A Missouri cattle farmer is facing financial ruin after the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) froze funding for key conservation programs, despite previously signed contracts with the government.

The freeze, part of the Trump administration’s sweeping federal review of spending programs, has left Skylar Holden, a first-generation farmer, scrambling to save his land.

Holden, who voted for President Donald Trump, had signed a $240,000 contract with the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) under the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) to improve water lines, fencing, and wells on his farm.

    Feel for him. Not really. But dude got wrapped up in hype of hating the people he hates, didn’t even realize he was included in exactly who he was cheering for hatred to come to.

      I don’t feel for him. I live in Missouri which is the state that keeps getting more and more red while shitting on everyone every step of the way. If he couldn’t figure that out he’s an idiot.

      If he was of voting age to remember the last time Trump was in power, he’s an idiot.

      He’s crying now, but the second things are working okay for him and he has a chance to hate again, he’ll start hating again.

      I have no use for these assholes anymore.
