Three Key Takeaways:
- Joel Salatin criticized the USDA’s approach to bird flu, claiming the government exaggerated the crisis and unnecessarily destroyed healthy birds, harming farmers and taxpayers.
- He exposed a cozy relationship between the federal government and Big Pharma, pointing out that effective alternatives to government-approved vaccines are being ignored.
- Salatin revealed the USDA’s overreach by claiming ownership of livestock, allowing agents to visit farms without warrants and use unreliable tests, prompting him to prepare resistance with support from his local community.
Joel Salatin has had enough of big government interference.
The renowned farmer is drawing a line in the sand.
And Joel Salatin just dropped a bombshell about the USDA’s war on sanity.
Salatin reveals the shocking truth about the bird flu “crisis”
Joel Salatin, the iconic Virginia farmer and outspoken advocate for sustainable agriculture, is taking a stand against what he sees as government overreach in the bird flu situation.
In a recent blog post, Salatin exposed the disturbing reality behind the bird flu narrative being pushed by federal authorities.
“The mainstream narrative you’re hearing about bird flu omits important aspects and exaggerates others,” Salatin wrote.
The farmer challenged the official claim that bird flu has caused sickness and death of 166 million chickens and turkeys in the past two years.
“Not true,” Salatin boldly stated. “Only a handful – perhaps 1-2 million – were actually sick. All the rest either never got sick or had been sick and gotten over it.”
The truth Salatin revealed is that the vast majority of bird deaths weren’t from illness but from the government’s heavy-handed “stamp out” program that kills all chickens in proximity to sick ones, regardless of their health status.
The government’s massive taxpayer giveaway to Big Pharma
Salatin also blew the whistle on Washington D.C.’s cozy relationship with pharmaceutical giants.
“President Biden, two days before leaving office, gave $500 million to Moderna to develop a bird flu vaccine, and that’s just one piece of the research monies given to drug companies,” Salatin explained.
This massive taxpayer giveaway came despite the existence of effective alternatives that the USDA refuses to even test.
“In fact, hypochlorous and CDS, along with some homeopathic remedies, have been shown to be highly effective. These anti-viral microbials are safe enough for humans to drink. But the USDA refuses to even run a trial,” Salatin wrote.
The USDA’s “certifiably insane” approach
Salatin didn’t mince words when describing the federal government’s approach to handling bird flu outbreaks.
“The ‘control by killing survivors’ remedy is not only mentally sick, it’s certifiably insane,” he declared.
The farmer pointed out that no flock, even in the worst outbreak, has suffered 100% mortality. In fact, most cases see significant numbers of birds that either resist infection or recover from it.
Salatin argued that the logical approach would be to preserve these survivor birds to build natural immunity – but that’s not what the USDA does.
“What could be more ridiculous than killing the chickens showing immunity, either by never getting it or getting it and getting over it?” Salatin asked.
He revealed that even government veterinarians privately acknowledge the real problem: “We all know this is coming from too many chickens in too high densities in too many houses in too close a geographical area.”
But these same vets admitted they would be “fired tomorrow” if they said this publicly.
The government claims ownership of your chickens
In perhaps the most shocking revelation, Salatin disclosed how the federal government now views America’s livestock.
“Between then and now, terminology in government regulatory documents use terms like ‘the national flock’ for poultry and ‘the national herd’ for cattle,” Salatin wrote. “In other words, the official position of the U.S. government is that these cows and chickens in our field are not ours; they’re owned by the government.”
This assertion of ownership allows government agents to visit farms without warrants, taking samples with unreliable PCR tests deliberately calibrated to find bird flu almost anywhere.
“Massachusetts (the first state agency to accuse the USDA investigative protocols as fraudulent) says anything above 30 cycles is fraudulent, because it can find bird flu detritus anywhere – on your table, in the air, your underwear and hair,” Salatin explained.
The USDA tests use 45 cycles – far beyond what responsible scientists consider reliable.
Salatin’s last-ditch plan to protect his flock
Facing this threat, Salatin has taken the unprecedented step of preparing for resistance. He’s secured the support of his local sheriff, who promised to intervene if federal agents arrive without a warrant.
But if they come with warrants, Salatin is prepared to call on supporters to physically show up at his farm.
“If agents come with warrants, we will put out an ALL POINTS BULLETIN (APB) to you, our loyal patrons, to come en masse to Polyface,” Salatin wrote.
“If 1,000 people showed up to block federal agents, to protect truth and sensible science, we’d have one exciting story,” he added.
Salatin, who has spent a decade breeding drug-free laying hens, refuses to let government agents destroy his flock based on fraudulent testing.
“We have no intention of letting a government agent find bird flu on a feather and condemn our birds,” he declared.
The farmer concluded with a call to stand firm: “When civilizations come to a crossroads like this, courage demands standing in the gap, or blowing a trumpet from the wall.”
