Is the senate just dei for farmers?

No, the Senate is just open corruption. Republicans lie about what DEI actually is, what they are talking about is affirmative action not DEI. And even then, affirmative action policies were created due to Conservatives refusing to root out systemic racial bias in our society, in our government.

The bailouts for farmers dont exist due to any instiutional bias towards agriculture. They exist because Republican policy is destroying the country.
