How Trump Makes Us Sicker

https://activitypub.writeworks.uk/2026/08/how-trump-makes-us-sicker/

What’s for supper?

Rojie asks:

If you had a personal chef, what would you make him/her create for you?

Desserts. Lots of delicious desserts that look like chocolate and smell like chocolate and taste like chocolate and smear all over my fingers and lips like chocolate that have lots of protein and no fat or artificial sweeteners or calories

I like to cook a lot but I don’t really have the time to cook what I’d want, and often when it gets close to dinnertime I’m too tired to start making something exciting. So with a personal chef I’d have them make dinners that I’d like to make. I’d have them make dinners that were plant-based with 40 grams of protein and using no oil in the process.

And now that I’m thinking about it, my personal chef will have to make those dinners with no fresh vegetables or fruit because I’m fine being paranoid about Cyclospora and not taking chances. I don’t like the word “explosive” to precede any bodily function that might happen to me after eating food. So everything will have to be cooked until 158°F (70°C), or until we, as a nation, come to our senses and realize just how important Federal health agencies are to… I don’t know, health? Safety? People? Life? The US response to the worst Cyclospora outbreak in history? Put a ‘major tariff on Mexico because of the lettuce’. Apparently that was supposed to be a joke but with nearly 12,000 people sick and more states added to the list, it’s not funny. It’s about as funny as threatening to put a “big tariff” on Canada because of wildfire smoke crossing the border.

I guess when one’s diet consists of red meat, fast food, sweets and pop (or soda to you folks that live in a different part of the country than I do and don’t know that pop is the correct word for pop), protecting 340+ million people from a foodborne parasite might not be high on their to-do list. Just scrape that lettuce off the Big Mac and you’re good to go.

And speaking of tariffs, where are the $2,000 tariff dividend checks? What’s that? In the mail? Got it.

And still speaking of tariffs, the US supposedly collected $194 billion dollars – look at all the zeroes: $194,000,000,000 – from tariffs in 2025. With that kind of money lying around, why did the US House – right before their month-long vacation – have to approve an additional $95 billion for the war in Iran this past Wednesday? Why not just take it out of $194 billion? It’ll be equal parts interesting and nauseating watching what happens when the US Senate votes on it. They probably take a month-long vacation too, who knows.

When’s the last time you had a month-long vacation? I quit a job once and took a three year vacation but that’s another story.

Well, this went a little off the topic so it’s time to stop. But what a way to work up an appetite! Now it’s time to go eat breakfast. I wonder what I have that’s still safe to eat and won’t cause explosive anything?

Changes are always gradual, but Tuesday November 3rd will be here sooner than you think.

#TaylorFarms Spent Big on #MAGA and #AntiRegulatory #Lobbying Before #Diarrhea Outbreak

The company donated more than $3.6 million to #conservative groups between 2020 and 2025, including $1 million to the #MAGAInc. #SuperPAC.

by Kate Taylor, Jul 21, 2026

"The lettuce supplier at the center of the turbo diarrhea outbreak has spent millions of dollars to sway sentiment around #FoodRegulation and elect Donald Trump and other MAGA Republicans, according to public filings.

"Taylor Farms donated more than $2 million to conservative political groups in 2025, according to Federal Election Commission filings. That includes a $1 million donation to MAGA Inc., the Trump-centric super PAC, and $1.1 million to other super PACs dedicated to electing Republicans.

"From 2020 through the end of 2024, the company donated more than $1.6 million to conservative PACs, including a total of $850,000 to #AFPAction, an anti-regulation super PAC with ties to the #Koch network.

"#BruceTaylor, the chairman and CEO of Taylor Farms, is also a longtime donor to Republican causes. Since 2020, Taylor has personally donated more than $900,000 to Republican PACs and candidates, including contributions to Texas senator #JohnCornyn and Tennessee senator #MarshaBlackburn."
