It's always so strange to me to hear "flesh-eating fly (that causes extreme pain to every warm-blooded mammal) has resurfaced. This will make beef more expensive."
It's the same energy as "ah we just bombed Iran, now gas is more expensive."
I guess I'll just keep reposting this until journalism catches up: The screwworm coverage so far is terrible.
First off, everyone is acting like this is a problem for beef prices (end of list). No, this is a problem for any mammal living in the southern US. FFS, some of the cases already are dogs- how are people not putting this together?
Second, Biden did whiff on the screwworm response in Central America. They should have pulled a Gandalf as screwworms spread north, but instead were modern Democrats and assumed the situation would fix itself until it was really bad.
Third, the real blame lies with whoever was POTUS before Biden (I can’t recall) for ignoring that the Panama facility holding the Darien Gap needed updates, more funding. We’re talking tens of millions of dollars to fix in 2018 what will now be a billions and billions problem. Trump- oh right it was Trump. Yeah, then when Covid hit they lost the Gap. To come back in 2025 and cut funding to to the program, pull out of partnerships with nations dealing with screwworms, and re-open the border to animal disease vectors is insanity. Are we sure these people aren’t literal demons feeding on human misery?
Belle has done a good video stripping the Maga-narrative bare naked and exposing where the screworm lives in the sweaty folds of their pale flesh.
It’s illegal to talk about how easy it would be to kill Elon Musk. Don’t do it.
Maybe one of his kids will do it. 🤞🏼AE-XE-IVEML-PQRS-3
It’s cool, just blame your actions on Biden and MAGA will nod in agreement.
Andrew Jackson’s fault!!!
Well… actually…
if he was a Hitman cameo, though?
In Minecraft even?
I've been away from Minecraft for so long I'm not even sure what the combat meta is anymore! still enchanted diamond sword??
Bro idk. They got like, spears and maces and shit now.
Nobody cares guys.
Why do you guys keep hanging out here just to read a daily article and move on.
Because we care.
Awww, that's nice. You don't care enough. But it's a nice thought.
Is this the bridge too far, or will his supporters power through and find a way to believe this?
World War 2
The 1958 Ford Edsel
The Black Plague
Look I am not saying all of those are Joe Biden's fault, but think about it
I heard he didn't even serve in WW2. That damn commie!
Take your pick:
The post already says theyre blaming it on Biden. I've heard magats say gas was $9/gal under Biden. These people has the memory of a gold fish, and just repeat whatever faux news says.
There's no point In even talking to those people. We have to take away their power and ignore them. We no longer owe them civility
I’ve heard magats say gas was $9/gal under Biden.
LOLWUT. Was that a thing in any state at all? I could see some regions like Hawaii or Cali maybe?
They also said its cheaper now than it was under Biden, so im inclined to say this is just delusional rationalization.
Also:
"The DNC/Biden/Hillary Clinton/George Soros are funneling dArK mOnEy into flying planes full of screw worms and dumping them all over the US to make Trump look bad!!1"
Isn't red meat a staple of MAHA though?
It is until it's not and then it never was.
My mitochondria hurt
I was talking with someone yesterday that had a giant Trump sign in his yard well after the last election. Sign was taken down months ago and he was saying the he doesn't even want to vote anymore because he doesn't want to be responsible for who gets into office. That's not an insignificant change. I live in the south and I have only heard one person saying anything remotely positive about him out loud, and they had to state that it wasn't all good in the same sentence. Trump does not have the support he did when elected because these people sleep waling through life are waking up to at least a measure of reality.
You guys are incredible lucky that he got dementia before he could do even more damage
THE MAN WASN’T EVEN IN OFFICE AT TBE TIME OF THEIR EXISTENCE!
Those maga folk in southern states do like to BBQ steaks. I wonder how they’ll spin this one to support trump while they swallow the extra cost without admitting they’re wrong?
One minor quibble. Generally, you grill steaks. BBQ is a low and slow cooking method in a smoky environment to allow larger cuts of meat with lots of collagen time to get tender and delicious.
Nanny state can pry the wormy beef from my cold, dead hands.
Deep throat
Well, i mean yeah, duh! If biden didnt do it, trump wouldnt have to cut the program!
/s for the serial dumbfucks
Don’t worry , Bill Gates has some 3d printed cancer meat to sell you! And butter made from petroleum distillates!
