USDA mistakenly fired key bird flu response workers
No. No they didn't.
They fired people to try to free money for more tax breaks for the top 1% with zero concern if these people were needed or useful.
Close: they are enemies of the United States acting out of malice toward the goal of weakening the United States.
We are under attack.
They are enemies of the US, their goal is to weaken it, and we are under attack.
That said, they care about enriching themselves and their loyal buddies more than anything else.

Look at how insanely difficult, if not impossible, our job is at educating these morons on how they're being taken for a ride by conmen. The longer it goes on the more they'd have to admit they're wrong about, which makes it even less likely they'll realize it.
Being a useful idiot is really a sunk-cost fallacy on a life scale.
The less eggs you can afford to buy increases the supply for the people who do not need to worry about the price of eggs.
Meanwhile in Trudeau's socialist nightmare, where eggs are under ~~kolkhoz~~ supply management, I pay $5.25 USD... for 18 eggs.
I normally get extra large eggs, but I just got some extra extra large eggs for 5.25$ Canadian. A dozen.
You really hate chickens buttholes dont you?^^
Time to start putting up those trump 'i did this' stickers in supermarkets untill they ban me again.
We got chickens when facing an egg crisis here in NZ. Lovely little animals. It's been nice being able to look after and care for these creatures, knowing they are living the good life whilst consuming their eggs. Much more useful than my dumb dog.
Sucks for Americans. I got a dozen extra extra large eggs in Canada for 5$ Canadian...
But let's be honest. 5$ for a dozen eggs is fucking nuts too. They were so much fucking cheaper not all that long ago
… I still remember when eggs were .89 for a dozen. Those were the days.
i don't have egg prices in my area. the grocery store simply removed the egg section
I managed to find a dozen for $4.97 yesterday. It's the best I've been able to find in some time.
If eggs were 6/dozen, and prices rose to 10/dozen... that's already a 40% increase.
so like....
yeah. I'd take that bet.
… except it’s not.
$6 * 1.40 = $8.40
Uh...I don't think that's right. 40% of 6 is 2.4, so it'd be $8.40/dozen
Granted, I agree that $10 a dozen seems very possible at this point
I'm regularly seeing $12+
Thank goodness the Orange turd is right on this in the front lines of tossing paper towels at people!
Clearly the solution is to ban trans people from existing
And as a bonus for banning trans people, they think they'll go to heaven for being good little bigots for god.
Tofu scramble is pretty good. Firm or extra firm tofu block, slice and crumble into a bowl. 1 tbsp turmeric, 1 tbsp black pepper, 1 tbsp garlic powder, mix. Cook in a pan on medium stirring occasionally, will turn yellow as it heats up. Then add key ingredient black salt (kala namak, a salt with a strong sulfur flavor) to taste. Mix in with your pan fry mix of choice, I like onion/garlic/serrano/mushroom/smoked paprika/chili powder/spinach/tomato and green pepper/cilantro added at the end. Serve with fruit and toast.
Deep fried tofu with peanut sauce is like crack.
Why does it feel like I'm reading articles about egg prices virtually every day. I don't get why anyone cares this much.
I guess it was because the price of eggs was practically a campaigning slogan shared a lot around trump supporters.
It's because eggs are one of the more universal food items. Their price sort of shows how well the economy is doing so it's a nice gauge on that sort of thing.
Choosing egg prices as your campaign slogan during an H5 endemic was already a pretty bad move and then you topped it with tariffs lol
There going to hit a dollar an egg some places in Seattle at this rate
Now the minimum wage will be measured in eggs
In other news, you can have hens in your back yard!
Look at this rich guy here that can afford a yard.
