They’re taking our jerbs!
The good folks of Dawson County, Nebraska need to take a deep breath, and consider the bigger picture. They’re finally getting Calibri font out of government documents, and the White House is getting vandalized. Losing some hamburger factory in the middle of buttfuck nowhere is a small price to pay.
Two in the thoughts, one in the prayers.
I’m sure they’ll find a way to blame it on (a) Biden, (b) Democrats, © immigrants, and (d) woke liberals.
There is no or.

Per the article:
Tyson, the meatpacking giant that employs about 3,200 workers in the town, will leave all of them without jobs when the facility closes on Jan. 20.
Per Wikipedia:
As of the 2020 census, the population of Lexington, Nebraska was 10,348.
So about 30% of them are without jobs. That’s a HUUUUUGE blow to their economy.
Per this article:

While expanding access to Asia, Brazil also made significant inroads into the U.S. market. In May alone, it shipped 175 million pounds of beef to the U.S., five times the volume of May 2024.
All they need to do is learn Portuguese and relocate to Brazil. FTFY.
A 30% drop in employment is plenty to destroy a town.
Here’s hoping the next Republicans they happily vote for (again) will finally fix the problems.
Have they thought about not being lazy and just pulling themselves up by the bootstraps? Surely they can easily pivot to available jobs in new industries for future and forward-looking technologies that our government has fostered to prevent large permanent job losses when volatile or transitional roles are threatened or eliminated? Right?
MS NOW reported Friday from Lexington — the county seat of Dawson County, Nebraska, a place Trump carried easily with more than 74 percent of the vote last year. Tyson, the meatpacking giant that employs about 3,200 workers in the town, will leave all of them without jobs when the facility closes on Jan. 20.
The PROBLEM is that there’s too many LIBRULS in the Government that Republicans control EVERY house of at the Federal and State level!
