‘The frustration is overwhelming’: Soybean farmers feel betrayed as Argentina blows a hole in rural America’s $47 billion soybean bonanza | Fortune
China will reportedly buy at least 10 cargoes of Argentine soybeans, further jeopardizing the U.S. export market, even as Argentina gobbles up Trump support.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on social media on Wednesday that he and Trump spoke at length with Argentina president Javier Milei about plants to financially support Argentina to assist in its stabilization. The Treasury is negotiating with Argentina for a $20 billion swap line with Argentina’s central bank, Bessent said on X.com. As part of its effort to increase the flow of capital, Argentina also suspended its export taxes this week, including on soybeans.
Amid the negotiations with the U.S., Argentina reportedly strengthened its trade partnership with China, whch ordered at least 10 cargoes of soybeans from the South American country, according to Reuters, which cited multiple traders.
The moves have dealt a blow to soybean farmers in the U.S., who are strongly dependent on exports to China, and have continued to be priced out of the global market due to tariffs hiking the cost of their crop in the midst of its busy harvest season. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s weekly export summaries, China has not bought U.S. soybeans since May.
Needless to say, the Midwest Farming Community is Not Amused by the tons of soybeans piling up in silos because of the tariffs trade war and are ruing their votes last November.‘The frustration is overwhelming’: Soybean farmers feel betrayed as Argentina blows a hole in rural America’s $47 billion soybean bonanza | Fortune

This from a member of a fishing royalty family whose in laws own a large IA farm. The tumbling price of beans have already dropped below the cost of planting and harvesting.

So basically, she condoned cheating?
Obviously hard-wired to be a Democrat.
It seems all her ads lean heavily on being a Navy helicopter pilot. Very heavily. Most of her policy comments either make zero sense, or are just political pandering "I'm gonna...." statements with no actual plan. That and trying to associate her competition with Trump. What that has to do with being a governor?...?...?
But hey, she flew helicopters in the Navy! Did she mention that?

Trump greets Bryson DeChambeau at Ryder Cup to kick off afternoon session
President Donald Trump shook hands with Bryson DeChambeau at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, New York, on Friday to kick off the LIV Golf star’s afternoon session of the 2025 Ryder Cup.
www.foxnews.com
Trump greeted DeChambeau, who was in the second group, as the pair walked over to the first tee. The president’s arrival at Bethpage Black had already been met with loud cheers as the crowd again broke out in U-S-A chants.
Wonder why I did not see this on the MSNBC website?
Trying to use critical thinking skills and reading other sources but could not find anything about the appearance of our President at the Ryder Cup on that site.
