> In a Breitbart article, USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins blithely assures us that increased biosecurity supported by the Trump Administration will negate the need for vaccines. I have to wonder how that’s going to work out for poultry flocks next to dairy (or feedlot) H5N1 B3.13 or D1.1 outbreaks, especially when she is also taking cattle vaccines off the table in the same conversation? I’ll give Secretary Rollins credit for one thing - she definitely does not hide her intentions in 3rd person language anonymity! She will own these comments! That'll be something to keep in mind.

"negate the need for vaccines" i guess we should start to buy only imported powdered milk as US milk won't be safe for human consumption anymore. what is wrong with these people, go be corrupt and steal government money but leave this shit alone.

    Is this hyperbole, or are you seriously claiming that the Jewish men who run Breitbart, or Jewish founders like Ben Shapiro or Andrew Breitbart, are neo-Nazis?

      Andrew Breitbart is dead and not running anything right now. Also, antisemitism was not the only thing wrong with nazi.

      A lot of people who hate Jews are surprisingly fine with Ben Shapiro

      Nazi became a bit too broadly used in place of fascism, it's American Fascism, its own special flavour of it which is not anti-semitic (quite the opposite, it's actually very pro-semitic with its allegiance to Israel). Of course it's all semantics, and you very likely understand that.

        American Fascism is quite antisemitic, in spite of its successes with a certain subset of Jewish people. Contemporary American fascism's support of Israel is rooted in a religious belief that the Jewish people have to be in control of Israel before they're slaughtered. It's a millenarian death cult with nuclear weapons. It's not semantics, they're just liars and fools. There were Jewish Nazis, now we have Jewish neonazis. Greed knows no bounds.

      Nazism =/= antisemitism, and purposely coercing the two like that is ignorance. "I can't be a nazi/neonazi/facist because I'm jewish" didn't even work for actual jewish nazis. Christ.

  I hear raw milk is good for you.

    I hear that too. But I also hear of the occasional death when the unpasteurized milk has a pathogen in it. It's rolling the dice.

    you couldn't write a joke with this but here we are. fiction could never predict this reality, its too stupid to be believable.

    A few weeks back a friend hit was traveling in a co-worker's car on a freezing cold day and hit a deer and called us. The next day my wife was driving that direction, picked it up and hauled it back to a friend's place where they cut it up. It's in our fridge right now.

Worth noting that Rollins is the same USDA Secretary who advocated for Americans to keep chickens in their yards to counter rising egg prices. Besides that not making financial sense, it also creates even more vectors for H5N1 to spread.
