“I volunteered for her campaign in 2019 and 2020… I probably met her 30 times…Over two years ago, she promised to come on my podcast, but never connected. Last year, when I was on Jeremy Kauffman’s campaign, she came and campaigned for Don Bolduc, a warmongering Republican. I called her out on social media for her obvious hypocrisy.

Then when she heard I was her liaison, she first requested that it be someone other than me, then pulled out of the event altogether.” QUESTIONS?

Trump’s executive order protecting glyphosate (which RFK Jr supports) is such a perfect example of how the American political system works, and one of the main reasons I became a farmer. Bayer (which acquired Monsanto in 2018) is getting sued into oblivion over claims glyphosate causes cancer, to the extent they’re paying out billions in losses and facing the real possibility of going bankrupt. Then all of a sudden, states like Georgia pass laws protecting glyphosate manufacturers from liability and the President passes a similar executive order in the name of national defense.

We must go direct with farmers who use the kind of methods we want for our dinner. Even if we ban glyphosate, there are plenty of worse (yes, hard to believe!) chemicals waiting to take its place. There is no way out ...
