(Zero Hedge)—US Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris visited Pittsburgh for the Labor Day holiday with President Biden. There, she declared that United States Steel should remain domestically owned and operated, yet another high-profile critic of US Steel’s proposed sale to Japan’s Nippon Steel.
“US Steel is a historic American company, and it is vital for our nation to maintain strong American steel companies,” Harris told the audience at Union Hall in Pittsburgh, where US Steel is headquartered.
She said, “I couldn’t agree more with President Biden — US Steel should remain American-owned, and American-operated. And I will always have the backs of America’s steelworkers.”
Harris commented on the Nippon Steel deal while visiting Pennsylvania on Monday. The state has become a critical battleground area as she is attempting to shore up support for blue-collar workers ahead of the November election.
“I will continue to count on the strength, the determination, and the hard work of the leaders in this room to knock on doors, to get folks to the polls and, bluntly put … to help us win Pennsylvania,” Harris told the crowd.
Harris has revealed she is essentially a mirror image of Biden – not shocking whatsoever – and will follow the president’s pro-union footsteps. Her campaign’s block of Nippon Steel’s US Steel bid is identical to Biden’s.
Nippon’s planned $15 billion acquisition of US Steel has faced bipartisan political backlash since the deal was announced in late 2023. The Japanese company has conducted a bold lobbying campaign in recent months to ensure the deal goes through amid concerns about a faltering steel industry in the US.
Despite the critics, Nippon executives remain “confident” that its “acquisition of US Steel will revitalize the American steel rustbelt, benefit American workers, local communities and national security in a way no other alternative can.”
Meanwhile, Republican nominee and former President Donald Trump has also vowed to block the transaction. This is yet another policy that Harris closely aligns with Trump on.
In markets, shares of US Steel in New York were 6% lower in premarket trading around the mid-point of the $35 handle.
If US Steel’s headquarters weren’t based in a critical swing state and didn’t have large production facilities in the Pittsburgh area, Harris would likely have little to no interest in this.
Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef.
