@mchooyah If the owners of a football team can't afford to build their own stadium, they shouldn't own the team. Walton Family is building the new Denver stadium because they benefit from the increased value of the team. Stop. Billionaire. Welfare.

@ChicagoBears If you can't afford to build a stadium, maybe you shouldn't own a team. Walton Family paying for Denver Bronco new stadium.

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.

@ChicagoBears Billionaire welfare wins again.

@MeriwetherFarms Doge cuts in action. https://t.co/YLtHQAHoNm

[Dr. Catharine Young @DrCatharineY]

The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service at USDA helps prevent threats like screwworm from ever reaching US livestock.

In 2025, it lost 1,300 employees due to cuts and firings.

That’s the thing about prevention: you don’t notice it when it works, only when it is gone.

@jmontforttx Doge cut USDA staffing to dangerous levels. https://t.co/YLtHQAHoNm

@MeriwetherFarms Congrats for electing Trump who let this happen. https://t.co/XuUio8EB0m

[FactPost @factpostnews]

Rep. Fletcher: The New World screwworm has been found in Texas. This flesh-eating parasite previously eradicated from the U.S. poses a huge threat to our cattle. Last March, the Trump administration fired more than 15,000 USDA employees and eliminated a program to contain the screwworm in Central America. The threat of New World screwworm is just one consequence of the Trump administration's reckless campaign to eliminate funding for government programs that Americans rely on.

[Mandy O’Neill @mandyoneill]

@MeriwetherFarms Trump admin said screwworm is under control. So what's the problem? https://t.co/9L92CSScvA

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

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.

@Cashloren Or... you're lying. Which is more probable? Cash?? Cash????

[Mandy O’Neill @mandyoneill]

@MeriwetherFarms We're skipping beef. It's too expensive. Haven't had a pot roast in over a year. That's not flesh eating maggots. That's you and Trump.

[Mandy O’Neill @mandyoneill]

@CharlotteAlter Hunter Biden is SLAYING on X. Even MAGA's respecting him. Jill's book tour timing was out of her hands. Yes, it's awful, but Jill's book tour vs. everything Trump is doing daily, isn't the problem.

[Mandy O’Neill @mandyoneill]

@stoolpresidente Paltner's history is awful... like yours. You support the guy backed by white supremacists, Proud Boys, covering up for pedophiles and sex traffickers, selling pardons, pardoning white supremacists, engaging in daily corruption. But yeah... point out Platner's history.

@BillyBaldwin @sandibachom The remaining $5M on his contract to keep it out of discovery.

[Mandy O’Neill @mandyoneill]

@WerderEdNFL Which is what Pelley wants. He wants a lawsuit with discovery to expose CBS. My guess... CBS pays the $5M to make it go away.

@TMZ TMZ needs to look at themselves and how their gotcha journalism contribute to the "bombastic" state of politics.
