I agree that Lab Grown Meat is very unsafe and unhealthy. Frankly, I think that it should be banned entirely. Why are we always trying to make all our food artificial when the real, natural foods have been consumed safely for so long? There's really no need for GMO food other than another way for the government to control the people.

 @B8H3WWW from Texas  agreed…6mos6MO

Why would we eat something that’s been growing from a lab when you have the real thing? To grow lab meats i’m sure they use chemicals

Do you have any idea how many "chemicals" are involved in raising animals for meat?

 @B8GWCPTRepublicanagreed…6mos6MO

I agree with this statement because humans have been around for quite a while and have never needed to resort to eating lab grown meat before. Humans are omnivores and need to intake a balance of plants and meat, real meat. If God had intended for humans to eat fake meat he would have put a lab in the Garden of Eden, but he did not. And yes, as far as health concerns there are many, and surely more that we do not yet know about. Why put our bodies in danger for no apparent reason?

 @B8H2K58 from Washington  agreed…6mos6MO

No I dont agree I do not think we should have lab grown meat because of health risk and I would not want to eat fact lab meat.

 @B8G4H9TPeace and Freedom from New Jersey  agreed…6mos6MO

I very much agree with this comment because we as humans should eat the animals god provided for us and not some fake meat that is made in a lab.

 @B8GXV4T from Tennessee  agreed…6mos6MO

Why risk putting something in our bodies when we don’t know the long term effects. Especially when we were meant to eat real meat will living animals not lab grown.

Ah I see you are well informed on this then? What are some of the health risks? Why change what we have always done? Amazing point! This is the exact rhetoric that has always been used to support Slavery, exploitation, and bigotry of all kinds throughout history. Do you support slave ownership? It is, in fact, how we "always did things" as a species for the majority of our existence.

 @B8H5W8D from California  disagreed…6mos6MO

Lab grown meat is the future of humanity. Technology will evolve and at some point lab grown meat may be very beneficial to society. Additionally, it is more humane than eating animals (treated horribly) in factory farms.

Bernie Sanders Charges Ahead As Democrats Stall Out

Bernie Sanders launched a tour in red states like Iowa and Nebraska to rally opposition to Donald Trump’s agenda, drawing massive crowds—thousands in Omaha and overflow audiences in Iowa City.Unlike the Democratic Party’s muted response to Trump’s election, Sanders is actively challenging the administration’s plutocratic policies, focusing on billionaire influence and federal deregulation.In Iowa City, Sanders spoke to packed venues, delivering back-to-back speeches to accommodate attendees, a first in his political career, highlighting his enduring appeal.He criticized Trump’s inner circle, including billionaires Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg, who attended the inauguration, and warned of their control over federal agencies.Sanders galvanized the crowd with historical references—suffrage, slavery, independence—urging grassroots action to counter Trump’s planned $1 trillion tax cuts for the rich and cuts to programs like Medicaid.Attendees expressed frustration with Democratic leaders like Hakeem Jeffries, calling their opposition to Trump weak or nonexistent, while praising Sanders for providing direction.Sanders highlighted the slim Republican House majority (three seats), suggesting constituent pressure could sway vulnerable GOP members to block Trump’s reconciliation bill.Early signs show GOP walkbacks—like Trump’s false claim Medicaid won’t be cut—after outrage over federal grant pauses disrupted services, proving grassroots impact.The crowd, mostly liberal, cheered Sanders’ defense of reproductive rights and jeered Trump’s USAID cuts and Zelensky attacks, though some noted a shift in his base—younger Trump supporters absent.Sanders ended with Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, framing the fight as a timeless struggle against billionaire rule, inspiring attendees like Audrey to re-engage and Erin to find hope in solidarity.
