“A Cowboy’s Christmas Prayer” by S. Omar Barker I ain’t much good at prayin’, and You may not know me, Lord I ain’t much seen in churches where they preach Thy Holy Word. But You may have observed me out here on the lonely plains, A-lookin’ after cattle, feelin’ thankful when it rains, Admirin’ Thy great handiwork, the miracle of grass, Aware of Thy kind spirit in the way it comes to pass That hired men on horseback and the livestock that we tend Can look up at the stars at night and know we’ve got a Friend. So here’s ol’ Christmas comin’ on, remindin’ us again Of Him whose coming brought good will into the hearts of men. A cowboy ain’t no preacher, Lord, but if You’ll hear my prayer, I’ll ask as good as we have got for all men everywhere. Don’t let no hearts be bitter, Lord. Don’t let no child be cold. Make easy beds for them that’s sick and them that’s weak and old. Let kindness bless the trail we ride, no matter what we’re after, And sorter keep us on Your side, in tears as well as laughter. I’ve seen ol’ cows a-starvin’, and it ain’t no happy sight: Please don’t leave no one hungry, Lord, on Thy good Christmas night No man, no child, no woman, and no critter on four feet. I’ll do my doggone best to help you find ’em chuck to eat. I’m just a sinful cowpoke, Lord—ain’t got no business prayin’ But still I hope you’ll ketch a word or two of what I’m sayin’: We speak of Merry Christmas, Lord—I reckon You’ll agree There ain’t no Merry Christmas for nobody that ain’t free! So one thing more I’ll ask You, Lord: just help us what You can To save some seeds of freedom for the future sons of man! - Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from— Texas Slim @modernTman RS “Ruffshot” June “RanchMama” Shanen @RanchMamaShanen Breeauna “Trigger” Sagdal @Breeauna9 Jason Wrich @JasonWrich Cole Bolton @kandccattle And everyone else at The Beef Initiative, Beef Maps, and I Am Texas Slim Foundation.

🚨FARM BUREAU + NCBA NO‑SHOWED THE WHITE HOUSE Ranchers got 90 min alone with Sec. Kennedy, Rollins, & Burgum. They explained the 30‑month rule: a packer-backed trap that blocks U.S. beef if cattle are “too old” — even if grass‑finished. “That’s not right.” @POTUS @SecKennedy

🚨PRICE-FIXING IS A BUSINESS MODEL JBS made $4.3B in profit, $72M in fines. Tyson: $4B profit, $135M fine. Smithfield: $1.4B profit, $200M fine. These fines aren’t a punishment—they’re a business strategy! 🇺🇸 BREAK UP THE PACKERS!
