park.
This marks the first time in American history the feds have gutted dozens of laws to push industrial-level construction through a national park.
Trump's proposed 2027 budget allocates $0 for Forest Service research, potentially shuttering hundreds of research facilities across the country.
Many of the closing facilities cost the government just $1 a year in rent.
Trump's EPA has demanded agency scientists redact and downplay the health risks of chemicals found in consumer products like household cleaners and cosmetics.
BREAKING: Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed James Talarico:
“I defended Ken Paxton for years in the impeachment trial and in state criminal cases. But in my view, I think Ken has lost sight of his core mission, which is to represent the people of Texas.
And unlike Ken, I believe that you, James, believe in unity over division and that you know how to assemble not only Democrats but Independents and Republicans and we need that right now.
We need unity, we don't need any more division and that's why I'm supporting you.”
No amount of repetition makes a lie a truth.
Every single case attempting to overturn the 2020 election was overturned, dismissed, or dropped, even by Trump-appointed judges.
This is a man who will throw a temper tantrum rather than accept a history he cannot rewrite. History will not look kindly upon those who enabled and encouraged this shameless, deliberate assault on American democracy and the truth.
Texas's Ag commissioner warns Trump's slow response to New World Screwworm is increasing beef prices:
"You can look for higher beef prices because of the failure of the USDA to control this pest."
Reminder: Trump was president during the election he says was rigged, and when Dems were in charge he won — which means either they really suck at rigging elections or he is full of shit. (Hint: it’s the latter)
If you think California is taking a long time to count votes... wait until you hear how long the Trump Administration is taking to release the Epstein Files
President Trump told NBC's Kristen Welker that she was wrong when she said he'd promised no new wars. She was right, he was lying; he made that promise repeatedly in 2024. The evidence: https://t.co/Vcb6vttwoc
The Trump Admin cut funding for screwworm detection and fired 25% of staff responsible for tracking the disease.
I’m embarrassed for the Secretary that her only answer is to blame the administration that left office a year and a half ago.
“A [Trump-appointed] Los Angeles-based Justice Department official late Friday debunked a baseless claim of a discrepancy in the vote count of the city’s mayoral race that has circulated on social media.” https://t.co/lYxajQsEpR
