In story after story, the @WSJ frames high prices as the biggest issue associated with the beef industry. This coverage routinely overlooks far more consequential issues, including environmental destruction, animal cruelty and human health. Why does the #WSJ omit these existential issues from its beef industry coverage? cc: @PatThomas1318@wadeNYC@Ajawmoore
ARRESTED 🚨
Five PETA have been ARRESTED in front of @PepsiCo headquarters. For months, PETA has been urging it to stop beating, whipping, & forcing bulls in its sugar supply chain to haul heavy carts in extreme heat. These brave animal defenders encased themselves in cement to make a bold statement ❌🐂
A tragedy 💔
Tuna fish fHarming 👺
Wild caught tuna juveniles kept and grown in enclosures👺
It is horrible for the tuna and it pollutes extremely.
Treated with antibiotics, organophosphates and growth hormones 🤢
#BanFishFarming#StopEatingFish#LiveVegan 🙏
This sickens me and makes me want to raise hell over these scumbags 👺We are destroying life on our planet. Farming fishing and hunting animals must be stopped and phased out permanently and we must do it now. There is no other way to sustain life on our planet #LiveVegan or face extinction ✌️
Horrifying! Monkeys are suffering in barren cages with Frankenstein-style brain implants at @YorkUniversity. Some have been confined & experimented on for nearly 2 decades 💔
We’re calling on the university to CLOSE this cruel lab!

Prisoners in a forced labor concentration camp in #Denmark. Surrounded by metal bars 24/7. The worst form of animal slavery you can imagine. Your only purpose is to breed. Rape Breed Repeat 👺 #Divest from animal abuse #LiveVegan be no part of this 🙏
The French newspaper @ladepechedumidi published a snarky article criticizing the effort of #AnimalRights activists to ban the sale of #foiegras in Portland, Oregon. The headline sets the tone: "The City that Legalized Crack Wants to Ban Foie Gras."
@ladepeche_32 refers to foie gras as a "guilty pleasure" but doesn't include a description of force-feeding, one of several reasons why consumers should feel guilty about eating this fatty duck liver product.
Also, by reporting that consumers will be "deprived" of foie gras, #LaDepeche is framing consumers, not the tortured animals, as the victims.

Sound on 🔊 He’s struggling to breathe.
Bulls are individuals, @PepsiCo! They're not machines to be burdened and abused for your products!
Use tractors instead. Demand Pepsi go bull-free! https://t.co/WVL59WxwS5

"Benito" harvests avocados. He shares, "I climb a 9 ft ladder carrying 50 to 60 lbs on my shoulder. It's dangerous work, especially in the rainy season. I work to support my family of 3 and I barely make enough to cover expenses." #WeFeedYou
This is shocking: the House Rules Committee just blocked a vote on stripping the Save Our Bacon Act from the farm bill.
The SOB Act, buried deep in the farm bill, would wipe out state bans on pork from crated pigs, condemning millions to a lifetime in gestation crates.
We were getting very close to having the votes to pass Rep. Luna’s bipartisan amendment to strip the SOB Act from the bill on the floor of the House.
Then pork industry lobbyists got to work. Behind closed doors, they got Rules Committee leadership to stop a vote entirely and protect the SOB Act from the scrutiny it can’t survive.
The only option now is to kill the whole rotten farm bill. Please call your representatives at (202) 225-3121 and tell them to vote NO.
Pigs are among the most intelligent and emotionally complex animals on the planet. Look at the sickening and sadistic conditions in which factory farms keep them.👇
That industry is trying to federalize animal abuse laws to bar bipartisan reforms led by @RepLuna. Please read:
While most mainstream media outlets echo meat industry narratives about the “death of veganism,” the @observer has reported on what’s actually happening -- #plantbased dining has gone mainstream.
Thank you @AnnaRahmanan for your thorough reporting.
In 15 years, Brooklyn’s Fourth Ave added thousands of homes over a 110-year-old subway line without adding new streets. At what point are we going to realize that building high capacity transit in every city in this country pays off over multiple lifetimes?
Teaching a new driver EXACTLY the way they do it themselves. In bike lane, makes a left on red and ripping this poor horse's mouth out. A perfect student in the @TWULocal100 carriage horse circus. @SpeakerMenin@HarveyforNY@NYCMayor@NYCCouncil please end this in 2026. Enough 🙏
"Rogelio" says, "I'm harvesting strawberries in Ventura County today. It's pouring rain. The weather has been changing a lot lately. The strawberry harvest hasn't been good this year. Thank God, my health is good. I'll keep working as hard as I can to feed my family." #WeFeedYou
We went to Staten Island to track down New York City's second-worst driver:
He's an @NYPDnews officer who has been caught blasting through school zones or running red lights in his truck more than 547 times since 2022.
