No Comments on FDA limits toxic lead in some baby foods

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Monday set maximum levels for lead in baby foods like jarred fruits and vegetables, yogurts and dry cereal, part of an effort to cut young kids’ exposure to the toxic metal that causes developmental and neurological problems.

The agency issued final guidance that it estimated could reduce lead exposure from processed baby foods by about 20% to 30%. The limits are voluntary, not mandatory, for food manufacturers, but they allow the FDA to take enforcement action if foods exceed the levels.

It’s part of the FDA’s ongoing effort to “reduce dietary exposure to contaminants, including lead, in foods to as low as possible over time, while maintaining access to nutritious foods,” the agency said in a statement.

Consumer advocates, who have long sought limits on lead in children’s foods, welcomed the guidance first proposed two years ago, but said it didn’t go far enough.

“FDA’s actions today are a step forward and will help protect children,” said Thomas Galligan, a scientist with the Center for Science in the Public Interest. “However, the agency took too long to act and ignored important public input that could have strengthened these standards.”

The new limits on lead for children younger than 2 don’t cover grain-based snacks like puffs and teething biscuits, which some research has shown contain higher levels of lead. And they don’t limit other metals such as cadmium that have been detected in baby foods.

Brian Ronholm, director of food policy for Consumer Reports, called the limits “virtually meaningless because they’re based more on industry feasibility and not on what would best protect public health.”

A spokesperson for baby food maker Gerber said the company’s products meet the limits.

There’s no safe level of lead exposure for children, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The metal causes “well-documented…

Meet The Queer Therapists: Decoding Far-Left Ideology in Therapy Collectives

No Comments on Meet The Queer Therapists: Decoding Far-Left Ideology in Therapy Collectives

I provide you with exclusive investigative reporting about the woke left that you won’t find anywhere else.

Step into the mind of the far-left and uncover how they define their terms, shape their narratives, and influence today’s most radical movements.

Value my work? Support it today and join the fight to expose the truth.

We first met Nyx Melody (they/fae pronouns) in November 2023, when I uncovered that this queer psychotherapist was conducting training sessions on treating children—sessions that counted for official continuing education credits for therapists, fully sanctioned by the state of New York.

Recently, I caught up with Nyx and discovered fae is part of a therapy collective that’s unapologetically queer and proudly ideological.

Hello Q’Lective.

Sometimes, the most effective way to understand far-left language and ideas is to see how they manifest in real-world settings.

In this piece, we’ll take a deep dive into Q’Lective’s website, dissecting its language and ideas to expose the ideological machinery at play. Think of it as your anti-indoctrination toolkit—a guide to spotting this stuff when it inevitably creeps into your own corner of the world.

Q’Lective “a collective of queer, gender-expansive and neurodivergent therapists working directly with our communities in occupied Lenapehoking (New York City).”

Collective: A group organized around shared goals or interests, often used in far-left contexts to signal communal ownership, decision-making, and rejection of hierarchical structures.

Queer: More than just an identity, “queer” has become a far-left political ideology aiming to dismantle capitalism, abolish the gender binary, and dissolve the nuclear family.

Gender Expansive: A catch-all term for identities that reject the traditional binary of male and female, making room for an infinite…

Florence A. Brennan

Florence A. Brennan OBITUARY

Florence A. Brennan, 99, of McLean, VA, passed away Sunday January 5, 2025.

Born January 27, 1925, in Nanticoke, she was a daughter of the late Zigmond and Josephine Savitski Dzwileski. Zigmond was well-known in Nanticoke having been the long-time President of local UMWA and then the City Sealer of Weights and Measures.

Florence, the eldest of two daughters, was a graduate of Nanticoke High School and then graduated from the Wilkes Barre School of Business.

In 1950, she wed James T. Brennan, Esq. of Scranton. Following James graduation from Yale, she moved with him to Washington, D.C. where he began his career at the Federal Communications Commission handling their appeals.

The couple then moved to Arlington, VA where they raised two children, Stevenne and Brian. There, Florence also began working for the National Army Intelligence Agency at Arlington Hall Station as Chief Protocol Officer for the Agency’s General. She remained in that position until her retirement in the 1980s. Subsequently, she moved to Mclean, VA, living very near her sister, Marian, and many beloved friends, including John (Jack) McMahon.

DORCHESTER COUNTY, Md. – Chief Donna Abbott is the first female chief in Maryland. She heads the ‘Nause-Waiwash Band of Indians,’ representing the people of Nanticoke and Choptank reservations.

Abbott is fighting for the protection and preservation of the tribe’s ancestral lands. At first, she didn’t want to take the role of chief, but realized she had the opportunity to lead forth change.
“I didn’t want the work that Chief Winterhawk, my uncle LU Abbott, and Gilbert Robbins put into organizing this organization to go to waste. It had been a lot of blood, sweat, and tears put into it.”

According to the official Nause-Waiwash website, there are around 300 descendants of the original Nanticoke and Choptank Indians. Chief Abbott plans to educate community members about their Indian heritage.

“There are probably 2 or 3 generations that were taught it was disgraceful to acknowledge your Native American history, and who you were, so they didn’t teach it to their children.”

Due to this, she believes local Indigenous history should be part of Maryland’s public school curriculum. “Wicomico, Worcester, Somerset, and Dorchester, we all got together with those government agencies, and they have developed this. I want to call it a prototype because there is no other program like this, and we hope other places will adopt this program.”

Chief Abbott and ‘Nause-Waiwash Band of Indians’ will continue to preserve Indian culture, whether with local tribes or state officials. “We all have the same goal; we’re all trying to preserve what brief history we have left, and if we’re all after the same thing, then why not build that relationship and work together to do it.”
