With the decline of mainstream media, independent journalists have picked up the mantle as disseminators of truth and exposers of hidden agendas.
None have done as much work recently revealing the true nature of what were once “Made in America” companies as former producer-turned-conservative powerhouse Robby Starbuck and his team.
Their exposé on Tractor Supply Co. saw the company abandon their radical left-wing DEI policies and focus on what made them who they are today: producing quality equipment for America farmers.
Sadly, another company has recently been exposed as a pusher of anti-American, and in this case, anti-Christian practices, and it is none other than the iconic John Deere manufacturing company.

Few companies have roots as deep into Americana as John Deere. The mere mention of the name brings to mind its iconic green tractor and the accompanying country song by Joe Diffie.
Yet the current executive leadership under CEO John May has pushed an agenda which Starbuck calls “much worse than Tractor Supply Co.”
Here is the breakdown of bullet-point items Starbuck uncovered and revealed in his now-viral post which has been viewed on the social media platform X over four million times:
- Funding a pride event for kids as young as three
- “Genderbread man” training
- They ask employees to list their “preferred pronouns” on all communications
- Bill Gates is listed as their largest shareholder
- John Deere celebrated their accounting and finance team taking United Way’s 21-day “United For Equity” program
- When I did “United For Equity” program, it promoted Ibram Kendi, the woke children’s book “Anti-Racist Baby,” “Awake to Woke to Work,” a podcast on the concept of “Whiteness,” woke activist Robin DiAngelo, bigotry against Christians who supposedly have “Christian Privilege,” and more
- The woke policies have spread across the global John Deere brand with many of their DEI policies also being forced on their Latin America and India branches
- LGBTQ+ & race-based identity groups at corporate
- A total commitment to DEI policies
- 95/100 CEI score from the HRC
For those who are unaware of the CEI score, aka “Corporate Equality Index” put forth by the Human Rights Campaign, here is how they describe it on their website:
“As the national benchmarking tool measuring policies, practices and benefits pertinent to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ+) employees, the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index is a primary driving force for LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion. Data from the CEI tells the story of over two decades of year-over-year growth in the adoption of these critical policies and practices indicative of employers’ commitment to equality.”
For those who have been saying Christians don’t shape culture or policy, we have been seeing for decades now the result of that. This has been a false statement from the beginning, as Christianity is what shaped America into the blessed nation she became, faults and all.
America never abandoned her Christian roots, and that is why her citizens continued fighting for the freedom of those who were oppressed and stood on biblical values in all aspects of cutlure.
When they don’t, we get a society that mutilates children, opposes God in every way possible and persecutes any who think differently than what the satanic narrative proposes.
Hopefully, this will be a wake-up call to consumers to put their money where their values are, and for companies like John Deere to think twice before adopting discriminatory and destructive Marxist policies.
