Joni got an earful

Iowans gave Senator Joni Ernst an earful of concerns, Wednesday, as the ag sector continues to struggle with tariffs.

At a roundtable in Williamsburg, the Republican listened as business owners and ag leaders explained personal struggles with the tariffs.

Kinze Manufacturing-- a maker of farm machinery-- said steel tariffs cost them a "seven-figure" sum in the last year.

Richard Dix, the company's senior supply chain director, said that was a lot of money to the smaller-sized manufacturer.

And if you believe that Joni's gonna take the farmers concerns back to fuck head, I've got a bunch of bridges and swampland to sell.
