Today, President Donald J. Trump announced the launch of the America First Seafood Strategy (PDF, 8.5 MB) and several actions the Trump Administration is taking to support the American seafood industry. Among these actions is the announcement that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is making at least $5 billion available in loans through the Strengthening Processing for U.S. Ranchers (SPUR) Guaranteed Loan Program to expand, improve, and diversify the processing capacity of American meat, poultry, and seafood.
“From our crabbers in Alaska, to the lobstermen in Maine, to the great shrimpers in the Gulf of America, our nation is blessed with incredible men and women who work to bring this bounty to our plates. The Trump Administration has recognized their incredible efforts and is working to provide all the necessary tools for them to succeed with our America First Seafood Strategy,” said Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins. “Today’s announcement expanding funding opportunities for seafood processing from USDA highlights our commitment to building out the resources needed for American seafood products to be readily available for consumers. We look forward to continuing to serve American fishermen through the USDA Office of Seafood we created earlier this year, building on President Trump’s America First vision.”
Earlier this year, President Trump signed Executive Order 14424, Promoting Fair Competition in Livestock Markets and Expanding Market Access for American Meat Producers, to support American ranchers by reducing barriers to processing their product for sale to consumers. As…

Former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom was ejected from the Indiana Fever’s victory over the Chicago Sky after a courtside confrontation. Freedom was wearing a shirt that read “WOMAN noun. adult human female.” Chicago Sky guard Natasha Cloud approached him during a timeout, yelling and pointing. Freedom stood with his arms outstretched before security and officials removed him from the arena.
Freedom later stated that he was kicked out for supporting women and protecting women’s sports. He has already declared himself eligible for the 2027 WNBA Draft specifically to highlight that the league’s rules do not clearly define the word “woman.” The incident captures the central contradiction now running through women’s athletics: stating a basic biological fact is treated as a provocation, while the erasure of sex-based categories is treated as progress.
The Shirt & The Reaction
The message on Freedom’s shirt is a dictionary definition. It is not a slur. It is not a call for violence. It is the ordinary meaning of the word that has existed for centuries. Yet in the current climate of professional women’s basketball, that definition is radioactive. Natasha Cloud’s decision to confront Freedom courtside turned a silent statement into a public spectacle. Security then removed the man wearing the shirt rather than the player who initiated the confrontation.
Freedom’s response was consistent with his record. He has spoken repeatedly about the importance of protecting female athletes from the physical advantages that male…
