On the recordApril 15, 2026
I am back again talking about something that is very, very important to everybody in the United States of America. There should be alarms going off about what is happening. I know we have a lot of bad things happening all over the world. We are in conflicts. We are in situations where we are trying to control our own destiny when we are not getting a lot of help from a lot of people that we should be counting on. But let's talk about the United States of America for a second. Let's talk about our farmers. Our farmers are in trouble. We better wake up and smell the roses because what is happening in this country should be a crime. We have lost, just in the last few years, 150,000 farms and over 25,000 farmers--150,000. And we take pride in what we do in this country. We do everything as first class as we possibly can and we are running people out of business right and left and it is getting worse. Nobody is listening. Nobody is out there pounding on all of our doors saying, 'We need help,' other than the ones right now that are in desperate and dire need. Again, we have a lot of problems. But you think we have problems. We start and continue to lose these farmers that we have in this country, and we continue to eat the trash that is sent in from these foreign countries, we are going to have many, many more problems. It is a big deal because there is not one State in this country that doesn't deal in farming in some capacity--not one State.
