    America The Titanic – Managing After Impact with the Disastrous Biden/Harris Iceberg

    America stands at a critical tipping point. This policy paper warns that recent federal resilience initiatives, advanced under the banner of equity, have centralized control across nearly all aspects of American life—from local governance to individual choices. To protect the foundational freedoms of America’s farmers and ranchers, the I Am Texas Slim Foundation calls for immediate executive actions to dismantle these mandates and restore power to communities, pushing back against what they describe as a coordinated agenda of control disguised as resilience.

    The Beef Shortage Was an Inside Job: How Global Imports, Policy Failures, and Monopoly Power Gutted the American Herd

    The so-called beef shortage isn’t just fallout from drought and inflation—it’s the endgame of decades-long corporate sabotage. Independent American ranchers were systematically squeezed out by foreign imports, packer monopolies, and the repeal of truth-in-labeling laws like COOL.

    A flesh-eating parasite known as New World Screwworm (NWS) has breached the long-standing biological barrier at the Darién Gap and is now rapidly advancing through Mexico, prompting an emergency livestock embargo along the U.S. southern border. The parasite, which infests wounds and mucous membranes with larvae that bore into living flesh, poses a grave threat to both public health and America’s already fragile cattle supply. USDA officials warn the outbreak could cripple domestic livestock production if not contained, calling it a national security crisis.

    America’s beef herd has plunged to its lowest level since 1951, driving up prices and threatening long-term food security. Ranchers are caught in a vicious cycle—selling off breeding stock under pressure—while foreign land grabs and regulatory barriers shrink their ability to recover. Rebuilding the herd isn’t just about burgers; it’s about sovereignty, survival, and restoring control over our food supply.
