The left has struck again with their latest attempt to pin the rising price of eggs on Trump, spinning a tale that feigns concern while conveniently ignoring the real culprits. As if one can reverse five years of economic mismanagement in just three weeks, the Democrats hammer away at the narrative that Trump’s administration is to blame for egg prices soaring sky-high. They clutch their pearls over the inflated costs and whip up a frenzy, but here’s the kicker: the bird flu hysteria and rampant poultry culling are the hidden hands behind the egg prices.
The public health overlords have decided to play God, ordering the indiscriminate slaughter of hundreds of millions of birds since 2022 due to the H5N1 strain of bird flu. It’s a staggering figure that would make anyone’s stomach turn. But never mind that; that’s just part of the government’s traditional response to infection control across administrations. According to an epidemiology professor at Emory, this has always been the song and dance of the USDA. The greater tragedy here is that the Democrats conveniently dodge this detail while pointing fingers at Trump, as if he’s hosting a huge egg roast without a care in the world.
Eggs 🥚 Whole Foods is out!

The fallout? Grocers like Costco, Kroger, and Whole Foods have taken it upon themselves to limit the number of eggs that regular folks can buy. Apparently, shoppers stockpiling eggs became such a trendy TikTok phenomenon that stores were left wondering what happened to their supplies. It’s not like egg lovers were hoarding their breakfast essentials under normal circumstances. Oh no, it’s merely a symptom of a policy gone haywire, courtesy of government interventions.
In a rather ironic twist, Whole Foods crafted a sign that read they were facing challenges sourcing eggs meeting their “strict animal welfare standards.” As if the health bureaucrats weren’t causing this chaos themselves! The broad-stroke policies enforced under the guise of public health have wreaked havoc on the poultry sector. What was once a simple breakfast staple has now become a scarcity, with public perception molded into a panic around Trump, conveniently glossing over the government-driven disasters.
To add insult to injury, it’s imperative to note that this isn’t the first rodeo for the government and its convoluted responses. The parallels between the avian flu scare and the initial COVID lockdowns are striking—both feature a heavy-handed governmental approach that leaves the populace panicked, the economy wrecked, and the government blaming invisible enemies instead of taking accountability. As more and more information leaks about the supposed health measures, it becomes crystal clear: the real virus may be found in the far-reaching effects of government intervention itself. In this new market for misinformation, where even simple egg prices are politicized, the reality remains: it’s time to crack open the truth.
