Safeguarding property rights means ensuring you have the right to own and manage your land & livestock as you see fit, without government intrusion or mandates.

[David P. Huebner @Huebner4NebrCD3]

🥩 I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Flooding the U.S. market with poor quality imported beef only helps the Big Packers who are, ironically, the biggest reason for the increased prices in the grocery store. Two of these four Big Packing companies in America are foreign owned, as many of us in the 3rd District know.

Bring back Mandatory Country of Origin Labeling (MCOOL) to inform consumers and let them choose which country they want beef from, federally investigate price fixing, pursue antitrust laws on the books, pass the PRIME Act to get government out of the way to facilitate local sales, and get foreign beef lobbyists out of the pockets of Congressmen.

[Mathew with Cottage Pastures @Mathew_Winters1]

This is one of the most alarming situations happening now in the beef supply industry.

1.) cattle producers are being incentivized with incredibly high market rates to sell their cattle to auction. Many will likely choose to send their breeding stock as well because they have no guarantee the price will ever justify not doing so now.

2.) political, social and economic pressures have assured farmers that they are often the least respected trades in the country. I predict farmers will soon be accused of being selfish for selling their cattle at auction versus keeping them to expand herds in the coming years. But at the end of the day, the farmer pays their mortgage, input costs and more - individually the farmer loses this if not paid for.

3.) increase in awareness for healthy, American beef actually causes increase in demand - but producers can’t just make more beef. 9 month gestation, 1.5 - 2.5 years to grow out. With market prices high, farmers now have to decide between selling to auction for top dollar or selling to neighbors and potentially lose out on revenue.

4.) higher costs at auction works for selling party but raises costs of acquisition for new cattle. This creates a classic supply - demand issue but long term is leading to lost opportunity for less capital heavy producers to build, expand or be incentivized to retail cattle.

5.) this is a story that has already been played out with chicken and pigs… this is probably the most important point.

[Jeff Ferguson @FergusonFarms90]

Yes , the consumers in this country deserve to know if their beef is grown and raised in the USA by producers like @cattleguy92 or many others of us like him . It’s time for country of origin labeling ! @SecRollins @POTUS @trentloos

[Cattleman🪓 @cattleguy92]

Doing our part out here!
One tho g I do know for sure. Importing cheap cuts of beef isn’t gonna help the Rancher or the consumers!
Say no to imported meat!
Say Yes to American beef 🥩🇺🇸

[Jenny Sauer-Schmidgall @TheWittyFarmer]

As U.S. cattle producers, we’re being asked to make long-term, capital-intensive decisions—like retaining heifers and rebuilding herds—that only make sense when there’s confidence in stable domestic demand. When policy signals instead point toward increased beef imports, it undermines that incentive.

If producers are expected to invest years of time, land, and capital into herd expansion, there must be assurance that domestic production will be prioritized rather than displaced. Otherwise, importing beef sends the opposite message: that rebuilding the U.S. cattle herd carries risk without reward.

🚨 TRUMP EXPOSES THE GREENLAND LIE — AND NATO CAN’T DENY IT

President Trump just dropped a truth bomb the globalists hoped would stay buried.

For 25 YEARS, NATO warned Denmark about the growing threat in the Arctic.

Not months.
Not years.

A quarter of a century.
Russia.
China.
Encroaching. Watching. Positioning.

And Denmark did nothing.

Now suddenly — when Trump says America must secure Greenland for national security — the same elites pretend this came out of nowhere.

It didn’t.

Trump isn’t escalating the situation.

He’s responding to decades of negligence.

Greenland sits at the crossroads of:
• Arctic missile routes
• Russian naval movement
• Chinese strategic expansion
• The northern gateway to North America

This isn’t about land.

It’s about defence of the Western Hemisphere.

NATO knew.
Denmark was warned.

Nothing was done.

Now Trump is doing what others refused to do — act before it’s too late.

That’s why Davos is nervous.
That’s why Brussels is panicking.
That’s why the narrative is collapsing.

Because Trump isn’t breaking the system.

He’s exposing how long it’s been broken.
And the Arctic is where the next great power struggle will be decided.

America first — even at the top of the world.

My Venezuela experience as head of trading in the region for Cargill.

Cargill was/is the leading producer of critical staple ingredients such as flour, pasta, vegetable oil, and rice in VZ. I am not saying I agree with grabbing the dictator, but I did have a front row seat to the damage a kleptocracy did to innocent people.
1. The government took over our "minute rice" facility at gunpoint because we were "gouging" the nation's poor. The government was never able to run the plant. It never ran again. It was returned years later with no equipment inside
2. There are 1000's of generals in the army. They are each given a slice of the economy to loot. The large number of generals made it difficult to organize a coup against the regime.
3. The government opened grocery stores and sold staples below the cost we sold them to the government. In theory they used petro oil money to lower grocery prices. Our regular grocery outlets were forced out of business. When the government demanded we sell them products below cost we simply had to shut down. The populous became ever more dependent on the government handouts. (PS this is the mayor of New York City's proposal.
4. Dollars- We needed dollars to go buy raw materials like wheat from places like the US and Canada. The government would periodically allocate us some dollars that could only be spent for raw materials and freight. Eventually only the local companies that can and would pay bribes got dollar allocations. We had several facilities closed for lack of raw material
5. My employees liked working for Cargill. The office was an armed compound with access to a gym, high speed internet, global communications, and a weekly box of basic staples. Cargill provided a safe and secure environment if only for the working hours.
6. Employees became very close to others inside the apartment building. Going out on the street with a desperate population was not advisable.
7. I needed wood pallets for feed. We tried to export wood pallets to swap for grain. We refused to pay the bribes it would take to export the pallets
8. I once tried to set up a closed loop wheat planting to flour mill supply chain. A. They came and stole all the seed wheat for food. When we tried to ship in seed wheat in containers via US donors there was no way to get it out of the port without it being stolen
9. Livestock- Our feed business completely collapsed. Even if you could raise a pig, you couldn't defend it from being stolen. People with guns were hungry.
10. Employees- In the end my highly skilled team alone with other highly educated people chose to leave. Cargill often found jobs for them in other Latin countries. The regime was more than happy to see the well-educated leave the country. Setting these employees up with high quality stable jobs after fleeing remains one of the best things I ever did in my career. No one remembers millions in trading earnings.

This is a short list. In my opinion the first money spent needs to happen now and it needs to be food. The US is already on the clock. The current regime does not care if it starves the population. The orgy of theft will actually accelerate if they believe their days are numbered. VZ should be an outstanding customer of US grown ag products. Rice, bread wheat, veg oil ect. Feed the people first.

Uncle Ted is right, it's our money and it should come back to us. Every Sunday. These people have robbed us for longer than any of us knows. There is absolutely no reason for someone who makes $175k annually as a government employee to come out of office a multi-millionaire.
