The second Trump administration’s USDA will be staffed by a lobbyist from the seed oil and snack food industry.
Seed oil fans in charge

Kailee Tkacz Buller Appointed as Chief of Staff of the U.S. Department of Agriculture
Kailee Tkacz Buller will serve as Chief of Staff of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Most recently, Kailee served as the President & CEO of the National Oilseed Processors Association and the Edible Oil Producers Association. Previously, Kailee served as Chief of Staff to the Deputy Secretary of Agriculture and held numerous leadership roles across the Department in the first Trump Administration. Governor Youngkin appointed Kailee as the 8th Congressional District Representative of the Virginia Board of Agriculture and Consumer Services, and she holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from the University at Buffalo.
Slap in the face
The Federalist reported (archive) that someone close to the MAHA psyop has called this appointment a “slap in the face to the MAHA movement.” That’s kinky.
Wellness influencers silent
Why hasn’t your favorite anti- seed oil crusader mentioned this? I think it’s because they’re AI generated, or about the same level of sentience.
Copes circulate that she’s a secret anti- seed oil agent working to destroy Big Seed from within, which is fascinating in the Jane Goodall sense. Thinking that RFK Jr will fix this also just reveals a person fundamentally doesn’t get what’s going on in this administration, which isn’t uncommon. The USDA has far more influence over our food supply.
If this appointment is at all surprising to you, your best next move might be to reconsider where you get your information. Cheers from the podcast zombie hellscape.
