Breitbart ^ | 7/24/2025 | Simon Kent

Posted on 07/24/2025 8:53:54 AM PDT by Tell It Right

That follows a spectacular backflip Thursday where the left-wing Labor government of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced the end of all restrictions levelled against American beef imports in a move the White House hailed as a major victory over “non-scientific trade barriers” that had stranded U.S. farmers “on the sidelines” for two decades.

Beef is so expensive here, I don’t see the need to export any for now.

They are only playing ball because we hold the best cards. The silly part is, we have always held the best cards.

Mr. President, speaking of beef, how about reinstituting Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) for beef and pork.

If you believe all the Aussies who post on You Tube Albanese or ‘’Albo’’ as he’s called, is roundly hated as Starmer is in Britain and Carney in Canada.

Apparently the three are former WEF bankers and lawyers.
