Dunford needs to hit the road
Pompeo a sock puppet for biotech industry
Pompeo knows he is a sock puppet for the GMO industry. Contrary to Pompeo’s remarks, efforts to push GMO labeling aren’t at the hands a few activists. Approximately 9 out of 10 American want GMO products to be labeled – a right enjoyed by consumers in 64 other countries that actual have actual representative governments.
Rep. Mike Pompeo (R-Kan) issued the legislation in an effort to keep Americans in the dark about the toxic herbicides that clothe their food. Pompeo, who was almost certainty paid by GMO lobbyists, pushed the Dark Act on the debunked grounds that GMO labeling would raise food prices.
“Precisely zero pieces of credible evidence have been presented that foods produced with biotechnology pose any risk to our health and safety,” Pompeo said. “We should not raise prices on consumers based on the wishes of a handful of activists.”
WAKE UP!!!!!!!!
Since the days of Ronald Reagan, the Republican Party has avowed itself the defender of state and local rights in the face of an imperious federal government. From the 1980s on, this doctrine of state control, often called the New Federalism, was hailed as the “devolution revolution” and is at the very heart of conservative and Tea Party rhetoric today.
For House Republicans, this week may be a major test as to whether their devotion to state’s rights is a foundational principle for which they stand, or mere hypocritical rhetoric to be tossed aside when a few major corporations want to improve their bottom line and crush state and local democratic decision-making.
What brings this issue dramatically forward is a bill that the House may vote on in the coming week. Introduced by Kansas Republican Rep. Mike Pompeo at the behest of Monsanto and other chemical and big agribusiness companies, this bill (H.R. 1599) is often referred to as the “Denying Americans the Right to Know or DARK Act.” As written, H.R. 1599 would have an almost unprecedented impact in negating state and local decision-making. It requires that only federal law can govern issues surrounding genetically engineered (GE) crops, certain farm practices, seed and food labeling, and restrictions on certain pesticide use. The bill would therefore negate over 130 existing state and local level statutes, regulations, and ordinances passed by the legislatures and citizens in 43 states.

Rep. Pompeo to reintroduce Monsanto’s dream bill to Congress
If ever there was a GMO lackey and puppet that stood for the poisoning of the people with GMOs over standing up for the constituents who voted him into office, its Representative Mike Pompeo. There’s a special kind of ‘wow’ reserved for Congressional bills like the one he’s once again proposing on behalf of Monsanto and Big Biotech.
The Kansas Republican would like to re-introduce Monsanto’s dream bill – it would give Monsanto, and their friends like Syngenta, Dow, and Bayer carte blanche (complete freedom) to grow GMO foods without labels, without state rights, and without consumer choice. It is a law that promotes the biotech agenda through and through. It was introduced during the last congressional sessions, but fortunately, did not pass. Pompeo is presenting it again.
If the US ever wanted to just write Monsanto a blank check for their biotech herbicides and GMO crops, known for ruining health and damaging soil, then this legislation, dubbed by critics the Deny Americans the Right-to-Know (DARK) Act, is it.
The Torah described the region between west Arabia and Yemen , the real place where the Israelites lived, and not Palestine. Egypt knew no pharaohs, Moses or Israelites . Palestine knew no Israelites, David or Solomon . There is no connection between Israelites and jews, it is a big lie.Their claim is myth , the truth will be unveiled someday. We are witnessing the biggest robbery and fraud in the history.
