| Description | An architect living in Manhattan said he received a $3,300 check as part of President Trump’s bailout for farmers hurt by ongoing trade wars, even though he said he only spends two weeks a year on his family farm in Ohio.
Scott Yocom was one of at least 1,100 residents living in one of the 50 largest cities in the U.S. to receive bailout funds from the Agriculture Department, according to the Washington Post.
As a part-owner, Yocom is eligible to receive the funds even though he has a full-time job other than managing the family farm. The farm was passed on to Yocom from his grandfather through his father and down to him. |
