Which is why I find it alarming that PRC nationals are buying massive amounts of farmland in the US, South America, and Africa. These people aren’t sprinting, they’re playing the long game and betting on us imploding into civil war . The more we fight amongst ourselves and remain divided, the more those communists sit back and laugh at us

The tip of the spear is nothing without the shaft and the force of a providing people to propel it! The people who provide this force are nothing if they cannot eat!

General Omar N. Bradley: “Amateurs talk strategy. Professionals talk logistics.” “Beans and bullets” win wars and upon the end of this staff is the tip of the spear that remains having gone through the gauntlet of refining to represent a nation’s true character that provides the fulcrum deciding victory! Our special forces!

Control a people’s food supply and you control a whole population! Just sayin’!

I would enjoy an episode on regenerative farming and the security of American farming and the dying small American farm in America.

Additionally, investigate “Ventrac” as a possible sponsor. This is not a solid recommendation but just something to investigate. As I could not validate this is USA owned and managed.

The TSC ad please reach out to Big “R” and “Farm and Fleet” to your sponsors as well.
