As I’ve mentioned before, collusion and price fixing is rampant in ag and I’d love to see more done to break it up.

Trump revoked the Biden initiatives and created a new task force to investigate anti-competitive practices in food-related industries   In other words, he kicked the can down the road. 

Trump did the same thing in 2020 and the investigation did not produce any meaningful action.  He should have built on what Biden started.  The other problem will be the incompetent hacks he installed at the DOJ and FTC.

Mn’s hero Nick Shirley gets called out (to his face) on his bullshit.

No, Brian Shapiro (Las Vegas radio host and podcaster of "Pushing The Limits") has not criticized Minnesota government officials for fraud. Instead, he has publicly pushed back against claims of widespread fraud in Minnesota programs (e.g., child care centers and welfare/Medicaid schemes often linked to Somali immigrant communities), framing them as exaggerated or politically motivated.

Mike Lindell, the chief executive of MyPillow and a leader of the election denial movement who was endorsed by President Trump for Minnesota governor this week, acknowledged that he is not registered to vote in the state he seeks to lead.

But Mr. Lindell, 65, said his biggest problem was not his registration status but that the Minnesota Republican Party had not supported his campaign, even after Mr. Trump publicly endorsed him.

The dude surely threw a lot of nasty shit against the wall and some of it stuck. Maybe he should investigate Trump's reflection pool shenanigans? Also, the Kennedy Center nonsense. And the ball room mess. Oh, and the crypto crapola. How about the Epstein files?

Misleading Timing: Investigations into his initial viral videos showed Shirley frequently showed up outside of normal operating hours or during shift changes, using empty building footage as false "proof" of ghost facilities.

Safety Concerns: Daycare centers naturally keep doors locked and windows blacked out or covered for the safety of children, which Shirley incorrectly categorized as suspicious behavior.

Aggressive Confrontations: Critics argue that he bombards low-wage workers and immigrant business owners with cameras and aggressive questions under false pretenses, causing unnecessary distress and intimidation.

Broad Sensationalism: Media law professors have noted that news influencers like Shirley often "prioritize fearmongering over fact-checking" to advance a specific narrative without looking for the other side of the story.

how much has trump made monetizing the presidency/?                     

Donald Trump's financial returns from his return to the White House generated more than $2.2nbillion to $2.4 billion in income during his first year back in office. This is more than triple his previous earnings and 6,000 times the annual presidential salary of $400,000.

According to his financial disclosures and independent analyses, the primary windfalls include:Cryptocurrency ventures: Over $1.4 billion, heavily driven by royalties and sales connected to his memecoins and the World Liberty Financial firm.

Real Estate & Licensing: Hundreds of millions from properties like Mar-a-Lago and Trump National Doral, along with global brand licensing deals.

Merchandise & Media: Millions generated from branded products, royalties on "celebration coins", signed books (like Save America), Trump-embossed Bibles, and fragrances.

Lock him up !!! Nick Shirley is a fraud. The fraud is not the fraud.

And also on July 10, from Mn State Rep and Chair of the House Fraud Prevention Committee, Kristin Robbins ...
"So grateful for our federal partners ....  & @nickshirleyy for bringing national attention to this case!"
