Rollins highlights \u2064that despite this good \u2063news, egg prices typically rise during the Easter season, and she encourages consumers to manage their expectations. The article\u2062 criticizes Democrats and the \u2062establishment media for attempting to blame rising egg prices\u2064 on President Trump, especially when previous \u2064price surges occured under President Biden without\u200c similar\u200d backlash. The narrative reassesses the \u2062effectiveness\u200d of Rollins\u2019 plans and suggests that the sharp decline\u2064 in egg prices undermines the\u2062 Democrats\u2019 criticisms.\u200d it illustrates a sharp disconnect between public \u2062perception\u2063 and political rhetoric regarding economic\u2062 issues\u2063 like \u2064egg prices.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Democrats and their allies in the establishment media exposed their dishonesty and impotence by seizing upon this particular issue.<\/p>\n<p>Now that the issue &mdash; predictably &mdash; has trended in a direction unfavorable to their pathetic narrative, expect deafening silence from them.<\/p>\n<p>In a clip posted Tuesday to the social media platform X, Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins touted declining egg prices.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;A good piece of news we just got in the last day or two is that the average cost of a dozen eggs has now gone down $1.85 since we announced our plan about a week-and-a-half ago,&rdquo; Rollins said.<\/p>\n<p>In a Feb. 26 op-ed for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/opinion\/agriculture-secretary-brooke-rollins-my-plan-to-lower-egg-prices-6be0f881\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Wall Street Journal<\/a>, Rollins announced a five-step plan to combat <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/grammy-awards-roundup-woke-weird-and-no-mention-of-joe-biden-by-name\/\" title=\"Grammy Awards Roundup: Woke, Weird and No Mention of Joe Biden By Name\">soaring egg prices<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <script type=\"text\/javascript\"> \t\t\tif ( getCookie( \"ff_subbed\" ) ) { \t\t\t\tdocument.getElementById(\"stnvideo\").remove() \t\t\t} \t\t<\/script> <\/p>\n<p>Still, in light of the coming holiday, the secretary tried to temper expectations.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;So, listen, we&rsquo;re going into Easter season [and] this is always the highest price for eggs,&rdquo; she added.<\/p>\n<p>Readers may view the clip <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/RapidResponse47\/status\/1899446651611218174\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>According to the data provider <a href=\"https:\/\/tradingeconomics.com\/commodity\/eggs-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trading Economics<\/a>, Rollins did not exaggerate. Egg prices have indeed plummeted sharply since the beginning of the month.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, those prices had surged since October and continued surging after President Donald Trump took office.<\/p>\n<p>By early January, egg prices in California had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/egg-prices-hit-shocking-highs-will-9-dozen-new-standard\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">increased<\/a> at a rate of 70 percent in one month.<\/p>\n<p>The bird flu, which resulted in the deaths of more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/egg-rationing-begins-as-american-supply-collapses\/\" title=\"Egg Rationing Begins as American Supply Collapses\">40 million egg-laying chickens<\/a> in the past year, wreaked such havoc on egg prices that by February many retailers had resorted to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/egg-rationing-begins-supply-craters-nationwide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rationing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/trumps-agriculture-secretary-encourages-americans-raise-chickens-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rollins<\/a> even suggested that Americans should consider raising their own chickens at home.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, news of suddenly plummeting egg prices came at a most opportune time &mdash; except for Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>Since his return to the White House, Trump has taken one popular initiative after another. He has sealed the southern border, made war on Marxist DEI policies, and unleashed X owner Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency, to root out waste and fraud in federal agencies. According to polls, voters <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/flash-poll-shows-trumps-joint-address-congress-overwhelming-victory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">consistently approve<\/a> of Trump&rsquo;s policies.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Democrats have found no coherent response apart from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/lifelong-democrat-flips-parties-hitting-breaking-point-trumps-address-congress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">petulance<\/a>. So they focused on soaring egg prices and tried to blame them on the new president.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, prior to their embarrassing antics during Trump&rsquo;s joint address to Congress last week, they reportedly considered a number of strategies for how to behave during that address, including the possibility of waving empty egg cartons at the president, per <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2025\/03\/04\/trump-congress-address-democrats-disrupt-plan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Axios<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Never mind that those same Democrats made nary a peep when egg prices skyrocketed under former President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>In sum, whether or not egg prices have declined in response to Rollins&rsquo; five-step plan, the mere fact of their decline has called attention to the emptiness of Democrats&rsquo; rhetoric.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position: relative;\">\n<div class=\"ff-fancy-header-container\"> \t\t\t \t<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-submit-correction inner-content\">\n<div class=\"correction-form\">\n<form style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"sc-name-field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* Name<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc--field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* <\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<label>* Message<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t<textarea name=\"message\" required><\/textarea> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"required-message\" style=\"display: none; padding-bottom: 15px;\">* All fields are required.<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault(); firefly_sc();\"> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"firefly-sc-confirm\" style=\"display: none;\">Success!<\/div>\n<\/p><\/form>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> \t\t<script> \t\t\tfunction firefly_sc() { \t\t\t\tif( typeof window.captchaPublicKey==typeof undefined ){ \t\t\t\t\tconsole.error('window.captchaPublicKey is not defined'); \t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\tgrecaptcha.execute( window.captchaPublicKey, { action: 'submit_correction' } ).then( function( token ) { \t\t\t\t\tvar opts={ \t\t\t\t\t\taction:    'firefly_sc_submit', \t\t\t\t\t\tname:      document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"name\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\t:     document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tmessage:   document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"message\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tpost_id:   firefly_post_id, \t\t\t\t\t\tcap_token: token \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\tvar inputs=[ 'name', '', 'message' ];  \t\t\t\t\tfor( var i=0; i <inputs.length; i++ ) if( !
