USDA recalls 30k pounds of Argentine beef sold in Texas and Florida (cbsaustin.com)

That's only about 50 cows. This isn't a big recall.

Total slaughter of cows in Texas is about 1.8 million head per year.

can this administration just do a single thing that isn't evil and self serving? it bogles my mind that every single thing they do is just awful.

What makes you think this is “evil and self-serving”? It affects a relatively small quantity of specific products from a specific supplier with specific use-by dates.

In any case, this is Argentinian beef, not Canadian or something. Isn’t the US administration pretty friendly with the right-wing populist Argentinian government?

Honestly more than half of this sort of mess is incompetence rather than malice. But... yeah, sigh. Our grandkids just aren't going to believe what it was like.

Which interpretation of your comment do you think makes you look better: that you're pretending not to understand the point being made, or that you truly don't understand the point being made?

"Since Trump’s announcement, Detwiler said, online discussion has fueled confusion about what is happening with beef imports and the recall."

Articles like this one aren't exactly helping either.

Meanwhile, the administration is planning to import 661,000,000 lbs of beef to try to reduce record high prices but refuses to say where it will come from.
