Biden,speaking in Michigan, seems to have a big bruise in the middle of his forehead. Anyone know what happened?
I can’t wait to get to Texas. Maybe have us some chickens on the place, a couple hogs, goats and a beef or two. Hope my boys like ranching.
They’re not gonna be happy until we’re all quadruple vaxxed every month, drive battery operated cars and eat bugs 3 Times a day.

“I am a capitalist.”
Pues claro-and Richard Nixon wasn’t a crook...

Yet another ‘problem’ which is CAUSED by progressivism and Fed.gov intervention
If he wants to complain the US meat-packing industry is too centralized (assuming that’s the problem) - then its because USDA and FDA stomped smaller packers out of existence with a host of regulations, imported labor, etc... only the big guys and their lawyers can afford to manage.
