OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Agriculture Department is scrambling to rehire several workers who were involved in the government’s response to the ongoing bird flu outbreak that has devastated egg and poultry farms over the past three years.


The workers were among the thousands of federal employees eliminated on the recommendations of billionaire Elon Musk ‘s Department of Government Efficiency, which is working to carry out Trump’s promise to streamline and reshape the federal government.

Republican Rep. Don Bacon said the administration should be more careful in how it carries out the cuts.

While President Trump is fulfilling his promise to shed light on waste, fraud, and abuse in government, DOGE needs to measure twice and cut once. Downsizing decisions must be narrowly tailored to preserve critical missions,” said Bacon, who represents a swing district in Nebraska

I hope these people tell Trump and Musk to go to hell, while they now get a job in the private sector since serving the public is now considered being a useless, leeching, slob not something to be respected and valued.

No sane patriotic individual wants to work for someone who might accidentally fire them and then call them back a week later.
 
It's going to be one colossal mess-up to the next under this WEI Administration.

What's utterly astonishing to me, is the large number of people that have been fooled, absolutely misled and blissfully unaware of what's unfolding before them, I do not think there is another country in the world who's general population are so detached from history and reality and who don't care.

Hopefully, if Department of Agriculture can get them rehired to continue their work on the bird flu, killing the egg industry, they can seek private sector employment at their choosing, instead of being fired on some indiscriminate mass Musk employee elimination deal, without regard to what some are working on. I'm not worried about the employees so much, but would selfishly like to see the poultry industry recovered and the price of eggs drop, whether Elon and Donny care about the price of eggs in America or not. I like eggs. Maybe you don't. If you don't, I say don't buy them, but most of the rest of us do care about the price of eggs, and the poultry industry the produces them, whether You, Elon and Donny do, or not.

They want to roll this country back to a time White was Right and Women did not vote.

We need congressional republicans to start thwarting Trump's bull in a China shop policies. Until that happens nothing will stop this unfolding insanity.

Those republicans will only change their loyalty back to their constituents once they start screaming about eggs and the mutating bird flu virus that has already killed one person. So I want to see pain, pain resulting from Trump, it's the only way and if skipping omelets helps to unseat the new King and derail his insane agenda, so be it, fuck eggs.

Now if you love eggs, get some ducks/chickens, once setup you get fresh eggs every day, seven days a week. Duck eggs are quite a bit larger than chicken eggs and they cook/poach/fry just the same.

I have a theory too that I wish we'd tried when we setup our chicken enclosure and that is get one female duck and say four to six chickens (no rooster), raise them all together from chicks. If you do that all of the chickens will naturally regard the larger duck as boss and there'll be no infighting between the chickens.

Our duck is large, clumsy but passive and has no nasty streak in her, the chickens that were raised as chicks with her when she was also a chick, adore the duck and follow her everywhere.

The duck isn't the boss and has no desire to be, but the chickens that were raised with her, see her as boss and do not fight or compete amongst themselves to be boss.

You can forget Congressional Republicans. Donny will have them primaried and replaced if they make a peep, and their gravy train careers will end, and they will have to make their way in the private sector, along with everybody else Elon is getting rid of.

Right but if the constituents are outraged enough to sway their representatives then there's not much prospect of those constituents voting like they did in 2024. Trump might have less control over this than people seem to be assuming.

I don't see much else as an option.

Its going to be an interesting two years and then a mid-term, if we still have those, by then.

/---/ Mistakes happen, but they are quickly corrected.
 
Hey MAGAs !! Here is something else for you to chew on . Remember all that jabbering the price of eggs. Well those prices are not going down anytime some . Why you ask ? BECASUSE of the short sighted stupidity of DOGE and the Trump administration.

https://www.politico.com/news/2025/02/27/trump-fired-bird-flu-hires-00206334

The Trump administration touted a nearly $1 billion plan Wednesday to combat the spread of avian flu and mitigate skyrocketing egg prices as the outbreak rips through poultry flocks across the United States.

Oh really? And what do they intend to do with that money since they fired ¼ of the Department of Agriculture charged with combatting the bird flue. Just more smoke and mirrors . You are being gaslighted people . Here is more:



But the measures come as the Agriculture Department is struggling to rehire key employees working on the virus outbreak who were fired as part of the administration’s sweeping purge of government workers. Roughly a quarter of employees in a critical office testing for the disease were cut, as well as scientists and inspectors.

The dismissals have already helped trigger a partial shutdown at one of the department’s research facilities, according to two USDA employees, interrupting some workers’ efforts to fight bird flu and help livestock recover from illness.

And it is not only affecting chickens. Cattle are being infected and there have been cases of it jumping to humans. I hope that you ready for the next pandemic because massive cuts to the CDC and the National Institute for Health will mean that we will be ill-prepared for it and people will die. Nice work MAGA !!

The price of eggs is high because the Biden regime forced farmers to kill tens of millions of them.

So stop playing dumb. Unless of course you really are just that dumb.

The government doesn’t need to a part of anything in agriculture.

The government are the ones that forced farmers to kill all their chickens due to bogus fear mongering over “bird flu”.

How many chickens will die if the flu is allowed to spread?
