Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 11/16/2022 7:31:57 PM

Chicken made from real animal cells grown in laboratories could be available soon on grocery store shelves after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the products for the first time. The FDA on Wednesday officially approved UPSIDE Foods' chicken made from cells grown in bioreactors. Founded in 2015, manufacturer UPSIDE Foods, based in Berkeley, Calif., has raised hundreds of millions of dollars over the years, leading up to Wednesday's historic decision. "The agency evaluated the information submitted by UPSIDE Foods as part of a pre-market consultation for their food made from cultured chicken cells and has no further questions at this time about the firm's safety conclusion,"

As far as my hubby and I are concerned on the grocery store shelves is exactly where that “chicken” will roost.

White meat or dark? I am sure if it ever goes to market it will have to be posted as lab meat, not from a real chicken. I don't want any of it.

Why chicken? It's meat, and meat is murder, even grown in a lab. Why doesn't the FDA go all the way and approve the cultivation of lab grown bugs? (Chicken doesn't come with the chewy exoskeleton, but should.) It's for our own good, as is well known. The WEC said so. Bill Gates, too. Tonight the creepy centibillionaire, missing his buddy Jeffrey Epstein, is chowing down on a diet of worms, nutritious crickets, and creamy maggots. Not.

Lab grown chicken?? Why?? Cornish cross broilers, which are the standard meat bird in the US, mature in broiler houses in 8 weeks and offer up and 4-5 lb carcass. No growth hormones, no special anything. They are a good old fashioned breeding marvel we have utilized for decades. They are exceptionally efficient with feed to meat conversion too. And their manure is some of the best fertilizer out there. All this said since the food origin bill was overridden by Congress, your beef, chicken or pork could come from anywhere (China) and just be cut up and repackaged with "made in the USA" sticker slapped on the plastic wrap and the USDA and FDA are all cool with that. Find local sources for your meat folks!! Do it today. Where your food is grown and what food your food eats matters folks. I can not emphasize that enough.

The double-standard is atrocious. The Big Three (ABC, CBS, NBC) evening newscasts have almost completely buried Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock’s child support scandal, spending only 11 seconds on it since September 1. In stark contrast, the network evening newscasts (September 1 - November 16) flooded their airwaves (36 minutes, 21 seconds) with stories of women accusing his GOP opponent Herschel Walker of paying for abortions. That’s almost 200 times more coverage to the Walker story than the Warnock scandal.

Gun sales more than doubled in Oregon with Ballot Measure 114 (BM 114) pending, and Oregon State Police are struggling to keep up with the demand for background checks. KDRV reports that BM 114 passed by a margin of 50.9 percent to 49.1 percent, and will take effect December 8, 2022. In the weeks leading up to the November 8 elections, Breitbart News pointed to a Bearing Arms report that BM 114 was being bankrolled by out-of-state money. The measure requires a permit, which costs $65, to purchase a gun. It also bans “high capacity” magazines and requires law enforcement to maintain a database of gun permit applicants, among other things.

Apple TV has changed its mind about adapting fake-journalist Maggie Haberman’s Trump biography into a failed series. The left-wing Haberman, who is so dishonest she won a Pultizer for spreading the Russia Collusion Hoax, published her Trump biography, Confidence Man, earlier this year.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announced Thursday that she would retire from House leadership. She has earned a spot in history for breaking barriers, succeeding in what was formerly a man’s world, and advancing a left-wing agenda more effectively than nearly any individual in American politics. But the Breitbart Business Digest believes Pelosi’s career ought to be defined in a different way: She is the most infamous—and one of the most successful—stock traders of all time. Her personal wealth has soared to nine figures and beyond since the financial collapse of 2008. This is largely attributed to stock trades made by her husband, Paul;

Speaking on Fox News’s “The Ingraham Angle” late Wednesday, eponymous host Laura Ingraham offered a few tips on which direction he should tread. “Republicans want results and they also want inspiring leadership — a blueprint for the future that is clearly articulated and reflective of the views of a majority of Republican voters. And we’re also looking for fighters who fight as hard as the left, always united against the opposition’s agenda,” she said. With that said, she continued,

California is projected to have a deficit after holding onto a budget surplus for the past several years. The state is expected to have a $25 billion deficit in the next fiscal year, according to the state legislature’s nonpartisan fiscal experts. The Legislative Analyst’s Office released its report on Wednesday, emphasizing the upcoming $25 billion deficit, which they say is mostly due to “lower revenue estimates.” The state’s last budget was $308 billion with a $97 billion surplus, and the year prior to that, the budget was $263 billion with a $76 billion surplus.

Nancy Pelosi, who announced she would not continue as the Democratic Party’s leader in the House of Representatives, has been a great legislator. You’d have to be to last for 19 years at the top of the Democratic legislative greasy pole. That doesn’t mean she has been a great font of ideas, a great visionary, or a great leader of the American people. She has been none of those things. Her own contributions to this country on matters of policy, rather than shepherding or opposing bills in the House, have been negligible. She was impotent when it came to dealing with an anti-Semitic outbreak in her caucus in 2019, for example.

The first female speaker added that she will continue to represent the people in San Francisco in the House. The California lawmaker will relinquish her position as head of the Democratic caucus, which she’s held for 19 years, to make way for a “new generation to lead.” With her leadership still in high demand in her party, Pelosi will likely help manage her successor’s transition

The reported exodus threw Twitter into more turmoil and came as staffers at the social media giant were given a 5 p.m. Thursday deadline to sign onto Musk’s workplace pledge. The resignations were gleaned from internal Twitter communications, including a poll where 42% of 180 workers surveyed Thursday said they were “Taking the exit option, I’m free,” Reuters reported.

U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland on Friday named former federal prosecutor Jack Smith as special counsel for two ongoing criminal investigations by the Department of Justice of former President Donald Trump.   Smith’s appointment came three days after Trump, a Republican, announced plans to run for president in 2024.   Trump’s move directly led to Garland’s decison to appoint a special counsel, who will recommend whether criminal charges should be lodged against the ex-president. The attorney general was appointed by Biden, a Democrat who defeated Trump in his 2020 re-election bid. Biden could again face Trump again in the 2024 election. CORRECTION*

Anger of some Republican voters toward the former president runs hot and may cost him the nomination in 2024. Yet it is also the case that Trump has been pronounced politically dead many times in the past, and in most of those cases the cause for the premature Code Blue calls has been his big fat mouth. He has never been able to control his impulses, and has never been a nice guy. This has not stopped his ability to
