Farmer Bill’s Meat Snacks
Do you like jerky? Then you will love biltong.
Jerky is tough and dry. But biltong has marbling like a ribeye steak and is super tender.
How? It's air-dried, unlike jerky, which is cooked. And the air-drying process gives it 30% more protein per ounce than jerky.
Why I recommend Farmer Bill’s: It’s a rancher-owned company, sourcing beef and bison from the grasslands of South Dakota. Their biltong is:
🐮 Grass-fed, grass-finished
💪 High-protein snack
🇺🇸 100% American beef
🚫 No nitrates
🚫 No sugar
🚫 No processed ingredients
Translation: clean, simple, high-protein meat snacks you’ll actually crave.

Vance, the Fraud Czar
President Donald Trump signed an executive order creating a new federal task force to combat fraud in government programs, tapping Vice President JD Vance to lead the crackdown.
The details: The Task Force to Eliminate Fraud will coordinate a government-wide effort targeting fraud across major federal benefit programs.
The effort targets fraud across housing, food stamps, cash benefits, and major health programs like Medicaid and Medicare.
The task force will roll out a national crackdown - tougher ID checks, stricter documentation, and real audits.
Agencies will be pushed to stop fraud before it happens, flag bad actors faster, and go after organized fraud rings.
Why now: The move follows a series of high-profile fraud cases across multiple states.
Administration officials cited large-scale schemes in Minnesota and California that diverted funds from programs intended for vulnerable Americans.
In one case, federal officials flagged hundreds of millions in questionable Medicaid reimbursements.
The numbers: The U.S. spent over $1.2 trillion in welfare programs in 2025.
The big picture: Officials warn fraud has reached a scale that could undermine the long-term viability of America’s safety net.
Fraud Czar: When a reporter asked about social media posts calling him the “Fraud Czar,” Vance responded with a laugh: "I like Fraud Czar, it's certainly what we're going to do!"
The last word goes to VP Vance, who wrote on X:
“It is a disgrace that American children and families are being defrauded by people who hate this country. I'm proud to lead the Administration's task force on fraud and I'm thankful to President Trump for entrusting this task to me.”

Mamdani pays $1.9B to put homeless in hotels
New York City will spend nearly $1.9 billion over three years to house homeless residents in hotels, extending a strategy used
The details: Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s administration finalized a $1.86 billion contract with the Hotel Association of New York City Foundation. The agreement includes up to 300 hotels across the city.
NYC currently has a $929 million contract with the Hotel Association that expires in July, which provides up to 10,651 rooms for the homeless.
Critics argue the contract resembles a no-bid arrangement.
The numbers: Assuming the new contract covers the same 10,651 rooms, the city would be paying about $174,631 per room over three years – or $58,210 per homeless person annually.
Zoom out: NYC is looking at a $2.2 billion budget deficit in 2026 and $10.4 billion in 2027.
Back up: These contracts began during the illegal alien crisis that faced the city during the Biden regime, where up to 100,000 people per night were looking for a plce to sleep – the highest since the Great Depression.
Today’s scale: New York City has more than 85,000 people a night looking to sleep in shelters.
Real talk from G: It sounds like the NYC hotel industry got high on the 2022 illegal alien crisis, where then-Mayor Eric Adams paid exorbitant hotel rates to house illegals. Now that President Trump has closed the border, the hoteliers see the homeless as their new cash cow. And NYC Mayor Mamdani is eager to please them rather than find real, long-term solutions to his city’s homelessness crisis.
