Activist: "Farmers pump their cows full of antibiotics. It's in every glass of milk."
Dairy farmer: "Do you know what happens if it is?"
Activist: "People drink it."
Dairy farmer: "The tanker gets tested at the gate. One cow's worth of antibiotic in 20,000 litres and the whole load goes down the drain. Every farm on the run that morning gets their milk tipped, and the farm that did it pays for all of it."
Activist: "So you're saying it never happens."
Dairy farmer: "I'm saying a treated cow on this farm gets red tape round her leg, goes to the back of the parlour, and her milk goes in a bucket for 6 days. I treat her like she's radioactive, because financially she is."
Activist: "You still use them."
Dairy farmer: "On a cow that's ill. Same as you. The vet writes it up, the date goes on the wall, and the wall's checked. Use on this farm is about half what it was 10 years ago, and that's every dairy I know."
Activist: "Routine use in feed, then."
Dairy farmer: "Illegal for years. Growth promoters went 20 years ago. You're describing a chicken shed in a country I don't farm in."
Activist: "You can't prove it's not in the milk."
Dairy farmer: "I can prove it 3 times a week, because they test it 3 times a week and send me the sheet. When did you last get a sheet on your oat drink?"
Activist: "That's different."
Dairy farmer: "It is. Nobody tests it. Mine's the most inspected liquid in your kitchen and it's the one you're scared of."

🚨 AWESOME! Argentina President Javier Milei is being praised worldwide for filing a law to BLOCK politicians from getting paid if they allow the country's budget to fall into a deficit
"For the first time in our history, if politicians don't do their homework, they won't get paid. It's not the people who'll go unpaid — it's the politicians."
🔥🔥🔥
DO IT IN THE USA!
This is BASED, @JMilei! 🇺🇸🇦🇷
THIS IS THE WAY!! 🇺🇸👏🏼
“Guys, I didn't born here, I didn't grow up here. English is not my first language. That's not the flag I born under. But look, I make this flag my flag. And I respect that flag.
Cause when I look at that flag, I remember every single hero… The ones who fought and fight to keep America great.
That's why I never will burn this flag… I'm proud to be an American citizen.”
Al Sharpton and other activists are telling Black Americans and Black-owned businesses to boycott America’s 250th birthday.
My response: You do not speak for me.
You do not get to use my skin color to tell me what I can celebrate. I was not a slave. You were not a slave. We are free Americans, and I refuse to walk around pretending we are still in chains.
Yes, I proudly put George Washington on my America 250 Cousin T’s pancake box. He owned slaves, but that is not his entire legacy. He was also our first president and helped build the nation that gave people like me the freedom to rise.
I went from foster care to building Cousin T’s, a successful Black-owned American company. I am living the American Dream.
So while Al Sharpton is calling for a boycott, I am calling for Black Americans to stop letting professional outrage merchants convince us that patriotism belongs only to white people.
America is my country too.
I will celebrate her loudly, proudly, and without permission.
Visiting my frat brother in Charlotte, first thing he says when I get in the car:
“Trump really fucked up this economy.”
ME: “Says the man driving a $60,000 car to the new house he just bought.”
HIM: “That’s because Trump’s economy got me working an additional 30 to 40 hrs/week driving rideshare to keep from being homeless.”
ME: “How is it his fault you overspend? I don’t make anywhere near what you make and I’m doing fine.”
HIM: “Yeah well, you got a rich aunt.”
ME: “True, and she helps out but I live fine on what I make and I’m naturally thrifty, so Trump isn’t harming me at all. You’re a black man living in America with three cars and a home. How is Trump holding you back?”
HIM: “Well anyway, let’s not ruin your vacation with politics.”
Logic is their kryptonite.

My son Jack was diagnosed with autism when he was eighteen months old.
He went to an integrated preschool.
He was referred out of district in sixth grade.
He graduated from a very small high school.
Three years ago, after a year in a community with a lot of support, Jack was accepted into college.
Yesterday, I offered to share our story with a major online platform. They declined. They said they are only interested in traditional success stories.
What is this, I thought, if not a success story?
It's not a pretty story, that's true. It's not traditional.
It's not a s story wrapped up in a perfect GPA or glowing recommendations.
It's a story about a boy, a diagnosis, and a whole lot of grit and determination.
"Mom. I am a college student now."
