HR 933: “Monsanto Protection Act”, TN reps Corker, Alexander and Fleischmann contribute to “food apocalypse”
A food apocalypse and eventual takeover of our natural food supply is fully underway and many Americans are not even aware of it, for that matter, many who voted for it did not know it existed either or so they claim.
May 28, 2013, The Monsanto 71, a nefarious group of US Senators, such as Tennessee Senators Lamar Alexander, Bob Corker along with Cruz, Paul, Grassley and 66 others blocked the efforts of a Senate Amendment to label food that is genetically modified, altered or pesticide laden and offered by Monsanto and Sygenta.
The measure doesnt call for the elimination of Monsanto or anything too risky politically, just the labeling of those foods you consume that may be detrimental to you. The bills intent was to only warn you that by consuming this genetically modified food you may be putting your health at risk. Simple right? A no brainer? Not so!
You know it’s your choice to eat what you want but it’s going to harm you in the process kinda labeling. Thats all and our progressive Senators Corker, Alexander and Fleischmann couldnt muster enough morality to stop it.
What influence could turn these Senators into uncaring selfish mindless jello capable of placing the interests of large corporations over the health and safety of those they represent?
I believe the answer may be the money that these large corporations leave in the trail when they blaze through their offices.
Large corporate money from Monsanto and Syngenta in exchange for their vote may be the culprit.
Even more disturbing is the recent action of our US House and US Senate.
“The US House of Representatives quietly passed a last-minute addition to the Agricultural Appropriations Bill for 2013 recently – including a provision protecting genetically modified seeds from litigation in the face of health risks.
The rider, which is officially known as the Farmer Assurance Provision, has been derided by opponents of biotech lobbying as the “Monsanto Protection Act,” as it would strip federal courts of the authority to immediately halt the planting and sale of genetically modified (GMO) seed crop regardless of any consumer health concerns.
The provision, also decried as a “biotech rider,” should have gone through the Agricultural or Judiciary Committees for review. Instead, no hearings were held, and the piece was evidently unknown to most prior to its approval as part of HR 993, the short-term funding bill that was approved to avoid a federal government shutdown.”
Our elected leaders, so desperate to save the economy by extending it’s debt, they forgot to read section 735 within HR 933!
On March 26th, 2013, Obama quietly signed this “Monsanto Protection Act” into law thus ensuring the American people have no recourse against this bio-tech giant as they fall ill by the tens of millions, and many millions will surely end up dying in what many call the greatest agricultural apocalypse in human history.
Many of our elected leaders are now claiming they didn’t even know this provision was buried deep inside a bill meant to stop the government “from shutting down!” This is a horrible shame!
Senator Jeff Merkley (D) has called for a repeal of the Monsanto Protection Act and said this on May 20th, 2013 in a recent email,
“It’s one of the most outrageous special interest provisions in years.”
“The Monsanto Protection Act allows corporations to sell genetically-modified seeds even when federal courts have blocked them from doing so. ”
“Just May 30 th, 2013 the FDA found genetically modified Monsanto wheat in our present supply of wheat for consumption by Americans even at the defiance of the courts who have ruled this cannot happen. (Round up doesn’t even kill this wheat for goodness sake, added for emphasis!)
“Think about that! We have a process for making sure that genetically-modified seeds aren’t sold, planted and grown until we know that they don’t pose a threat to other crops or to humans.”
“The Monsanto Protection Act overrides that process. It lets Monsanto and others ignore a court order designed to protect other farmers, the environment, and human health.”
“That’s just wrong.”
“And even worse, the Monsanto Protection Act was passed in secret, stuffed quietly into the budget bill that averted a government shutdown.”
“That’s why I’ve proposed an amendment to the Farm Bill that would repeal the Monsanto Protection Act. Please join me – and demand a vote in the U.S. Senate that would end this outrageous special interest override of judicial decisions.”
-Senator Jeff Merkley
The Monsanto Protection Act was passed in the US Senate and US House on the backs of some prominent liberal progressives like the ever present US Senator Bob Corker, Lamar Alexander and in the House from Tennessee Congressman 3rd District Chuck Fleischmann. These elected leaders should hear from you about this recent vote.
Interesting to note, US Congressman Scott DeJarlais voted NO to the Monsanto Protection Act, swimming swiftly against the TN Tide of progressives in our state that had succumbed to Corporate Welfare in exchange for the safety and welfare of all Tennesseans.
Obviously, the recent votes by Senator Corker, Alexander and Fleischmann will affect millions and possibly jeopardize our agricultural eco balance. The votes by our US Senators have labeled the mockingly as the “Monsanto 71”, not a group you would want watching your children, just sayin!
The impending apocalypse that is steaming hurriedly toward us will affect us for many years and may perhaps wipe out our generation.
The EU, Russia and Patriots all over America are warning us of the impending food apocalypse. Here is an example of this happening from 2010 and the same folks pushed the food and modernization act onto our doorsteps.

Let’s take a futuristic look and see the dilemma and the environment these useful idiots are creating for you and me. Let’s see where a few seemingly benign votes may take us.
Into the near future- Our ability to grow and produce our own food independent of the large corporations and the federal government is upon us. Our food chain is in some serious trouble. We will soon be looking for assistance from these large corporations and guess what they will provide it to you via your government with their own guidelines for distribution to the masses regardless of the harm it may cause you. You, in America, have not yet been without access to food but that is about to change.The food apocalypse is coming.
The narrow window of opportunity is closing to stop the likes of Monsanto, Syngenta and others take over our food supply as our elected representatives like Corker, Alexander and Fleischmann yield to the massive corporate dollars and the George Soros funded Monsanto.
Take our bee population for instance. We may not fully understand the process our bees have on our food supply, but we can agree that if they dont pollinate our food, we dont have food, your sustenance for a future generation.
Protection of Monsanto and Syngenta by our Legislators, the inevitable will surely happen.
The purposeful contamination of our food supply with the deliberate poisoning and destruction of 90% of feral (wild) bee population in the US has already died out, and up to 80% of domestic bees have died out too. Your food is not being pollinated and your ability to replant seeds for food is no longer there. Sterile seeds now dominate our seed supply and the heirloom seeds are safely tucked away and controlled.
The EU (European Union) Times is reporting “Undisputed evidence” that a class of neuro-active insecticides chemically related to nicotine, known as neonicotinoids, are destroying our planets bee population, and which if left unchecked could destroy our world’s ability to grow enough food to feed its population. Do I even need to interject the importance of bees in our survival and these large corporations that are killing them with these additives known as Monsanto insecticides
“So grave has this situation become, the European Commission (EC) is instituting a two-year precautionary ban (set to begin on 1 December 2013) on these“bee killing” pesticides following the lead of many other countries, all of whom had previously banned these most dangerous of genetically altered organisms from being used on the continent.”
Russia is warning Obama that Monsanto is playing a major role in our demise and then we offer them protection empowered by our own US Senators and Congressmen. The food apocalypse is pending!
This chilling scenario is much like a sci-fi movie that depicts the end of the world! But it’s not a movie, it is happening now, this week.
President Putin and Russia is telling Obama that the continued protection of global seed and plant bio-genetic giants Syngenta and Monsanto in the face of a growing “bee/food apocalypse” “will most certainly” lead to world war 3.
To date, the Obama regime is refusing to discuss the upcoming food/bee apocalypse with world leaders and Tennessee US Senators Corker, Alexander and US Congressman Chuck Fleischmann have not offered to rescind their vote on the “Monsanto Protection Act!”
There is undeniable “undisputed evidence” that a class of neuro-active insecticides chemically related to nicotine, known as neonicotinoids, are destroying our planets bee population, and if left unchecked could destroy our world’s ability to grow enough food to feed its population. See the Bees-Food apocalypse connection?
Two of the most feared neonicotinoids being banned are Actara and Cruiser made by the Swiss global bio-tech seed and pesticide giant Syngenta AG.
In assorted reports Syngenta, along with bio-tech giants Monsanto, Bayer, Dow and DuPont, now control nearly 100% of the global market for genetically modified pesticides, plants and seeds. Thus our demise and the start of the food apocalypse.
Syngenta, inside our little apocalyptic scenario was criminally charged in Germany for concealing the fact that its genetically modified corn killed cattle in 2012. Syngenta, of course settled a class-action lawsuit in the US for $105 million after it was discovered they had contaminated the drinking supply of some 52 million Americans in more than 2,000 water districts with its “gender-bending” herbicide Atrazine. Did I mention population control inside this story line?
The American Bird Conservancy (ABC) wherein has warned our whole planet is in danger, and as we can, in part, read:
“As part of a study on impacts from the world’s most widely used class of insecticides, nicotine-like chemicals called neonicotinoids, American Bird Conservancy (ABC) is warning us “It is clear that these chemicals have the potential to affect entire food chains, citing environmental concerns of these “chemicals” pouring into our food chain as a severe health risk.
Many concerned organizations are concluding that the neonicotinoids are lethal to our bees, birds and to the aquatic systems on which they depend.
One researcher has offered that “A single corn kernel coated with a neonicotinoid can kill a songbird, a tiny grain of wheat or canola treated with the oldest neonicotinoid — called imidacloprid — can fatally poison a bird. And as little as 1/10th of a neonicotinoid-coated corn seed per day during egg-laying season is all that is needed to affect reproduction.” We can only imagine what these insecticides will do to humans once we ingest food from our environment throughout the food chain engineered by Monsanto and Syngenta!
The levels already in our environment currently are enough to disrupt our food supply yet we continue to elect state and federal representatives that refuse to protect us from yes, a food apocalypse.
The Obama regime is currently facing legal challenges against the use of these awful chemicals.
I dont believe tightening EPA Standards is the complete answer and I really do not advocate for more federal meddling but they could at least protect us from these awful chemicals and hold the likes of Monsanto and Syngenta accountable for the release of these chemicals into our environment.
The EPAs lack of response to these calls for accountability speak volumes about whom their bedfellows may be.
In other headlines, the European Commission is taking the tyrranical step to make it illegal to “grow, reproduce or trade” any vegetable seeds that have not been “tested, approved and accepted” by a new EU bureaucracy named the “EU Plant Variety Agency.”
It’s called the Plant Reproductive Material Law, and it attempts to put the government in charge of virtually all plants and seeds. Home gardeners who grow their own plants from non-regulated seeds would be considered criminals under this law.” Sounds eerily like the US “Food and Safety Food Modernization Act” passed in 2010.
Think about this! The best solution is our worst nightmare, the federal government potentially taking over all food and seeds to prevent a Monsanto and Sygenta takeover!
Where does that leave us who like to eat and find it necessary for our own survival? Yes, with our hand outstretched begging for assistance from our federal government, to literally feed us.
The Obama regime, our elected reps are seemingly oblivious to the high speed bullet train in the form a food-bee apocalypse headed our way. But just ask a farmer, a beekeeper or expert what the status of our food supply is. They will tell you the truth.
While we wonder how these atrocious large companies get their power and influence, you need look no further than the Obama filled key posts filled with Monsanto people. They are abundant within this regime and a roll call would only bore you.
While Russia is making unprecedented discoveries of
Breast Cancer and organ failure links to Monsanto genetically modified corn, leading to it’s ban the US consumer unaware, continues to lap up corn like a hungry dog unfed.
In conclusion to my story telling time, the Obama regime, the Monsanto 71, Bob Corker, Lamar Alexander, Chuck Fleischmann and many other elected reps seemingly do not have the best interest of our country at hand.
Their obvious attempts with their sworn vote to destroy this country is beyond rational thinking.
The greenback has clouded their vision and distorted their values, even more amazing and perplexing to me is the amount of gratitude we still give these people despite what they are doing to this country.
