RFK Jr backs beef, declaring 'war on protein is over' as he thanks America's cattle ranchers
Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declared that the "war on protein is over" during his address to thousands of cattle ranchers in Nashville this week.
Speaking in a "fireside chat" with National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) president Buck Wehrbein, Kennedy said that "beef is back on the menu."
The two discussed "the importance of meat protein," according to an HHS news release.
It was the ranchers who Kennedy commended for being "essential partners in advancing the new Dietary Guidelines for Americans and restoring a food pyramid grounded in real nutrition."
The trade show attracted over 9,400 attendees, which included industry professionals as well as ranchers.
The secretary thanked America's cattle ranchers "for producing real, nutrient-dense food, stewarding our land and sustaining rural communities," per the release.
Wehrbein said the cattlemen and women in the room appreciated Kennedy for "making certain that beef remains at the center of the plate for the nation's consumers."
The speech came one day after Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee welcomed Kennedy to the Volunteer State.

The two discussed recent state actions to advance the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda, including banning Red 40 from school meals and restricting the purchase of candy and sugary drinks with Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits.
"Under President [Donald] Trump and Secretary Kennedy's leadership, Tennessee is leading the way to create innovative, responsible solutions that strengthen families and improve health outcomes," said Lee, according to the HHS statement.

Fox News Digital reached out to the NCBA. The HHS declined to provide additional comment.
The 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend consuming "a variety of protein foods from animal sources, including eggs, poultry, seafood and red meat."
The guidelines also recommend getting protein from certain plant-based foods, "including beans, peas, lentils, legumes, nuts, seeds and soy."
The report advises avoiding too much saturated fat consumption, limiting it to 10% of total daily calories — and a doctor previously told Fox News Digital that balancing protein sources is essential.
Working in poultry, fish and plant proteins "helps lower saturated fat intake, supports healthy cholesterol levels and still allows flexibility and enjoyment in everyday eating," said Dr. Craig Basman, a cardiologist at Hackensack Meridian Health in New Jersey.
The single crushing problem American cattle ranchers wish Trump would fix instead
President Donald Trump's beef import plan aims to cut prices, but cattle ranchers say it misses what’s crushing them most — the power of meat packers.
"Meat packers have created a system where they win no matter what—at the cost of everyone else," said Will Harris, a fourth-generation cattleman and owner of White Oak Pastures in Bluffton, Georgia.
Harris, who plans to hand off the operation to his children, said his farm handles every step of production, from raising cattle to processing and selling beef, giving him a clear view of how prices are set.
At the center of that pricing power sit the "Big Four" — Tyson, JBS, Cargill and National Beef — anchoring the U.S. beef supply chain from pasture to plate.
Together, the packing titans process about 85% of the grain-fattened cattle that become steaks, roasts and other supermarket cuts.
"The U.S. beef market is so highly concentrated that a small number of dominant packers control processing, distribution and pricing. This allows them to pay ranchers less for cattle while charging consumers more at the store. When cheap imported beef enters the system, it allows packers to increase their margins," Harris told Fox News Digital.
It’s a concern echoed deep into cattle country.
Texas cattle rancher Cole Bolton said he sees the same problem in the Lone Star State.
IN TEXAS CATTLE COUNTRY, ONE RANCHER WELCOMES TRUMP’S FOCUS ON DECADES OF THIN MARGINS
"What the real issue is, is the price differential between the big four packers and what they're paying us for the product," said Bolton, the owner of K&C Cattle Company.
Those margins, Bolton said, have been squeezed for decades. "Ranchers have dealt with such thin margins of profitability for the last 20 years."
While ranchers like Bolton and Harris say Trump’s temporary expansion of U.S. beef imports from Argentina may help ease prices in the short term, both warn it is no substitute for rebuilding domestic production.
"Imports should be a bridge, not a long-term replacement," Harris said. "We must rebuild the American cattle herd, protect American farmers and ensure transparency, so consumers understand where their beef comes from. Long-term affordability depends on a healthy, resilient domestic cattle industry—not permanent dependence on foreign beef."
Years of drought, high feed costs and an aging ranching population have thinned herds, leaving the U.S. cattle supply at its lowest level in more than 70 years.
"I think it's going to take a while to fix this crisis that we're in with the cattle shortage. My message to consumers is simple: Folks, be patient. We've got to build back our herds," Bolton told Fox News Digital.
He noted that the cattle industry has weathered one setback after another, from market turmoil to extreme weather conditions, over the past five years.
Trump blasts Olympian over comments about representing US
President Donald Trump reacted on Sunday after Team USA Olympic skier Hunter Hess sparked outrage over his comments about representing the country at the Milan Cortina Games.
Trump made a scathing post on social media, calling Hess a "real loser."

"U.S. Olympic Skier, Hunter Hess, a real Loser, says he doesn’t represent his Country in the current Winter Olympics," he wrote.
"If that’s the case, he shouldn’t have tried out for the Team, and it’s too bad he’s on it. Very hard to root for someone like this. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
"Miracle on Ice" star Mike Eruzione also took issue with Hess’ remarks. He wrote on X that Hess shouldn’t have put on the uniform if he felt the way he felt. The former men’s ice hockey Olympian later deleted his post.
Hess’ comments came as the Trump administration faced backlash over the use of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in illegal immigrant operations. An incident with ICE agents in January left one person dead in Minnesota. The woman was identified as Renee Good. Border Patrol agents also had a deadly encounter with Alex Pretti.
US COULD BE 'GLOBAL VILLAIN' OF WINTER OLYMPICS, CNN HOST AND SPORTS WRITER SUGGEST
Those incidents were apparently used as the catalyst for the comments from Hess, and his teammate Chris Lillis. Hess said he had "mixed emotions" about representing the U.S.
"It brings up mixed emotions to represent the U.S. right now, I think. It’s a little hard. There’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of, and I think a lot of people aren’t," Hess said.
"I think, for me, it’s more I’m representing my friends and family back home, the people that represented it before me, all the things that I believe are good about the U.S. If it aligns with my moral values, I feel like I’m representing it. Just because I’m wearing the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that’s going on in the U.S.
"I just kind of want to do it for my friends and my family and the people that support me getting here."
Hess is competing in the men’s freeski halfpipe.

Viral ‘He Gets Us’ Jesus ads sidestep politics in Super Bowl 2026 after backlash
The Super Bowl Jesus ads that went viral over the past four years are returning for Sunday’s big game with a message that steers clear of hot-button cultural fights.
Instead, the 2026 ad spot for the "He Gets Us" campaign, titled "More," focuses on the inward struggle to chase "more" amid pressure from social media and society. It invites viewers to consider what Jesus says about true fulfillment and purpose.
In the 60-second ad, which will air during the second half of the game, "More" shows a montage of scenes of people seeking affirmation through material things, thrills and luxurious lifestyles as a voice-over repeats, "You got to learn how to get more pleasure out of this."
The spot ends by suddenly going quiet, showing a woman walking in nature and enjoying the serenity. Words then appear on the screen: "There’s more to life than more. What if Jesus shows us how to find it?"
WATCH SUPER BOWL LX ADS: 10 MUST‑SEE COMMERCIALS
Come Near, the producer behind the campaign, told Fox News Digital the ads are meant to invite viewers to seek the "authentic Jesus" and wrestle with what He has to say "about our doubts and tough questions."
"We know people today are seeking peace, hope, joy, and love — the very things we believe Jesus has been throughout history and can be the single greatest source of today," said Dr. Tyler Johnson, Come Near's chief impact officer.
Johnson said the spot that will play during Sunday's game is aimed at the daily pressure to get "more," such as attention, money, success and status, and urges viewers to rethink what they are actually looking for in life. He said Romans 12:1-2 and Matthew 6:24 inspired the theme.
"Jesus doesn’t say wanting comfort, beauty, or security is wrong. But he questions what happens when the pursuit of more becomes the thing that defines us," Johnson said.
PATRIOTS OWNER ROBERT KRAFT CONTINUES ANTISEMITISM FIGHT WITH NEW $15M SUPER BOWL AD CAMPAIGN
In past years, "He Gets Us" has gone viral with polarizing ads that drew backlash from both the left and right.
During the 2023 and 2024 Super Bowl games, conservatives objected to ads they viewed as carrying "woke" messages.
One 2024 spot depicted a police officer washing a young Black man’s feet and a protester washing the feet of a woman outside an abortion clinic. It ended with the slogan: "Jesus didn’t teach hate. He washed feet."
The campaign has also faced criticism from the left over the money spent on the ads and over reported ties to the family behind craft retailer Hobby Lobby.
BUDWEISER UNVEILS PATRIOTIC NEW SUPER BOWL AD HONORING 'DEEP-ROOTED AMERICAN HERITAGE'
"What we’ve heard from people is that everyone today is inundated with noise," Johnson said of the 2026 message shift. "He Gets Us has certainly been recognized for commenting on culture and Come Near is a group of people who are deeply moved to raise the public conversation about Jesus."
This year they wanted to address the personal concerns they've heard from the spiritually curious.
"[W]e were inspired to evolve the campaign by what we heard in listening research and the feedback we received when sharing the ads with people who are spiritually curious and have skepticism: turn the reflection inward," he said. "We want to create a space where anyone can come as they are, ask hard questions, and explore Jesus without fear of judgment. Our hope is that our neighbors feel seen, heard, known, and loved by what they see from ‘He Gets Us,’ just as Jesus makes us feel seen, heard, known, and loved."

Simon Armour, Come Near's chief creative officer, said the Super Bowl spot is meant to leave viewers with one simple takeaway: "Jesus offers all of us, whoever we are and wherever we are in life, an invitation: there is more to life than chasing more."
He said the ad intentionally begins with "more" feeling energizing, then shows the pressure and futility of the chase, but Jesus offers a "different way."
"More" is part of the campaign’s "Loaded Words" series launched in December. Come Near says its ads will also be broadcast during the Winter Olympics and the FIFA World Cup.
"Each ad in the He Gets Us ‘Loaded Words’ series explores how everyday words loaded with expectations contribute to the ever-present noise in our lives, and how expectations might mean something different if reframed by the person and teachings of Jesus," the group said.
Oddsmaker reveals most popular betting trends for Super Bowl, how gamblers could cash out
The Super Bowl marks the biggest gambling day of the year, and as it becomes more prevalent, there are plenty of more options.
DraftKings, of course, has taken notice of what fans may like, giving oddsmaker Johnny Avello quite the fun job for Super Bowl LX and the entire season leading up to it.
Bets simply used to be spreads, moneylines, or over/unders, but Avello saw a trend and ran with it.

The props that really do write the most money over the last two, three years? That would be touchdown scorers," Avello told Fox News Digital on radio row.
"We started off three, four years ago with first touchdown scorer, and that was the bet: first touchdown scorer in every game. And now we're up to anytime scorer in every game, and then two touchdown scorers, three touchdown scorers, last touchdown scorer. That is the prop that has the most growth over the last two or three years."
Avello also said he enjoyed taking a deep dive into next-gen stats, including the fastest ball carrier, farthest thrown ball, and other similar wagers that cannot be determined simply from the box score.
The Super Bowl is also the king of the prop bet, including national anthem length, Gatorade color, and other miscellaneous wagers. But Avello decided to give in to NFL history for one available bet.
"We put up a prop: Will the Seahawks have a one-yard passing attempt, and will they complete it?" Avello said, noting that it's a play on Super Bowl XLIX, which, like this year, featured the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots. That game, of course, is best known for Russell Wilson's interception by Malcolm Butler on the 1-yard line with Marshawn Lynch in the backfield.
Avello said most of the spread bets are on the favored Seahawks to cover the 4.5-point spread, but lots of moneyline bets are on New England. And that would not be great for DraftKings.
"People who want to bet the Patriots say, "I don't need the 4.5 points. Patriots are gonna win straight up." That's the main reason for the Patriots taking the underdog on the moneyline, Avello said. "So we're kind of balanced out on the game."
"We do have a little bit of hazard on the Patriots to win the whole thing. We opened them, like, 70-1 to win the Super Bowl, but we also opened the Seahawks high, too. But they haven't taken anywhere near the money that the Patriots did. So we're in a little bit of jeopardy there."

Congressional commission warns China's Pacific infrastructure projects could pose a military threat
FIRST ON FOX: Chinese-funded infrastructure projects across the Pacific Islands may appear civilian on the surface but could provide future military access for Beijing, senior members of a bipartisan congressional advisory commission warned in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital.
Senior members of the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission said runways, ports and other facilities financed by the People’s Republic of China are often "dual use" and part of a broader strategic pattern that blends economic investment with long-term security objectives.
"When you see a broader trend of militarization of the region… you see a lot of activities that suggest there are at least some security and military-related interests involved," commission chair Randall Schriver said. "Even if it’s declared for civilian use… it is by its very character dual-use and could be used for military purposes."
Schriver warned that China’s investments in the Pacific should not be viewed in isolation. "We know that China is very ambitious. We know that even civilian infrastructure projects often have strings attached," he said. "In many instances, those involve access for the Chinese military."
Commission Vice Chair Michael Kuiken said Beijing frequently pairs infrastructure financing with financial leverage. "There’s a cycle of debt diplomacy here," Kuiken said. "China loads these islands up with debt and then uses their position of weakness to gain access… to build runways, to do things with respect to ports."
"It’s a cycle that we see over and over again," he added, calling it "a flywheel of debt diplomacy. There’s a vicious rinse-and-repeat cycle here. And whether it’s Taiwan, Palau, Micronesia or the Solomon Islands, it is a playbook that the Chinese go back to every time."
CHINA’S GLOBAL AGGRESSION CHECK: TAIWAN TENSIONS, MILITARY POSTURING, AND US RESPONSE IN 2025
Schriver acknowledged Washington was slow to recognize the security implications of China’s expansion in the region.
"In a word, yes," he said when asked whether the U.S. reacted too slowly.
He noted the timing coincided with major U.S. military investments in Guam, even as Chinese projects advanced nearby. "While this was happening, the Chinese were making inroads in the Pacific Islands… with great proximity to Guam," he said, describing the island as central to U.S. logistics and combat operations.
Asked what would signal a shift from civilian infrastructure to operational military use, Schriver said some warning indicators are already visible.
"The practice of undersea cable cutting… has been very provocative," he said, describing it as activity that could be tied to military contingencies.
He also warned that visible deployments of Chinese military aircraft to Pacific facilities would mark a major escalation, citing a pattern previously seen in the South China Sea.
US TURNS TO FINLAND TO CLOSE ARCTIC ‘ICEBREAKER GAP’ AS RUSSIA, CHINA EXPAND POLAR PRESENCE
"We’ve seen a particular pattern that wouldn’t surprise us at all to see in other parts of Oceania," Schriver said.
Kuiken urged lawmakers to increase scrutiny and transparency. "The thing members can do most easily is just ask the intelligence community for imagery and for intelligence reports… raise the alarm, shine a light on it and expose the activities," he said.
Kuiken also revealed a future hearing focused on undersea infrastructure and security risks in the region.
"Data is the lifeblood of the global economy these days," he said. "Those cables are a vital source of information… and those are really quite aggressive actions and need to be exposed."
The commission has proposed a broader U.S. response, including increased Coast Guard cooperation and expanded support for Pacific Island nations to strengthen resilience against security threats and economic pressure.
Schriver referenced a "Pacific Island Security Initiative" recommendation aimed at combining economic, law enforcement and defense engagement.
Kuiken described the approach as "a layered cake." "We want there to be a civilian aspect… a law enforcement piece… and a military piece," he said. "You sort of need to do all of them in order to really be effective and really to combat the influence of the Chinese in this space."
NFL stars highlight their on-field wingmen teammates, how they make each other successful
No football team can find success if players don't have their wingmen on, and even off, the field.
Just like how football fans can't have football without wings during the Super Bowl, and you can't have wings without Bounty, football teams can't have wins without chemistry, and you can't have chemistry without your wingman.
Numerous duos of teammates joined Bounty's wingman campaign during Super Bowl week once again to hype up their on-field wingmen and discuss what makes each so conducive to the other's success.

"We were in the same class, so we got drafted to Detroit in the same year. We've been an important part of what Detroit is building and the culture. From there on, we've gotten closer on the field. He does his thing, I do mine, and it makes it fun," Detroit Lions offensive lineman Penei Sewell said of Amon-Ra St. Brown.
"Without him, Jared [Goff] can't throw the ball. Without Jared throwing the ball, I can't catch it. So he's my wingman," the receiver added of Sewell.
Los Angeles Chargers receiver Ladd McConkey found a new wingman this season in Keenan Allen, as the longtime veteran returned to L.A. after a brief stint in Chicago.
"It meant so much, him coming back. Somebody's gonna win, and being able to gain knowledge off him, the leadership he brought into the receiver room was special," he said.
Reed Blankenship and Cooper DeJean, members of the Philadelphia Eagles secondary, have a similar relationship.
"It's just natural," said DeJean. "He kinda took me under his wing when I got into the NFL, taught me all the good and bad things.
"I was gonna let him make his mistakes, but he didn't make a lot of them. He's grown a lot, and it's been fun playing with him," Blankenship added.
New York Giants rookies Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo instantly became fan favorites, and it's easy to see why.
"It starts with our competitive nature, the way we go about our business every single day and compete, our habits and discipline on the field. At the same time, we just go out there with a ton of passion," Dart said.
Skattebo added, "We leave no meat on the bone when we play."

49ers stars praise San Francisco as Bay Area hosts Super Bowl: 'So much to offer'
The Super Bowl is returning to the Bay Area for the first time in a decade on Sunday, and San Francisco 49ers stars think it's a wise choice.
Levi's Stadium hosted Super Bowl L, Peyton Manning's final game, while Stanford Stadium was the venue for Super Bowl XIX, when the nearby 49ers defeated the Miami Dolphins, 38-16.
"It's a historic city with so much character. The food, the hills, the homes, the water, the bridge, the whole thing. It's just such a great city, too, and it's really cool to see it come to life even more than it already is," Christian McCaffrey told Fox News Digital on radio row ahead of the big game.

"Man, I think San Francisco has so much to offer," quarterback Brock Purdy added. "Just, obviously, with the restaurants, the experiences, just how pretty it is out here with the Golden Gate Bridge and the ocean. It's a great city, great people. So to have the Super Bowl out here is really cool."
Levy Restaurants has also made its way to the Bay Area for the big game. Fred Warner got a chance to sneak a peek at their Super Bowl menu while he was nursing his injury and watching his Niners play from Levi's Stadium suites.
49ERS STAR BROCK PURDY PLAYS LOCAL HERO AT ALL-GIRLS FLAG FOOTBALL GAME IN SAN FRANCISCO
"I had the pleasure of trying out some of their items that they're gonna have on Super Bowl Sunday up in my suite during this past season. They had the steak frites, which were delicious, man, that's right up my alley, some delicious steak and french fry combination there. Crab nachos, which were fantastic. Some short ribs, so they got some really good options, man. I think it's gonna be a hit."
Warner also echoed his teammates' sentiments about the California city.
"I think it's just because it's a melting pot, man. Just all the different cultures mixing, all the diversity and mixing together," Warner said. "You can get a little bit of everything that you're looking for out here, and of course, playing in the greatest stadium in the entire NFL, Levi's Stadium, you can't beat it, and so I think it's gonna be a great Super Bowl Sunday and a great week as well with all the different activities that they got planned for everybody."
The actual game is roughly an hour outside of San Francisco itself, but the Super Bowl experience and Radio Row were all in the heart of the city at the Moscone Center.

Tom Brady plays coy on Super Bowl pick after coming under fire for lack of Patriots' support
Tom Brady came under fire from current and former New England Patriots players for saying he doesn’t have "a dog in the fight," and he has continued to send mixed signals about the big game.
Brady, 48, has ties to both teams. His ties to the Patriots are obvious, as he spent the majority of his career with them. His ties to the Seattle Seahawks, are less obvious.
The Las Vegas Raiders, of whom Brady is a minority owner, are reportedly set to hire Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak as their new head coach.

When asked by Fox News Digital who he thinks will win, he declined to give an answer.
"You tell me," Brady said with a smile. "Does anybody really know, or is it all just a guess?"
The 15-time Pro Bowler seemed to signal his support for the Patriots in a social media post on Friday.
Brady posted a picture of himself and Robert Kraft to his Instagram story on Friday, captioning the post, "You know I got your back RKK."
"Get that 7th ring so we can match," Brady posted with seven ring emojis. He also tagged the Patriots in the photo, seemingly making it clear that he is supporting his former team.
While Brady was in California for the Super Bowl, he also opened his store, CardVault by Tom Brady, in San Francisco. The 15-time Pro Bowler said the turnout has been amazing.
"It was amazing. We had a great turnout. We opened in Sacramento yesterday, and we opened in San Francisco today, so it’s pretty cool."
Brady heard criticism from current and former Patriots players during the week.
"Personally it makes me sick," New England linebacker Robert Spillane said Thursday during a Super Bowl week media availability, via MassLive.com. "But, at the end of the day, [he's a Patriot]; he has a dog in the fight. So for him to say that, it is what it is. At the end of the day, he's an owner of the Las Vegas Raiders now, so he has to do what's best for him."

Minnesota DHS whistleblower details 'smear campaign' after reporting fraud concerns to state
A Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) whistleblower said she has been raising red flags about fraud in the state since 2019, but has faced only unyielding retaliation in response, calling Gov. Tim Walz's assertion that he was unaware of the problem "absolutely false."
Faye Bernstein, who has worked for Minnesota's DHS for two decades in contract management and compliance, said she was subjected to a "smear campaign" for trying to make leadership aware of illegal contracting practices. She said she was called "racist" and that her work responsibilities were diminished.
MINNESOTA GOV WALZ, AG ELLISON TO TESTIFY IN HOUSE INVESTIGATION INTO ALLEGED $9B WELFARE FRAUD
"There is just a continuous effort to stifle you, to shut you up. And it is impossible to overcome," Bernstein said on "Saturday in America."
Federal prosecutors estimate that up to $9 billion was stolen through a network of fraudulent fronts posing as daycare centers, food programs and health clinics. The majority of those charged, so far, in the ongoing investigation are part of Minnesota's Somali population.
Rather than receiving thanks for speaking out about irregularities within the contracting process, Bernstein wrote in a letter obtained exclusively by "Saturday in America" that the "nearly unbearable retaliation" she faced also included being "trespassed from all DHS-owned or leased property" and investigated "at a great cost to the state."
Bernstein said she consistently raised concerns internally and escalated them "to the Governor's Office and external oversight bodies," but the response was always the same.
"It was that I was, in fact, the bad employee," she said, and claimed she notified leaders in multiple departments so many times that she was becoming embarrassed about sounding like "a broken record."
"It's been sometimes just downright embarrassing to go on and on about this. So to say that leadership was not aware, or the governor was not aware is — I can tell you that is absolutely false."
Bernstein said she identified as a Democrat and had only voted for Democrats, but that the fraud in Minnesota was not being invented by Republicans, pushing back on Walz's description of the allegations as "make-believe."
"I see this every day... and it is not make-believe. And as far as my being a Democrat, right now, we have to have a governor who is willing to tackle this. And it doesn't matter if they are Republican or a Democrat."
