If you are meat eater then you will be well aware of the high cost of meat, especially beef…..as Americans struggle to afford meat there is a USDA report that says US beef exports are high…..(for those not sure an export is a commodity, article, or service sold abroad.) So why we struggle and that idiot president is making billions the people here are screwed while the middle man makes profit.
With U.S. beef prices soaring and supplies tight, the U.S. Department of Agriculture surprised meat producers and traders on Thursday by reporting a spike in the nation’s export sales, fueling questions over the accuracy of the data.
The beef export sales, reported in weekly USDA data, included deals that may have taken place months ago, contributing to the sudden increase, the agency told Reuters. Traders said the totals still looked excessive.
U.S. beef exports have declined since 2022 due to high prices and scarce inventories, and an increase could further raise costs for domestic consumers already facing higher grocery bills during the summer grilling season.
Beef prices broke records this year due to strong demand and a persistent drought that drove U.S. ranchers to slash their cattle herds.
USDA said in its report that net export sales of U.S. beef for delivery in 2026 reached 126,062 metric tons in the week ended June 25, a marketing-year high that was up almost 500% from a week earlier. The figure may include several months of data, the agency later said in an email.
It is time for the moron in the White House to step up and do something for the people of this country….I realize we are not his favorite people but at least act like you are concerned for those that elected him.
I know I am dreaming mfor the arc of Trump is far more important than the hunger in this country.
What a douche!
