The "farm aid" provision is pure unadulterated pork - new payments mostly to industrial soybean farmers for essentially nothing, because Trump tariffs will mean retaliatory tariffs on American soybean exports, which is 60% or more of soy farm income....they want the money allocated now to "pay" them for stuff they cannot export profitably at any price.Now Johnson is talking about a bill that excludes farm aid and hurricane-disaster relief.
Those were the controversial parts?!
Can't they just plant something else on the same land?In the short term, soybean farmers are fucked as long as Trump supports tariffs.
In the long term, soybean farmers are fucked because they can no longer command premium prices for soybeans due to Trump essentially allowing a large new competitor into the market.
Go back in your hole, Commie welfare boy.Tell me you don't know fuckin' shit about the 2008 crash without saying you don't know fuckin' shit about the 2008 crash.

Interesting:Republicans failed to pass the revised continuing resolution.
Clown Show in action!![]()
I wonder why?Republicans in the House said they had settled on a new version of the continuing resolution ahead of the vote on Thursday after President-elect Donald Trump tanked a previous spending bill that initially won bipartisan support.
But the final vote was 174-235-1. Thirty-eight Republicans flouted Trump and voted against the continuing resolution.
Sounds like those RINOs are being too tough on the Orange Goon and President Musk.Republicans in The House are pissed about President Musk’s and DonOld’s demand to raise the debt ceiling for two years, and they are saying they are a hard NO on President Musk’s and DonOld’s new bill.
If those 38 Republicans are primaried from the right, they will not be replaced in Congress by Trumpers. They will be replaced by Democrats. That's how it usually goes. And no shutdown ever shrinks the government or reduces its payroll.LOL. 38 Republicans heading to be primaried and a Government shutdown. This is good. The less government the better. Might get rid of a lot of deadweight here.

Did they say what their objections are?The 38 who voted against the continuing resolution are the FreeDumb Caucus members that you love so much. Here’s the full list:

Only if you can watch it from a foreign country.It's just so satisfying to watch.
Not to mention all the laid-off workers busy getting his inaugural parade set to kick off. How the hell is that gonna look for him with nothing set up, no parade route guards, etc? Maybe he'll get Musk to handle the crowds via AI.If the the government is shut down when Trump takes office, that's gonna put a serious crimp in his plan to be a Day One dictator.
Thanks to the felon once again. He is not even in office, and he's fucking up the farming economy again with his financial monkey friend.The "farm aid" provision is pure unadulterated pork - new payments mostly to industrial soybean farmers for essentially nothing, because Trump tariffs will mean retaliatory tariffs on American soybean exports, which is 60% or more of soy farm income....they want the money allocated now to "pay" them for stuff they cannot export profitably at any price.
Soybean farmers are being crippled in the long term because markets needing to import soybeans will turn to Brazil which has ideal land for cultivating soybeans and with the USA playing Trumpian one-upmanship games, Brazil has had time create massive "super farms" to grow crops and become a major player (and a huge competitor to the USA) in soybean exports.
In the short term, soybean farmers are fucked as long as Trump supports tariffs.
In the long term, soybean farmers are fucked because they can no longer command premium prices for soybeans due to Trump essentially allowing a large new competitor into the market.
In summary, the USA is getting it's ass kicked in Soybean Exports by Brazil and has since 2015.
Knowing Trump, he would not be above hiring Swiss Guards from the Vatican. Just for the flashy, colorful uniforms.Not to mention all the laid-off workers busy getting his inaugural parade set to kick off. How the hell is that gonna look for him with nothing set up, no parade route guards, etc? Maybe he'll get Musk to handle the crowds via AI.
