I’m not done with harvest and need to go.. but here’s my response.. I’ll give Trump co their due when they achieve positive results.. but unlike some on here.. I’m not a lap dog.. the pain they are causing is real.. they need to address it and fix it..

then I’ll come around.

my response..

Congratulations Joe and Mackenzie on a very good interview. When Dr Roger Marshall initially ran around introducing Ag Sec Rollins.. I had high hopes. She’s smart, articulate, she digs into the details.. etc.. I was impressed. If we are going to rebuild the industrial base WE WILL NEED WORKERS!! Instead of modernizing our immigration system they attacked it.. rounding up the VERY PEOPLE whom fed us during Covid.

I used to believe A lot of Fox News.. However, EVERY DAY at the 15 minute mark of Brett Baiers newscast they run their “illegal migrant killed” followed up with an “attack on ICE” story.. now for probably a YEAR plus now. They’ve lost me.. as these are SLANDERING an entire population of people whom like our forefathers just want to “live the American dream.” 98% of them get up.. go to work.. doing the tough jobs.. which natives WILL NOT DO.. plenty of opportunities for a couple million gamers sucking the welfare teat to get off their back sides.. but for many reasons.. mainly health.. THEY CAN NOT DO THE PHYSICAL WORK.. involved. It is IMPOSSIBLE to be deported.. then come in “the right way” whatever the hell that is.. as immigration is broken.. the lines from Mexico are 28 YEARS!!!

Furthermore, A VERY HIGH PERCENTAGE WHO HAVEN’T lived at wherever they are being sent.. will be mugged, raped and killed.. the last time Trump did this over 200 deportees we’re murdered..  https://www.hrw.org/report/2020/02/05/deported-danger/united-states-deportation-policies-expose-salvadorans-death-and  now approaching 2 million (yes some need to be) but the VAST MAJORITY like ones whom I knew/know.. built businesses.. paid taxes.. would have voted for Trump.. it’s a very.. “What the *ell are Yal doing?” Frustration for those of us witnessing the damage these policies are ravaging on hard working people whom live in our communities.

I’ve coached the sons and daughters.. some who have gone on to serve in the military to earn their citizenship.. Trumps inhumane deportee policies leave a VERY BITTER NAZI esq vibe as masked men attack.. the gardener, the cleaning lady.. the packing plant mother of 2 the mom of the marines children .. etc. why doesn’t Fox cover that? Doesn’t fit the narrative.. which just shows how OUT OF TOUCH the New York media is.. vs what’s REALLY going on. Yal 500 bad guys did bad things.. get them out.. but that’s no reason to condemn a couple million hard working honest conservative.. potential trump supporters out.. while PISSING OFF their friends like me watching this tragedy.

I regret my 3 times voting for Trump when I see and witness this. Inexcusable.. and Marshall is next if he doesn’t start DOING SOMETHING about this!!

Great you’re addressing H2A.. that will help.

Trade agreements.. broke them.. now trying to fix them.. fine so you’re using our livelihoods as “leverage” to create change. Just don’t forget whose livelihoods are the bargaining chip here.

I was raised on Milton Friedman.. nothing has changed there.. however, we do need to address unfair trade imbalances..

Biofuels offer a great future.. renewable.. cheaper.. you don’t have to invade another country as we are the Saudi Arabia of grain production.. we should BUILD AROUND THAT.. CONTINUE to build our livestock herds.. good to hear about opportunities going forward.. open up the CRP.. offer transition.. beginning rancher can fence off.. while owner still receives a payment.. transition period back to grass.. where it needs to be going forward. Vs just growing up in trees.

We NEED Nation wide E-15.. as well as ethanol exports. This is the engine driving the ag economy now. Our energy infrastructure and ability to feed not only our selves but the ability to create and export wealth.. to a world where the average income for 6 billion people is $2 a day. This is what makes America the shining beacon on a hill. We will defeat our enemies.. Putin.. Chinese expansion into Tiawan, North Korea.. with our ability to feed, fuel, clothe and grow our economies as well as those of our friends. Maduro in Venezuela should be deposed and can be by winning over economically what we do (yet we’re deporting the refugees who came here..) equip them.. take over Venezuela by our ability to feed and grow our gdp.. same as the iron curtain.

We need a modern day Marshall plan.. which broke the cycle of wars in Europe.. and made friends.. West Germany and Japan our greatest Allie’s.. while East Germany suffered under Soviet retribution..See Ukraine today.. they Yearn to be Westerners.. and are willing to fight for that.. Ukraine is important to Putin because.. like the US heartland.. it’s the source of food.. and energy production.

We HAVE what everyone else wants.. leverage that.. export Freedom and hope.. not fortress America.

Y’all can rally here and get back on track.. don’t drop the ball now.
