“I was very clear with the president about my own displeasure with the executive order,” Kennedy told Schatz. “The president felt it was necessary for national security reasons.”
The health secretary said the idea for the executive order came from the Pentagon, and the administration regards the issue as one that Trump inherited—not created.
The overwhelming majority of American agriculture relies on glyphosate-based herbicides, and “100 percent of that is coming from China,” Kennedy said.
“You have an adversary that could literally shut down the American food supply overnight,” he testified. “[Trump’s] executive order does not increase the use of glyphosate. All it says is, as long as we’re dependent on it, we’re going to make it here.”
In Kennedy’s X post, he stated that cross-agency steps are being taken to shift away from harmful agricultural practices. The health secretary reaffirmed this goal to lawmakers at the April 21 hearing.
Because the Chinese can put just about anything harmful to humans and no one would be the wiser...IN OTHER WORDS, WE MAKE THE DAMN STUFF HERE IN THE UNITED STATES AND NOT RELY ON CHINA!!!!!!!

Huh. What is the likelihood the glyphosate we produce here is somehow different or more "safe"?
