PETER SWEDEN: 23 year old Quentin was beaten to death by antifa while he was protecting women activists protesting for women's rights.

We are Quentin, Quentin Deranque.
Across the world, we wanted to pay tribute to Quentin, lynched by the far left.

Today, his name resonates far beyond France, in Germany, Austria, Spain, the US, the Czech Republic, England, and even Orania, at the far end of Africa. Everywhere we are. 

DR. ANTHONY CHAFFEE: Two things that prove that humans were not meant to eat carbohydrates.


2:45  Two things that prove that humans were not meant to eat carbohydrates.  First is insulin.  Do you know that we have the wrong type of insulin for carbohydrates?  Think about it.  When we eat carbohydrates, our blood sugar spikes, insulin goes up but then blood sugar drops down too low because insulin keeps going, so we have to keep eating more carbs and more insulin.  We keep having this balance throughout the day, and we can't get our blood sugar right as a result.  Did you know that we had to reinvent insulin for Type 1 Diabetics and Type 2 Diabetics who require insulin? So instead of just giving   

DR. THOMAS FLEMING: The 1960s set in motion the destruction of the American middle class.

Dr. Thomas Fleming

Yeah, it kind of gives a whole new meaning to the lyrics by Kris Kristofferson in the 1970 song, "Me and Bobby McGee," released posthumously in 1971, of "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose."

     
00:00  I think that what we did in the '60s and '70s was largely to make war on all the little communities in America, to make war on local government, to make war on state government, to make war on the churches, to make war on the family, and the name of this game is "Personal Liberation."  So, for example, we had easy, "No fault" divorce, 1969 [in American; 1917 in Soviet Union].  That was the big revolution in the 60s and 70s.  And, of course, it turns out that women . . . this has been disastrous for women, because the man goes on with his high status income and women and their dependent children are left with nothing.  And I think that's a metaphor for a lot of what is, in fact, going on, and we have created a greater dependency of families and communities and individuals upon the national government, and I think all of that has been very bad.  I think it's not just that the 1980s are more liberal and accepting of things like drugs and social pathology, it's also that all of the places, where wholeness is created, where health and vitality are created, things like the family, things like local County governments, these have been eroded and torn apart and, in some cases, destroyed, including black community participation.  One of the things the Civil Rights Movement did unintentionally was to destroy the old black communal leadership in the United States and we see the price of that in the Inner City in Chicago and Detroit.

1:43.  You know there was no real conservative opposition in the 1960s.  The conservatives I knew then were obsessed with economics and getting out the vote and they didn't understand that the impulses behind the '60s revolution were as much reactionary impulses as they were leftist impulses.  The desire to restore Community, concern for the environment, a return to the isolationism, for example, of the pre-World War II period.  These were all hallmarks of American conservatism. Even something like folk music, which was so big in the 60s.  What could be more, ah, more reactionary, more conservative than a desire to resurrect the music of Appalachia, the music of our forefathers? People started wearing what they thought were old fashioned clothes.  They wanted to recapture they said they wanted to recapture the sense of frontier life and rural life.  And these are all very conservative impulses, but then you meet atypical conservative and all he wants is a house in the suburbs and two cars.  And they were the enemy.  So by not being conservative, by being nothing but cold, free-market Cold Warriors, they missed a great chance, and it's not going to come again.

3:05.  The labels Liberal and Conservative used to mean something fairly clear.  A liberal used to mean somebody who believed in the individual, who believed in the free market, who believed that you should break down all the barriers toward individual self-expression . . . this meant destroying the church or weakening the power of parents within their family, destroying social classes, all sorts of conventions, this is what liberals were in favor of.  

3:30.  What conservatives were interested in doing we're preserving a kind of cultural order, preserving a tradition, preserving a sense of sacredness; even if they weren't particularly religious themselves, they had to preserve that sense of the sacred.  And what happened in the 1940s and 50s was that conservatism got defined as . . . well, as what used to be called Liberal.  In other words, the free market is everything, the individual is everything, forget family, forget everything essentially but the marketplace and the defense of the nation, you know, because the old liberals were also great colonialists. And the people who called themselves liberals were, in fact, socialists, or worse.  What was somebody with something like a conservative worldview going to do?  There was no place.  [Besides being no place for Conservatives, there was already a Betrayal of the American Right in earlier years.]  There was no label.  There was no party.  There was no movement.  And it's like conservative environmentalist today.  The greatest environmental thinker, the most powerful philosopher of conservation today is Wendell Berry, 1934-_____, who is a conservative.  He lives off in his little farm in rural Kentucky.  He writes these books about how about managing his own little family farm.  He's a Christian. He's a traditionalist, but he's on the board of the Sierra Club.  Why?  Because there's no conservative organization that would welcome Wendell Berry. They think he's the devil incarnate, and that in a nutshell is the failure of American conservatism.  Not to make a place for the real social and cultural and moral conservatives who have surfaced from time to time.  Jack Kerouac, 1922-1969, was a conservative, and nobody knew that.

Why?

Why was he a conservative?  He thought of himself as a man of the right.  He was a patriot.  He was a rugged old-fashioned individualist, but he loved America.  He hated all this rise of America bashing of the '60s, and he's quite an interesting person. Obviously he was a moral anarchist in some sense, but way down deep he had these kind of impulses of a Baudelaire, 1821-1867, who is also a conservative . . . .

ADAM JOHNSON: What that means is that we're robbing other countries, emerging countries, 3rd world countries of their best and their brightest. And that is a terrible thing to do because you will keep them impoverished. the right thing to do would be to stop doing that.

If you need people to work in tech, things like that, they can do that in their own country.  They don't have to do that here.  Use the internet.  We all use that. There's no reason for them to be here.  --Adam Johnson

There's a reason the judicial branch is the third branch of government.  it's supposed to be the least powerful.  Now the only reason we don't require them to run for election is because they're supposed to be the least powerful, apolitical, dealing only with cases and controversies in front of them, not making public policy calls, but, of course, that's exactly what they're doing.  And we have to get rid of them.  I mean just like that we have on the immigration front, of course, we have to . . . all the illegal migrants have to go, but we've allowed a lot of legal migrants into the country who are not really culturally American.  They're not interested in actually assimilating.  They're just here to treat America as an economic zone.  But somehow they secured an H-1B, and then a green card, and they became a naturalized citizen, but they're not cultural Americans, however technical their American citizenship is.  We have to denaturalize those people and send them all home and we have to do the same with many of these judges. They're not acting as good faith legitimate judges and they should be impeached or removed for not serving during good behavior.

1:03.  I completely agree.  Even from the, from an empathy standpoint, right, when we talk about the denaturalizing people, when we talk about sending people back, if the argument exists, let's just take it at face value that we're bringing over the best and brightest.  What that means is that we're robbing other countries, you know, emerging countries, third world countries of their best and their brightest.  And that is a terrible thing to do because you will keep them impoverished.  You'll keep them.  So if you believe that we are bringing over the best and brightest at its face value, the right thing to do would be to stop doing that. If you need people to work in tech, things like that, they can do that in their own country.  They don't have to do that here.  Use the internet.  We all use that. There's no reason for them to be here.

1:42.  The way I like to put it is when we import these people, we're actually making both countries dumber.  So, I mean the average IQ in America is about 100, right?  The average IQ in India is about 75, which is prethity grim.  I mean mentally retarded is 75.  And you take an Indian person with a 90 IQ and you bring him to America, well you've made America dumber because you're lowering our average below 100, and you've made India dumber because you've actually taken one of their brighter citizens.  And no one needs bright Indians more than India.  I mean if you've ever been there, it's a train wreck.

2:14.  Absolutely.  I mean that is the message that I really do think that sending people back is a good cause. I think it is a good cause for those countries if you truly are someone who is altruistic, you should consider that.  Like you are keeping these countries impoverished by keeping them here.  And, you know, I don't think that what they're adding is a net benefit to our country.  I've heard arguments where, you know, we need people who can work in data centers who understand these things.  We need people to fill up our colleges. But again the . . . it's kind of like Florida schools, right?  Would we have to do things like having, you know, students that come into our migrant worker have to learn a second language, they bringing their kids with them.  Their kids also have to learn a second language. You are putting the rest of the classes, the ESL classes, like at a slower rate of education, which means that our kids are . . . our actual citizens, children, are not getting an education they deserve because they're being slowed by the influx of migrants that are here as well.  It is completely altruistic to say that we need to just cut off the faucet.  We need to get our country under control.  Send them all back and maybe we can redress the issue in 50 years when we've passed through two more generations that speak out against communism and get our school education back where it's supposed to be. 

ANDREW BRANCA: Justice Brett Kavanaugh — joined by Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito — argued that the plain meaning of “regulate importation” absolutely includes tariffs. And Trump immediately pivoted to Section 232, Section 301, and Section 122 authority — imposing a new 10% global tariff.

The Supreme Court (6–3) just ruled that President Trump lacks authority under the IEEPA to impose certain tariffs. Chief Justice John Roberts joined by Gorsuch and Barrett invoked the “Major Questions Doctrine.” But here’s what the headlines won’t tell you: Justice Brett Kavanaugh — joined by Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito — argued that the plain meaning of “regulate importation” absolutely includes tariffs. And Trump immediately pivoted to Section 232, Section 301, and Section 122 authority — imposing a new 10% global tariff. This isn’t the end of the tariff fight. It may be the beginning of a stronger one.

FOREST PARK PHARMACY: The biggest red flag so far is a sole proprietor operating in a van in rural New Mexico who has billed $76 million in 7 years. He's averaging 1,000 claims every day. That is some efficient work happening.

DOGE dumped all the Medicaid data online for everyone to see.  It's a massive file filled with everything Medicaid paid for so that we can dig through it ourselves to see where the money is going. This is huge and it's already showing some incredibly suspicious providers.  The biggest red flag so far is a sole proprietor operating in a van in rural New Mexico who has billed $76 million in 7 years.  He's averaging 1,000 claims every day.  That is some efficient work happening.  There's another single pediatrician billing 830 claims every day for the last 7 years.  He's up to $70 million.  Not bad for somebody whose practice is based in a residential apartment.  There are hundreds of these and they are so obvious.  This is the kind of thing that can only happen when the person paying is spending somebody else's money. Nobody is letting their own money fly out the window to a van in New Mexico. That's why our prices have to be competitive.  When you spend your own money, that matters.

MIGRATION POLICY INSTITUTE: Only about 18-20% of these immigrants come for work.

There has never been this much LEGAL immigration to the United States, nor for so long a period.

Since 1989 legal immigration has averaged 1,000,000 a year. For many of these years LEGAL immigration has topped 1.2 million.

Only about 18-20% of these immigrants come for work. 

The current administration has brought down legal immigration, and they expect to reduce it overall by 33-50%. Congress has to act, though. They must pass Chip Roy's PAUSE Act and stop all immigration until the system is rebuilt.

WHITE PAPERS POLICY INSTITUTE: [Legal] Immigrants can bring in their spouses, unmarried children under 21, married children of any age, their parents, and their siblings. All of these individuals can then sponsor their own families.

Most legal immigration to America is not for workers. It's chain migration. In any given year 65-70% of immigrants come on a family sponsorship. About 85% of all family sponsorships are from immigrants themselves, not native-born Americans. Immigrants can bring in their spouses, unmarried children under 21, married children of any age, their parents, and their siblings. All of these individuals can then sponsor their own families.

Oh, and most have access to the welfare system. 

ZARATHUSTRA: If a massive share of tech and software jobs are headed for extinction in the coming years, as the leading figures in AI openly say that they are, and millions of other white-collar jobs across the economy are about to be automated as well, why are we still pretending there is some pressing “need” for H1Bs and other “skilled” immigration?

Immigration enthusiasts have not updated their talking points for the world we are actually entering. If a massive share of tech and software jobs are headed for extinction in the coming years, as the leading figures in AI openly say that they are, and millions of other white-collar jobs across the economy are about to be automated as well, why are we still pretending there is some pressing “need” for H1Bs and other “skilled” immigration? There is no “need”. It does not exist.

If you want to talk about narrow carveouts for the genuinely singular, once-in-a-generation Werner Von Braun outliers who can do what no one in America can, fine. That is a different conversation. It is also not the one being used to justify mass inflows. 

THE CARNIVORE RN: Up until big corporate farms came along telling us that chicken is healthy for us, chickens used to run around farms providing eggs.

Chickens were never meant to be eaten, they were meant to give us eggs. Up until big corporate farms came along telling us that chicken is healthy for us, chickens used to run around farms providing eggs. When the chicken didn't lay anymore, they were slaughtered. The meat was so tough and lean that many farmers fed it to their dogs or pigs. Now, big corporate farms force a rapid growth on chickens to produce more meat, pump them full of who knows what, mass produce it for grocery stores, then tell us it's a health food. Chickens are only good for one thing - eggs.

Red meat is best 💪

Well… Inside in HR 7006, which was introduced and passed by the House last month, as of January 14, includes $3,531,975,000 for Global Health Programs through the State Department.

So I just learned that Bill Gates Bypassed RFK Jr’s withdraw from GAVI… 🤦🏻‍♂️ Remember when RFK Jr withdrew all U.S. Funding from GAVI (“Vaccine Alliance), in June 2025, which was co-founded by Bill Gates..? Well… Inside in HR 7006, which was introduced and passed by the House last month, as of January 14, includes $3,531,975,000 for Global Health Programs through the State Department. This funding is explicitly made available for pandemics, infectious disease outbreaks, global health security, zoonotic diseases, epidemic preparedness, immunization programs, and U.S. contributions AGAIN to Bill Gates’ GAVI and multilateral vaccine initiatives. This means the funding is now enacted and available for FY2026 (through September 30, 2026), routed via the State Department. This effectively BYPASSED the withdrawal of GAVI funding under Secretary Kennedy, at least for this fiscal year. This is messed up.

RAIR: [Buffalo Wild Wings] now serves zabihah halal hand-cut wings—hand-slaughtered facing Mecca with prayers to Allah recited over every bird.

from RAIR Foundation [Rise, Align, Ignite, Reclaim],

The local Buffalo Wild Wings has fully surrendered. The chain now serves zabihah halal hand-cut wings—hand-slaughtered facing Mecca with prayers to Allah recited over every bird. The meat is HMS-certified (Halal Meat Standards, the Sharia-enforcement racket run by Islamic gatekeepers), prepped and fried in completely separate areas to prevent any cross-contamination with non-halal food. Customers can still order most sauces—except the few that remain non-halal.

This is the first Buffalo Wild Wings location in Texas to go halal. Corporate leaders and activists are hailing it as a “huge moment” for halal foodies.

We call it exactly what it is: a food jihad victory—a stealth weapon of Islamic supremacists shoving barbaric, inhumane rituals into America’s red-meat heartland.

The certification comes from networks repeatedly linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Hezbollah, and their allies. Your casual wing order now funds the very groups advancing the cultural demise of the West.

Texas lawmakers once boasted about “banning” Sharia. That ban has proven meaningless. Halal mandates are already embedded in public schools, hospitals, prisons, and corporate cafeterias—often paid for by your tax dollars. Politicians talk tough while quietly subsidizing the takeover. 

Remember, there is no difference between "good Muslims" and "radical Muslims." 

Just remember JD Vance‘s position on Islam is exactly the same as Obama. They create the illusion, there are competing versions of Islam and that we as America should work with the “good” muslims against “radical” muslims. It’s complete strategic incoherence.  --John Guandolo

ANDREW BRANCA: 3rd World Migration Destroys America. How so? By killing the revered legal tradition of Trial by Jury due to inherent bias and prejudice in any multi-cultural society

Death of Trial by Jury: 3rd-World Migration Destroys America LIVE at 11 AM ET! Link in reply! One of the most revered legal and cultural institutions of America—embodied in the US Constitution itself, not just once but twice—is the right of trial by jury. The right to have one’s guilt determined by an impartial jury is deeply rooted in America’s history and even pre-history, dating back to English common law traditions and documents like the Magna Carta. Indeed, one of the 27 grievances cited by the colonists in the Declaration of Independence that led to the American revolution against England and the founding of our great and powerful United States of America was that the tyrannical British monarch was at fault “"For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury." Founders like Thomas Jefferson called trial by jury "the only anchor yet imagined by man, by which a government can be held to the principles of its constitution." John Adams described it (along with representative government) as "the heart and lungs of liberty," without which people would be vulnerable to tyrannical abuse. Later observers, including Supreme Court justices, have echoed this: jury trials prevent oppression by the government, protect against unfounded charges or biased judges, and ensure justice reflects community standards rather than elite or authoritarian control. In short, America values trial by jury so highly because it embodies core principles of self-government, popular sovereignty, and protection from tyranny—lessons hard-won from colonial experience and deliberately enshrined in the nation's founding documents to keep power accountable to "We the People." It's one of the features that distinguishes the U.S. legal system from many others around the world. But there’s the catch—what if there are no “community standards”? What if there exists no coherent “We the People”? How does trial by jury work to balance the interests of enforcement of the political and legal will of the American body politic, on the one hand, and checking authoritarian governmental tyranny, on the other hand, when the society has been balkanized into a scattered collection of distinct cultural tribes—exactly as has been occurring in America for decades through the forces of both illegal and legal migration from disparate third-world nations? The answer: It doesn’t. The mass immigration of third-world people’s is utterly crushing America’s ability to apply trial by jury in any culturally cohesive and legally-sound manner. Indeed, history has shown us that nation’s lacking a cohesive “We the People” have either never established a right to trial by jury or were compelled to abandon it. Indeed, multi-cultural nations that originally inherited trial by jury as British colonies—including both India and Singapore—were compelled to abandon the practice shortly after achieving independence specifically because of the bias and prejudice inherent to any multi-cultural society. A multi-cultural society will similarly have to abandon trial by jury for the same reasons—and then what? Does any American really trust they will be treated impartially by today’s generation of judges? And that’s all the more reason to fight desperately for mass remigration of third-world peoples out of our nation, and restore America to the high-IQ, high-trust, mostly white, mostly Christian foundations of its Founding.

DR. MOLLIE JAMES: . . . we have a supplement called ReVasca , a seaweed-based supplement that helps regulate blood pressure and just repair basically circulation to all the organs of the body.

So one of the things that's been missing from the discussion is the glycocalyx.  That's the lining of our arteries that look like little eyelashes or little sea grasses.  COVID actually mowed that down.  So that when you look at how that protects the inside lining of the arteries without that this is why people have heart attacks, strokes, blood clots.  So we can actually measure that by putting a little microscopic camera under the tongue.  We can get a health score of the mitochondria.  It's very cool. You can look at your own capillaries and single red blood cells flowing through your capillaries.  And we have a supplement called ReVasca from the same company.  We can actually rebuild that using a seaweed-based supplement.  And it helps regulate blood pressure and just repair basically circulation to all the organs of the body.  So putting all of this together, I do think there's hope for people who are pretty injured.

KATIE HOPKINS: Either [British people] will flee eastward to Eastern Europe with our much more stronger Christian neighbors--Poland, Hungry, those countries, or they will seek asylum, flee, try to come to America or they will stand their ground. But certainly the time of the Crusades will need to come again if we are to return.

I believe there will come a time, not too far from now, when the British people, true British people, will have to make very difficult choices.  Either they will flee eastward to Eastern Europe with our much more stronger Christian neighbors--Poland, Hungry, those countries, or they will seek asylum, flee, try to come to America or they will stand their ground.  But certainly the time of the Crusades will need to come again if we are to return.

What do you mean by that?

We are overrun every way, in every sense, demographically, all births, Muslim births outnumber births to every and all other religion.  This is no commentary on anyone's religion; this is just pure fact.  Our mayors who control funding in our capital cities are Muslim. Mosques are not churches.  A mosque is being built at the outermost tippy tippy most end of Scotland and at the further most reaches at the end of the other side of our tiny country.  This is about a takeover.

I want to take a minute to really address what I'm hoping to hear, but also point out that for years this legislature has really sent a clear message to the oil and gas producers and refineries and that message was and has been, "You don't have a future here," and the markets responded. Capital left.  Reinvestments slowed, and now we are seeing refineries have closed down.  In 1982, there were 43 refineries in California.  Today we have 7.  Meanwhile, demand is up and California are paying about 50% more at the pump than the national average.  We produce roughly 20% of the crude oil that we consume and more than 65% of that comes from foreign sources.  We are one more refinery closure, one more pipeline failure, and we'll be staring at catastrophic instability.

KASHAMI: These acts were not carried out by trained or confessed terrorists; they were carried out by everyday Muslims and almajiri. Many of them are still alive today in government and the military; some of them are your friends here online.

One gory feature of this genocide against Christians was the dumping of dead Christians into wells to hide evidence, reduce the reported number of casualties, and contaminate the water supply. --Kashami

I was shocked to my core when I discovered this. There are "Death Wells" in northern Nigeria filled with the bodies of Christians. The genocide and persecution of Christians, especially in the north and Middle Belt of Nigeria, did not begin today, and it did not begin with Boko Haram, ISWAP, or Fulani jihadists. It began since the 1980s with ordinary, everyday Muslims who, at any opportunity, would start religious riots and kill Christians, people they knew and spoke to every day. Because Muslims were far more numerous than Christians in the north. While Christians believed in peaceful coexistence, many Muslims viewed Christians and Christianity as a threat. They saw Christians as infidels, Kafiri, Arne, common unclean things that needed to be removed. One gory feature of this genocide against Christians was the dumping of dead Christians into wells to hide evidence, reduce the reported number of casualties, and contaminate the water supply. This practice was common in places like Kano, Kaduna, and Plateau. After the killing was eventually stopped in many cases by the military, Christians were in some cases left with no choice but to turn those wells into the final resting place for their fellow Christians. After being lynched and butchered, they were also denied a proper burial. There are countless sealed-up "death wells" in the north filled with the bones of murdered Christians: children, women, and men who died at the hands of Muslims during various crises. Kano tops the list in this practice, but in one incident in Plateau, survivors recovered about 150 dead Christians from wells in one village alone, with some of them missing vital organs or limbs. Journalists and witnesses saw bodies dumped in wells and sewage pits. Survivors say the images and videos are so horrific they can traumatize a person for life. These acts were not carried out by trained or confessed terrorists; they were carried out by everyday Muslims and almajiri. Many of them are still alive today in government and the military; some of them are your friends here online. These stories can be confirmed online and are important for every Nigerian and every Christian to know. Because we cannot build any peace on a foundation of lies.

SAMA HOOLE: Farmer: "Phytoestrogens. Plants produce them. Look it up. They're estrogen-mimicking compounds. Often more potent than animal estrogens."

Activist: "Hormones in beef cause cancer." Farmer: "Which hormones? In British beef?" Activist: "Estrogen." Farmer: "Beef contains 1.5 nanograms per 100g. Cabbage contains 800 nanograms per 100g." Activist: "That doesn't sound right." Farmer: "Phytoestrogens. Plants produce them. Look it up." Activist: "Those are different..." Farmer: "They're estrogen-mimicking compounds. Often more potent than animal estrogens." Activist: "I've never heard this." Farmer: "Because it contradicts the narrative. Doesn't make it untrue." Activist: "But added hormones..." 

Farmer: "Are banned here. Have been for 35 years. And would still be less than the phytoestrogens in your soy latte." 

SAMA HOOLE & YOU: so the linoleic acid integrates into the mitochondrial inner membrane, increases electron leak, reduces ATP synthesis efficiency, creates 4-hydroxynonenal which damages proteins and DNA . . . and the mitochondria have their own DNA inherited from bacteria which is specifically vulnerable to glyphosate..."

3am. Can't sleep. Scrolling. You: "Why do I have 4 different health problems in my 30s?" Internet: "Try magnesium." You: "What actually causes this?" Someone on X: "Mitochondrial dysfunction from seed oils." You: "That sounds made up." 2 hours later You: "...so the linoleic acid integrates into the mitochondrial inner membrane, increases electron leak, reduces ATP synthesis efficiency, creates 4-hydroxynonenal which damages proteins and DNA..." You: "...and the mitochondria have their own DNA inherited from bacteria which is specifically vulnerable to glyphosate..." You: "...and ketosis activates PGC-1α which is literally the master switch for making new mitochondria..." You: "...and all the building materials for healthy mitochondria are in beef..." 5am. Sun rising. You: "I've been eating soybean oil every day for 30 years." You: stares at the ceiling.

You: orders beef.

SAMA HOOLE: The cow took potentially problematic fats and fixed them for you. At no charge. Without being asked. Just doing its biology.

Here's something that should fundamentally change how you think about beef. Cows eat grain. Grain contains polyunsaturated fats - the same unstable, oxidation-prone fats that cause problems in seed oils. Linoleic acid. Alpha-linolenic acid. The stuff that integrates into your cell membranes and creates inflammatory signalling. But between the cow eating the grain and you eating the cow, something remarkable happens. Inside the rumen - the cow's first stomach, roughly the size of a dustbin - live billions of bacteria whose job includes biohydrogenation. They take those unstable polyunsaturated fatty acids and systematically convert them into stable saturated fats and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). The biochemistry is elegant: the rumen bacteria strip hydrogen atoms and rearrange molecular bonds. Linoleic acid becomes stearic acid. Alpha-linolenic acid becomes palmitic acid. Unstable molecules become stable ones. Inflammatory precursors become neutral or beneficial fats. By the time that fat reaches the beef you buy, roughly 70-80% of the original polyunsaturated fat from the grain has been converted into stable saturated fat. The cow has done the work of an industrial refinery, except silently, continuously, and without chemical solvents. This is why beef fat is so resistant to oxidation. You can leave tallow on a shelf at room temperature for months without significant rancidity. The saturated molecular structure means it doesn't react with oxygen. It's chemically inert, stable, perfect for cooking, and for lining up your cell membranes. Compare this to the polyunsaturated fats in chicken and pork, which haven't been through any biohydrogenation, and which either oxidise during cooking or eventually in your cell membranes. The cow took potentially problematic fats and fixed them for you. At no charge. Without being asked. Just doing its biology. And then we were told the output of this process - saturated fat from beef - was the dangerous one.
