Trump's beef tariff pause followed meeting with JBS co-owner, reports say — 1dPresident Trump announced a 90-day waiver allowing up to 300,000 metric tons of ground beef to enter tariff-free, a move critics say could disrupt cattle markets and hinder U.S. herd rebuilding even as the administration frames it as consumer relief. Reports show JBS co-owner Joesley Batista met with Trump shortly before the decision to discuss lowering Brazil’s tariffs, raising questions about policy influence and Brazil’s likely gain from the planned quota while the plan promises beef sold 25% below current prices.

Rachel Meyers Cheaper ground beef sounds nice until you realize it's propped up by a deal that seems to benefit one company's bottom line more than shoppers.

Copper climbs toward record; tariff threat looms — Aug 25, 2026Copper prices are approaching record highs as the prospect of U.S. import tariffs drives a wave of metal into U.S. warehouses, tightening supplies outside the United States and turning what should be a global surplus into a tighter or balanced market.

Marcus Bell Ricketts has been in DC a while now, curious what he's actually delivered for cattle producers besides talking points.

EU suspends Brazilian meat imports pending animal-health audit results — 2dThe EU has suspended imports of Brazilian meat and related products for failing to prove compliance with its antibiotic and safety standards, with audits underway to determine whether the ban will be extended or lifted.

Dana Whitfield Funny how the US waives tariffs for Brazilian beef while the EU pumps the brakes over antibiotics. Whose standards are we trusting here?
