If you haven’t watched this yet please do.
I don’t care if you are Republican or Democrat, if this doesn’t move you to vote against the current state of affairs nothing will.
Our grandchildren will watch this clip in history class, to better understand the political climate during Trumpism.

Wrote about the nightmare of livestock transportation!

Thank you for investigating this and thanks to the lawsuit. The EPA must be held accountable.
A new lawsuit alleges that U.S. regulators are illegally withholding records related to the disbandment of a panel set up to address factory farm pollution. Brian Bienkowski reports via @thenewledenews:

What a surprise. I thought Brooke Rollins said over a year ago that the USDA was going to eliminate HPAI with better biosecurity measures.

Iowa has the nation’s worst water quality and fastest-rising cancer rate. Now farm pollution is on the ballot, with candidates from both parties talking nitrates and cancer. buff.ly/dssm122

Maryland is facing a manure pollution problem, thanks to the factory farm industry. These farms are generating mass amounts of animal waste, causing air, soil, and water pollution.

Elevated cancer risks and the destruction of fish & wildlife in our nation's waterways.
Thank you @NickKristof for writing about a subject that few are willing to think about. And thanks to the undercover investigators who, along with journalists like you, are unwilling to let the issue stay hidden.
The meat industry tries very hard to keep cameras out of factory farms and slaughterhouses -- and a new undercover video shows why. Some day, our descendants will wonder about our collective blind spot to animal cruelty. A gift link to my column: nytimes.com/2026/10/17/opini…
Really important stuff. Thought I knew a lot about pesticides. But the corruption uncovered here, while not surprising, is staggering. Thank you @careygillam

EPA officials complain that they can't keep up with pesticide registration assessments because of having to deal with litigation. But so far, suing the agency is the only thing that gets it done.
The EPA has never set Clean Water Act standards for atrazine
Atrazine is the most widespread pesticide water contaminant in the US
We've just sued the EPA to get its act together and start doing its job

A new study found that climate, health, and animal welfare labels did little to influence what people ate. Instead, menu placement and presenting vegetarian food as the default can raise veg choices by up to 85%.

My my. Who wouldn't guessed?
Woopsie.
LAST MONTH, RFK’s @NIH gave another $390K to an animal testing collaboration with the Russian government’s Institute of Cytology and Genetics in Siberia, which has previously done plague research with none other than the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Institute.
Jeremy Rifkin's Beyond Beef is an incredible book. Eye-opening about the beef industry in this country.

Talking with Mariquita Solis of @AllCreaturesOrg about the unfathomable scale of factory factory farming.
Who wants to bet that the largest corn & soybean corporate farmers got the most money?
Republican communism: usda.gov/about-usda/news/pre…
A bug killer (neonic) that is demonstrated to be highly toxic to many animals and microorganisms and persists in the environment for long periods.
Nearly every corn seed sold in America comes coated in insecticide, and no one has to track where it ends up.
Growers pay for the chemical whether pests show up or not.
A federal rule treats coated seed as a treated article, not a pesticide application.
That is why the EPA does not monitor it.
Coated corn, soybean and sunflower seed covers almost 180 million acres yearly.
Support growers who skip chemical coatings, find them on Localize.
