WASHINGTON, DC — Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins says they’re cracking down on foreign deals for the second phase of the National Farm Security Action Plan.
“Defending agricultural research and innovation. No more sweetheart deals and secret pacts with countries that do not have our best interest in mind” Rollins said on Tuesday in Washington, DC.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth wants to know who is buying land around defense bases.
“As someone who’s charged with leading the Defense Department, I want to know who owns the land around our bases, and getting an understanding of why foreign entities, foreign companies, foreign individuals might be buying up land around those bases.”
He says land owned by foreign nationals is a potential threat to national security.
