BILLIONS AGAINST BAYER
Pass the No Immunity for Glyphosate Act
In a surprise move, President Donald Trump has given Bayer legal immunity for Monsanto’s glyphosate-based Roundup weed killer under the Defense Production Act.
Trump’s Executive Order, “Promoting the National Defense by Ensuring an Adequate Supply of Elemental Phosphorus and Glyphosate-Based Herbicides,” directs the Department of Agriculture to contract with Bayer to mine more phosphorus and make more glyphosate.
Under the Defense Production Act, Bayer cannot “be held liable for damages or penalties for any act … resulting … from compliance with a rule … issued pursuant to” the Act, even if “such rule … shall thereafter be declared … to be invalid.” That means, as long as the Department of Agriculture makes the rules for phosphorus mining and glyphosate production under the Defense Production Act per Trump’s Executive Order, Bayer can’t be held liable for anything it does to comply with them.
If the Department of Agriculture orders Bayer to soak every acre of farmland in the country with glyphosate and everyone exposed dies of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Bayer is off the hook, even if the courts eventually decide the Department of Agriculture had no right to do that.
To undo Trump’s horrible Executive Order, Congressman Thomas Massie has introduced the “No Immunity for Glyphosate Act.”

In 2025, Bayer spent at least $9.19 Million on lobbying and retained at least 13 lobby firms and at least 49 registered lobbyists registered to lobby for the company (including Bayer’s six in-house lobbyists) as of the fourth quarter, federal disclosures show. The agribusiness sector ranked ninth with $219.9 million in lobbying expenditures in 2025 – the highest year on record for the sector. The sector total matters because Bayer’s influence is amplified by an integrated industrial agribusiness system that acts in concert – from pesticide-dependent commodity crops to factory farms and ultra-processed food production – to shape policy in its favor.

Lyme/MSIDS patients often must eliminate many things from their diet to achieve health. This has certainly been the case for me. I can no longer eat wheat – but it isn’t the wheat/gluten that’s the problem – it’s the glyphosate. How do I know this? I am able to eat GMO free wheat products.
It’s important to know; however, that the organic certification does not guarantee the complete absence of glyphosate due to the fact there is environmental contamination, drift from conventional farms, and contaminated water sources.
Jimmy Dore Show

Jimmy interviews Moms Across America’s Zen Honeycutt about a recent Donald Trump executive order and proposed Farm Bill language related to glyphosate and pesticide regulation. Despite campaign promises about reducing toxins and addressing chronic illness, the President’s actions demonstrate that the Trump administration is favoring agribusiness interests and could shield pesticide manufacturers from liability while limiting state and local authority.
The two discuss evidence demonstrating that glyphosate-based herbicides cause cancer and other health harms and criticize regulatory agencies and corporate influence in Washington. The segment frames the issue as a betrayal of MAHA voters and urges grassroots activism to oppose the legislation.
The House Floor: Thomas Massie
Massie rips the DOJ a new one over the lack of investigation and arrests after the revelation of the Epstein Files and at about 3:30 goes into how the entire government (federal and state) is under siege by lobbyists & lawyers from a German company named Bayer. He points out the reason it’s under ‘national defense priority‘ is to protect them from any liability to damages caused by their chemicals. Bayer bought Monsanto in 2018 for About $63 Billion – the company making Round Up which is glyphosate-based herbicide.
