ACTION: No Immunity for Glyphosate Act

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

2/26

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.

 

 

‘Kids Online Safety Act’ Could Usher in Digital ID for Everyone

Once again, under the auspice of ‘protection,’ tyranny crouches ready to pounce….

40 Attorneys General Urge Congress to ‘Tie Online Access to ID’

If passed, the Kids Online Safety Act could ultimately tie a person’s ability to access the internet to providing digital proof of their identity, according to privacy and free speech watchdog group Reclaim The Net.

By Suzanne Burdick, Ph.D. 

Forty state attorneys general (AGs) last week urged federal lawmakers to pass a bill that could ultimately require people to digitally verify their identity to access the internet, according to privacy and free speech watchdog group Reclaim The Net.

In a Feb. 10 letter, the AGs backed the U.S. Senate version of the Kids Online Safety Act. They did not support the U.S. House of Representatives version, which differs in key ways.

If passed, the Senate bill would require government officials and agencies to figure out how computers, cellphones and operating systems could verify people’s age. The bill states:

“The Secretary of Commerce, in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission and the Federal Trade Commission, shall conduct a study evaluating the most technologically feasible methods and options for developing systems to verify age at the device or operating system level.”

The federal officials and agencies would be required to submit a report of their findings to Congress within a year.

Designing cellphones and computer operating systems to verify a user’s age would bring the U.S. another step closer to cementing a digital ID system, Reclaim The Net reported. In an article titled “40 State Attorneys General Want To Tie Online Access to ID,” it wrote:

“Device-level verification would likely depend on digital identity checks tied to government-issued identification, third-party age verification vendors, or persistent account authentication systems. …

“… Once age checks are embedded at the operating system level, the boundary between verifying age and verifying identity becomes difficult to maintain.”

Greg Glaser, a digital privacy expert and attorney, agreed. “By embedding identity checks into apps, hardware, or operating systems, the bill would create a de facto digital ID checkpoint for broad internet use,” he said.  (See link for article)

Make no mistake, globalists are getting tired of the delays. They desperately want us all bagged and tagged and will dupe as many as they can long the way to achieve this ultimate end game.  This is why legislation like the SAVE Act (making US citizens out of everyone born in the U.S. including children of Islamists and CCP males who breach our borders), Real ID (specialized digitized photograph linked to actual international standards that come out of the UN) and now the Kids Online Safety Act keep popping up.

If these AGs care so much about children, why haven’t the clot shots been recalled and why hasn’t anything been done to protect their bodies from radiation exposure that wireless devices emit?

 

ACTION: COVID Justice Resolution

https://covidjustice.org/

COVID Justice Resolution

For years, Americans have waited for an honest reckoning with the COVID-19 response—one grounded in reality rather than excuses or institutional gaslighting. Instead, the nation endured the most sweeping suspension of civil liberties in modern history, driven by emergency powers that often lacked evidence, silenced dissent, and inflicted lasting harm, especially on children, small businesses, the elderly, and the working class.

This proposed Senate resolution is a first step toward clarity.

Developed by collaborators associated with organizations including Autism Action Network, Children’s Health Defense, Health Freedom Defense Fund, Stand For Health Freedom, and The Brownstone Institute, it formally repudiates the most destructive COVID-era policies and establishes binding principles to ensure they are never repeated.

This resolution does not assign blame. It does not trade in fear. It reasserts constitutional limits. It stands as notice to the future: emergency powers must never again override liberty, evidence, or human dignity.

Read the resolution. Remember what happened. Ensure it never happens again.

The COVID Justice Resolution

To affirm the permanent lessons of the COVID-19 response, to repudiate certain emergency measures as incompatible with constitutional liberty, and to establish binding principles for any future public-health emergency.

Whereas the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020–2023 occasioned the most widespread and prolonged suspension of civil liberties in American history;

Whereas many measures taken in the name of public health, at both the federal level and most states, lacked sufficient evidence of efficacy, in some cases were arbitrary, imposed disproportionate harm on the poor and working classes, and violated foundational principles of limited government;

Whereas the Senate now judges, with the benefit of hindsight and exhaustive subsequent reflection, that certain categories of intervention must never be repeated;

Now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Senate—…..(See top link for entire Resolution)

Help Make “The Rash” by Walter Kirn

There are two possible ways history will treat the Covid era.

The establishment preference is for a story of a killer pathogen that leapt from the animal kingdom into humans to create a deadly pandemic that was fixed by an innovative vaccine. This is the preferred line in shrunken form, one already told in countless books and articles. This is how regime historians – cowards who stood by and watched while people were treated like lab rats – want to tell the story.

The real version of events is far more complicated. It is a story of dangerous scientific experiments mixed with misleading propaganda, mass psychosis, and outright lies, and given forward motion by profiteering pharmaceutical companies, censorial media, government grift, opportunistic bureaucrats, and agency malfeasance.

It is also a story of great heroes who stood up and said no.

Who will tell the real story in a way that can cut through the static?

Many documentaries already exist to get the truth out, but much more is needed. What we need is a narrative, a metaphorical telling, a quasi-historical fiction that puts all the absurdity on display in a slightly changed framework. Ideally, this story would exist in its most compelling form as a satirical film. 

The master of this genre is literary critic, author, and screenwriter Walter Kirn, a living treasure of cultural commentary. He was educated at Princeton University and Oxford University, he achieved literary success with novels such as Thumbsucker (1999), adapted into a 2005 film, and Up in the Air (2001), which was adapted into a 2009 film nominated for six Academy Awards including Best Picture.

His 2014 memoir Blood Will Out chronicles a decade-long friendship with Christian Gerhartsreiter, an impostor who posed as Clark Rockefeller and was later convicted of murder. (See link for article and more on The Rash)

Can Cochrane’s New CEO Save the Sinking Ship?

Can Cochrane’s New CEO Save the Sinking Ship?

Player Image

Article Excerpts:

The Cochrane Collaboration is a grassroots organisation founded in 1993. It publishes systematic reviews of healthcare interventions and was highly successful until British journalist Mark Wilson became CEO in 2012. A major medical journal expressed concern that someone with no health care experience was leading one of the foremost organisations dedicated to ensuring good clinical decisions.1 Wilson made the organisation highly ineffective and bureaucratic, and his actions harmed Cochrane’s mission about ensuring high scientific standards.2-4

The problems mounted, and in April 2021, Wilson suddenly left his job, a week before Cochrane’s largest funder, the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) in the UK, announced a major budget cut.5 The funder criticised the poor scientific quality of Cochrane reviews, “a point raised by people in the Collaboration to ensure that garbage does not go into the reviews; otherwise, your reviews will be garbage.”2 Only four months later, the NIHR declared that the funding would stop in March 2023. When that happened, Cochrane was in big disarray, but the huge bureaucracy and the poor scientific standard continued nonetheless.2

I shall discuss 11 cases that stem from my personal experiences and those of Tom Jefferson, one of my previous employees, starting in 2015 when Soares-Weiser became Deputy Editor-in-Chief and got a substantial say about the standard of Cochrane reviews (she became Editor-in-Chief in 2019).12 But first, I shall describe a stunning affair in 2013.

**Comment**

I highly recommend listening to Gøtzsche’s Survival of a Whistleblower to understand what is at stake for speaking out about industry corruption and conflicts of interest.  Gøtzsche certainly has paid the price as have many others throughout history.  We are indebted to those who uphold ethics in a time when it’s always easier to follow the crowd.

As a founding member, Gøtzsche was expelled from the Cochrane group he helped create. Four board members promptly resigned in protest.  He states that within the group, academic freedom has gone, scientific debates are unwelcome, and transparency is a thing of the past. 

The reason for the expulsion?

He challenged the leadership on core issues and on the way it was managing the charity.

He warned that flu ‘vaccine’ research is corrupted.  He also took issue with HPV research charging it may have overlooked side effects.

Proving without a shadow of doubt: it is verboten to question anything about ‘vaccines.’

Gøtzsche is widely known for his fierce attacks on Big Pharma and his criticism of medical interventions he deems useless or harmful. He wrote a controversial book about what he says is the overuse of mammography in breast cancer screening, and in another book likened Pharma to “organized crime.”

This man steps on ALL the toes of the beast.

In short, he states that if Cochrane can not find an ethical CEO, it illustrates how far the organization has sunk morally and scientifically.

“In science, there can be no compromises when these loyalties clash, even if members of the club may feel you don’t respect them or their authority.” ~ Dr. Peter Gøtzsche
