We'd been keeping them at bay for decades at the isthmus, if memory serves? Then a bunch of, ahem, "budget cuts" prevented keeping it up and they spread like wildfire

Yeah, DOGE was like "What is this? These stupid liberals are farming nuclear parasites! That must be fraud, waste, and abuse. Let's cut its funding."
Ironically one of the drugs that prevents this is ivermectin.
Bet you a fiver that since it’s actually for that purpose the MAGAts fight against it.
"It's a liberal plot to use up all the ivermectin before bird flu breaks out! Which is... uh... another liberal plot. But that's beside the point!"
"Godang Biden bringin' dem Kung Flu over 'ere wif dem godang Libtard policies. Now dem Maxicans fighting our ICE heroes with some godang flesh eating wurms. BARB!! Bring me ma godang UV enema and I'll fry this suckers just like I did with der godang CHY-NAH virus! No lube cuz mama didn' raise no godang bitch and I kinda like the way it tears my asshole a lil."
As a Texan, this was very easy to read
Until they're affected.
Nah they willing self administered that neurotoxin instead of getting a simple vaccine. We've been through this already. They're against anything they're told is good for them.
I thought Bro Jogan endorsed Ivermectin?
Ah, so the worm in RFK's head has been playing the long game
Maybe he'll let its friends move in and finish the job.
So wierd that flesh eating parasite is the least troubling headline today.
not for me...
Flesh eating worms! Coming to a neighbouring country near you soon!
Cattle ranchers, have the day you voted for...
It's the screwworm.
They may already have drilled into the brains of US plutocracy/leadership class ! Please keep an eye on any odd behavior from them lately..

Screwworms, which are a fly larva and incredibly painful...
The CDC still exist?
Rebranded as “Center for Disease Creation”.
One of those, "Everyone's fired. Oh wait, shit, come back to work!", situations
The don't need the CDC, just tell ICE they are illegals.
Ya see, Trump is woke and is waging a war on cattle farming as a secret agent of the Vegans and Climate activists. Cattle methane emissions are going way down and diets will have less meat.
Damn, I got it all wrong ! Thanks anyway :-/
I thought it was already ruling the us?
Don't worry, it's just texas 🤷♀️ the cowboys can handle it with their guns, I guess /s
Oh boy, and you've got RFK Jr on the case.
Is it weird that I'm cheering for a flesh-eating parasite?
I hear those pair nicely with the brain eating ones.
LLM warning for those who are triggerable.
Broad Definition of "Wound": The fly doesn't need a major injury. It can lay eggs in something as tiny as a tick bite, a mosquito bite, a small scratch, or a shaving cut.
Natural Openings: The fly will lay eggs in or near the nose, mouth, eyes, ears, and genitals. In these cases, no "wound" is necessary; the larvae hatch and burrow directly into the moist tissue of the orifice.
Kind and of scary, just wake up one day and feel something nomming away inside your eyelid.
Oh no
