FARMERS FIRST.
AMERICA FIRST.
Promises made. ✅
Promises kept. ✅
Thank you, @POTUS. More work to be done, but progress made.
God Bless our great farmers and ranchers.

America’s veterans fought for our freedom. Now we’re fighting to help them build businesses, own farms, and provide for their families. 🇺🇸
Honored to join @VP, @SBA_Kelly, @SecVetAffairs, and 115 veteran small business owners for @SBAgov’s National Veterans Small Business Week kickoff.
Under @POTUS, @USDA is delivering real support: nearly $200 MILLION to help more than 550 veteran farming operations purchase and operate farms, and over $20 MILLION invested in veteran-owned businesses.
That support means jobs and opportunity. Our investment in veteran-owned Kansas City Cattle Company will help expand its storefront and sell beef directly to Americans, preserving seven jobs and creating six more.
We’re also bringing veterans onto our own team. Our “100 Hires in 100 Days” initiative hired 204 veterans—more than DOUBLE our goal.
God bless our veterans and the country they fought to defend!
A fourth-generation ranching family is facing a $267,540 fine and potentially more than $3.7 MILLION in compliance costs over livestock watering ponds.
Now, they’re fighting for their constitutional right to a jury trial — with a case that could reach the US Supreme Court.
THIS is why we launched @USDA’s Farmer and Rancher Freedom Framework.
No American farmer or rancher should have to risk losing their livelihood fighting to defend their property rights and due process.
I first met Wade and Teresa King last year, and we’ve been working with them ever since. In February, we welcomed them to Washington for the launch of our Freedom Framework, where they connected with @PacificLegal, which is now representing them in their legal fight.
We stood with the Kings then, and we stand with them NOW.
We will NEVER stop fighting to protect the property rights, freedoms, and livelihoods of the hardworking Americans who feed our nation. 🇺🇸

🇺🇸USDA UNSUNG HERO🇺🇸
One of the greatest parts of serving as Secretary of Agriculture is getting to know the incredible people who make @USDA so special. Across every agency and every corner of this Department are dedicated public servants who work tirelessly for America’s farmers, ranchers, and rural communities.
Today, I’m proud to recognize one of those unsung heroes: Steve Peterson, Associate Administrator of the Farm Service Agency.
For more than FOUR DECADES, Steve has devoted his career to American agriculture, helping turn major Presidential initiatives into real, meaningful assistance for the producers who need it most.
Known for being the first to arrive and the last to leave, Steve represents the very best of public service. His work ethic, institutional knowledge, and unwavering dedication have made a lasting impact on this Department and the people we serve.
Steve, THANK YOU for your decades of faithful service. People like you are the heart of USDA, and I am so grateful to have you on our team!
A true USDA UNSUNG HERO! 🇺🇸
Whatever lies ahead, we can face it with faith, knowing God is always by our side.
His strength never fails, His promises never change, and His presence never leaves us.
Proud to stand alongside @SecWar as he works tirelessly to strengthen our military, defend our homeland, and put America’s security FIRST.
At @USDA, we know that farm security is national security. Through our National Farm Security Action Plan, we’ve worked alongside @SecWar to protect American farmland from foreign adversaries, secure our food supply, and safeguard the farmers and ranchers who feed our nation.
Because farm security IS national security. 🇺🇸
Thank you, @SusieWiles47! From helping lead President Trump’s historic comeback to serving as the first woman White House Chief of Staff, you’ve led with kindness and resolve.
It has been a privilege to serve alongside you and I will never forget those early 2021 days when only a few of us were in the arena.
And speaking of just a few of us in the arena back then... Congratulations to @StephenM! You and Katie are true patriots. Excited to continue our work together on fraud, making school lunches healthy again, and bringing real prosperity back to rural America. No worthier causes than these and no better leader than you to make it so.
There’s more work ahead to deliver @POTUS’ America First agenda, and we’re ready.
Let’s get it done! 🇺🇸
Today is my last day as White House Chief of Staff.
Serving President Trump in the White House has been the honor of a lifetime. I’m so proud to have been a part of what we’ve accomplished together from securing our border and cutting taxes to strengthening our economy and putting America First.
More than anything, I’m grateful for the extraordinary people I’ve had the privilege of working alongside. While my role may be changing, my commitment to the President and the mission never will.
AMERICA FIRST.
RESULTS THAT SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. RESTORING THE AMERICAN DREAM ONE STEP AT A TIME. 🇺🇸
More jobs. More opportunity. A stronger American workforce.
Thank you, Mr. President!
🚨AFFORDABILITY ALERT!🇺🇸
Thanksgiving sides and staples for under $20.
Under @POTUS, we’re seeing real progress on grocery costs — and retailers are responding.
Nearly 100 holiday items are now priced lower at more than 21,000 @DollarGeneral stores nationwide. More work ahead, but America First policies are putting more food on the table and more money in your wallet.
We saw what happened under Biden: America became a net food importer for the first time in 2023, the farm economy lost $90 billion, input costs surged 40%, and our agricultural trade surplus became a $50 billion deficit.
Under @POTUS, we’re turning the corner. 20 new trade deals, lower input costs, and record exports on the horizon for American farmers and ranchers.
Farmers and ranchers are BACK at the center of policy making in Washington, D.C. 🇺🇸

TUNE IN! 🇺🇸
Egg prices are down from their highs. Beef prices have fallen four months in a row. That’s real progress for families at the grocery store. 📷
Under President Trump, we’re fighting to bring grocery costs down and give America’s farmers and ranchers the freedom to do what they do best.
There’s more work ahead. We won’t let up.
Under the Biden-Harris Administration, grocery prices soared more than 23%, putting enormous pressure on hardworking American families.
From DAY ONE, President Trump has made lowering grocery costs a priority. 🇺🇸
From combating bird flu to protect our poultry supply and stabilize egg prices to cutting burdensome regulations that drive up production costs for farmers and ranchers, this Administration is taking action.
And we’re seeing progress.
Since January 2025, prices for several key grocery items, including certain proteins, dairy products, and fruits, have declined. 🥚🐓🧀🧈🍇🍓🫐
And CPI data shows beef prices have come down for three consecutive months.
But our work is far from over.
American families deserve affordable groceries, and American farmers and ranchers deserve the freedom to produce.
Under President Trump, we will keep working to lower costs, strengthen American agriculture, and deliver relief for hardworking families. 🇺🇸
Joining @BigMoneyMorning LIVE from the White House on @FoxBusiness!
Make sure to tune in!!!
🚨 TUESDAY TAKEDOWN 🚨
A Pennsylvania welfare supervisor is accused of stealing more than $20,500 in food assistance benefits — and trading EBT cards for CRACK COCAINE.
Prosecutors say Sheila McDonald’s alleged scheme involved 48 EBT cards and more than 270 unauthorized transactions. She now faces multiple felony charges.
Benefits meant to feed families should NEVER bankroll drugs.
A Thanksgiving dinner for just $25? Now THAT is something to be thankful for! 🦃🇺🇸
This holiday season, @POTUS is working to lower prices and put MORE food on your table and MORE money in your wallet!
Thank you @amazon for stepping up and offering a complete Thanksgiving meal for just $25! There is more work ahead, but this is another step toward making America affordable again.
MORE COMPETITION.
LOWER COSTS.
STRONGER KANSAS AGRICULTURE.
Today, I joined @RogerMarshallMD at El Dorado Livestock Barn to hear directly from Kansas farmers and ranchers — and discuss the work we’re delivering for them.
Under @POTUS, we’re taking ACTION:
✅ Backing 10 Kansas meat processors through our latest $57 MILLION meat processing expansion announcement — helping independent businesses grow and giving ranchers more options to sell their livestock.
✅ Supporting a fertilizer project in Lewis, Kansas, through FIELDS to expand American fertilizer production and reduce reliance on foreign suppliers.
✅ Delivering $842 MILLION in farm safety net payments to Kansas producers, which began going out last month using increased reference prices from the Working Families Tax Cuts Act.
✅ Developing President Trump’s $8 BILLION Harvest Fuel Relief program, with eligibility and payment details coming in mid-November.
✅ Announcing $3 MILLION to expand Kansas’ voluntary hunting and fishing access programs—helping open 40,000 additional acres for hunting, 250 acres for fishing, and two river access sites.
We’re fighting to keep your operations strong, your markets competitive, and your way of life alive for the next generation.
More work to be done, but this is progress!
