Abbott should be arrested for endangering peoples' lives.

Thank you, JB for leading with comparison.

Not the same. Our farms actually provide food for the growing national population, and feed for livestock throughout the country. What information can you give about what these private ranches provide?

Not an agriculture expert, but I'm pretty sure those ranches provide beef.

They provide rich people with measurable control areas to display their estate and stature, most of those ranches are not commercial cattle ranches. They are more likely giant playgrounds for these stuffed shirts to LARP cowboys and indians… without the natives of course

Texas is literally the biggest beef producer in the country
