Gentner Drummond continues to face political fallout for placing the legal rights and interests of the Oklahoma people over the pocketbooks of greedy, out-of-state poultry producers!
Last week, the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association announced that our “Beef Burger” nickname for Gentner Drummond was in serious peril after they pulled their endorsement of his gubernatorial bid.
They didn’t do this because he was spotted eating an Impossible Burger in the Paseo, which would have made it justifiable, but because he’s been busy shaking down all the poultry companies that have polluted the Illinois River watershed for decades.
The Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association (OCA) today announced that it has formally rescinded and voided its January 2025 political endorsement of Attorney General Gentner Drummond for Governor of the State of Oklahoma.
OCA is a membership-driven organization committed to representing the collective will and best interests of Oklahoma cattle producers. OCA has significant concerns regarding subsequent actions taken by the Office of the Attorney General, including watershed-based regulatory and litigation strategies that directly impact cattle operations across Oklahoma. The Association believes these actions are contrary to the economic interests, operational viability, and private property rights of Oklahoma’s beef producers.
In accordance with action taken by its governing body, OCA will withdraw all public references to the January 2025 endorsement from its official communications and has notified Attorney General Drummond that the endorsement has been rescinded.
Yep, that’s right. Gentner Drummond – a politically connected, generational cattle rancher with a family name that carries a lot of weight, a lot of power, and a lot of money in the beef and cattle industry – lost the endorsement of the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association… because he enforced a lawsuit judgment that ruled against chicken farmers?
Call me old-fashioned and conservative here, but you’d think these salt-of-the-earth cattlemen would stay loyal and true to their beef-burger brethren and support him as he upheld justice and the law!
