Update. "Supreme Court ruling blocks thousands of lawsuits against the maker of #Roundup weedkiller."
https://apnews.com/article/supreme-court-roundup-monsanto-a7f054d80919f98bdfc5190013a8f6f1

The court ruled for #Monsanto because the #EPA said Roundup (#glyphosate) was harmless, not because the 𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 said it was harmless. There's good evidence that that the EPA decision was flawed, if not cynical. It relied on studies written mostly by Monsanto staffers and the lead article has been retracted.

Here's the #SCOTUS decision itself.

The upside: The #RepublicanSchism will deepen. Some #MAGA voters side with the Trump EPA friendliness to corporate polluters. Others (including #RFKJr when he could speak freely) side with #MAHA opposition to glyphosate.

The downside: More people will die from this poison.

Supreme Court blocks Roundup cancer lawsuits against Bayer

The Supreme Court has sided with the maker of Roundup weedkiller, blocking thousands of lawsuits alleging it failed to warn users the product could cause cancer. The decision on Thursday is a victory for the Trump administration but could complicate relations with allies who want to limit pesticide use. The court ruled that federal regulations finding a cancer link unlikely protect the company from state lawsuits. Roundup manufacturer Bayer disputes the cancer claims but has set aside billions of dollars to settle cases. Bayer says the ruling is good for science and farmers. Lawyers for some residents pursuing cases say the ruling “wrongly slams the courthouse door on Americans sickened by pesticides.”

AP News

Sen #RonWyden of Oregon wrote in a letter Wednesday to #US Health Secretary #RFKJr that he had “credible information” that the #Trump admin had a list of more than 500 #immigrant #children it was targeting for a fast-track removal process & that the department was racing to act in days. He warned that the admin was abdicating “core humanitarian & child welfare mandates” & demanded an immediate halt to any plans to remove the children.

“In this study, using national data on #HPV vaccination uptake between 2008–09 and 2017–18 and mortality data for England from 2001 to 2024, we found a substantial reduction in cervical cancer mortality in women aged 20–29 years that was associated with high uptake of HPV vaccination.”

#Gardasil

Meanwhile #RFKjr has lied repeatedly about Gardasil while not mentioning his conflicts of interest.

Everyone, please consider the implications here. The #CDC, supported by our U.S. tax dollars, refused to publish a perfectly valid study -- now published by a highly respected journal -- because it conflicted with #RFKJr's #antivax views. #ImpeachRFKJr

RFK Jr.'s podcast is an anecdote factory with no scientific relevance | Defend Public Health

Elizabeth Jacobs, PhD, shares her thoughts on Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s science-deficient podcast.

"RFK Jr🚨encouraged a third-party candidate to make deal + exit a contested Iowa congressional race & help GOP win the seat.

“I can’t go into specifics because there’s legal prohibitions about that,” RFK Jr said,🚨per audio we obtained.

Kennedy’s phone call was🚨at least his second to an IA congressional candidate this month, acc to Libertarian politicians in the state."

RFK Jr. urged Iowa candidate to make deal to help GOP win House seat, per audio recording

The health secretary urged Iowa Libertarian candidates to drop out of key races to help Republicans keep control of Congress, according to interviews and a recording obtained by The Post. The effort highlights mounting GOP anxiety over the battle for the House.

@SeanCasten Cassidy has been on the wrong side of every issue his entire political career. He is a physician who confirmed #RFKjr. Why would you promote him? Because he tripped into not being a bastard once? After it didnt matter?
