25 Oct 2025
Chapter 1: What are Donald Trump's recent actions that impact farmers?
Tulosyy, terveystalon määräaikaistarkastus. Välillä kipua hartioissa, sormissa puutumisoireita. Asiakas kertoo tekevänsä kausiluonteista tiimityötä pakkauslinjastolla, ajoittain epäergonomisissa asennoissa. Pitkän työkokemuksen myötä löytänyt kuitenkin toimivattavat tonttuilla, vielä seuraavatkin sata vuotta. Me keskitymme terveyteen, jotta tontut voivat keskittyä tärkeimpään. Terveystalo on Joulupukin virallinen työterveyskumppani.
Herra budjettiministeri, aletaanko nyt? Aletaan ja oikein kunnolla aletaan. Mitä tarkoitat? Että aletaan aivan kaikkea. Voitteko tarkentaa? Aletaan vaatteita, aletaan välineitä, aletaan varusteita. Siis kaikkea ulkoilu, urheilu ja vapaa-aika. Nyt en ymmärrä. Ehkäpä ymmärrätte paremmin numeroita. Putkesportissa on nyt jopa 60 prosentin ale. Eli? Aivan, putkesport.fi.

So as Americans are absolutely livid at Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans' government shutdown, as Americans are puzzled and pissed about why taxpayers here are giving $40 billion to Argentina to bail out Donald Trump's MAGA puppet dictator, Javier Millet, there, which we're just flushing our money down the drain, while 20 million Americans are set to lose healthcare, Donald Trump upped the ante and said, you know what, we're not just going to give Argentina that $40 billion.
Haluaisin vain kertoa kaupungillisille, jotka ovat täällä Yhdysvalloissa. Meidän pitäisi tuoda myös Argentiinalaisen vihreä, joka on todella huonosti. Meidän pitäisi tuoda se vihreä, laittaa sen täältä ja vähentää omaa kaupungillamme. Sitten me voimme poistaa Yhdysvaltoja, kun olemme täällä. Ehkä teemme vähän UFC-kohtia yli Yhdysvaltoja.
destroy the rose garden and what else? Then I'll just golf all weekend. So then Donald Trump sends his agriculture secretary, Brooke Rollins, and she makes her rounds on the show. And she's asked, what are you doing here? Why would we be undercutting our cattle ranchers? Now, at the same time, we're bailing out Argentina. It makes no sense. You want to
bankrupt our cattle ranchers? What about the free market as well? And so Brooke Rollins is asked, is importing beef from Argentina a possibility like Trump said? Here's what she says. Play this clip. What about beef from Argentina? Is that a possibility?
President has mentioned it a couple of times. I think you'll be hearing more about exactly what that looks like. Right now in America we consume about 12 million metric tons of beef. 10 million of that we produce here in America, but the 2 million I'm talking about we've been offshoring. There's different parts of that, what McDonald's buys in ground beef versus the actual muscle cuts, which is what a lot of Americans, the healthy part of all of this.
So then she just filibusters the rest of the answer, but she confirms that that is the plan. You're the United States agriculture secretary. You realize that, right? You're not the Argentinian agriculture secretary or the agriculture secretary from Brazil. The one thing that your job is is to defend your American cattle ranchers, basically defend American agriculture.

Chapter 2: How is the government shutdown affecting farmers and ranchers?
There's that piece, but it's also tough, because there are all of these factors that are out of the control of the farmer. They're having to deal with the uncertainty of weather. They're having to deal with the uncertainty of the international space. When Russia invaded Ukraine, the price of fertilizer skyrocketed. All these inputs that are rising
They are trying to navigate all of this and the last thing they need is the uncertainty being created by these tariffs and it's the uncertainty being created by nonsensical policy of importing Argentinian beef.
And I apologize for interrupting you. I just got really worked up about that. Oh, not at all. Where I was going was, I said, so you look to your left in Kansas, and you've got cattle ranches. You look to your right, you've got soybean farmers, right? The state's producing nearly 200 million bushels annually across 4.7 million acres. And then the soybean farmers are looking to your cattle ranches. They go, wait a minute, we're getting screwed too. What do you mean? Well, the soybean farmers are saying, well, we don't have an export market anymore because China's not buying soybeans.
Nyt Trump puhutaan hallituksen käsittelyistä maahanmuuttajille. Maahanmuuttajat kertovat, että heillä on tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota tuota
and while dangling in front of us that you may bail us out. We don't even know what that even means. Who are you going to bail out? The cattle rancher? The soybean farmer? Who gets priority over who? And then you're telling us we should fix the market. It's a wild concept to your point that Mr. New York City guy is out there screwing the soybean farmer, the cattle rancher. But some of these people still vote for him. What's it going to take? Some still say, you know, he loves me, though. No, he doesn't. He hates you.
Luulen, että tämä... Tämä liittyy... Tiedän, että tulemme keskustelemaan uudistuksia, mutta tämä lisähtää, miten meillä on liian monia poliitikkoja, jotka ovat valmiita... ignore the voices and the needs of the folks that they are supposed to be representing. And when we talk about the impact of tariff policy or this idea of importing beef from Argentina, it is like,
It couldn't be the furthest thing away from listening to the folks who depend on the federal government and our elected officials to actually show up in Washington DC and do the job of bringing the voices, needs, concerns and even the successes of our constituents out here and try to make it so that they have a dependable
luonnollista kansallista hallintoa, joka ei vaikuta heille vaikeisiin asioihin. Tällä hetkellä se on juuri se, mitä tämä poliisi tekee. Tämä presidentti on suunniteltu liian monia ekstremiä poliiseja, jotka vaikuttavat niin moniin Amerikkoihin, jopa 79 000 kansalaisiin, jotka pysyvät terveydenhuoltoonsa, koska he käsittelevät budjetin, jotta biljonneurit saaisivat lisää lopputuloksia.
Ja haluan mennä uudistusryhmään, mutta haluan muistaa, että Kansassa suomalainen, suomalainen Laura Kelly, jonka olemme keskustelleet täällä jo aiemmin, hän on demokraattinen. Donald Trump on saanut valtion vuoteen vuonna 2024 16 pointtia.

Chapter 3: What are the implications of importing beef from Argentina?
Mielestäni se on tärkeä asia. Siinä täytyy olla keskusteluja. Se kuulostaa niin yksinkertaiselta, mutta kun opetamme hallituksesta, se on niin, että valtioiden pitäisi puhua yhdessä. On ok, jos he eivät ymmärrä. Sitten he saavat kompromissin ja ratkaisun.
and then they you know figure it out and right now maga mike johnson has said he's ordered the republicans do not talk do not converse no conversations allowed yet alone negotiations and i think that's what just pissing a lot of people off they're like wait a minute the magas are saying that they're not talking they're not going to do they're too good to speak to the other side when they need the votes that's not the way it should
