The internal Department of Agriculture (USDA) communications — obtained by Americans for Public Trust (APT) and shared with Fox News Digital — show that Kessler was involved in initiatives to "transform" the U.S. food system and to crack down on the meat industry for high prices. Kessler was the only individual on the email chains who wasn't affiliated with the USDA.
"These emails reveal that Eric Kessler has direct access to Biden cabinet officials and plays an intimate role in shaping this administration’s agenda," APT executive director Caitlin Sutherland told Fox News Digital.
"As the architect and operator of the largest dark money network in U.S. politics, Kessler’s cozy relationship with Secretary Vilsack raises questions about the level of influence his foreign-funded Arabella network has on the Biden administration and its policies," she continued.
On July 15, 2021, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack emailed Kessler, Marty Matlock, a USDA senior advisor for food systems resiliency, and Matthew McKenna, a former senior advisor to Vilsack, expressing his excitement about a food processing initiative that he noted the three were helping to "direct and lead."
"Gentlemen- woke up very early this morning thinking about the processing project you are helping to direct and lead," Vilsack wrote in the email. "I can tell you from the response I have received to date there is excitement over the possibility of this helping to create a more dynamic and competitive market."

Selling access. It is the Biden system.
Well over 100 food processing, and storage facilities blown-up, badly damaged or destroyed — with surely more to come — to seriously-interrupt the Nation’s Food Chain.
The Biden administration coordinated with Eric Kessler, the founder and principal of the Arabella Advisors consulting firm, which oversees a behemoth liberal dark money network, on key agriculture policy issues, according to emails obtained by Fox News Digital.
The internal Department of Agriculture (USDA) communications — obtained by Americans for Public Trust (APT) and shared with Fox News Digital — show that Kessler was involved in initiatives to “transform” the U.S. food system and to crack down on the meat industry for high prices. Kessler was the only individual on the email chains who wasn’t affiliated with the USDA.
“These emails reveal that Eric Kessler has direct access to Biden cabinet officials and plays an intimate role in shaping this administration’s agenda,” APT executive director Caitlin Sutherland told Fox News Digital.

On July 15, 2021, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack emailed Kessler, Marty Matlock, a USDA senior advisor for food systems resiliency, and Matthew McKenna, a former senior advisor to Vilsack, expressing his excitement about a food processing initiative that he noted the three were helping to “direct and lead.”
“Gentlemen- woke up very early this morning thinking about the processing project you are helping to direct and lead,” Vilsack wrote in the email. “I can tell you from the response I have received to date there is excitement over the possibility of this helping to create a more dynamic and competitive market.”
Copied on the email were Vilsack’s chief of staff Katharine Ferguson and Mae Wu, the USDA’s deputy under secretary of marketing and regulatory programs.
The remainder of the July 2021 email was redacted because it contained information that was “pre-decisional” and deliberative, meaning it was related to a policy not yet in effect.
“I believe the pipeline will fill quickly,” Kessler responded 20 minutes later. “This is striking a real chord and filling a huge need. The feedback I’ve heard has been 100% positive around the initiative and the Department’s leadership.”
Then, shortly after Kessler’s response, Matlock indicated that he and McKenna had included the Arabella Advisors founder in conversations about the project.
“Matt, Eric and I have been in nearly daily conversation about elements and strategies,” Matlock wrote. “In short we are on the job, moving the many elements necessary, and building program strategies for implementation.”
Months later, in September 2021, Vilsack emailed Kessler and McKenna in an email that USDA completely redacted. However, Kessler responded, thanking Vilsack for the “kind invitation” and adding that he was “looking forward to it.”
***and to crack down on the meat industry for high prices.***
It was FDR who had cattle and hogs slaughtered and buried in the 1930s to get the prices UP!
Another version of the soybean/train cars part of Atlas Shrugged.
“crack down on the meat industry for high prices”
They want to force us to stop eating meat, to “save the planet”, but at the same time, Joe wants to keep the price of a pound of ground beef low so he can get re-elected.
depends on your social credit score
mine is less than zero
so i will be on a diet
“depends on your social credit score
mine is less than zero
so i will be on a diet”
Mine is right down there with yours. And, I suspect it will only go lower in the future.
Biden syndicate
Fixed
We need to bring back anti trust and monopoly enforcement.
It may be to late.
The Biden administration would have us live like it was in the old Soviet Union with long lines for food and empty shelves while the elites live in luxury.
Would be awesome if the article told us who “Kessler” is.

Sounds like a good time for a garden and greenhouse.
Biden’s mis-administration acting completely in lockstep with the WEF.
bkmk
The evil bastards will never stop. They attack us from every possible angle 24/7/365.
No nation could long survive what the USA is being subjected to.
