Here is the message i sent to CBS News (Twitter handle: @CBS8), on August 8, 2011.

On 3 August 2011, Rawesome Foods, a private food buyers club in Venice, CA was subjected to a SWAT-style armed raid conducted by the FDA assisted by 2 or 3 other government agencies. Although the reason for the raid was conspiracy to sell raw milk and cheese, authorities confiscated not just dairy, but also mangoes, watermelons, computers and cash - in fact, they completely cleaned out the whole place. The news about this has been widely disseminated through Twitter and various other news sources.

I watch CBS News every evening at 6 and 11 o'clock, thinking of CBS as a reliable and unbiased source. So, it has been a big surprise to me to not have heard a single word on CBS about this raid since it took place. I have, however, seen CBS stories about a missing dog and other relatively minor events.

So, a couple of questions come to mind, like:

Recently, while researching material for the new No-GMOs section of the Timos site, I have learned a lot about Monsatan. One of the things I have noticed is their unique interpretation of certains words, acronyms and phrases in the English language. Following are a few of the definitions I have picked up.

FDA Promotes Unsafe Milk Due to Industry Pressure

I browse news about the FDA and Big Pharma a couple of times a week; I don't recall a single one of those browsing sessions not yielding one or more items about the crimes that these two - the FDA and Big Pharma - continue to commit. Here is one such item that particularly pissed me off, published less that a week ago – February 8, 2009. You can read the whole item here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jeffrey-smith/fda-promotes-unsafe-milk_b_184886.html.

The title of this post, same as the title of the news item, says it all. I have been writing – on this blog and in my timos web site – about the scariest, most powerful drug cartel in the world, the USA Drug Cartel, not only the biggest and richest one but the best protected one, thanks to the FDA gang. This alliance between the FDA and Big Pharma makes the Italian Mafia look like a bunch of choir boys and girls.

I was surprised a few days ago when I was randomly browsing a series of restaurant menus and seeing, in more than one of them, meat items named "Niman Ranch [some-kind-of meat]".

Apparently, some chefs don't even get out of the kitchen to read the paper or otherwise learn the news. Bill Niman is no longer part of the company, which has now changed the feeding protocols to allow the use of antimicrobials and is moving the cattle to commercial feedlots for finishing – the Niman Ranch feedlot has been sold. Here is a recent article.

Too bad. Those menus now might as well read "Safeway flatiron" or "McDonalds rib eye".

Sad.

A while ago, I "speed-read" a friend's copy of Michael Pollan's The Omnivore's Dilemma, but got busy and did not look at it again until three days ago. Now, I am reading it word by word and I'm 2/3 of the way done.

This book should be required reading in all the schools. Do you eat? If so, you MUST read it if you haven't already.

... and keeps expanding business by perpetrating more crimes against Americans.

The Big Pharma disease mongers, not happy with being able to sell anti-depressants for use on pets, recently obtained approval from their partner in crime – the FDA, another bunch that should be behind bars – to promote the use of cholesterol-lowering statin drugs for use by children age 8 and up.
But wait, there's more: the American Academy of Pediatrics Committee has announced that infants as young as TWO years old need to be screened for high cholesterol!

Read these facts on my web site and try not to toss your cookies: http://www.timos.com/timos/timoCorner/timoArticle.cfm?locale=en_US&itemID=78.

Something else, curious, to say the least: just a few days ago, I took my granddaughter to a place called Rady Children's Hospital in San Diego. Imagine my surprise when, looking to get a cup of coffee, I am directed to the food concession for this hospital for children, which turns out to be part of America's biggest cholesterol palace – a McDonald's. Makes one wonder who gets a referral fee from whom.

This should be enough to shut down several government agencies, including but not limited to the EPA, the FDA, the USDA, and start over.

The Letter Written in the Year 2070 has been circulating since 2002, when it was first published. I just learned about it by chance, a couple of weeks ago, when someone emailed it to me. But I couldn't find an English version anywhere, so I did a translation.

This, you MUST see – and spread it around as much as possible. Just go to this page on my web site.

Some may think it's bullshit or a scare tactic. But it's a possibility. Don't miss it.
