the the four largest meatpackers buy 85% of all cow and 67% of all pig

there are 759 billionaires in the us

it should be easy to figure out which oligarch/s will be responsible for the food crisis coming in the northeast and west coast

what will the magats do?   will they turn on them?   off with their heads?  send in the national guard to slaughter and process protein?

The daughter accused the staff of being "f***ing liberal." Police went to arrest them, but the daughter feigned injury by throwing herself to the ground and crying for help. The mother accused President Joe Biden and Democratic officials, along with billionaire George Soros, of orchestrating their arrest.

CNN is reporting that U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) has been instructed by the Pentagon, to prepare to use Military Assets, including C-130 and C-17 Military Transport Aircraft, for Migrant Repatriation Flights.

Trump will tell the USAF to load them in pallets and air drop.

Jamie Dimon channeling his inner Clayton Williams: https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/22/economy/jamie-dimon-tariffs-get-over-it/index.html

Quote

Tariffs are “an economic tool” or “an economic weapon,” depending on how they’re used, said Dimon, head of JPMorgan Chase, in an interview Wednesday with CNBC from Davos, Switzerland, where the World Economic Forum is taking place. “I would put in perspective: If it’s a little inflationary, but it’s good for national security, so be it. I mean, get over it.”

Congressional Representative Dan Crenshaw has ignited controversy recently with his public criticism of Apple Maps for refusing to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, following President Trump's executive order supporting the renaming. Crenshaw took to X (formerly Twitter) on January 21, 2025, tagging Apple CEO Tim Cook to express his discontent, which has sparked discussions about both the political motivations behind the renaming and the realities of map name changes.

The goal of the name change is the same as all language warfare. To inject politics into daily life and turn it into a place for more running battles and opportunities to either demonstrate solidarity or be noted as an opponent.  We are channeling Bolsheviks on this, it’s very Marxist. 

I would not say Marxist. I would say Authoritarian. I can think of a few examples where "right" wing groups did the same thing.

All else being equal, I tend to gravitate toward female doctors vs. male.  I think women are better suited to being doctors. 

Same here. I prefer to have a female doctor for the same reason. I find that the temperament and ability to do their job with more compassion is better than that of their male counterparts on average. We obviously have some male doctors on this board who are people I would trust, but overall women have been the best doctors I have had in my own experiences.

Politico has the article, but for some reason, I can't paste a URL here any longer.  Aside from that, here's a heartwarming story:

 

Your next congressperson just got pardoned

Quote

There’s no stronger evidence that Donald Trump is feeling the full measure of his recent victory than his sweeping pardon of more than 1,500 individuals charged with crimes in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.

It’s no surprise that Trump would pardon the rioters — both violent and non-violent. He suggested as much on the campaign trail. What’s stunning is the enormous risk of political capital at the start of his term.

In one of his first actions in office, Trump bucked a clear majority of Americans who, according to polls, oppose the pardon of all people convicted of crimes during the Capitol siege. And that’s not all he’s done. Trump also planted a political time bomb for the GOP which could detonate during his four-year term or after.

 

Quote

Put aside for a moment the message the pardons and commutations send about the consequences of political violence. Or the breathtaking scope of Trump’s move — in addition to the pardons, he also ordered the attorney general to pursue the dismissal of close to 450 cases that are still pending. Or the possibilities of recidivism among the more violent offenders.

Trump has just genetically altered the GOP candidate pool, undamming a river of highly motivated and radicalized prospective candidates who will be seeking elected office for years to come. Armed with the president’s blessing of their behavior from the “day of love,” their criminal records now cleared, they will be streaming into federal, state and local primaries.

 

 

Quote

Don’t believe it? Within a year of the storming of the Capitol, at least 57 individuals who either attended the Save America rally that preceded the riots, gathered at the Capitol steps or breached the Capitol itself ran for elected office. The majority of them lost, but that was before the whitewashing of the violence began, before the GOP memory-holed the entire experience and before a sitting, popularly elected president described rioters as “J6 hostages” whose prosecution was “a grave national injustice that has been perpetrated upon the American people.”

In Republican primaries where the nomination will hinge on MAGA bona fides, these candidates may have an edge: Trump, the single most powerful force in the party, has portrayed them as martyrs for the cause. And to many in the reconfigured GOP, the J6ers will be running as heroes — a recent CBS poll found that 72 percent of Republicans supported pardoning those who forced their way into the Capitol. Some will view them as not entirely different from courageous prisoners of war from yesteryear like John McCain or Jeremiah Denton, both of whom returned home after harrowing imprisonment and soon thereafter won election to Congress.

 

Spoiler

Some Republican traditionalists in the House and Senate have recognized the moral and political implications of the wholesale exoneration of a class of individuals who are connected to an event that will live in infamy. (More than 500 defendants were charged with assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers or employees, including approximately 163 individuals who were charged with using a deadly or dangerous weapon or causing serious bodily injury to an officer. Roughly 140 police officers were assaulted.)

But many chose to look the other way. In the future, they may not be able to. A surge of J6ers — who will not be lionized outside the confines of a Republican primary — stand to exacerbate a problem that has plagued the party in recent election cycles: the so-called exotic candidate.

That’s the political euphemism for the unelectable hardliners who manage to capture the GOP nomination but whose views prove so extreme that they blow what otherwise should be easy Republican victories.

It won’t be long before they begin showing up in the candidate pipeline.

POLITICO’s Juan Benn Jr. reports that as a small crowd of January 6 supporters stood outside the D.C. Central Detention Facility today awaiting the release of the remaining defendants charged with crimes, one of the more prominent J6ers made an announcement.

“We’re all coming for their jobs. We’re talking in Congress,” yelled 39-year-old Samuel Lazar, who was greeted with cheers.

Lazar, who charged the Capitol in a tactical vest with a radio attached while wearing camouflage paint on his face, admitted in court documents to spraying a chemical irritant at police officers. He claimed today that he never assaulted a police officer and that the police, in fact, attacked him.

A woman filming the scene for a livestream celebrated the occasion. “We got the real men back,” she yelled in response to Lazar.

I think that is the right move. I understand the intent to move the content to the platforms infrastructure, that all makes sense. But screen shots of tweets/bs/whatever are still bullshit. Focussing on primary source material is best. But that requires time and energy that most posters will simply not muster.

Tim Cook may have decide what battles are worth fighting. He and Apple are obviously about as high profile as it comes and failing to humor Trump can have negative impact to Apple. Trump could decide to place a 100% tariff on iPhones produced anywhere but America.  It would plummet Apple revenue and stock vs or you can change the name of the gulf in your map program. It sucks but it’s where we are.
