The Biden-Harris regime’s questionable handling of the nation’s food supply chain—leading to the culling of 150 million egg-laying chickens amid the avian flu crisis—has led to nationwide supply disruptions and record-high egg prices. There were no visible countermeasures Biden officials put in place to offset the loss of domestic production, and the out-of-control culling only created an epic disaster for consumers. Now, the Trump administration is left to manage the fallout, scrambling to secure global egg supplies in an urgent effort to stabilize prices.
On Thursday, Elon Musk wrote on X, “It’s true. There was an insane slaughter of 150 million egg-laying chickens ordered by the Biden administration.”
The mass culling of chickens infected with avian flu—or at least what the prior administration claimed—was part of the USDA’s “stamping-out policy.” Whether depopulating entire commercial flocks was the right approach remains to be seen.
According to Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council, the previous administration’s approach was simply “to just, you know, kill chickens.”
Speaking to CBS last month, Hassett stated, “They spent billions of dollars randomly killing chickens within a perimeter where they found a sick chicken.”
On Tuesday night, Trump told a joint session of Congress that “Joe Biden especially let the price of eggs get out of control. The egg price is out of control. And we’re working hard to get it back down.”
