Miller Organic Farm Raid, Raw Milk and USDA Conflict

Armed federal agents raided Miller Organic Farm, an Amish-run operation in Pennsylvania, demanding it cease operations and pay $300,000 in fines. The conflict centers on the farm's sale of raw milk and unpasteurized dairy to a private food club, which violates USDA regulations. The hosts argue the USDA has a "hard on" for raw milk and uses safety concerns like listeria to shut down independent holistic farmers.
