Agriculture Under Attack: The Great Reset’s Grip on Farming and Food Supply

On this Tuesday broadcast, Kim Monson examines threats to American agriculture and election integrity. Dr. Jill Vecchio, a physician and Iowa farm girl, sounds the alarm about private equity’s stranglehold on the farming industry through the Great Reset agenda. Colorado GOP Chair Dave Williams outlines the party’s legal challenge to restore closed primaries and prevent spoiler candidates from undermining Republican elections.

Private Equity’s Assault on Family Farms

Dr. Jill Vecchio exposes Indigo AG, a Boston-based company backed by billions in venture capital that has inserted itself into every level of farming operations. From renting land to seed production, satellite surveillance to transportation logistics, this single company now controls vast portions of the agricultural supply chain. Vecchio, who still owns farmland in Iowa, explains how her brother first alerted her to this rapidly expanding threat.

The company’s connections raise serious concerns. In 2020, Indigo AG placed the CEO of Moderna on its board of directors. The company develops GMO products for crops and is exploring mRNA technology in plants. Vecchio warns that articles now promote the concept of eating vaccines through genetically modified food. The consolidation strategy mirrors what has happened in healthcare and banking: control and destroy independent operators.

Corporate farming operations drive up land prices beyond what family farmers can afford, then offer premium rates to rent that land. After depleting soil quality through aggressive farming without proper stewardship, they simply move on to the next victim. Vecchio witnessed this firsthand when farmers who had abandoned her family’s seed corn business came back years later with ruined land that corporate operators had trashed and abandoned.

“These big companies, these huge private venture capital people, have their sights set on the farming industry and our food supply, and they’re not going to stop until they get what they want.”

Fighting to Close Colorado’s Primary Elections

Start listening at 75:10 – Hour 2

Dave Williams, the Colorado Republican Party Chair, provides updates on two major initiatives. First, the GOP has reached an agreement with Libertarians: if Republicans nominate pro-liberty, constitutionally-minded candidates, Libertarians will stand down rather than act as spoiler candidates. This addresses races like Congressional District 8 where Democrat Barbara Kirkmeyer won due to libertarian vote splitting.

Williams also details the party’s lawsuit challenging Colorado’s open primary system. Senator Kevin Lundberg chairs the legal effort, which argues that Republicans should choose Republican nominees and Democrats should choose Democrat nominees. The system was created by wealthy individuals like Kent Thiry who wanted to disrupt conservative victories by allowing Democrats to meddle in Republican primaries. Williams is working to raise $25,000 to launch the litigation through the Claremont Institute.

The chair addresses criticism from establishment consultants like Dick Wadhams, who Williams says has accepted money from Democrats to advance their agenda. Williams argues these failed consultants bear responsibility for the party’s decline by pushing candidates to abandon constitutional principles. The path forward requires building a broad coalition that includes moderate Democrats, blue-dog Democrats, unaffiliateds, libertarians, and conservatives who simply want less government interference in their lives.

“If we’re Republicans and we’re all about the Constitution and conservatism, then this is a great deal. And we’re going to avoid the spoiler candidates moving forward.”
