Years ago I worked for a large grain company that ended up selling to another company. We had contracts with the Chinese for a LOT of soybeans and loaded them out of Beaumont, Texas, and Lake Charles, Louisiana. The paperwork even back then was an absolute nightmare and we worked 24/7 for almost two weeks. But the feds did let us go right from rail cars to the ships. Had cots in our grading room so we could sleep half an hour or so every four-six hours. Company made a whole lot of money that year as did the farmers. Contracts were negotiated between the company and the Chinese. Bet the government got involved this time. Would be interesting to see the terms of the deal.

1) U.S. to get out of Pacific.

2) Destroy Trump (incite Iowa farmers to vote against him, with the massive help from the local chamber of commerce.)
