How Animal Cruelty Helps Fund the MAGA Movement

The factory farming industry has been one of the largest contributors to the new administration
and its key allies. These contributions have bought incredible influence, including tens of
billions of dollars sent to industrial operations engaged in inhumane practices such as
so-called “ventilation shutdowns.” Since 2022, more than 90 million poultry in 48 states have
been “euthanized” due to the bird flu outbreak which affects all animals. These factory farms
cause depletion and pollution of our natural waterways, and devastation to forests and natural
resources. Now more than ever, we must be aware of this basic food production information.
