The USDA’s electronic eartag mandate has been a red hot topic the past year. And like years past, we at R-CALF USA are fighting back each and every day to put a halt to it. Right now we are pushing back in Congress and in the courts. In October we filed another lawsuit to stop this issue once and for all, so we sat down with our attorney on this case, Kara Rollins, to give you all the details on this important issue.

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.

Global elites trying to monetize the air we breathe and control food production? Are we kidding? We wish we were, but plans for Natural Asset Companies are in motion, potentially leading to the largest property rights violation in American history. We sat down with property rights expert Margaret Byfield and Utah State Treasurer Marlo Oaks to find out what you need to know and what we need to do to stop natural asset companies.

You’ve no doubt heard that according to the global elites, the people who put food on our tables are at fault for climate change. The global war on farming and our ability to feed the world is real. The global concentration of power pushing these control narratives have amassed and must be addressed. Tune in as Dutch farmers’ advocate and internationally renowned political commentator, Eva Vlaardingerbroek covers just that.
