A highly-anticipated White House report about childhood diseases has provoked a tug-of-war pitting farmers and some prominent Republican lawmakers against health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his “Make America Healthy Again” movement ahead of its release.

Farmers and Republicans are nervous about what the report might say about glyphosate, the ingredient commonly used in pesticides sprayed on crops. Kennedy has denied the report will be unfavorable to farmers.

Speaking on the Senate floor on Wednesday, Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley warned that farmers have reached out to him, upset they have not been able to provide input on the MAHA report ahead of its release.

Yeah, I know he's a kook, but he's right about some things. My guess is that they'll never let him do the sensible things and he'll only do the crazy shit like banning vaccines.

Exactly... In us you can say anything you want as long as it ain't the truth that will hurt the parasite's profit, then you will be "deposed" in way so you stop telling such truth.

JFK and MLK... That was the beginning of the end of American project IMHO
