I wrote both my senators weeks ago - and asked them not only to confirm RFK, but also to rally their colleagues. Both signaled their support for RFK, and one enthusiastically promised to do what I asked. He also indicated that media reports of dissention were overblown, and that he was fairly confident all of Trump's picks would go through.

Just another tidbit to ponder - all that synthetic, plastic-based, cheap clothing? The polyester, nylon, and acrylic? Every time you wash and dry, "fiber" breakdown, aka as microplastic, enters the water and air.

According to those statistics, teabags dwarf all other sources by numerous orders of magnitude. A few years ago for about few months I was drinking sarsaparilla from Mexico or Central America sources, which has a strong vanilla like flavor, until I got tired of it. Previously I had tried Kunlun Snow Chrysanthemum Flower Tea (Snow Daisy) - Xue Ju Hua Cha but I got tired of that also. At least that was packaged loose in resealable plastic bags and I used a metal infuser. Although that variety is grown in China, it is really a species native to America, Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt.

They are doing great work. Thanks for that link.

Tamara Rubin, Lead Safe Mama, has expanded her product testing to now include foods. It's appalling what is being uncovered in our food supply - and not just food but supplements also. Unsafe levels of lead and/or Cadmium and/or arsenic and/or mercury are showing up in almost everything.
