I signed an Executive Order today creating the Oklahoma Beef Industry Advisory Council in preparation of President Trump's announcement to increase imported beef that must be sold below U.S. market rates. I am placing our wonderful Secretary of Agriculture, Blayne Arthur, as the Chair of the Council, which will... show more

![One of my exchanges with Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins -- on 🥩 imports: Me: I haven't been able to find an ag group or a Republican lawmaker who is supporting the president's announcement about importing beef to lower prices. Why do this in the face of very widespread criticism? Secretary Brooke Rollins: "The president made the decision that, for a short 90 days, there's a lot of ground beef -- this is just ground beef -- there's a lot of ground beef that's sitting in other countries that would potentially help serve Americans, especially lower-income Americans who really lean into -- 'lean into' -- the lean ground beef. And so this is a very short-term fix from the president's perspective, that he believed necessary to get lower cost beef onto American plates." Me: Where is the U.S. importing this beef from? Secretary Brooke Rollins: "I will be very transparent in that is over at [the office of] U.S. Trade Rep. I am actually not part of any of those conversations, so I am not sure what that looks like. I think we'll know very soon."](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2092294683967758435/amplify_video_thumb/2092292200528818176/img/yd6ynNGGo91npQKU.jpg)
![Undercover at CattleCon: Ranchers & Insiders Expose How Tyson, JBS, Cargill, & National Beef Secretly Control America's Beef Market. The OMG team did a deep dive, going undercover at CattleCon 2026 in Nashville, Tennessee. We spoke with beef industry insiders and ranchers about the top four companies, Tyson, JBS, Cargill, and National Beef, which dominate U.S. beef processing. These four companies process the majority of U.S. beef. Over time, dozens of smaller processors merged into four major companies now known as the “Big Four.” “They [Big Four] are buying like all the companies in the United States… so they don’t have competition.” “They [Big Four] can knock you out of this industry in two seconds.” “They [Big Four] closed all the markets — all the markets are theirs in Brazil and now in the U.S.” In November 2025, President Trump tweeted that cattle prices were falling while boxed beef prices kept rising, calling it “fishy.” With the Department of Justice urging action over possible price manipulation by major meatpackers, we decided to investigate and do something about it. Our team spoke directly with ranchers and industry partners, documenting firsthand how the “Big Four” dominate the market and impact pricing. As beef prices climb, many cattle producers say they have little influence over the prices they receive, raising questions about how costs are set from the ranch to the store shelf. The Department of Justice has looked into whether the biggest beef companies have too much control over the industry and whether they worked together to raise prices. The “Big Four” companies deny any wrongdoing, insisting that prices are driven solely by supply and demand. Tyson, JBS, Cargill, and National Beef control most of the U.S. beef industry, raising serious questions about who really sets the price. So when you see higher prices at the grocery store, it’s worth asking why. This may explain why your steak keeps costing more.
