TDT: Chinese Influence Over American Agriculture Continues
Also: Bird-flu madness, gratitude and science, plus more!
I abhor the notion of any genetically-engineered foods - of any kind, from any source - and I trust not the transnational companies engaging this ‘industry.’ Still, if they are going to drive us down this path anyhow, it is criminal that our government agencies are favoring Chinese companies over American-based firms.
My question is… why?
Welcome BACK for the relaunch of the Three-Dot Tablet [TDT], the periodic news-digest of The Stone Age.
Once a weekly publication, from this point forward - at least through November - the TDT will be a ‘drop as I am able’ post. This is in part due to the circumstances surrounding news-distribution (with certain topics getting all the attention), along with my growing aversion to eX-Twitter (where I normally find stories). So for now this will be a periodic drop - we’ll see where it goes after the election.
As for those who are new to the TDT? Here I seek out the headlines others may not be covering (or not covering well), and - with healthy doses of passion and brevity, common sense and occasional humor - discuss them with raw, unfiltered commentary.
Okay, enough yammering - let's get to it…
[Please note: This edition was finished on Friday, one day before the terrible events in Butler, PA; as such, there is no mention of that day here. To read my assessment, which was written yesterday, click HERE.]

Moolenaar, Lawmakers Seek Answers After USDA Approves Chinese Genetically Engineered Soybeans
Select Committee On The CCP [Press Release]
You know, I think maybe a question or two on this matter is justified…
Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party wrote to Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack, inquiring why the U.S. Department of Agriculture greenlit a Chinese agricultural biotech company with close links to the Chinese government operating in the United States.
The press-release goes on to note that Qi Biodesign, the Chinese company (with close ties to China’s government [PRC]) that makes genetically-engineered soybean seeds, was prioritized for approval ahead of many American agricultural companies.
I am not for a moment advocating for the tech in of itself; indeed, I abhor the notion of any genetically-engineered foods - of any kind, from any source - and I trust not the transnational companies engaging this ‘industry.’ Still, if they are going to drive us down this path anyhow, it is criminal that our government agencies are favoring Chinese companies over American-based firms.
My question is… why? Is it to prevent the oversight that an American company might face while cooking up these Frankenfoods? And - if true - what is store for the American consumer because of it?
Which brings up another question: Why on Earth should we trust any bio-tech tied to the PRC? This is, after all, the same entity which (allegedly) ‘engineered’ a little ‘virus’ at a lab in Wuhan. You may have heard of it - COVID-19?
So yes, I think questions on this matter are most definitely justified.
One has to wonder, of course, if we will ever get answers. The last few decades suggests it is unlikely, but I respect Moolenaar and his (largely bipartisan) committee for making the effort.
Then again, with the recent SCOTUS decision on the ‘Chevron Doctrine,’ these agencies are going to be facing more intense scrutiny. While the USDA may not technically fall under the Chevron ruling, it does open the door for additional challenges to the dictatorial powers any of these unelected bureaucrats wield.
So perhaps there is hope for answers, slim as it may be. Since these bio-beans are coming - as mentioned above - from the same land which gave us COVID-19? We deserve to know the truth.
Oh, and what else comes from China? The (alleged) chicken influenza…

In a potential outbreak, is bird flu testing available for humans?
Fox News
The ramping up of the fowl-flu scare continues to grow…
Several people have tested positive for bird flu in the U.S., raising questions about the availability of tests in the event of a potential outbreak.
It’s five individuals with positive tests, folks. The ‘several’ is five. Out of over 330 MILLION Americans… five.
Terrifying, I know.
While I acknowledge there will be those who embrace whatever manipulations these globalist media orgs filter through their propaganda apparatuses, I cannot imagine - after the recent psyop we ALL just endured - that these terror-tactics will influence the majority, in any capacity.
I mean really - how gullible can the overall masses be? [Wait - perhaps I don’t want an answer to that question.]
But hey, if you are one of the frightened? Fret not, because DC is about to hook you up! Our Federal Authority has signed a contract with Moderna, for an mRNA bird flu ‘vaccine’… a $176 million contract, no less.
Whew, THAT is a relief! Right!?
In all seriousness, they are not yet done with trying to impale us all with their unnatural bio-toxins, my friends - and I fear they never will be. At least Pfizer isn’t mentioned for once, so I suppose we can take comfo--
Oh, hey…

Pfizer advances once-daily weight-loss pill in ongoing study
Fox Business
At some point they are going to have to conjure up a pill to save us… from all of their pills. I mean - at this point in the madness - such ridiculously circular logic would actually make sense to me…
On Thursday [July 10], Pfizer announced plans to advance its weight-loss pill after "encouraging" results from an early-stage study. The pharmaceutical giant is trying to tap into the highly lucrative market for obesity drugs currently dominated by the likes of Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk.
Okay, in the interest of compassion, I cannot imagine what life must be like for those who suffer from genetically-driven obesity. While I am in no way a picture of fitness, and have at times pushed the envelope of a tolerable BMI, my weight issues have been my own fault. A garbage diet, combined with sedentary lifestyle, were at the root of my obesity, and I have been working hard to correct those.
So no, if you are dealing with the aforementioned genetic challenges I am in no position to suggest, “Do this!” or “Don’t do that!” because again, I am not in your shoes.
However, if you are like me, one whose weight concerns are driven by life choices? The way I see it (opinion only - make sure to check the ‘Disclaimer’ at the end of this newsletter) there is no magical diet pill, or magical-anything pill.
As such, I have stopped trusting these Pharma-Prophets (profits?) for a quick fix on anything. Whether it be obesity, or mental health, or high-blood pressure, I have actively sought Natural solutions to their pill-based regimens, and so far… I am still here, and getting better each day.
And even if for some reason that changes tomorrow, and I slip this mortal coil? At least I lived free of them and their poisonous rot, and from my perspective that is a good way to live… a good way to die.
Of course, only you can make your own decisions, based on your own unique situations. There is one thing, however, which is absolute with every person, in every circumstance: No matter the issue, you still have to put in the work.
Be the ailment physical, mental, or spiritual, if you are unwilling to do said-work, you will never get better… never heal. No prescription - no doctors - will be able to help you without it.
And these days, depending on their educational background? Especially ‘doctors’…

Duke Medical School claims 'perfectionism,' 'individualism', and 'timeliness' are tools of 'white supremacy'
The Post Millennial
These people could be performing surgery on you or your loved-ones some day; at minimum, they will be prescribing your jabs and pills.
Think about that…
Duke University Medical School has asserted that certain traits, including “timeliness,” “perfectionism,” and “individualism,” are components of what it describes as “white supremacy culture.” These claims were outlined in a 2021 plan titled "Dismantling Racism and Advancing Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the School of Medicine."
These traits - which are critical for anyone to perform well in a health-related field - are being actively discouraged, because…
*checks notes
… ‘white supremacy culture?’
I have spoken on these pages many times about the Globalist parasites who have infiltrated the halls of academia. Poisoning the minds of our future with ruinous doctrines, their aim is rip apart our culture, our way of life, and now - literally - our very bodies. This is not about any of the canned excuses upon which they rely, and it never has been - it is about eviscerating the very core of Natural existence… from within.
Sometimes, however? They goof up and cop to something which is real…
And Finally…
Gratitude May Help You Live Longer, Scientists Discover
Science Alert
They ‘discovered’ it…
Count your blessings, be thankful for what you have, and always look on the bright side: A new study of just under 50,000 older nurses in the US suggests that an attitude of gratitude is linked to extra years at the end of your life.
Those of a spiritual bent have been saying this very thing for decades… centuries… hell, millennia!… and these same ‘scientists’ have ridiculed them (us!) mercilessly. But now that their ‘science’ has verified it, it is suddenly a ‘discovery.’
The hubris is breathtaking.
With that noted, I must admit it is refreshing to get validation, bereft of self-awareness though it may be. It also serves to remind us that spiritual living - of which ‘gratitude’ plays a huge role - really can make a difference in one’s life, no matter what attacks ‘science’ deploys.
As time goes on, they will undoubtedly ‘discover’ more examples of how a healthy spirit is vital for maintaining a healthy vessel. So - as can oft happen - when those in your sphere demean or ridicule you for seeking the pathways of Providence and Nature?
Remain resolute, be of good cheer, and gently tell them to be patient… as science catches up to what you - what we - already know…
And that is all for this edition of the Three-Dot Tablet. Enjoy the moment, and as always… stay frosty!

It's a small world.
Just as I think a test for merit should discriminate, I also expect a surgeon to practice timeliness and perfectionism. As for genetically modified substances, no matter who engineers them, call them "Doof" and be done with it.
Human beings were not created to consume the unnatural.
