    I keep hearing people say
    that this or that candidate
    is completely screwed,
    or that this or that party
    is completely screwed,
    that this or that state
    is completely screwed,
    and I have also heard
    it reported
    that Arizona has had
    its first
    new world screwworm infection.

    @plaguepoems Another fine DOGE legacy. DOGE dismantled USAID (because they were investigating Elon Musk), and USAID programs that had successfully contained screwworm to a single region in Panama were suddenly gone and screwworm immediately started spreading. Since most cattle raised in the US are imported as calves from Central America, due to economics, and now they are no longer being inspected for screwworm when imported, it is completely predictable that screwworm is spreading in the US.
