Prince Andrew is to lose his 'prince' title and leave his Windsor mansion, Royal Lodge, following weeks of intense scrutiny over his links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

In a statement on Thursday night, Buckingham Palace said the King's brother will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.

Andrew gave up his other royal titles earlier this month, including the Duke of York, after facing more questions about his private life.

“President Trump issued an executive order late Wednesday aimed at spurring the domestic production of glyphosate, a widely used weedkiller that has figured in health lawsuits.

The move immediately set off alarms among supporters of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s “Make America Healthy Again” movement, and appeared to put Mr. Kennedy in an awkward position.”

This shows how fanatically stupid the anti fertilizer crew

Next back to leeches

Peachy ayon kay ...

lets dig a little deeper into the NYT link.

first: reason given: "critical to the national defense.”
hmmm.
next:
"Mr. Kennedy has taken an aggressive posture on pesticides in the past. “The chemicals pollute our bodies the same way that they pollute the soil,” he said in 2024. In a report issued last year, a commission he chaired to examine the causes of chronic disease singled out glyphosate and another pesticide, atrazine, as potentially harmful to children.

While many experts say the risks of glyphosate to the general population are low, bodies reviewing research have had differing conclusions. In 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans.” Two years later, the Environmental Protection Agency said that glyphosate was “not likely to be carcinogenic to humans.”

Peachy ayon kay ...

more:
"Late last year, a landmark study that had found glyphosate to be safe 25 years ago was retracted by the scientific journal that published it, undermining confidence in the science behind a weedkiller that has become integral to American food production. It is used on soybeans, corn and wheat, on specialty crops like almonds, and on cotton and in home gardens.

The Defense Production Act provides a pathway for companies to be shielded from certain liability suits, and Mr. Trump’s order appeared to extend that protection to producers of glyphosate. The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments in weeks in a case that asks whether federal law shields pesticide manufacturers from such lawsuits."

I had a strange bank error today in an old account that I use for recurring nits, like my two streaming services and $0.99 for something from Apple. No telling what that is…

I transfer a few hundred dollars over every other month and did so yesterday. When I checked my balance this morning it was ~$900 instead of ~$500. It shows my $300 deposit plus another transfer in my name for $384.17.

No earthly idea what that deposit is or where it came from. There’s not a branch at the lake, but I guess the next time I’m back in town I can drop in to complain that there’s too much money in my account. lol

Inga ayon kay ...

“The executive order Mr. Trump issued Wednesday to increase domestic production of glyphosate — a widely used weedkiller and possible carcinogen that has been the target of thousands of lawsuits, including one brought by Mr. Kennedy — stunned and infuriated the activists.

It now threatens to turn the brief MAHA-Trump marriage into a divorce.

“Women feel like they were lied to, that MAHA movement is a sham,” said Alex Clark, a health and wellness podcaster for the conservative group Turning Point U.S.A., which is closely allied with the president. “How am I supposed to rally these women to vote red in the midterms? How can we win their trust back? I am unsure if we can.”

The campaign against glyphosate has been central to the MAHA movement.

Sometimes banks periodically clean up all their random accounts and transfer the money into more active accounts. I'm looking after my father's bank accounts, and last month he had a random deposit of hundreds of dollars, from his bank. I googled it, and that was the explanation I got.

I think processed dog food gives Golden Retrievers cancer. There are a couple of preservatives that are carcinogenic in humans. They still use them for dog food.

My dog Blue, I feed her raw chicken for breakfast. And for dinner, cold soup. Also I sometimes sub in some expensive internet kibble.

It's amazing how people food is cheaper than dog food. I can get a bag of soup bones for $3 on the people food aisle. Raw chicken is four meals for $8, or $2 a meal.

Canned dog food is like $3 a can. She's a 100-pound dog. The damn label says, 1 can per 10 pounds.

I'm supposed to give her 10 of those a day?

$30 a day, or cancer. Those are my options on the dog food aisle. Dude, if I'm spending $30, she's getting a steak. What the fuck, Purina.

Aggie ayon kay ...

I prepare the food for our 2 dogs. Usually boiled chicken thighs, deboned/deskinned, occasionally pork butt, also boiled. I keep the broth, skimming off fat. They get brown rice, sweet potatoes, mixed frozen vegetables, all boiled. 1/3-1/2 meat protein, 1/4 brown rice, the rest veggies. We probably spend about $25-30 per week on them, adding in frozen marrow bones and healthy treats. They're very healthy, and lean. Canned food is a very rare treat for them, but we also supplement with high-quality kibble.

“When President Trump’s Russia-Ukraine peace plan reached a dead end, he turned around, cut a deal with India, and strangled the Russian economy overnight.
Along with the economy of Russia’s petro-partner, Iran, which is trapped in gunboat diplomacy. (Venezuela, of course, was already dealt with.) And now China — ludicrously heralded by the BBC as a “Green Superpower”(!) despite Chinese greenhouse emissions exceeding all developed nations combined — will now eat the higher cost, too. All of America’s strategic rivals were caught flatfooted.
It didn’t receive the recognition it deserved, but that’s the epitome of 4-D chess. 
Potentially, this was the week when Russia finally lost the Ukraine war. Putin can’t win a war of attrition if he runs out of money before Ukraine does. And now, for the very first time, Russia is truly, completely isolated.
We still need to see how it all plays out, but President Trump just might’ve engineered the diplomatic coup of the century.”

Glyphosate exposure is a nationwide issue affecting children across the U.S., with 87% of tested children having detectable levels in their urine, mostly from food residues. While agricultural areas—often in rural "red states"—have higher usage, exposure is widespread due to dietary intake. There is no definitive data linking "most" danger solely to red states.
The New York Times
The New York Times
+2
Ubiquitous Exposure: Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide, frequently found in common foods like oats and cereals, making it a nationwide exposure risk.
Agricultural Proximity: Children living on or near farms in major agricultural states, which are often classified as "red states" (e.g., Iowa, Kansas), are more likely to have higher exposure due to spray drift, according to NBC News.
Health Concerns: Studies have linked childhood exposure to potential long-term risks, including liver inflammation and metabolic disorders, particularly due to higher susceptibility.
State Protections: Many states, including red states like Texas and Kentucky, have implemented regulations to protect school children from pesticide exposure, such as restrictions on spraying near schools.

Blockade on the high seas is an act of war. Why did the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor? Because of a US shipping oil embargo of Viet Nam, which the Japanese had taken from the French.

Another take on China buying all of that oil that Bloomberg says was "rejected by India" whatever that means, is that they expect the Straits of Hormuz to be closed and are stockpiling.

The group of women who call themselves 'MAHA Moms', in support of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr's 'Make America Healthy Again' campaign, are now turning on President Donald Trump.

On Wednesday, the president signed an executive order to increase the supply of glyphosate-based herbicides…

Kelly Ryerson, a prominent MAHA activist known as GlyphosateGirl, said in a post on X: "Just as the large MAHA base begins to consider what to do at midterms, the President issues an EO to expand domestic glyphosate production. The very same carcinogenic pesticide that MAHA cares about most."

🇺🇸 THE ULTIMATE AMERICAN REVENGE STORY 🇺🇸
​The script couldn't have written it better. In 1989, Arthur Liu fled China as a political refugee after the Tiananmen Square massacre. He came to America with nothing but a dream for a free life.
​Decades later, his daughter Alysa Liu became the face of Team USA.
​But the CCP didn’t forget. Before the 2022 Beijing Olympics, the FBI uncovered a "brazen" spying operation. The target? Alysa and her father. The Chinese government tried to:
​Stalk them on U.S. soil.
​Intimidate her into silence.
​Pressure her to turn her back on the country that gave her family refuge.
​The FBI had to give them 24/7 security just so she could compete. 🛡️
​She faced the intimidation. She refused to be a pawn. She walked away from the sport for two years to find her soul again—and then she came back with a vengeance.
​TODAY, THE STORY IS COMPLETE. In a flawless performance to Donna Summer’s “MacArthur Park,” Alysa Liu just did the impossible.
​🥇 OLYMPIC GOLD. 🥇 The first American woman to win individual gold in 24 years.
​She didn’t just skate for a medal. She skated for the freedom her father risked everything for. She didn’t just win for herself; she won for the flag that protected her family when the world felt small.
​This is what a Patriot looks like. 🇺🇸✨

The move was announced following protests in front of the company’s headquarters in Denver. Chants by the protestors included "Palantir out of Denver" and "No AI for ICE," according to the Denver Post. So the protesters got their wish. Bye, bye Colorado!

Makes my day!

Jaq: " There is no threat from Iran to the United States, which the War Powers Act requires."

50 USC 1541(c), the preamble to the WPA, just says "The constitutional powers of the President as Commander-in-Chief to introduce United States Armed Forces into hostilities, or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances, are exercised only pursuant to (1) a declaration of war, (2) specific statutory authorization, or (3) a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces."

I would say stopping an Iranian nuke would be "imminent involvement in hostilities...clearly indicated by the circumstances" in order to prevent an "attack upon the US &c."

Also, any action by the mullahs against all the US assets already in the region would be an "attack upon...its armed forces" [should be "their," but the 70s Congress were all New Dealers, on both sides].

So the WPA is just a set of instructions for how to get into combat: dangle troops in front of your desired enemy until he attacks them, and hey presto, you've got a reason to use force.

Anyway, the WPA is not a criminal statute. It says the President has to do a bunch of stuff, but has no penalty if he doesn't do it. Trump the Builder is just going to say "this isn't a contract. There's no consideration. There's nothing that says what happens to me if I don't perform. Impeachment? They'll impeach me for spitting on the sidewalk. Might as well hang for a sheep as for a lamb."

The WPA is just typical Democrat "we made this bad thing illegal - now it's not gonna happen!"

Trump looks at stuff like that and laughs. CC, JSM

"Bibi may have reminded Trump that Mossad has ALL the Epstein files."

I doubt that Trump has a thing for little girls, or little boys or "pizza with grape soda" or whatever, but he might have something on Trump, I am beginning to think.

But you know something funny? The Democrats are not speaking out against this pointless war either, are they? We can get people on the streets to try to prevent criminal aliens from being deported, but to stop us from bombing a nation of 92 million people to 'protect demonstrators'? Not a peep.

It just might be that Mossad has files on the Democrats too.

Tehran knows Trump will not put boots on the ground. Nor do they care how many Iranians die for their noble cause. Therefore they will follow the Putin maximalist doctrine. With every American "atrocity" their support will grow. They just need to let America kill Iranians.

When the US/Israel attacks they must be very selective about their targets. Regime commands, nuclear and missile factories, secret police headquarters -- and then it stops.If there is to be regime change the Iranians have to do it.

And meanwhile the real cancer of Putinism is allowed to breed uncontested.

"I would say stopping an Iranian nuke"

Iranians were more than willing to negotiate on that matter, last time we attacked them and tried to kill their leaders during the negotiations, well Israel did, to force Trump's hand. Which is what I bet happens this time.

Besides, I thought that we had time because Trump had "obliterated" their nuclear program.

What's your definition of "little girls"? 11--14 yrs old, or 15--17 yrs old? I believe Trump is entirely capable of abusing 16--17 yrs who look like 18--20 yr olds.

I had my first HS baseball game of the season last night. It is unbelievable how good my plate mechanics have become after a three year break. I’m always the oldest guy now and nobody ever expects anything, but in a group of 120 umpires,
I’m right there with the top 5. Beautiful field, Gentle breeze. The Alabama coast is fucking heaven man.

Yes, Iran has been evil ever since they overthrew the puppet we installed in 1953.

I am sure that Kak is truly worried about the Iranian people, so he wants to "help them" by bombing their country into the Stone Age. By choking their economy and crashing their currency, and what is their crime?

They sit at the choke point of the Western economy, the Straits of Hormuz

They have a lot of oil.

They provide Russia and China with strategic depth. Neither Russia or China has done anything to us, but still they must be destroyed.

These are the reasons, and the rest of the phantasmagoria that people like Kak push have nothing to do with the real thinking.

I think it is funny that people who consider themselves intelligent fall for the kind of reasoning put out there by the likes of Kak, who can never get enough of these endless wars.

Be curious if Starmer stands by his stand that the US can't use Diego Garcia and Cyprus to attack Iran.

Starmer got 32% of the vote. That necessarily means that his power depends entirely on a small percentage of the population that can turn out voters in a disciplined way, it's simple math. Think how the Somalis took over the DFL low turnout primaries and took over the state to the extent that, well, just compare the new Minnesota state flag to flags from Somalia.

I am betting though that Starmer caves, but Diego Garcia could be hit by Iranian missiles. So could Cyprus, by some of them, purportedly.

’I prepare the food for our 2 dogs.’

A dozen years ago the older Beastette got a GSP and had an out of town wedding so I puppysat the little bundle of joy. In the provided backpack of instructions, toys, emergency contacts, and blankets were three snack bags of puppy chow.

The first night after feeding her I took offense at such a sad meal offering and made her three scrambled eggs. I thought the little booger was gonna auto-gyrate off the ground while eating them… lol

The next morning after our boat ride I took her to Dairy Queen for her first pup cup. And, at the risk of bragging, I’m still her favorite grandparent, and she still goes nuts every time she sees me. To be certain: the GSP, not the Beastette. ;)

I half agree with you. Russia should be our ally. But the ChiComs tried to kill us with their engineered virus. And Han Chinese are the most racist people on earth. They see the world as zero-sum, and they want to be on the plus side of the sum. No matter how bad our negative side becomes. They will either rule us or destroy us unless we do it first.

The people emailing Epstein want a world population of 500 million, people like Bill Gates. That sounds like a big club, but likely you and I won't be in it. Think about that when you see us taking foolish risks that could escalate into WW3 going hot.

Think about the fact that you have people who quite clearly hate Donald Trump egging him on into this potentially disastrous war.
