(WND)—The administration of Joe Biden is being skewered by a federal watchdog for failing to track the foreign ownership of U.S. farmlands, from which the nation’s population is fed.
In fact, a new report said Biden doesn’t even appear to have plans to monitor those developments that are significant to the nation’s security.
A report from Fox News bluntly warns Biden “doesn’t appear to have a plan to begin” monitoring that issue.
It reports that a document assembled by the Government Accountability Office revealed the Department of Agriculture has failed to share timely information about what foreigners are buying what land, even though that’s required under the 1978 Agricultural Foreign Investment Disclosure Act.
“Sharing current data could help increase visibility into potential national security risks related to foreign investments in U.S. agricultural land,” explained the GAO. “USDA implements AFIDA across field offices and headquarters, but its processes to collect, track, and report key information are flawed.”
Some details, in fact, are collected on “paper forms,” but there’s no agenda for any database.
The most recent details out are from 2021, the report said.
“This report confirms one of our worst fears: that not only is the USDA unable to answer the question of who owns what land and where, but that there is no plan by the department to internally reverse this dangerous flaw that affects our supply chain and economy,” said Rep. Dan Newshouse, R-Wash., the head of the Congressional Western Caucus.
“Food security is national security, and we cannot allow foreign adversaries to influence our food supply while we stick our heads in the sand,” he warned.
Recent purchases of American land by foreign corporations have raised alarms among Republicans because of the threat an enemy could be “establishing a stranglehold” on American food and energy resources.
Members of Congress specifically have expressed alarm at China’s purchases, some of which have been near military installations.

What Would You Do If Pharmacies Couldn’t Provide You With Crucial Medications or Antibiotics?
The medication supply chain from China and India is more fragile than ever since Covid. The US is not equipped to handle our pharmaceutical needs. We’ve already seen shortages with antibiotics and other medications in recent months and pharmaceutical challenges are becoming more frequent today.
Our partners at Jase Medical offer a simple solution for Americans to be prepared in case things go south. Their “Jase Case” gives Americans emergency antibiotics they can store away while their “Jase Daily” offers a wide array of prescription drugs to treat the ailments most common to Americans.
They do this through a process that embraces medical freedom. Their secure online form allows board-certified physicians to prescribe the needed drugs. They are then delivered directly to the customer from their pharmacy network. The physicians are available to answer treatment related questions.
PEOPLE, joeyScum gets 10%.
What is it about that YOU DON’T GET?
We used to HANG TRAITORS.
Xi and Gates are our new Farmer Brown’s. They will own all our farm land and grow all our produce – with a good bit of life changing mRNA in it. We’ll be slithering around like snakes soon.
Slithering snakes or Xi–males, either are UNACCEPTABLE???
If there is no datas over the Chinese buying of US-FarmLand, they will do it. Biden sells out the ground USA is feeded. Stop Biden – he is a danger for America.
The future appears DIM; SUM it up for ya: the upper echelon problem is the CCP takeover of the BIDEN—HARRIS regime!?
(DIM SUM — — get it?!?!)
Waaaay back in 1973 a finance professor in academia posed the question: who owns the major banks?
Nobody knows — it’s a secret!
It is unbelievable that a government would allow foreign countries to own land and take resources out of their own country. What other countries allow this? Except for the corrupt African ones who are run by evil sick people who were financed by the crooked corporations to achieve power and sell out their own people.
Democrats are prepared to vote for Biden again if need be in order to see to it that America as we know it is destroyed.
