Rep. Eric Burlison, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Missouri's 7th district, has recently taken to social media to express his concerns and positions on various issues. His statements reflect his views on government spending and practices within federal agencies.
On February 6, 2025, Rep. Burlison criticized the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for allegedly honoring individuals involved in controversial practices. He stated, "Today I discovered that the USDA has enshrined vile individuals like 'Dr. Dubey' in their Hall of Fame for the grotesque practice of purchasing dog and cat meat from China to feed to lab dogs and cats in the U.S." He further emphasized his disapproval by highlighting taxpayer money being used for what he termed "kitty cannibalism."
