🚨 FARM CREDIT CHAIRMAN FORCED FARMERS TO PAY THE BILL FOR AGENCY’S DEI INITIATIVES:

Unlike most federal agencies, the Farm Credit Administration (FCA) is funded by assessments; ultimately paid by farmers who have loans in the Farm Credit System. That critical distinction means the FCA could not be mandated to foot the bill for the Biden Administration’s DEI initiatives.

However, prior statements and financial records now reveal FCA Chairman Vincent Logan, Biden’s only appointment to the Farm Credit Board during his tenure, made the decision to force farmer borrowers to pay the bill to implement agency-wide DEI.

🇺🇸 || SAVE OUR FARMS 🌾 When selected for the position in 2022, Vincent Logan was touted by the Biden Administration as the first openly gay FCA Chairman and first Board Member and Chairman to be Native American.

Upon information and belief, Logan had no background in farming and had not worked previously with Farm Credit.

Logan is a lawyer and an investment advisor who previously worked with a division of the Federal Reserve.

🚨 BREAKING: Tennessee Rancher Dustin Kittle requests Trump DOJ to reevaluate its position in continuing to defend Biden’s violation of law —

In a letter sent on Friday by Kittle’s legal counsel Ashley Posey, the United States Attorney’s Office in Nashville was asked to reevaluate its position in continuing to defend Joe Biden, sued in his official capacity as the President from 2021-25, in a pending legal action filed by Kittle from March of 2024.

The legal claims against Biden hinge on his failure to nominate and appoint a full Farm Credit Board during his tenure as President of the United States.

In 2021, Kittle, who raises cattle, sheep, and Clydesdale horses on his farm in Tennessee, became a whistleblower and the key witness in a federal investigation involving fraud and abuse in the U.S. Farm Credit System. During the pendency of that investigation, Kittle and his family would be extorted by Farm Credit lawyers who threatened to foreclose on Kittle’s Tennessee farm and the Alabama family farm Kittle had grown up on that was owned by his mother, if Kittle refused to sign a legal release and swore to confidentiality as to his knowledge of System-wide fraud and abuse.

Kittle had never missed a payment in the history of his loans and his branch manager had put in writing, just days before his blowing the whistle, that his account was in “excellent standing”.

Kittle was ultimately forced to sell his family’s home to escape the extortion; as he refused a seven figure bribe that demanded he stay quiet about what he knew of the Farm Credit fraud.

In 2023, the Farm Credit Administration would be forced to admit that Kittle’s legal rights under multiple federal laws were violated; including the wrongful threat to foreclose on Kittle, as he had indeed never missed a payment. And with respect to the threats against Kittle’s mother, the Farm Credit Administration confirmed that she was not even a System borrower, and her property should have never even been subject to a Farm Credit lien.

But Farm Credit offered nothing more to Kittle than its written finding that federal laws were violated; leaving the matter instead in the hands of the U.S. Department of Justice; who would then defend President Biden as well as Farm Credit in the lawsuit Kittle filed against them both in 2024.

While Biden was President, it was no surprise the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville would provide defense; particularly given that the Office was led at the time by Henry Leventis, a former cohort of Special Prosecutor Jack Smith; who once supervised Leventis in the Nashville Office.

But in October, Leventis abruptly resigned from his post as the U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Tennessee; and since that time, Trump has not yet named a permanent replacement, with another Democrat, Robert McGuire, serving in the position of Acting U.S. Attorney.

Leaving the irony of all ironies that surely just needs to reach the right eyes to be corrected: But Donald Trump’s DOJ is currently defending Joe Biden.

Kittle’s letter was copied to McGuire as well as U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi (@AGPamBondi), in the hopes that someone from within the Trump Administration (@POTUS) will step up to reverse course in this case and to pursue a resolution with Kittle (that will not be conditioned on burying evidence of fraud against America’s farmers).

The actions taken against Kittle and his family have been ruthless, including verified death threats, but are illustrative of the lengths those in government will go to avoid accountability.

This is a case that should be a priority to resolve for the U.S. Department of Justice. It will signal a new approach to government-citizen relations and the protection of public whistleblowers.

A complete copy of Kittle’s correspondence and Attorney General Pam Bondi’s memorandum on eliminating the “Weaponization of the Federal Government” can be found in the Replies to follow. Re: Directives on Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government

I represent Plaintiff Dustin J. Kittle in the above-referenced matter, currently pending before the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee. This correspondence serves as a formal reminder of your Office’s obligations under the directives issued by President Donald Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi to end the weaponization of the Federal Government.

On February 5, 2024, Attorney General Bondi issued a Memorandum titled “Restoring the Integrity and Credibility of the Department of Justice.” A copy of the Memorandum is attached as Exhibit A. The Memorandum cites President Trump’s Executive Order 14147 (Jan. 20, 2025) establishing the Administration’s policy of Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government.

The directives issued by President Trump and Attorney General Bondi mandate a rigorous review of federal agency misconduct over the past four years – precisely the period encompassing the Farm Credit Administration’s (FCA) egregious actions against Mr. Kittle, as has been reported to your Office in the form of undisputed, documented evidence revealing violations of federal law.

There is no question that Mr. Kittle, who reported fraud to the FCA as early as August 2021, acted as a whistleblower and was thereafter retaliated against by the FCA, its system lender in Alabama Farm Credit, and retained private lawyers to facilitate a scheme of extortion against Mr. Kittle and his family designed to coerce him into signing a legal release with confidentiality (in order to halt a pending federal investigation into fraud and abuse in the Farm Credit System).

With respect to the facts, the Memorandum issued by Attorney General Bondi targets such abuses, including the …

Why would Farm Credit not just resolve this matter with Dustin Kittle, given the fact he has recorded calls and documents showing he was extorted as a whistleblower after he reported fraud in the U.S. Farm Credit System?

The Story of Snow Creek Bud Madigan —

If you follow, you know our current work in animal care is focused on Flopsy the Lamb.

Our work with Flopsy is an opportunity and is what we were meant to do, in the hopes of finding ways to make a better life for the future lambs born with her same condition.

And when you have hundreds of head of livestock, there will always be a Flopsy who comes along in need of extra help; but our plan on this research farm of sorts has always been to give those animals the very best in care, as I watched my father do for years, without any fanfare whatsoever.

And sometimes I wish it was the case now.

Frankly, it would be easier to take on this work without the attention of the outside world, as so many times in life you do not get the fairytale ending you hope for.

And that hurts — and in those moments, it would be easier if no one ever knew; but it would not accomplish our goal of doing all we can to improve the lives of livestock; as we have been able to share success stories along the way that bring new ideas to the table you can only advance with eyes and ears following the work that you do.

Bud, a Bull calf born in September of 2022, was one of our first projects, so to speak. I highlight his story through the video thread below, which shows the benefit of utilizing a technique called the Madigan Squeeze in “waking up” calves born with a condition referred to as “dummy calf” syndrome.

Not only did Bud wake up, he went on to have a Cinderella story in becoming our #1 Bull Calf for the 2022 Season; and he was retained as a Herd Sire in our program.

Bud’s first calves were born this past Fall, and those of you who have followed calves like Virgil, Forrest, Casper, Rosette, Chuck, Boo, Twain, Tiger, Cassius and Prissy, now know more of their story, as all were sired by Bud in his very first calf crop.

So enjoy look back on our work with Bud, and for those in the cattle business or for most any animals in general, check into the Madigan Squeeze as a technique for those calves or puppies or lambs or crias or kids or foals who may lack natural instincts at the time they are born — and yes, I do believe the technique should be studied for potential benefits with humans as well.

Thank you for following our work, our farm, and the animals who reside at Snow Creek;

We greatly appreciate you!

— DK

And a final note, you will see in this first video, just like with Flopsy, I knew we could get him right; I am the most stubborn, hard-headed person you will ever meet, but occasionally in life that serves you well.

🚨 DNA TESTING PROVES $66,000 BULL NOT WHO HE WAS CLAIMED TO BE:

Snow Creek Law Attorneys Dustin Kittle and Ashley Posey have been retained to represent two independent cattle breeders out of Virginia and North Carolina in a dispute involving what was the Highest Selling Bull in the history of the American Gelbvieh Cattle Breed, SLC Viper 7E.

At the 2018 National Gelbvieh Cattle Sale held in Denver, Colorado, Viper was on display with his dam, SLC Toasty 10C, who was also a featured Lot in the National Sale. Their appearance in Denver coincided with the National Western Stock Show, where they were heralded as the future of Purebred Gelbvieh genetics in America.

The Sale, sponsored by the American Gelbvieh Association (AGA), commanded record prices, with the High Selling Lot being the impressive Purebred Gelbvieh Herd Sire, Viper, at $66,000 and the Highest Selling Female being Toasty, the dam of Viper, who sold half-interest for $36,000.

Viper was purchased by Doug and Sue Hughes, the owners of Little Windy Hills Farm in Virginia. Toasty would be purchased by Little Windy Hills Farm in a partnership with Duane Strider, owner of C-Cross Cattle Company in North Carolina. Collectively, Viper and Toasty sold for $99,000.

The first signs of trouble arose more than a year later when the AGA informed Hughes and Strider they could not register their calves out of Toasty, citing she was missing a required DNA-test to confirm that her parentage was accurate. When that DNA-test was performed, the AGA advised that Toasty’s DNA did not match her listed Sire; and in short, neither Viper nor Toasty were who they were registered to be by the DNA evidence.

The central issue from a legal perspective would become this: The AGA sponsored and managed the National Sale and it was stated plainly in the terms and conditions of the Sale that “All cattle selling have been DNA parent verified … .”

The AGA endeavored to identify Toasty’s true sire (which was Viper’s true grandsire); but after a search they deemed to be exhaustive, the AGA issued a press release on May 31, 2022 stating that Toasty’s true sire could not be identified, her sire would be listed as “unknown” in the registry, and neither Viper nor Toasty could be registered or identified as being Purebred Gelbvieh cattle.

In the time period since, the AGA and its lawyers have refused to provide any recompense to the breeders harmed by its false advertising of Viper and Toasty in the 2018 National Sale; further, it was discovered that certain conflicts of interest existed within the leadership of the AGA. To put it straightforward, the AGA advertised that the Sale Lots had been DNA-tested, profited from the record sales of Viper and Toasty through its commissions from the Sale, disqualified those animals in the registry on the grounds of a lack of DNA-testing, and then informed the breeders it would do nothing to correct its acts and errors.

The full and true story of this matter has never been told to date — but it will be told in complete detail in the coming weeks and months, as the case proceeds to litigation in Federal Court.

Statement from Cattle Rancher and Agricultural Attorney Dustin Kittle of Snow Creek Law:

“A cattle breed association is no different than any enterprise in that truth and transparency must be at the heart of all they do or the trust of the membership and the consumers will be lost. Within the registered cattle market, there are family farms who save and invest in the most elite genetics they can afford in an effort to advance their respective programs forward and to create a product that others wish to buy. The farmers and ranchers cannot be left to languish due to errors made by an association; and that is certainly the case when the decision-makers within the association have competing interests.” “It’s in the Black and White” …

☀️🌾 HOW YOU CAN HELP SAVE OUR FARMS:

The reply below is a common one I have received in recent weeks as to what you can do to help support this effort to save our farms. And because of the hectic pace of our litigation in numerous cases and the obligations on the farm, I have often done a poor job in responding to that question.

So let me take a better shot at it here —

WHO:

I operate Snow Creek Ranch and Snow Creek Law. I have practiced for 18 years as a litigation attorney; mainly in employment, environmental, and agricultural law. I was raised on a farm and have spent my entire life working in or on behalf of agriculture.

WHAT:

In 2020, we purchased multiple agricultural properties in rural Tennessee; relocating our law firm from Birmingham/Nashville to the quiet and seclusion of the farm. Our mission was two fold: 1) Continue our work in raising and developing Registered livestock, including cattle, horses, and sheep, with an emphasis on research and advancement in animal care as well as to build-out a venue on-site (for events focused on youth and agriculture); and 2) To shift our law firm’s legal focus even further to representing more independent farmers and ranchers, seeing a void in capable representation.

In our venue build-out, we put the farm we owned up as collateral on a loan with Farm Credit with a construction plan that would continue with our last equity funds release in July 2021 — months before, an executive from Farm Credit visited our farm and had asked if we represented the Alabama Poultry Growers’ Association, which we did and had for approximately 10 years.

What we did not know was that Alabama Farm Credit, the lender assigned to our loan, had a lending portfolio made up of 1/3 plus poultry farmers; with more than 1,000 farms mainly situated in North Alabama.

By June 2021, Alabama Farm Credit curiously asked if we would turn over a list of our agricultural law clients; an ask they repeat two months later under the threat of default.

By July 2021, my branch manager called to say my account was frozen and she was locked out from processing our equity return; of over a million dollars. She would text me in the days to follow that an email from me requesting my loan file was read by the executive who visited my farm and they removed her from my account.

We had never missed a loan payment and held millions in equity on farms we had owned free and clear a year prior. But we never spoke to our lender again, as we were turned over to the biggest law firm in the State of Alabama.

We would be extorted for months by the lawyers of our federally-chartered lender. At the exact same time, the poultry farmer borrowers of Alabama Farm Credit were being sabotaged as well; having their funds held accounts holding deposits closed out, in a theft that may end up being $60+ million.

There were poultry farmers who lost their farms and were forced into turning over deeds in lieu of foreclosure; with those funds still not recovered to this day and defenses to the illegal taking being that the borrowers’ funds had been held in uninsured accounts.

Farm Credit eventually attempted to foreclose on me to up the pressure; when again, we were paid in full.

They did so because, for months, I had refused to sign a legal release of claims and swear to confidentiality as to what I knew on it all — with us later learning the plan was for the release to ensure I could never represent a Farm Credit borrower again.

I did not fold. Instead, I sold my family’s home, paid off our Farm Credit loan 20 years early to escape the extortion, and moved into the unfinished venue to live; where I continue to live today.

As there is no private right of action under the Farm Credit Act, the U.S. Farm Credit Administration was my only recourse; with letters and recorded calls and every piece of documented evidence you could want, the Government Sponsored Enterprise ignored me and watched me burn.

CONTINUED

🧵 1 of 4 We would ultimately become a part of the longest investigation in the history of the U.S. Farm Credit System; and on June 12, 2023, we received findings stating multiple federal laws had been violated in what was a botched attempt to extort us — but that because we had already paid off our loans (under clear duress), Farm Credit had no duty to act.

We would ultimately learn Farm Credit has not protected a farmer in 37 years.

So why did it happen?

Alabama Farm Credit had a a capital shortage with a $1 Billion Line of Credit that was more than 90% exhausted.

Me and the more than 1,000 Alabama poultry farmers have been the ones to pay the price; as we still are today.

The retaliation, to include death threats, has been incessant over the past three years, so it seems apparent this matter may dismantle the Farm Credit System, at least when it comes to how it will function going forward.

And the case threatened to expose that two United States Presidents had failed to abide by federal law in appointing the United States Farm Credit Board.

In 2015, President Barack Obama re-appointed a Board Member for a second term; despite federal law mandating Board Members were limited to serving a single term.

And Joe Biden, who I filed suit against in March, failed in appointing the Board positions at all; leaving me and others with no recourse from what is the only oversight mechanism over the federally-chartered farm credit lenders.

My suit is designed to force President Biden and Congress to evaluate what is going on currently within the U.S. Farm Credit System; such as the fact they are engaging in business dealings with foreign agents and the fact we have a foreign invasion on American farmland.

So to put it mildly, there is a lot at stake.

WHERE:

While fighting back against our own government, we have continued to operate the farm while representing the interests of hundreds of farm credit borrowers who similarly have been caught up in Farm Credit’s corruption.

While we are licensed to practice in the State and Federal Courts of Alabama and Tennessee, we have practiced nationwide via special admission and have handled proceedings everywhere from Possum Trot, AL to New York City.

Because we advise various farm and ranch groups across the country, we keep a national focus on the issues that impact America’s independent farmers.

We then take on certain representative cases which may create necessary changes in policies and precedent.

Those cases have included:

Representing more than 10,000 rural citizens against broadband internet providers who colluded with the USDA to obtain federal funding for services promised and never performed;

Representing a Registered cattle farm in Illinois cited by a breed association as the origination point to a defect in genetics that led to the testing and culling of defect carrier-cows across the United States; only for it to later be discovered the testing was all flawed;

A farmer who inherited property and later discovered that one of the world’s largest telecommunications providers modified FAA records, concealing that a cell tower had been built in the wrong location decades ago on his property;

A farmer whose Ford F250 truck failed electronically within weeks of its purchase new and Ford could not repair and offered only a $1,000 credit, with the end result being a win over Ford in arbitration that would reveal the issue extended to other Ford trucks as well;

Representing rural residents whose property bordered a waterway that was contaminated by a private corporate venture, leading to sickness and death for livestock and wildlife in the area.

And many many more I will discuss as we move forward on this Page —

Another player in the employee pipeline at Summit Carbon Solutions is past Iowa Governor, and former US Ambassador to China, Terry Branstad – someone China’s president, Xi Jinping, refers to as his “old friend”, with their relationship dating back to 1985 when Xi led a Chinese delegation to Iowa to learn about agricultural technologies.  And when VP Biden invited Xi to visit him and Obama in DC in February 2012, Xi’s next stop was to Iowa to visit his old friend Branstad in Iowa.
 
It would be the following year when Smithfield Foods – the largest pork producer in the US (founded in 1936 in Smithfield, Virginia – about 30 mins from where I grew up 🐖) was acquired by a Chinese company with backing from the Chinese government. The 2013 purchase of Smithfield marked China’s largest purchase of a US assets, at $7.1 billion.
 
The purchase of Smithfield meant 146,000 acres of US land, concentrated mostly in North Carolina, Missouri, Utah, Virginia, Colorado, and Oklahoma – states hosting Smithfield’s hog farms, processing plants, feed mills, etc. – was now owned by Chinese parties.
 
Their acquisition of more than 400 Smithfield-owned hog farms and an additional 2,000 independent farms gave China access to a well-established and integrated food system in the US where it could increase its access to quality pork, while circumventing US tariffs on feed grain or pork exports and offshoring the environmental impacts of feeding its country.
 
The US Government’s Committee on Foreign Investment, the federal government's interagency committee that reviews national security risks of foreign investments, \ approved the purchase in September 2013.
 
Just 3 years later, Smithfield bought Clougherty Packing from Hormel Foods Corp for $145 million, and in return acquired two processing facilities in California and three farms in Wyoming, California, and Arizona.
 
In the fall of 2016, Smithfield purchased grain elevators in Harpster and Morral, Ohio.
 
The Chinese acquisitions continued in 2017 with Smithfield’s purchase of Kansas City Sausage Co.

And in December 2022, a Chinese food manufacturer with ties to the Chinese government, Fufeng Group Ltd., acquired hundreds of acres of land near a US military installation in North Dakota, prompting a review by the CFIUS, who eventually determined it did not have jurisdiction over the transaction and would be taking no further action.

That land is located about 12 miles from the Grand Forks Air Force Base, which houses some of the US’s top intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities. The location of the land close to the base is particularly convenient for monitoring air traffic flows in and out of the base, among other security-related concerns.
 
Foreign investment in US agricultural land grew to over 40 million acres in 2022, an increase of 50 percent since 2017. Much of this increase was due to foreign-owned wind companies that obtained long-term leases to build wind turbines on agricultural land.
 
And with these purchases seemingly popping-up in strategic locations near sensitive military installations, the number of gaps in the US government's review of such foreign investment is absolutely terrifying.
 
Basically, we have no way of knowing the nature and extent of associated national security risks from the massive amounts of US agricultural land being lost to foreign interests, and here’s part of why:
 
While foreign investors in US agricultural land are supposed to self-report the transactions to the USDA within 90 days of an agricultural land transaction:
 
-       The USDA's reporting program was not designed as a national security program and does not collect all items of interest to the national security community such as the investor's parent companies or major shareholders.

-       The program is entirely self-reliant on foreign persons voluntarily reporting the purchase with no way of detecting undisclosed transactions.

-       The reporting requirements lack rules and transparency related to ownership, use, and change in use. It is unclear to what extent USDA conducts field assessments or tracks changes in land use or ownership after the initial paperwork is filed.

-       USDA's collection processes involve paper-based reporting that is compiled in a manual, error-prone process, and its data is not always accurate. Congress required USDA to create an online submission database but it has not done so.

-       There’s a lack of enforcement mechanisms in place regarding false reporting or no reporting at all, meaning, foreign firms may easily circumvent current reporting requirements and repurpose the purchased land with little concern of repercussions from USDA due to the lack of enforcement measures in place.

-       USDA does not share complete and timely data with CFIUS or other agencies.

Without the proper data, it is impossible to monitor or detect or even know the current threats to national security in place on our own soil.
 
And at the same time, our courts are shutting down attempts at the state level to protect US soil and farms. Just a few weeks ago, the Eleventh Circuit issued an injunction blocking Florida's bill restricting such foreign investment in real estate.

🚨 THE NEXT CHAPTER: “DALLAS PACKED HIS SUITCASE” —

Barack Obama, then a junior United States Senator from Illinois, announced his candidacy for President in February 2007.

Barack Obama never lacked for charisma, polish, or charm — but his Achilles’ heel, so it seemed, on the national stage, was how he related to those outside of the Cities.

But in the native South Dakotan Dallas Tonsager, Barack Obama found his ally.

🧵 1 of 4 || #SaveOurFarms 🇺🇸🌾 Tonsager had grown up on a dairy farm in rural South Dakota but was a bit of an anomaly, as he was, steadfastly, a die-hard Democrat. He had emerged on the national political scene in 1993, named as USDA Director for Rural Development for his home-state of South Dakota by President Bill Clinton.

But it was a Republican President, George W. Bush, who brought Mr. Tonsager to Washington; as an appointee to the U.S. Farm Credit Board in the year 2004.

While that may sound odd, it is a part of the design of checks and balances within the U.S. Farm Credit System, that was put in place more than a century ago to STOP the wrongful taking of family farms that was occurring, at the time, within the private banking and lending industry.

Farm Credit’s regulations state that the sitting U.S. President must appoint a three-member Farm Credit Board to manage and direct the Farm Credit System, with these specific protections:

1.The Board cannot be monopolized by the same political party (with Bush appointing Tonsager to create the requisite political balance on the Board);

2.The Board Members must serve in a fixed six-year term;

3.The Board Members may not succeed themselves, to effectively create one of the only true American Government systems with term limits; and

4.The President’s appointments must be confirmed by the United States Senate.

🚨🇺🇸 — AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM TENNESSEE RANCHER + AG ATTORNEY DUSTIN KITTLE ON IMMEDIATE THREATS TO OUR NATIONAL SECURITY WHICH HAVE BEEN HIDDEN FROM THE AMERICAN PUBLIC:

The U.S. Farm Credit System has been hijacked, sabotaged, and, based upon our review of the documented evidence, appears to be under the direction, control, or influence of foreign agents.

While most know me as the rancher who brought suit against President Biden due to a blatant failure to perform his Constitutional duties in appointing a U.S. Farm Credit Oversight Board, I have not made known until now that this effort is part of a broader case that first began in 2014.

It was then I investigated, discovered, and exposed a corruption within the United States Department of Agriculture that would later be linked to a “Red Dawn” event that was allowed to occur on American soil from 2017 until 2022.

What was that “Red Dawn” event?

Over a five year period immediately following the Presidency of Barack Obama and transitioning into the Presidency of Joe Biden, there was an all-out assault launched to capture American farmland and reroute it to foreign interests; to include the Communist Government of China.

What we now know is the farmland was not selected randomly and instead was acquired to border specific, strategic military sites that have now compromised our national security; and in the same process, irreparable harm was inflicted to our national food supply chain; with family farms converted to a consolidated scheme in favor of foreign-owned corporate agriculture.

Since the election of President Obama in 2008, we have lost more farms to foreign interests than at any point in American history; further, the evidence will show that the U.S. Farm Credit Board was manipulated by both Barack Obama and Joe Biden (or his controlling agent) — to allow the influx of foreign “investors” to continue.

But perhaps of greater importance, the evidence we have now obtained shows the Farm Credit System became a pawn in the scheme to not only influence policy; but also our ELECTIONS.

This story cannot and should not be told in a single Post — and over the next 24 days, we will reveal every piece of evidence in this fraud. But lest they think I am bluffing, just follow this —

In 2007, a Presidential appointed and Senate confirmed Board Member of the United States Farm Credit System broke rank (following his appointment by President George W. Bush) to form Rural Americans for Obama. That Official would ultimately play a key role, as he both was chair of Obama’s rural campaign committee and would become a member of the transition team.

Although that Farm Credit Board Member was reassigned by President Barack Obama to the USDA in 2009, it would be two weeks after the election of Donald Trump as President in 2016 that Barack Obama would name the Official in question CHAIRMAN of the Farm Credit System.

The selection occurred between the November election of Trump and his swearing in as the President; in an unprecedented move.

Tomorrow, you will be introduced to that individual in the first of 24 articles between now and July 4th to outline every player in this fraudulent, treasonous scheme.

But I leave you with this; what upset the apple cart to get us to here?

That Official died, unexpectedly, in 2019; but not before he put his Executive Assistant and Legal Advisor in place as the “independent” Inspector General of the U.S. Farm Credit System —

— who was able to make an election-interfering Hatch Act violation, within the United States Farm Credit System, disappear as to the election between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

Oh, and don’t bother calling the Chairman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, Debbie Stabenow (Michigan - Democrat), for help — the SON of that Official was hired by her to become the Special Legal Counsel to her and to the Senate Agriculture Committee.

Debbie, you let me know when I have your attention. I am ready to testify. I wish it was not the case but we need your help as we take this fight to five law firms, with that including regional, national and even international law firms — as well as an international PR Crisis Firm which has been hired with the farmer borrowers’ money to protect those who committed and are continuing to commit wrongdoing within the USDA, the U.S. Farm Credit System, and we believe at this time, the Democratic Party (going into this election).

We launched a #SaveOurFarms 🇺🇸🌾 campaign in recent weeks through our non-profit entity to assist in funding a Constitutional challenge to the U.S. Farm Credit Act, in its allowance, on its face and/or as applied, to violate due process and the First Amendment right to free speech.

What we could not reveal then was this was a parallel effort to a Federal RICO case we have been building as to a conspiracy between the Obama Administration and the Biden Administration with respect to the sabotage of the Farm Credit System.

After refusing to accept a $1.2 million bribe in January of this year, I received a death threat almost immediately; and since that time we have been targeted with the disabling of our Meta social media accounts and the disabling of iMessage services to our phones (which is more readily shielded from a subpoena’s reach).

Our farm was also reported for investigation to PETA, who has refused to close that investigation. While we will assume nothing, that report was made contemporaneously to multiple animals on our farm developing neurological issues; with some succumbing to death and now under investigation through necropsy.

The #1 thing you can do for us is to find whatever whistle you have, no matter its size or tone, and blow that whistle as loud as you can, until someone either steps in or we arrest the entire Senate Ag Committee for treason; and to include both parties.

This should have never been allowed to happen and it should never have been allowed to continue — but this train is off the tracks and they are not touching their brake until we stop them or it crashes.

And while times right now are incredibly difficult I know, I ask you to consider standing alongside us and fighting through the #SaveOurFarms campaign, which may just be a needed vessel in saving more than just our farms in exposing, with evidence and detail, just one of the many frauds that has been perpetuated against us all.

This really is not about politics or parties. It comes down to what is right and wrong.

Anyone with a conscience and common sense understands that a government sponsored enterprise like the U.S. Farm Credit System should have never been allowed to take our farmland and divert it to foreign interests — so don’t think the border crisis is the only “Red Dawn” event that is currently going ongoing — as these times are so dark you cannot see the light in this until someone does what we have done in risking and losing most all we have ever worked for in trying to stop them.

I owe such a debt of gratitude to those who have helped spur us on this, particularly in recent months here on X. The removal of my FB account after the lawsuit was filed against President Biden was a turning point — I’ll forever be thankful to @elonmusk for providing this platform, which allowed us to reach so many more; including those on the “inside” who said enough is enough.

The next article posts at 1 pm central tomorrow — thank you all,

🇺🇸🧵 A FARM CREDIT MEGA-THREAD WITH AG ATTORNEY ASHLEY MEADE POSEY, ESQ.:

Over the next few hours, I will be taking over DK’s account for this thread 🧵 on my Breakdown of the Motion to Dismiss filed this week by @POTUS in the U.S. Farm Credit Case👩🏻‍⚖️

A few ground rules before we begin:

+ Just keep in mind that, unfortunately, I am not as clever or as good of a writer as Dustin, but you can follow me at @AshleyPosey22

+ I grew up in a small coastal town in the Chesapeake Bay area of Virginia. I left to attend college at the University of Alabama (Roll Tide), where I earned my degree in business with an emphasis in consulting and entrepreneurship before attending law school. My first job out of law school was at Dustin’s firm, and when I worked on my first case involving agriculture (a defective cattle genetic testing case), I fell in love with being around and working with livestock. I’d never been around agriculture or livestock until about 5 years ago, but it quickly became my passion

+ I am licensed to practice in the state courts of Alabama and Tennessee. I’m also licensed to practice in the federal courts for the Middle and Northern Districts of Alabama, as well as the Middle District of Tennessee

+ I’m managing the #SavesOurFarms campaign and will be trying to post as many updates as I can as we work on the cases, but we are already so grateful and encouraged that we are already at 1% of our lofty goal less than 24 hrs after launching +

givesendgo.com/SaveOurFarms Now, for my thoughts on @POTUS’s arguments in his Motion to Dismiss:

President Biden is asking the court to dismiss Dustin’s case against him or transfer it to the federal court in the Northern District of Alabama - where Dustin was just sued by Alabama Farm Credit for trying to call a meeting of the stockholders.

I didn’t quite expect to see that argument. But, we anticipated the other arguments from the get-go, and that’s why the Complaint had to be 65 pages long. We had to preemptively show why this is the exception to the general rule that virtually all cases against a sitting President are wildly unsuccessful for multiple reasons - most of which are being argued, albeit unsuccessfully (in our opinion), by Biden here.

Here’s 👇🏻 the breakdown of what his arguments are, and what our responses (in bold) will be:

🧵 — 2 — #SaveOurFarms

🇺🇸 GOD #SaveOurFarms — AMERICA’S FARMERS AND RANCHERS VS. PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN:

I am a Rancher who holds a law degree.

In 2021, I contacted the U.S. Farm Credit Administration to report a fraud. That fraud was being perpetrated against both me and my agricultural law clients, specifically family farms who had loans with Alabama Farm Credit.

The Alabama branch of the Farm Credit System was in trouble; as I suspect other farm credit lenders may be right now as well. And I guess the truth is they must have needed to take out a loan themselves; just to keep it all afloat.

So given that there were Tens of Millions of Dollars being held in the accounts of Alabama’s poultry farmers, as part of an unethical — if not illegal — condition to their loans, those farmers became an easy target in the lender seizing the farmers’ funds: or at least an easy target when the Outside Counsel for the Alabama Poultry Growers’ Association, (i.e., me, myself, and I) was actively being extorted by that SAME lender.

🧵 — 1 — #SaveOurFarms 🇺🇸🌾 I lost all communication with my farm credit lender, as my own loan account with Alabama Farm Credit was turned over to a private lawyer.

And we held him off for about 100 days — until they finally said the hell with us and sent a letter placing our loans in distress despite the fact we had never missed a single loan payment. And in addition to having our loans placed in distress, the letter said they could foreclose on us in as soon as 45 days, at their sole discretion.

But in an act that should send all of them to an ever-burning Hell, they sent a letter to my widow mother and told her they would foreclose on her and the adult daughter she provides life care for.

How has this all impacted her since then?

She’s had stress-induced sepsis, a heart attack, had to learn to walk again, and in September, she was diagnosed with cancer; which is why I began making this all public last year and when I asked Farm Credit earlier this year to make this all right with our family, after the three years of absolute Hell that they have put us through.

🧵 — 2 — #SaveOurFarms 🇺🇸🌾

🚨🧵 FARM CREDIT’S FOREIGN-FIASCO EXPOSED — “JUST WHAT IN THE HELL HAS BEEN GOING ON HERE?!”:

This investigative report, with the article linked below, was ignored two years ago as far as anyone taking action in response.

But we now know the last piece to that puzzle in how we are losing family farms and how it seems our Government was complicit all along in this fraud — and it’s because they were and they still are:

The Farm Credit Administration, a federal government sponsored enterprise, has manipulated the U.S. Farm Credit System that was established over a century ago to save American farms — to do so, they’ve used strategic campaign funding initiatives, primarily through the House and Senate Ag Committees, so those representatives look the other way while Farm Credit is allowed to lend on farmland to foreign investors.

American farmers sabotaged by their own government — through the many layers of corruption at the top of Farm Credit — and by the Senators and Representatives who have been bribed by special interests to allow an ongoing fraud to be perpetuated.

All this time Congress presumed no one cared about those farmers anyway — but the real danger they have let in far exceeds a singular issue; as the culmination of it all has resulted in a manipulated food supply and food pricing in this country, not to mention the very real potential our national security interests have been compromised.

Traitors — the whole lot of them.

🧵 1 of 6waff.com/2022/01/24/sec… THE FARM CREDIT TIMELINE:

2017 — The Inspector General position was reshaped at Farm Credit from an independent Officer with oversight of the System to protect farmer borrowers to a position that was given to a legal advisor and executive assistant who came from within the System itself.

Wendy Laguarda was named as the Inspector General by the Farm Credit Board in 2017; since that time, there is no record of a farmer having obtained relief through the System when reporting abuses by their lender. *

2019 — Donald Trump nominates private banker Rodney K. Brown to serve on the Farm Credit Board as an outsider to the “swamp” that had been allowed to persist for far too long.

Brown’s nomination was then leaked by a high-level official within Farm Credit; with the Farm Credit Council and the Farm Bureau then teaming to lobby the Senate Ag Committee to keep Brown from being appointed to the Board.

2020 — The Senate returns to Donald Trump the nomination of Brown, saying it was unable to hold his confirmation hearing in 2019; despite the fact Board Member Dallas Tonsager had passed away, leaving just two Members to serve, with one in an expired term.

The Trump team tells Congress that it must provide Rodney K. Brown his Senate Confirmation Hearing and then renominates Brown to the Board.

2021 — On January 3, 2021, the Senate again returns Brown’s nomination to Donald Trump, citing it was still unable to hold Brown’s Senate Confirmation Hearing over the duration of 2020.

President Trump’s nomination passes to President Joe Biden; who despite the fact the three-member panel was down to one legitimate member (and only two living members period) did not make a nomination to the Farm Credit Board.

2022 — With the last remaining Board Member’s term scheduled to expire, the Biden Administration finally makes its first nomination, Vincent Logan; with Logan immediately receiving a Senate Confirmation Hearing and promoted to the position of Chairman. Logan, the first gay Chairman of Farm Credit, has brought in an agenda focused on DEI and climate-focused agriculture since taking office in or about October 2022.

2023 — The Biden Administration fails to make any additional nominations to the Farm Credit Board; which had but one legitimate Member serving, that being Logan, Biden’s 2022 appointee.

Farm Credit argues it indeed may conduct business and function; despite the two other members of the Board continuing to serve in expired terms for a position with 6-year term limits.

One of those members is Jeffery Hall, a former Farm Bureau officer and friend and staffer to Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. McConnell has served on the Senate Ag Committee since the first farm credit crisis in the 1980s.

Hall’s term expired in the year 2018; but he has continued to serve, even presiding now over the Farm Credit Insurance Fund that backs the debt of the Farm Credit System. As one would expect given the position has strict term limits, it was recently reported by Congressional Research Services that Hall is the longest serving Farm Credit Board Member in United States history.

The counterpart to Hall is Glen Smith, whose term expired in 2022. Smith continues to serve despite information we released in recent days showing he was subject to prior disciplinary action by the State of Iowa’s Real Estate Commission and was fined for the mismanagement of Trust Funds.

March 2024 — Tennessee Rancher and Ag Attorney Dustin Kittle files suit against President Biden requesting the federal court issue a writ of mandamus as to the President; forcing him to nominate and appoint a fully functional three-member Farm Credit Board, pursuant to the mandate of federal law.

May 2024 — Kittle reveals the Farm Credit System was sabotaged from within following Laguarda’s designation as Inspector General in 2017. *

* The USDA released a Report in 2024 noting the spike in foreign farmland investments began in 2017.

🚨 FARM CREDIT MEGA-THREAD — RED DAWN:

The lens with which I view the U.S. Farm Credit matter has changed so much since 2021; but to be fair, the lens within which I view this world has changed considerably since 2014, which is when my dad lost his life at the age of 55.

It was one of those moments where you realize that nothing in this world will ever be the same. And it hasn’t — despite the fact I have continued to build his legacy and my own in agriculture.

But for all of the things we have accomplished on the farm since he left us, my dad would likely be most proud of this: The fight we have shown since 2021 to do the right thing, no matter the threat or the consequence. And in that, I hope this message finds the people to make this right.

A shortcoming I had with my dad was he tried to tell me I needed to watch a movie from 1984 — and it wasn’t that he thought the movie was some cinematic masterpiece; but he felt there was a message in the movie, and he was serious in saying I needed to watch it to see it for myself.

The movie was Red Dawn.

As a trivia point, it was the first “PG-13” movie.

And while it did not receive critical fanfare, it was a box office success; and a quick google search today shows it’s still at the forefront, even as a fictional account, as to whether it could ever be possible for a foreign entity to take on the U.S. from right here on our own American soil.

I remember telling my dad that there is no way a foreign entity could ever get a foothold here as a serious threat, as we would be ready for them.

My dad’s retort to that position was this: What do you do if they are already here?

And as we move forward in the U.S. Farm Credit Case and as we learn more each day in putting the pieces of all of this together, I can’t help but wonder whether there is a reason I needed to hear that question from him then; on a movie I dismissed as being unrealistic just 10 years ago.

The U.S. Farm Credit Case has opened my eyes — it has expanded the thoughts of what I once thought were possible — it has let me know that there may be more motives in taking American farmland than the ones that I first perceived.

Farm Credit was hijacked years ago — and for three years now, I have had my property and my life threatened because I knew too much in it all.

American farmers and ranchers have long been abused by the U.S. Farm Credit System. In the 1980s, farms were practically taken at gunpoint by a System that had no fear of repercussions.

But the truth is, even after the U.S. Farm Credit Administration pleaded, with Congress and the American public, that nothing like that would ever be allowed to happen again — it was less than five years before Farm Credit went to court and got a judge to strip the farmers’ right to sue.

Since then, Farm Credit has continued to assault American family farms — but now it is done by aggressive law firms, who take on the farmers directly; and keep down the noise by demanding the farmers to sign releases of liability and to swear to confidentiality so the story is never told.

Do you know what is worse for a farmer than losing their generational family farm? Losing it, telling someone why, and being sued by Farm Credit for blowing the whistle on this fraud.

My lender, Alabama Farm Credit, fought us, unsuccessfully I might add, with five law firms — and those law firms have come from other lenders across the System.

And I’ve said all along, what could they be hiding to make my life and my family’s life a living hell, for going on three years now — but I feel like we are as close as we have ever been to the “WHY”.

At the conclusion of this thread, my hope is you are prompted to speak up on this matter. There is sabotage and nefarious activity afoot within the U.S. Farm Credit System — innocent farmers and ranchers are having their livelihoods taken away, without due process and without free speech; and it’s past time we take a look at why.

🧵— 1 of 8 What is the Farm Credit System anyway?

The Farm Credit System was created in 1916 by Congress as a cooperative made up of local associations and regional banks. A couple of decades later, the Farm Credit Administration was established with the intent of providing independent, regulatory oversight of the System.

In our recent reports, we have made clear that the independence has left the building; and now, farmers have been deserted by their regulator and the only recourse they have to stop abuse.

This has happened in part due to consolidation, which is also what has constrained American agriculture in so many ways.

Early in the 20th century, Farm Credit was just one of many varied agricultural lenders; but over time, the System exerted control to establish a de facto monopoly in available credit to farmers.

In the 1960s, Farm Credit held less than 20 percent of the country’s farm debt; today, that numbers has more than double to 46 percent.

Farm Credit is now a lending behemoth; and it got there in large part by an ever-expanding scope when it comes to who it considers to be a “farmer” or “rancher” eligible for a “farm” loan.

That scope in recent years has been stretched in order to make a $750 Million loan to Verizon; but that’s not all, Farm Credit has also financed the biggest threat to farmer borrowers, corporate agricultural giants like Tyson Foods have been provided loans; some reaching a Billion Dollars.

When you look at Farm Credit’s near $400 Billion loan portfolio across the country, I’ll bet you would be surprised by the fact that those $250,000 or less “family farm loans” make up less than 10% of the loan dollars in the System.

Or how about this statistic — more than half of Farm Credit’s finite funding dollars go to loans of $5 Million or more; with approximately 40% of their loans now exceeding $25 Million Dollars.

How do they get away with it? ZERO OVERSIGHT.

The Farm Credit Council, and lobbying partners like the Farm Bureau, have so much control over Congress that they staged a political blockade of President Donald Trump’s 2019 and 2020 nominations to the three-person Farm Credit Board; which supervises the entire System.

Farm Credit, a Government Sponsored Enterprise, who once pleaded with Congress in the 1980s not to close its doors for abusing the farmers and ranchers in this country, in just a few decades time, became more powerful than the United States President — who watched his nominee to the Board, long-time and respected private banker Rodney K. Brown, thwarted from ever receiving a Confirmation Hearing by the Senate Agriculture Committee — as meanwhile the Farm Credit Council and the Farm Bureau filled the campaign coffers of those Senators.

What in the 1980s was a 400-association System of independent lenders is now just a 50-association System — they got leaner, they got meaner, and they lawyered up to the hilt.

🚨🧵 THE EXTORTION THREAD: SEPARATING THE FAMILY FROM THE FARM —

The ending of the video posted this morning shows a logo for Columbia Spring.

Columbia Spring was our agricultural venture set to launch in the Fall of 2021; by the time it was scheduled to launch, our credit transactions had been frozen for months and we could not communicate with anyone at our lender.

We were told the only way to get out of it was to sign a release of claims in favor of the Officers, Directors, and Lawyers of our farm credit lender; with confidentiality so that no one ever knew what had occurred.

For 100 days, we said no we will not sign.

Then, I captured the Farm Credit attorney in a recorded call; with him acknowledging we had never missed a loan payment — and that all of this was happening because of the violations of law we knew they had committed and were continuing to commit against helpless farmer borrowers.

I went so far to try to stop their extortion that I told them I valued my own claims, at that point, for the hell they had put me and my family through, at $10 Million Dollars —

— I thought surely, by my making that clear, they would not continue to extort someone by obstructing their ability to obtain due process or the ability to even have loans serviced under the rights afforded to me by law, as guaranteed by the U.S. Farm Credit Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act.

🧵 1 — of — 5 I would report that information directly to the U.S. Farm Credit Administration — as the lender’s lawyer had just been caught red-handed, on a recorded call, admitting this was all being done because they had to get that release signed OR a day like the last few days would ultimately come.

That same night, my loans in the United States Farm Credit System were placed in distress — the first step to foreclosure in the U.S. Farm Credit System. They would also write me that, within 45 days, they could initiate foreclosure on my farm in the State of Tennessee — and on my mother’s farm in the State of Alabama.

No loan payments missed. Documented correspondence from 10 days before the extortion by my branch manager — who by the way knew what was coming somehow — making clear my account was in “excellent standing” and that Farm Credit looked forward to meeting my credit needs.

Soon after, she would text me that she had been removed from my account. That is when this all began — late July 2021.

🧵 2 — of — 5

🧵🚨 Farm Credit Fraud from A to B to C:

— Exhibit A —

Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell has served on the Senate Ag Committee for 40 years; and consider the trajectory of American agriculture since 1984.

As a general rule, the U.S. Farm Credit Administration only reports to the House and Senate Ag Committees, who have played quite a role in this; as approval of the President’s nominees to the U.S. Farm Credit Board must ultimately be confirmed by the Senate Ag Committee.

Yet somehow, even as we speak now, there is only one member of the three-person Farm Credit Board who is currently serving in a legitimate term; that being President Biden’s appointee, FCA Chairman Vincent Logan.

Prior to our filing a Writ of Mandamus in March to require President Biden to nominate a full Farm Credit Board, there had not been a full panel serving in their legitimate terms since 2019.

But what we now know is the Senate Ag Committee refused to allow President Trump’s 2019 and 2020 nominees to the Farm Credit Board to have so much as a confirmation hearing.

They stalled for two years and returned Trump’s nominee back to him on January 3, 2021; passing that nomination to President Biden, who ultimately named Logan to the FCA Board in 2022, still leaving two open seats at the time.

Logan would be confirmed to the U.S. Farm Credit Board, with no opposition, almost immediately — quite the contrast to Brown’s treatment in 2019-20.

And that is where this gets interesting …

#SaveOurFarms You can read more fully about this in our 190+ page Complaint on the Writ of Mandamus requesting a Federal Court to require President Biden to make the two (2) remaining appointments to the U.S. Farm Credit Board — but again, keep in mind no one will be fully confirmed to the Farm Credit Board without receiving Senate confirmation; from the Ag Committee where Senator Mitch McConnell has sat for 40 years.

Read the Complaint here:



— Exhibit B —

And that brings us to what the law says on the matter; as quite frankly, it’s been abused by those who know better.

We all know how Mitch McConnell feels about term limits; but on this, he should have had no say whatsoever, as in their infinite wisdom, Farm Credit was set up for the farmers’ benefit. A significant aspect of the benefit was in preventing farmers and ranchers from being abused by lenders of agricultural credit.

And so corruption did not creep in to this purported Farm Credit cooperative, the law requires TERM LIMITS for every Farm Credit Board Member who serves.

Read the cited statute below — if you are an attorney or a layperson, I do not think anyone would dispute the fact a six-year term limit was established for every Farm Credit Board member.

There is but one even speck of gray in a sea of black and white, that being that some grace is given to the transition process, allowing a Board Member to remain in office until their successor has been confirmed and qualified.

And let’s say we are all feeling generous this afternoon, as we hate to think that our own government might be a part of sabotaging us all from within —

So with that said, I would go so far as to give a full year’s grace and say, while I would want to know the reasons why, it is possible that, even with term limits in place, a situation might arise, once in a generation or so, where maybe it could take as long as twelve months even to get that next Board Member situated and into their office serving —

Now a Note as to the Next Slide:

This is where if you have high blood pressure, and you are passionate about deliberate fraud engaged in against American citizens, perhaps reach out to your doctor or be sure your medication has been taken —because here …linktr.ee/dustinkittle
