Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) sparked widespread mockery Monday after both appeared on Newsmax to blame former President Joe Biden for the screwworm emergency now threatening Texas cattle — despite the Trump administration’s own cuts to the very monitoring programs designed to stop the parasite.
Rollins, who oversees the federal response to the first confirmed U.S. screwworm infestation in decades, pointed the finger squarely at her predecessor. „I do think it’s important to note that under the last administration, with the massive movement under the open borders policy, the cartels, et cetera, border security — that’s when it began to make its way back up toward America,“ she said, adding that when she took office in February 2025, „obviously not much had been done to push back.“
Marshall, a Kansas Republican who sits on the Senate Agriculture Committee, went further. „This is another thing we can thank Joe Biden for,“ he said, claiming migrants who crossed the southern border „brought this screwworm with them.“

No this is literally all Trump going back to Trump 1.0
He lowered funding for the operation in Panama.
They spread north to Mexico.
Biden sets funding to fight it in Mexico.
Trump’s policies piss off Mexico where they’re blocking any US government playing from entering their airspace.
It spreads to Texas.
No way around this Trump did this.

They talk of accountability, but they take none. They talk of integrity, but they have none. They talk of godliness, but it’s only the devil’s work they do.
Liars, cheats, bullies and cowards – the lot of them. Shame, I always thought religion encourage morality and a conscience, but now we know better.

These people are so stupid. To think that America has been dumbed down this much since the 2016 election is incredible.

Wow, Republicans lying, passing the buck, and never taking responsibility for anything. Imagine that!

How sad is it that Rollins doesn’t know screwworm is not spread via people, but cattle? With this kind of response, the cattle farms in Texas are doomed. When it spreads into horses, and other livestock, the ripples will be devastating. Abbott will be whining soon enough.

What’s a screwworm? All these people suck. Majority of sane people aren’t online all the time.

Trumpanzees are so stupid. Screw worms are magots not worms. They are transmitted by flies. Flies don’t care about boarders. A second grader can understand this concept.

It’s great to know that Shontel Brown, Melanie D’Arrigo, Ron Filipowski, and Juliet Jeske are rightfully pointing out that this is all on trump. Still, it would be great to hear Schumer, Jeffries, or anyone else held up as Dem leadership commenting. Maybe one of them could start a simple series of ‚You’re being lied to‘ posts. ‚Today’s installation of ‚You’re being lied to‘ focuses on the idea that Biden is somehow responsible for the screwworm. In addition to having left office on January 20th, 2025, almost 18 months ago, Biden had closed down the US-Mexico border to cattle a few months before then. Trump opened it up again in February, 2025 while he was also cutting 15% of the staff of the FDA which was tasked with monitoring screwworm to prevent this kind of thing from happening. There is a direct relation between actions trump took and consequences we are seeing now. You’re being lied to.‘ Do anything to attack the narrative.
