We Have A President Again

U.S. struck over 800 Houthi targets: The ongoing military action against the Yemen-based Houthi terrorist group hasn't garnered much media attention despite its ferocious nature. More than 800 Houthi rebel targets have been struck in the last six weeks, with the Yemeni government claiming at least 68 dead in one recent strike. CENTCOM reports that multiple command-and-control facilities, air defense systems, and weapons manufacturing and storage locations have been destroyed. Hundreds of fighters and many Houthi leaders have also been killed, but the Houthi back has not yet been broken. American losses include up to seven MQ-9 Predator drones and an F/A-18E Super Hornet. The jet was not lost in action but appears to have fallen overboard when its aircraft carrier was engaged in evasive maneuvers.
 
Came across this. It's from about month ago. If the democrats and phony republicans have their way, we'll be relying on the communist countries for our food one of these days.

Tariffs are needed to reduce America’s massive global food deficit

Since 1980, the U.S. has increased its population by 115 million but lost 650,000 beef cow farms. When President Trump imposed 25 percent tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, news pundits were quick to focus on potential price impacts...

Over the past 30 years, Washington has pursued “free trade” policies, including the elimination of tariffs, intended to lower consumer prices. This sounded great, in theory. However, the real-world result has been the ongoing dismantlement of America’s domestic beef supply chain and commercial sheep industry.

Under “free trade,” overseas cattle producers enjoy a price advantage. They pay their workers lower wages, and their safety and environmental standards are weaker than those mandated for America’s domestic farmers. As a result, importers make large profits by bringing in cheap meat and produce, leading to lower-quality, potentially unsafe food for U.S. families.

This has successfully eroded America’s domestic ability to meet its food needs. Consider that, since 1980, the U.S. population has grown by roughly 115 million people. In the same time frame, our nation has lost more than 650,000 beef cow farms — over half of all its beef cow farms. The U.S. has also lost 78% of its feedlots and 54% of its federally inspected food plants. The Big Four of meatpackers now control 85% of the fed cattle industry.
