He literally cheered for the people protecting us from these threats being fired. Then he tried to make a DOGE copy in Texas

He's a horrible governor and a hypocrite who cares more about Trump than he cares about Texas ranchers and consumers

@LuxMeaMundiAM Give up gluten. Suffered from severe acid reflux, had multiple endoscopies, various treatments and medications nothing worked, until I became gluten free.

A flesh-eating parasite that was supposed to stay eradicated is now confirmed in Texas livestock, and you can thank the same administration that gutted the agencies built to stop it.

The New World screwworm, a parasitic fly whose larvae literally burrow through living flesh and can kill an animal if untreated, was officially detected in a three-week-old calf in Zavala County, Texas this week. This was not a surprise to anyone paying attention. The pest had been spreading northward through Central America and Mexico since at least 2022, and experts projected it would reach the U.S. by 2025.

What changed the math was the trump administration cutting roughly 15 percent of the USDA's entire workforce, around 15,000 people, including those responsible for monitoring and fighting exactly this kind of agricultural threat. The program that fights screwworms works by releasing millions of sterilized male flies to disrupt breeding, a slow, science-dependent, international cooperation kind of effort that requires, well, a functioning government.

Instead, DOGE took a chainsaw to the USDA so the wealthiest Americans could pocket a bigger tax cut, and now the cattle industry is staring down a potential $10.6 billion disaster.

And here is the part that hits everyone at the kitchen table: beef prices are already at a record high, with ground beef hitting $6.69 a pound in December 2025, up 72 percent since 2020. The screwworm border closures have already cut off over a million head of Mexican feeder cattle that American feedlots depend on, and the USDA is forecasting another 6.9 percent increase in wholesale beef prices in 2026. This is what happens when you gut the agencies designed to catch these problems early so billionaires can get a bigger tax cut.

The irony is almost too much: the ranchers and agricultural states that went hard for trump in 2024 are now the ones watching flesh-eating maggots show up in their herds. A #Texas state Republican rep had been sounding the alarm for over a year while, as he put it, "federal regulators moved at a snail's pace." That snail's pace had a price tag, and every American buying ground beef is paying it now.

There are plenty of world-class L0ngC0vid experts far smarter than I am.

But I bring something they don’t: I’m a CV surgeon and endovascular specialist. I’ve had hearts, lungs, arteries, and other organs literally in my hands. I’ve seen their insides, healthy and ravaged, with my own eyes.

That gives me one brutal, irreplaceable edge: I can take the science and translate it straight into the living, bleeding reality of human anatomy.

And what I see coming is ugly.

You, personally and as a society, are in for one hell of a shock.

Read this 🧵👇

If you keep minimising SARSCoV2, refuse to protect yourselves, and keep swallowing the lies of pseudo-experts chasing money or psychiatrists salivating over a fresh FND goldmine… you’re walking straight into disaster.

Tell every last one of them to https://t.co/rw58iRjUf4 off!

Then follow the hard, unfolding science.👇

Your organs don’t care about opinions. They only care about damage. And the damage is already stacking up, be it momentarily maybe still clinically "silent"! #AvoidSars2 #AvoidReinfections

@Maryseethelight @ShortnBluntTho Industrial farming exists because of the demand for products by people who believe animal protein is a right and necessity. There is no humane way to eat protein.🌱

@Gerashchenko_en No words can express the heartbreak I feel for these children and the hatred I have for Russia.😢💔😡

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Today is the International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression. For Ukrainians, this is a painful reality that has become part of everyday life.

Since 2022 alone, Russia has killed 707 Ukrainian children, injured 2,548, and left 2,318 missing. The youngest victim was just two days old - born and killed in a maternity hospital.

These figures may be far higher, as the full truth about what has happened in the temporarily occupied territories remains unknown. In addition, at least 20,470 Ukrainian children have been deported to Russia or forcibly displaced.

Eternal memory to all the children whose lives have been taken by Russia's aggression...

Y’all are on an endless loop of reinfections with a neuroinvasive virus proven to damage the area of the brain responsible for empathy and critical thinking, so good luck with that.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

The Trump administration has been telling you they had screwworm under control for months. Now, it's here.

What happened? Trump and DOGE slashed funding for screwworm monitoring programs.

And the entire GOP let them. Thank them for today's new hell they unleashed on you.

There is no end in sight.

My mom has kept a pre packed hospital bag ready since Omicron Ba.1 hit her hard in January 2022. We only used it once after the next wave, BQ.1, in January 2023. That one sent her to the ER with heart issues, partial coronary artery blockage, asthma, and what seems like dysautonomia.

My mom has been off ever since.
Some days she pushes through. Others she is hit with dizziness, chest pain, arrhythmias, dangerously low blood pressure, crushing fatigue, and that heavy sense of anxious impending doom.

Tonight, she looked so unwell I wondered if I would need to take her to the ER again.
She reminded me again where she kept that pre packed hospital bag incase I was to bring it to her at the hospital if she were to call 911.

This new RE.2.5 variant crept through our area the first and second week of May.
I am absolutely sure of it.
It hides from the wastewater like something underground and surfaces without warning in random localized hotspots, just like cicadas, before vanishing again.
It found the kids first in suburbias and then tore through the families.

I see the same stories everywhere on social media and in my local groups. Locals in the suburbs describing the sudden wave of symptoms. Especially GI and “strep.” Lots of pneumonia and sepsis. An immune system that tanks like AIDS and getting sick on repeat with an endless cough. Full body rashes. Pink eye. Heavy brain fog. Anxiety/impending doom like feelings. Dizziness. Burning dry eyes. Blood pressure issues, chest pain and dysautonomia like symptoms.

Oh and the denial factor, the ABC Anything But Covid factor, is absolutely wicked with this variant.
So much so, that you might even be tricked yourselves when you hear their tales of how this was anything but Covid.

It is the same dark cycle again and again. Another wave. Another fight. Another round of watching the people you love suffer while the world pretends it is over.
We are so tired.
I see you Cicada, RE.2.5 even if the world does not. 🦗 👀

Population-wide brain damage is scary, especially when the entity that's exacerbating it is ignored and disregarded.
