Hillary Clinton pushes GMO agenda... hires Monsanto lobbyist... takes huge dollars from Monsanto

Democrats who had been programmed to blindly vote for Hillary Clinton are picking their jaws up off the floor after learning the truth about Hillary's ties to Monsanto. The ties run so deep that she's now being dubbed the "Bride of Frankenfood." (Tweet this story)

Shockingly, Hillary Clinton's ties to Monsanto are new information to her liberal support base. It drives home the important point that nearly everyone supporting Hillary Clinton has no idea who she really is, as evidenced by this stunning new video from Mark Dice and Luke Rudkowski.

"Hillary Rodham Clinton's ties to agribusiness giant Monsanto, and her advocacy for the industry's genetically modified crops, have environmentalists in Iowa calling her 'Bride of Frankenfood'" reports the Washington Times. "A large faction of women voiced strong support for Mrs. Clinton's candidacy until the GMO issue came up, prompting them to switch allegiances to Sen. Bernard Sanders of Vermont, a liberal stalwart challenging her for the Democratic nomination."

Oh my, how little they really know about the real Hillary Clinton... keep reading to find out more...



Monsanto and Bill Gates are top donors to the Clinton Family Foundation

A quick look at this table of Clinton Family Foundation donors reveals both the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Monsanto as two of the heavy-hitting donors to the Clinton "Crime" Family Foundation.

Bill Gates, of course, pushes vaccines on the world, while Monsanto pushes GMOs. It's a toxic one-two punch for global depopulation.

Hillary Clinton's donors also include the drug maker Pfizer, ExxonMobil, Dow Chemical, Goldman Sachs, Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola and many more. It's a who's who compilation of the most evil corporations and institutions on planet Earth, and they've all given huge money -- tens of millions of dollars -- to Hillary Clinton.

All the corporations are, of course, buying influence with the Clintons. This obvious fact was wildly attacked by extreme leftist Democratic party operatives like George Stephanopoulos, who turned out to have hidden his own $75,000 in donations to the same Clinton Foundation. He claims he thought he was donating to halt "deforestation." Hillaryious!

Hillary Clinton hires former Monsanto lobbyist to run her campaign

If you're still not convinced that Hillary Clinton has strong ties to Monsanto, ask yourself why she just hired a prominent Monsanto lobbyist to run her campaign.

As True Activist reports:

Hillary Clinton recently announced that she will be appointing long-time Monsanto lobbyist Jerry Crawford as adviser to her "Ready for Hillary" super PAC... Over the years, Crawford has been instrumental in fighting against small farmers in court and protecting Monsanto's seed monopoly.

Crawford is an "equal opportunity payola operative" who hands out political bribes to members of both parties. "Crawford has mostly worked with Democratic politicians in the past, but has also put his support behind Republican candidates as well. Anyone who was willing to support Monsanto's goals would receive support from Crawford," says TrueActivist.com.

Hillary Clinton's law firm used to have Monsanto as a client

Back in the 1990s, during the era when Vince Foster was murdered for what he knew about the Clintons, Hillary Clinton was a partner at the Rose Law Firm. This law firm counted Monsanto as its client:

"Her history of backing GMO dates back to her early days in Arkansas as a lawyer with the Rose Law Firm, which represented Monsanto and other agribusiness leaders," reports the Washington Times.

Almost none of today's activist voters are even old enough to remember the Rose Law Firm, the Clintons' Whitewater scandal, or even the fact that Hillary Clinton ran the media attacks on all the women who tried to go public with claims of being sexually violated by Bill Clinton. (Yes, Hillary ran the "blame the victim" campaign to protect Bill!)

Yet in an age where progressives demand full transparency on all the issues that matter to them most -- immigration, gay marriage, gun control and so on -- Hillary finds herself squarely on the wrong side of the GMO issue. She's a puppet for Monsanto and all its toxic practices that destroy life and destroy the environment.



Hillary Clinton pushes toxic pesticides, herbicides and other agricultural chemicals

At every opportunity, Hillary Clinton pushes toxic chemicals, pesticides and herbicides that contaminate the food supply, promote human diseases like Alzheimer's and even threaten destruction of the environment. Hillary Clinton, Bride of Frankenfood, is also a "chemical holocaust" pusher who works hard to make sure every woman and child in America eats food laced with cancer-causing glyphosate.

"In the GMO debate, Mrs. Clinton has consistently sided with the chemical companies," says the Washington Times. "A new scientific study bolstered environmentalists' concerns by finding the herbicide Roundup could be linked to a range of health problems and diseases, including Parkinson's, infertility and cancers. The study published last month in the scientific journal Entropy also reported evidence that residue of glyphosate, a chief ingredient in the weed killer, has been found in food."

That food, of course, enriches Monsanto and the other biotech firms, many of which kick back huge donations to Hillary Clinton as long as she keeps pushing poison.

A vote for Hillary, it turns out, is a vote for Monsanto.

Hillary Clinton hands nuclear fuel resource deal to Russia

It's not just GMOs, either, that haunt the real history of Hillary Clinton. As The Atlantic reported this year, Hillary Clinton was also instrumental in handing the Russian government a near-monopoly over nuclear weapons uranium supplies.

All the while, money was flowing into the Clinton foundation from uranium interests:

In total, people affiliated with Uranium One or its predecessor gave more than $8 million to the Clinton Foundation between 2008 and 2010. Meanwhile, Bill Clinton received $500,000 for a speech in Moscow, paid for by a bank boosting Uranium One stock.

Why does this matter to the Clinton voter support base? Because progressives are rightly anti-nuclear power and anti-nuke weapons. Yet their gender champion Hillary Clinton is out there promoting the proliferation of nuclear fuel and nuclear weapons, all while raking in millions of dollars for her own foundation in exchange for selling her influence to the highest bidder. Suddenly a Clinton presidency doesn't sound so "progressive," does it?

Hillary Clinton parrots Monsanto's talking points as speaker for the Biotechnology Industry Organization

Just to make sure no one is confused about where Hillary Clinton really stands on the issue of GMOs and biotech, she openly parrots Monsanto's quack science talking points in public.

In 2014, she spoke at the Biotechnology Industry Organization and practiced running Monsanto's talking points, saying:

I stand in favor of using seeds and products that have a proven track record ... And to continue to try to make the case for those who are skeptical that they may not know what they're eating already. The question of genetically modified food or hybrids has gone on for many many years. And there is again a big gap between what the facts are and what perceptions are...

During the speech, Clinton basically says that all anti-GMO people are anti-science idiots who don't know "the facts." Those "facts," of course, are all contrived by Monsanto itself and its deep network of financial influence over scientists, universities and even the lamestream media. Hillary Clinton basically concludes that since you don't know you've already been eating GMOs, then it's safe to keep doing so.

How to Keep Avocados Fresh for Days

Saturday, May 16, 2015

Monsanto knew 35 years ago that its glyphosate-soaked 'food' causes cancer

Key data outlining the toxicity of glyphosate (Roundup) was recently uncovered, revealing that Monsanto knew about the cancer-causing effects of its best-selling herbicide more than 35 years ago, as did the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and yet neither entity chose to make this information known in the interest of public health.

Both Monsanto and the EPA knew full well, at least as early as 1981, that glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup herbicide, causes cancer in mammals. Earlier studies conducted during the late 1970s and early 1980s appear to have documented cancer-causing effects from glyphosate in rats, mice and dogs, though this information was buried by Monsanto with the blessing of the EPA.

Using "trade secrets" as an excuse to keep the findings of these studies confidential, Monsanto successfully cherry picked and manipulated its cohort of study data to suggest that glyphosate was safe, and the rest is history. Except that previously hidden memoranda that have since come to light reveal a whole lot more about the true nature of this pervasive chemical pesticide.

According to Sustainable Pulse, uncovered EPA memos from the early 1980s point to research showing that glyphosate caused significant damage to the kidneys of rats. These same studies also noted hyperplasia in the rats, which is considered a very early and necessary step in the formation of cancerous tumors.

In 1981, the EPA scrutinized this data and pressed Monsanto for more information before granting a NOEL, or "no observed adverse effect level," for glyphosate. But less than one year later, Monsanto successfully obfuscated the data and convinced the EPA that glyphosate was safe under the guise that conflicting data was suddenly a "trade secret."

"The evidence shows that by 1981 both Monsanto and the EPA were aware of malignant tumours and pre-cancerous conditions in the test animals which were fed small doses of glyphosate in the secret feeding experiments," said Dr. Brian John for GM-Free Cymru, about the facts.

"Although concerns were expressed at the time by EPA committees, these concerns were later suppressed under the weight of conflicting evidence brought forward by Monsanto, some of it involving the inappropriate use of historical control data of dubious quality. None of these studies is available for independent examination."

Monsanto hid glyphosate dangers by substantially reducing exposure levels in test mice

One of the ways that Monsanto covered up the true dangers associated with glyphosate was to substantially reduce the amount of the chemical given to study rats. Now-exposed EPA memos reveal that test rats in the new studies were suddenly being given only 1/100 of the amount of glyphosate given in earlier studies, with no explanation.

A 1986 EPA memo admitted that this was a curious move by Monsanto, adding that the glyphosate doses tested were nowhere near the "maximally tolerated dose." If the glyphosate doses had remained the same, remarked the then Oncogenicity Peer Review Committee, "tumours might have been induced."

"The effect of glyphosate on endocrine tissue such as breast and prostate, or even placenta, is disruptive at least and an increased incidence of endocrine neoplasia is likely to be seen in National Statistics," added retired academic pathologist Dr. Stanley Ewen, noting that glyphosate's association with pre-neoplastic changes in experimental mice were never revealed as they should have been.

"The Glyphosate Task Force denies the involvement of glyphosate in human malignancy despite their knowledge of many reports of lymphomas and pituitary adenomas in experimental animals dosed with glyphosate."

The tobacco industry, as you may recall, never really recovered from its shameful legacy of lying to the public about the safety of cigarettes. But Monsanto's massive cover-up of glyphosate's cancer-causing effects takes evil to a whole new level, as the multinational corporation not only lied about the herbicide's safety but actively manipulated a federal agency tasked with protecting public health in the process.

Be sure to check out the new World Health Organization International Agency for Research on Cancer report that declares glyphosate to be "probably carcinogenic" to humans:

US Government Admits Americans Have Been Overdosed on Fluoride

IRS promoted employees who cheated on their taxes, audit finds

The IRS refused to fire most of its own employees found to be cheating on their taxes — and in some cases even quickly turned around and promoted them within the year, according to an audit released Wednesday.
In about 60 percent of cases of “willful violations,” IRS managers found mitigating circumstances and refused to fire the employees, even though the law calls for that penalty. In some of those cases, the managers didn’t even document why they had overridden the penalty, said Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration J. Russell George.
“Given its critical role in federal tax administration, the IRS must ensure that its employees comply with the tax law in order to maintain the public’s confidence,” Mr. George said. “Willful violation of the law by IRS employees should not be taken lightly, and the IRS commissioner should fully document decisions made to retain employees whom management has proposed be terminated.”


From 2004 to 2013, the IRS identified nearly 130,000 suspected cases of tax violations by its own employees and concluded about 10 percent of those were actual violations. Mr. George said the agency did a good job of spotting those issues.
Of those 13,000 cases, 1,580 were deemed to be intentional cheaters, and they were sent to managers for discipline. But in 60 percent of the cases, the managers refused to fire the employees.
Among the abuses were employees who repeatedly failed to file their returns on time, those who intentionally inflated their expenses and those who claimed the stimulus homebuyer’s tax credit without buying a home.

LA Times: Scientists Now Editing Human Embryonic DNA To Play God

It's a scenario that has haunted biologists since the dawn of the DNA age: the evil scientist custom-crafting a human being with test tubes and Petri dishes.
So when a Chinese team revealed last month that it had used a new laboratory technique to alter a gene in human embryos, it set off an urgent debate over the ethics — and wisdom — of tinkering with the most basic building blocks of life.
The technology makes genetic manipulations that were theoretical in the past seem easy to achieve — and soon.
If scientists figure out how to do it in a way that's safe for patients, gene editing could produce tremendously beneficial medical treatments. The Chinese researchers, for instance, were trying to repair a defect that causes beta thalassemia, a potentially fatal blood disorder.
But a simple way to alter DNA could open the door to more frightening eugenic pursuits. That makes people nervous.

(Adapted from Healthy Recipes for Your Nutritional Type)

Spinach-Basil Green Minestrone Cooking Tips

Minestrone soup is best cooked using locally grown, organic vegetables, as these are loaded with nutrients and vitamins, and are not contaminated with pesticides and fertilizers.
You’re lucky if you grow your own fresh spinach or basil in your backyard or garden, because healthy living is just within your reach. When harvesting spinach, pick the green, fresh-smelling outer leaves. The remaining leaves will keep the plant growing, and maintain a season of harvest. Avoid using spinach leaves that are water-soaked, wilted, or have yellow patches.2
Wash spinach carefully, pat it dry, and store it in the refrigerator. Aside from mixing it in soups, I recommend serving spinach fresh or steaming it lightly.3
Smaller basil leaves contain the most flavors, so you have to be particular in picking the ones you use. Harvested basil leaves can be preserved by placing it in a water-filled glass, but do not refrigerate it.4
You can also dry basil leaves. Simply heat your oven to 140 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare the basil leaves on baking sheet. Turn off the oven and place it in the pan for 20 minutes. Let the leaves cool, and store it quickly in a tight lipped bottle or Ziplock bags. Store it away from sunlight.

Starbucks new 'coconut milk' is low-quality junk food

Starbucks has become ubiquitous internationally. It has its pleasant atmosphere and conveniences. But even with Starbucks' high prices, Consumer Reports has rated McDonald's cheaper coffee above Starbucks' burnt bean offerings.

Starbucks recently debuted its very own "coconut milk." But is it a healthy dairy alternative, or just another overpriced mediocre even unhealthy item that draws so many who think nicer surroundings cancel out the junk food offered?[1]

Starbucks' coconut milk has 14 ingredients: water, coconut cream, cane sugar, tricalcium phosphate, coconut water concentrate, natural flavors, sea salt, carrageenan, gellan gum, corn dextrin, xanthan gum, guar gum, vitamin A palmitate and vitamin D2.


Here's a breakdown of Starbucks' latest addition to unhealthy mediocrity


Water

There's nothing to indicate that the water is purified, so we're left to assume that fluoridated-chlorinated tap water is used.

Coconut cream

From Tropical Traditions: "Commercial coconut milks and creams are generally sold in cans, or sometimes boxes and tetra packs. The main ingredient in these products is water. If the fat content is 17%, it is called 'coconut milk.' If the fat content is 24%, it is called 'coconut cream.' But most of what you are purchasing is water."[2]

Cane sugar

Why is the coconut milk sweetened? Can't customers simply add their sweetener of choice if they desire a sweet coconut milk? Excess sugar consumption has been linked to many serious health problems like diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancer and more.

Tricalcium phosphate (TCP)

Used as a food thickening agent, which adds smoothness and opacity to food. TCP is commonly derived from the bones of dead animals.[3]

Coconut water concentrate

Most commercially produced coconut water concentrate is pasteurized and all of the beneficial enzymes are destroyed.[4]

Natural flavors

This term is a red flag. Its purpose is to act as a fig leaf to disguise hidden toxic additives like MSG, soy lecithin, aspartame and others.[5][6]

Sea salt

Sea salt is the good stuff, right? Yes and no. The real stuff is good for you, but not all sea salts are genuine. Technically, the sea is where all salt is said to originate from. Since there are no government regulations that qualify how salt can be labeled, it is a classic caveat emptor (buyer beware) situation.

Carrageenan

Carrageenan is a seaweed-based additive that is strongly linked to inflammation. Back in the 1960s, researchers found that food-grade carrageenan was correlated with various types of GI dysfunction in lab rats including ulcerative colitis and intestinal lesions. It acts as a thickener and keeps the ingredients of the food product from separating.[7]

From the Cornucopia Institute:"Degraded carrageenan is such a potent inflammatory agent that scientists routinely use it to induce inflammation and other disease in laboratory animals, to test anti-inflammation drugs and other pharmaceuticals."

Gellan gum

Gellan gum is artificially produced by fermentation of a non-pathogenic bacteria. It's used as a thickening agent. Again, those with gut issues should probably avoid gellan gum.[8]

Corn dextrin

Dextrins are created from starches. Corn dextrin is most likely derived from GMO corn, especially if the corn is from the USA or Argentina. Also, gene technology could be utilized with plant-based starch sources.[9]

Xanthan gum[10]

Xanthan gum is derived from a bacterial fermentation process. It's commonly used as a food thickening agent and a stabilizer in cosmetic products. It has been linked to gastrointestinal symptoms such as bloating, gas and diarrhea.

Guar gum

Guar gum is derived from food. It's used as a thickening agent and/or an emulsifier. Those with sensitive digestive systems could experience problems with very small amounts of guar gum.[11]

Generally, anyone with a sensitive digestive system, especially those with serious digestive problems like IBS, IBD and GERD, should probably avoid all the gum additives, as they are indigestible and may cause varying degrees of gastrointestinal distress.

Isolated synthetic vitamin A

Isolated synthetic vitamin A cannot be metabolized by the body. Instead, it gets stored in the body along with other toxins. Synthetic vitamin A is essentially toxic.[12]

Vitamin D2

Vitamin D3 is most beneficial and bio-available form of D for humans. It's found in whole foods like raw pastured dairy products, seafood and mushrooms, and they contain important enzymes and co-factors that increase bioavailability. The very best form of D3 is made by the human body from sun exposure.[13]

Synthetic vitamin D2 is an isolated form of the vitamin and essentially cannot be used by the body. It may actually be harmful. Vitamin D2 is made by irradiating fungus and plant matter.
