DeSantis Bans Lab-Grown Meat


Posted originally on May 6, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Now more than ever it is the duty of the state, not the federal government, to protect its citizens. Ron DeSantis signed a new bill in an effort to save Florida’s agriculture and cattle industry, and possibly a boost to the leisure and hospitality sector as well. S.B. 1084 will prohibit companies attempting to “manufacture for sale, sell, hold or offer for sale, or distribute” lab-grown meat throughout Florida.

US food standards are already extremely low as the USDA wants to keep you sick. Washington passed a bill in 2023 permitting companies to supply Americans with fully lab-grown “meat” products. The meat is made from pre-cancerous animal cells as they’re the most likely to replicate. They then shape this lab-grown unknown product into whatever shape they need so that it looks like real meat.

This is indeed part of the ESG agenda. Schwab and his World Economic Forum has pushed for the consumption of bugs as a viable protein option. Domesticated cattle have been destroying the climate, in their eyes, as it produces too much CO2. Major food producers like Tyson have also stated that they would begin using insects in their food, in addition to efforts to push lab-grown meat. Best of all, the FDA is currently NOT REQUIRED to label whether the meat is derived from an animal. The Food Safety and Inspection Service has not determined how they will label these products; therefore, you may be eating pre-cancerous fake meat cells without your knowledge in the near future.

Italy has passed a similar ban on lab-grown meat. While Florida is not known for its cuisine, this is a tourist destination and a state that is dependent (growing less dependent) on tourism. Restaurants on a federal level need not report what they are serving the consumer. This ban benefits not only Florida farmers and consumers but also the overall economy.

Some are complaining that the consumer should have the right to choose and that if there is demand, DeSantis should not prohibit companies from entering that new field. The problem becomes the underlying agenda to force the public to ingest unknown substances. No one knows the health consequences of lab-grown meat on public health. They are simply pushing out this lab-grown method to meet ESG rubrics and climate change standards at the expense of the population.

The cultivated fake meat industry was valued at around $247 million in 2022 and it is expected to spike to $25 billion by 2030 – right on time for Agenda 2030.

Again, state rights are now essential for maintaining our freedoms. The federal government has been bought and paid for by the globalists and has not acted in the interest of the American public in four years. Other states are looking to follow this ban as red and blue states become further distinguishable by rule of law, or lack thereof.

The Right to Grow Food

Republican Representative Thomas Massie is presenting an amendment to the US Constitution that would ensure Americans have the legal right to grow and distribute their own food.

“The right of the people to grow food and purchase food from the source of their choice shall not be infringed, and Congress shall make no law regulating the production and distribution of food products which do not move across state lines.”

“The food or farm freedom movement is really bipartisan,” Massie said. “Many consumers care not only about the safety of their food but also how it was raised. Neither party has a monopoly on healthiness, if you will, and in general this food is healthier.”

There have been calls to ban private gardening in the name of climate change. The World Economic Forum has already begun producing articles and planting the seed that the public should begin to accept the idea that food cannot be grown by individuals.

UK Empty Food Shelves

The elites want complete control over our food supply. They have already implemented numerous regulations to prevent people from hunting and fishing. Now, they demand that we peasants cease gardening at home and use studies they are funding as examples.

They’ve banned the people from producing their own food under countless Communist regimes, and it ALWAYS leads to famine. Look at North Korea, for example, where private citizens are barred from harvesting their own food and must entirely rely on the government for sustenance. Despite having the same genetics, people in South Korea are now taller and larger than their northern brothers and sisters as a direct result of malnutrition.

Maine passed a law on November 3, 2021, protecting the right to a “natural, inherent, and unalienable right to food, including the right to save and exchange seeds and the right to grow, raise, harvest, produce, and consume the food of their own choosing for their own nourishment, sustenance, bodily health, and well-being, as long as an individual does not commit trespassing, theft, poaching, or other abuses of private property rights, public lands, or natural resources in the harvesting, production, or acquisition of food.

Maine’s amendment was the first of its kind in America. The Maine Dairy Industry Association and the Maine Farm Bureau protested the measure under the pretense of food safety. As RFK recently said, every single restriction on our freedom has happened under the pretense of public safety.

Have you ever wondered why the government has prohibited cities from growing trees that naturally produce fruit? We have the ability to feed the masses but choose not to do so. City developers banned such trees for a reason.

People should absolutely have the right to live off the Earth. History has shown us time and time again what happens when the government controls the food supply.

German Farm Protests Continue – New Shift to Add Blockades of Warehouse and Distribution Centers

The German farmer protests are strategic.   The reality that food doesn’t originate in a grocery store is an odd concept for many who do not pay attention.  The latest strategic move by the farmers aims to highlight the issue.

With an alliance of truckers supporting the farmers, the German farmers have now begun short-term blockades of warehouse and distribution centers. The farmers are following and disrupting the general supply chain, leading to delivery issues upon the downstream retail stores that carry their products.

GERMANY –  In Germany, farmers block the warehouses of retailers Aldi, Amazon and Lidl. This is reported by the telegram channel “Militarist”.

As the media reported, the president of the Bavarian Farmers’ Association Gunther Felsner said that regional organizations representing the interests of farmers want to enter into dialogue with representatives of the federal government this week. According to the head of the association, if the authorities do not agree to concessions, nationwide protests will continue.

The FRG government should be interested in improving the situation, the lack of dialogue between the Cabinet and farmers harms all participants. This was stated, in turn, to the newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung, German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.

Recall, despite the budget deficit, the German government ordered for themselves luxury helicopters for 200 million euros, wrote the day before the telegram channel “Bild in Russian”. (read more)

This approach follows the continued use of farm tractors to block major roads and transportation arteries around Germany.   The various cross border and national truckers support the farmers because the overall issues, particularly the diesel prices and taxes therein, are important to the economic livelihood of both.

It is particularly noteworthy that this specific set of protests is happening in Germany, the largest economy inside the EU bloc.  Germany is the epicenter of the EU assembly, and Germany has abandoned their own currency in favor of the €uro.  As a result, Germany -more than any other nation- is ‘all-in’ on the globalist agenda, and confrontation with the German government is akin to direct confrontation with the leadership in Brussels.

Western media are avoiding all reporting on the events because they do not want to fuel public awareness.

If the German farm protests are successful, it will be a major victory for the larger EU middle and working-class who support them.  The assembly of government interests represented by Germany, Brussels and the corporations in the World Economic Forum (the Build Back Better group) are essentially all targets of these protests even though the protests are happening in one nation.  This is a systemic pushback against the entire globalist agenda.

To the German farmers who have watched similar action from Holland, Ireland and beyond, this is a zero-sum contest.  They are all-in and not open to negotiating a series of slower terms for their eventual demise.

“Too much is too much – enough is enough” – this is the motto under which thousands of farmers are currently taking part in demonstrations and protests throughout Germany. Why are the farmers taking to the streets? The trigger is the planned changes to the tax on agricultural diesel, but this announcement by the federal government is not the only reason for the frustration of the farmers, it only brings the barrel to overflowing. It’s about more and more bureaucracy and requirements, about less and less planning security and appreciation. All this stinks the farmers enormously. That’s why they roll into the city centre with their tractors, paralyze traffic in parts and hope for their actions not only for understanding, but also for the sympathy of consumers. The message from the farmers: without us farmers, there would be no food, at least not domestic food.

FL Lawmaker Proposes Ban on Lab-Grown Meat

A Florida Republican lawmaker has introduced a bill, known as House Bill 435, aimed at criminalizing the sale and distribution of lab-grown meat in the state. The bill seeks to protect the cattle and farming industries by making it unlawful to manufacture, sell, hold, or offer for sale any meat or food product produced from cultured animal cells. State Rep. Tyler Sirois, the bill’s sponsor, views lab-grown meat as an “affront to nature and creation” and part of the “ESG agenda.” The proposed legislation has sparked discussions about the potential impact of lab-grown meat on traditional meat industries and the broader implications for the state’s economy.

This is indeed part of the ESG agenda. Schwab and his World Economic Forum has pushed for the consumption of bugs as a viable protein option. Domesticated cattle is destroying the climate, in their eyes. Bill Gates has purchased countless acres of farmland in America while simultaneously opening cricket harvesting farms with the intention of slipping that ingredient into the foods we eat. Major food producers like Tyson have also stated that they would begin using insects in their food.

Now, this bill is specifically regarding lab-grown “meat” and not insects. I reported in June that the US government gave the green seal of approval for the production of artificial meat. The cultivated fake meat industry was valued at around $247 million in 2022 and it is expected to spike to $25 billion by 2030 – right on time for Agenda 2030. Worse, the US government has not said how they will classify this fake meat or whether consumers will know if what they are eating is made in a laboratory. We need more lawmakers like Sirois who are willing to stand up to the globalists and protect the people.
