Mumma Mea acknowledges 2 00:00:15,334 --> 00:00:18,134 Speaker 1: the traditional owners of land and waters that this podcast 3 00:00:18,214 --> 00:00:22,614 Speaker 1: is recorded on Hi. I'm Jimmy Donna, Who from a 4 00:00:22,694 --> 00:00:26,054 Speaker 1: Mamea's twice daily news podcast, The Quickie with your Headlines 5 00:00:26,054 --> 00:00:30,494 Speaker 1: for Thursday July twenty four, Australian cattle producers are feeling 6 00:00:30,494 --> 00:00:33,494 Speaker 1: blindsided by the federal government's decision to lift a ban 7 00:00:33,614 --> 00:00:37,254 Speaker 1: on US beef. This move, aimed at easing trade tensions 8 00:00:37,294 --> 00:00:41,374 Speaker 1: with the US, has sparked frustrations within the industry. However, 9 00:00:41,454 --> 00:00:44,574 Speaker 1: experts believe there will be minimal impact on the domestic market, 10 00:00:44,654 --> 00:00:47,294 Speaker 1: pointing out that the US already struggles to meet its 11 00:00:47,334 --> 00:00:52,574 Speaker 1: own beef demand. Agriculture Minister Julie Collins insists the decision 12 00:00:52,694 --> 00:00:55,694 Speaker 1: is based on a decade long scientific review and is 13 00:00:55,774 --> 00:00:59,534 Speaker 1: unrelated to President Donald Trump's recent tariff regime, but the 14 00:00:59,574 --> 00:01:03,774 Speaker 1: timing does coincide with Australia seeking exemptions from US tariffs, 15 00:01:04,014 --> 00:01:07,094 Speaker 1: raising concerns from the opposition that this beef banlift is 16 00:01:07,214 --> 00:01:10,694 Speaker 1: just a bargaining chip. Despite these wars bries, both industry 17 00:01:10,734 --> 00:01:14,534 Speaker 1: and government maintained that biosecurity standards have not been compromised. 18 00:01:14,974 --> 00:01:18,534 Speaker 1: Australia remains a significant beef exporter to the US, with 19 00:01:18,654 --> 00:01:21,894 Speaker 1: trade valued at fourteen billion dollars in twenty twenty four. 20 00:01:22,214 --> 00:01:26,054 Speaker 1: Trump has also threatened tariffs on pharmaceutical imports to the US, 21 00:01:26,254 --> 00:01:30,574 Speaker 1: another major Australian export.

At first, the 27 00:01:48,814 --> 00:01:51,894 Speaker 1: White House dismissed the story as fake news, but an 28 00:01:51,894 --> 00:01:55,814 Speaker 1: official later clarified that the administration wasn't denying Trump's name 29 00:01:55,934 --> 00:02:00,294 Speaker 1: appeared in some files. This situation has intensified criticism from 30 00:02:00,334 --> 00:02:04,574 Speaker 1: Trump's base, especially since his administration had previously reversed a 31 00:02:04,654 --> 00:02:09,174 Speaker 1: campaign promise to release the Epstein files. Trump has consistently 32 00:02:09,254 --> 00:02:12,454 Speaker 1: denied uied any wrongdoings, stating that his friendship with Epstein 33 00:02:12,654 --> 00:02:15,814 Speaker 1: ended before the sex offenders initial legal troubles began two 34 00:02:15,894 --> 00:02:19,734 Speaker 1: decades ago. Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in twenty nineteen 35 00:02:19,814 --> 00:02:22,894 Speaker 1: while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, to which he 36 00:02:22,934 --> 00:02:27,574 Speaker 1: had pleaded not guilty.
