June 16, 20215 yr That there is little to be gained by going, does not preclude it being the smarter move.

June 16, 20215 yr she should go and that's really not even debatable the problem is not being solved by doing nothing. The "border Czar" that hasn't been to the border. C'mon guys.

Sure they will. But she certainly doesn't appear to be doing a great job with this border situation. I've never been a fan of Kamala, and she's not earning herself any fans with this. If she was a good politician she'd at least look like she's doing something. Going to the border, being on the ground, understanding the challenges (or at least pretending to) would be helpful. Yeah, the right is going to come up with something, but she also can objectively be doing a bad job.

I'm just saying that making one trip to the border wouldn't magically fix anything nor would it make her a better VP.

GMOs are basically the agricultural field's version of vaccines. Proven safe, yet still doubted by many because they sound scarier than they actually are.

Yep, pesticides are objectively toxic in large enough doses, but the majority found on produce are still trace amounts that can be easily washed off. But there's nothing objectively toxic about GMO's.

Pretty easy problem to solve…

My brother-in-law is an organic farmer and really weird about what he eats. I’m fairly certain he only shops at Trader Joe’s. I eat pretty much anything though. I like any and all food. Lol
