It’s hard to see how Costco manages to keep prices as low as they do when they have to deal with crap like this:

Costco was forced to recall nearly 80,000 pounds of butter because the label failed to mention that the kitchen staple contains milk…

In case any bureauweenies are reading, I’ll note here that by definition butter is made out of milk.

The FDA sent out an initial recall for 79,200 pounds of Kirkland Signature butter due to the undeclared allergen in October. Packages for both the salted and unsalted Kirkland Signature Sweet Cream Butter list cream as an ingredient, but do not include an allergy warning that the butter “Contains Milk.”

Milk is disfavored by moonbats, possibly because they associate it with motherhood and wholesomeness, both of which conflict with their agenda. Also, they believe milk is racist, presumably because it is white.

Too bad they didn’t take the 80,000 pounds of butter and make a giant statue of brainless Big Government incarnate, Kamala Harris. As the butter rotted it would become ever more appropriate.

FEMA under Democrat control isn’t merely useless but worse than useless, because it not only fails to help but prevents private citizens from doing so:

Try to bring in supplies to those abandoned by their expensive government and you might be arrested:

If you do manage to get supplies through, an unmarked military helicopter flown by people wearing masks might blow them all over the place:

If this seems incomprehensible, consider that FEMA falls under the subverted Department of Homeland Security, the secretary of which is hostile to the United States.

In the disastrous aftermath of Hurricane Helene, the Biden/Harris regime has been conspicuously unhelpful:

To say our supposed president has not been engaged would be putting it mildly:

When for once we actually have a use for the federal behemoth that taxes us into a condition of quasi-slavery so that it can bestow the money on foreign countries and illegal aliens, it isn’t enough to ignore us. The government actively prevents us from helping each other. Fabulously gay Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg forbids us from using drones to find those in need of help. Federal agents are reportedly blocking relief supplies.

Local authorities, possibly acting on orders from above, have not always been helpful either. Here’s what happened when a pilot tried to use his own helicopter to rescue Americans in distress:

Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas, whose focus has been on causing the Great Replacement to “blossom” throughout the country via illegitimate immigration, said just 3 months ago that FEMA was “tremendously prepared” for hurricane season. Now he says FEMA doesn’t have enough money to help — after bestowing over $1 billion upon illegal aliens.

The praetorian media was incurious regarding the federal response to Helene during today’s White House press conference. Since we cannot count on the MSM to tell us what has been going on, let’s turn to a North Carolina resident:

Reagan was right. The scariest thing you could hear is “I’m from the Government, and I’m here to help.” Here’s how the Big Government liberals running Seattle help delivery drivers:

Delivery drivers for UberEats, DoorDash, and other delivery services in Seattle saw nearly half of their business disappear compared to the same time last year after the city did them a favor and required a $4.99 delivery fee on all orders.

The money was supposed to go to the drivers. But it didn’t go anywhere, because customers didn’t spend it. Fees and tips add up. They opted to cook their own food.

It isn’t just Seattle:

In New York, the same predictable results are happening after the city jumped the minimum wage for delivery drivers to $19.56 per hour (up from an average of $5.39 per hour).

So predictable are these results that it is hard to believe they are not intentional. The purpose of minimum wage is to drive up unemployment so as to benefit the Party of the Welfare State.

Apparently the FBI/DHS/ETC were too busy painting transsexual flags on their fingernails to keep close tabs on us; the post office has been enlisted to help spy:

The U.S. Postal Service has shared information from thousands of Americans’ letters and packages with law enforcement every year for the past decade, conveying the names, addresses and other details from the outside of boxes and envelopes without requiring a court order.

Ninety-seven percent of “mail cover” requests are approved.

The IRS, FBI and the Department of Homeland Security were among the top requesters. […]

In 1978, a circuit court judge said the mail covers could expose someone’s personal life “in a manner unobtainable even through surveillance of his movements,” rendering “the subject’s life an open book.”

But at least they aren’t actually opening envelopes. I hope.
