USDA Stopping Plan to Reduce Salmonella in Poultry

Friday, April 25, 2025

The Trump administration is withdrawing a Biden-era proposal that aimed to reduce Salmonella in raw poultry products, arguing the new rule would have imposed "significant financial and operational burdens on American businesses and consumers," the Agriculture Department said Thursday.

What is this love affair Trump/MAGA has with disease?

It stems from their Old Testament Project 2025 ideas of how to punish their enemies.

@#1 ... What is this love affair Trump/MAGA has with disease? ...

Good question.

The GOP seems to be more of a "kill 'em off" party.

Just great (/snark).

Day by day they're gutting safety measures and regulations that keep us from harm.

Face it, Trump and his sycophants couldn't care less about our wellbeing or the wellbeing of America at large.

And with a drunk in charge of the Pentagon, the Chinese are likely having conversations about attacking Taiwan and taking advantage of the fact Hegseth fired the cybersecurity team at the Pentagon who kept hackers at bay. I'd guess a guy who sends war plans on a commercial network instead of the several uber secure government communication programs simply doesn't care.

They're gutting America in every way possible.

@#4 ... They're gutting America in every way possible. ...

It's been Pres Putin's plan to ~destroy America from within~ and his sock puppet seems to be carrying out that plan.

Hey you slackers think that it's gubmint job to protect you or something?

Come on! Stop being snowflakes. You weak Americans can't take hardship like the Chinese over there so we need to toughen you ladies up!

We will just go back to the old ways of herd protection. Back when America was great!

When a bunch of the "herd" start dying around us we stop eating chicken for a while.

See? Ez pz.

Overcooked chicken for EVERYBODY.

I'm sure Republicans will support this because safety regulations on foods we consume are too overreaching.

Wow. Our enemies in Western Europe will really be eager to buy chicken which otherwise would have been condemned. I'm certain the ace negotiator in the WH will get those Frenchies and ------ to step up prontodente. This is going so much better than the previous administration. Right?
