The R-CALF USA Round Up

The Corporate Transparency Act was passed into law under most people’s radar, and many, including R-CALF USA, have raised concerns about its impact on small business owners and rural America. On today’s episode, we sat down with Phillip Taylor and Bobby Clayson to discuss our joint lawsuit fighting back to stop the Corporate Transparency Act from being forced down the throats of all Americans and threatening the existence of small producers and small businesses.

As I’m sure you’ve noticed, much of the world has bought into the lie that cattle are destroying the planet. With things like USDA’s climate smart commodity project, natural asset companies, and carbon credits, it makes you wonder, has the cattle industry itself bought into that same lie? Independent journalist Jim Mundorf with Lonesome Lands joins us to discuss these hot topics, how mandatory ID and the checkoff play into this, and how we push back.

These days, mandatory animal ID and property rights have been in the hot seat so let’s talk about their connections to global warming, climate hysteria, and control.

It’s no secret that wolves are a huge problem for American ranchers in many Western states, but the heartbreaking attacks on livestock just serve as an example of something bigger. We sat down with Colorado rancher and journalist Rachel Gabel to break down to ballot box biology of Colorado’s wolf reintroduction and the door it opens to the attack on rural America and private property rights. You may not be from Colorado and you may not have wolf problems, but make no mistake this issue applies to you and your ranch.
