Rep. Thomas Massie is on the brink of securing a huge win for small farmers.
His PRIME Act is officially included in the 2026 Farm Bill.
If this passes, it will deliver a blow to Big Ag’s stranglehold on the meatpacking industry.
“This would make it easier for local farmers to sell directly to local consumers using a local slaughterhouse.”
How?
It would cut the USDA out of inspections for local processing facilities.
“You don’t need the USDA to inspect a facility that has seven employees.”
“So what I’ve proposed is that you could just have the local health inspection… inspecting these slaughterhouses.”
“As long as you don’t cross state lines, you shouldn’t need the federal government’s involvement in this processing.”
“The good news is, I got that in the Farm Bill.”

Ladies and Gentlemen. May I present The Petrodollar system. Where water and every other commodity price rises with the value of gold and Oil is pegged to the strength of the US dollar….
Same price in Houston today.
- Branded spring water: collect at nearby spring, filter at plant, bottle and truck to store.
- Gasoline: Drill down 2 miles, turn sideways and continue another 2-4 miles. Run steel pipe and cement through hole. Punch small holes in pipe. Send water/sand mixture down pipe at extreme pressures to fracture rock. Separate streams of oil/gas/water at surface. Truck oil to nearest pipeline where it travels 800 miles to refinery. Treat crude to remove impurities. Heat crude to >700° to separate into different products including gasoline. Remove sulfur and other remaining contaminants. Move to large storage tank. Blend with ethanol, naptha, and other products that require complex chemistry to meet octane and clean fuel specs. Truck on specialized tanker to underground tank at gas station.
If I didn’t lose all my Bitcoin in a boating accident this summer I would definitely be selling because Epstein is def Satoshi. Still pissed at myself for being so careless though
