Dr. Naomi Wolf: The War on Ranchers and the Decline of Food Freedom

Dr. Naomi Wolf: The War on Ranchers and the Decline of Food Freedom

Food Meets Freedom: The Untold Battle Over Your Grocery List

Meet the Trio That’s Turning the Kitchen into a Battlefield

  • Breeauna Sagdal – Senior Policy Fellow at The Beef Initiative; she’s the one pulling the strings behind the scenes.
  • Dr. Naomi Wolf – a former political consultant turned Pulitzer‑winning journalist; she’s the voice of conscience.
  • Brian O’Shea – counter‑intelligence guru, wife‑witness to the louder side of politics.

These three hopped on a new podcast called “In the Lair”, and asked the hard question: who’s really feeding America?

Why Food Matters More Than You Think

It turns out that multinational conglomerates, global health bodies and some foreign governments got in on the sausage business — and have been quietly manipulating the food supply line. The consequence?

  • Local farmers are losing their frontlines.
  • Consumers are being fed a price‑watered story.
  • National security is slipping one grain at a time.

Enter the “Secret” 450‑K Page War Room

Dr. Wolf recounts a decade‑long crusade:

  • Three years of thorough work by 3,250 doctors and scientists—all volunteering through the War Room and Dailyclout research team.
  • They sifted through 450,000 pages of Pfizer’s internal documents that the FDA hid for 75 years.
  • Thanks to attorney Aaron Siri’s lawsuit, these files were finally released.

Yet, no one credited these scientists for their dedication—an affront that left many asking, “Where’s the acknowledgment?”

Myocarditis, Mosquito‑Difficultive Politics, and the Missing Call‑Out

In the next chapter of the story, a FOIA file revealed a covert email thread. Some notes suggested a small “myocarditis signal” in kids caught by Israeli health ministries. Instead of shouting “Drop the jab right now, folks!” officials tried a cover‑up. Highlights:

  • And the Senate hearing never invited the trio to testify.
  • Repeated threats aired against Dr. Wolf each month.
  • Brian’s experience in counter‑intelligence drove him to rally a lone voice against the shadows.

The Underrated Victory of Credit and Safety

“It’s not about me, it’s about the world,” Dr. Wolf explained. “Giving credit protects the people risking this fight, and keeps them safe.” The stakes are personal—threats against her husband keep her close to the brink.

What We’re Left With

This isn’t just about corporate glue, it’s about a national war for simple wheat, the very thing that ensures our everyday lives. They’re the ones that might cut across us all, and they deserve loud applause.

The USDA’s Labeling Scam Is IP Theft

Digging Into the “Plagiarism” of Food Labels

When Sagdal talks about what she calls “plagiarism,” she’s not referring to copying a poem but to a stealthy overhaul of the Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) system.

Back in 2015, political pressure from the Big 4 companies and the World Trade Organization nudged Congress to abandon COOL. The result? Multinational meatpackers could stamp “Product of USA” on meat that was simply processed in America, regardless of its actual origins. Sagdal warns that this is more than a hiccup—it’s a form of intellectual property theft.

From Label to Lock‑In

  • Origin names disappeared from the USDA’s shelves.
  • Smithfield shipped premium pork to the PLA, sidelining local producers.
  • The WHO turned land‑use debates into public‑health headlines.

This isn’t just about regulation; it’s a subtle regime change where food becomes the battleground.

Ranchers Vanished Behind the Scenes

Just like researchers in Wolf’s team, American ranchers ripple through a 2‑to‑3‑year journey before a product can hit the shelves. Yet, without credit, their hard work—labor, genetics, and standards—gets swiped away, piling the blame on the generic “American beef” label.

So next time you see a “Product of USA” sticker, remember it’s not just a tag—it might be a whisper of culinary theft.

When the Farm Turns Into a Supply‑Chain Mystery

Picture this: a kid thinks they’re buying a nice, grass‑fed steak, only to find out it might have been raised in a pig‑pen in China, shipped across the U.S. on a conveyor belt, and sold in a local grocery store. It’s the kind of plot twist that makes you go, “What’s going on here?”

From Trust to Terror

  • Naomi Wolf’s sharp shock: “That’s a betrayal of trust at the highest level.” She’s not joking about the whole counterfeit‑on‑the‑plate situation.
  • Wolf says she struggles to decide whether the “grass‑fed” label is a lie. “I can’t even know if this came from Brazil or China and was just run through a conveyor belt in Nebraska?” she states, sounding like someone who’s just heard a bad joke.
  • She’s left feeling like a spy: “Nothing better than an uncertain steak and a pandemic in my pantry.”

The Smithfield Saga

  • Chinese‑owned Smithfield Foods is genetically engineering pork to triple protein content. The plan? Shipping that meat back to China for the People’s Liberation Army. The cellar side of that plan? It’s sold to the American public.
  • O’Shea flips the script: “the military wants the upgraded pork, we get the leftovers.” He describes this as a “national suicide.”
  • Wolf follows up: “They’re selling it as if it’s American beef, but it’s not American beef. All the resources that go into making American beef are being appropriated… This is exactly the same as IP theft.”

One Health: A Trojan Horse in Bio‑Security

  • Under the WHO’s One Health framework—endorsed by 193 countries—global leaders can re‑define disease control to include things like water rights and farming practices.
  • O’Shea complains that this is “the same thing that Mao was doing.” He says a pandemic has become a means for “excessive surveillance” with an army of specialists at ranches.
  • Wolf calls it “the most invasive tyranny ever devised, wrapped in the language of care.” The only thing that’s missing is a circus.

Unrestricted Siege Warfare in the U.S.

  • Thanks to a clandestine doctrine called Unrestricted Warfare, China allegedly aims to be a global hegemon by 2049.
  • O’Shea sees this playing out as a siege on the U.S.: “If you kill all of our food, poison the water, you’ve basically surrounded us.”
  • Sagdal reports that 77 family farms are being lost each day, and cereal cattle are at a 70‑year low. The bottom line? “We’re losing the ability to feed ourselves as a nation.”

Hope on the Horizon: Radical Self‑Reliance

It’s a call to action: take back control of your food. Imagine a summer morning where you wake up, brew a fresh cup of coffee, sniff the wild crisp air, crack the eggs from a backyard coop, harvest zucchini from a garden, and forget super‑market chains. That’s the dream. That’s the bottom line.
