CONTROVERSIAL CHEMICALS IN THE FOOD

(CNN Fri.) When you're hurrying through the grocery store, reading the ingredients on food labels is probably not at the top of your mind -- unless you're considering an allergy or other dietary restrictions. Scientists and lawmakers, however, recommend shoppers should do their best to avoid items that contain these controversial chemicals. On the list is red dye No. 3, frequently used for food coloring in candies and processed snacks — as well as titanium dioxide, potassium bromate, brominated vegetable oil or propylparaben. 

Some chemicals linked to health issues have been banned in food products in the European Union (EU), while the United States has allowed use at levels determined safe. California Assembly Bill 418 (by two pretty evil Democrats) is pushing EU-type rules

Titanium dioxide is a powder used as a white colorant or to give a smooth texture in candies and other processed foods. Potassium bromate is added to baked goods to help dough strengthen and rise higher. In some beverages, brominated vegetable oil keeps citrus flavoring from floating to the top. Propylparabens are used for antimicrobial food preservation

In the EU, these chemicals are banned “due to scientific studies that have demonstrated significant public health harms, including increased risk of cancer, behavioral issues in children, harm to the reproductive system, and damage to the immune system,” Jewish lawyer-liar Democrat Jesse Gabriel’s news release says. He and Buffy Wicks (Obama Admin Democrat mother of young children). 

Red dye No. 3 (FD&C Red #3) is in Skittles, Nerds, Trolli gummies, protein shakes, instant rice and potato products, and boxed cake mixes. 

A California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment study that found red dye No. 3 can make children vulnerable to behavioral difficulties — such as decreased attention…. Hmm. 


TIKTOK hearing

(CNN Fri.) TikTok CEO Shou Chew testified Thursday before Congress as scrutiny mounts over the app's ties to China and its potential risks to national security. It was a rare chance for the public to hear from Chew, who offers very few interviews. Yet his company's app is among the most popular in America, with more than 150 million active users. The hearing, which lasted for more than five hours, kicked off with calls from a lawmaker to ban the app in the US and remained combative throughout. Chew used his testimony to stress TikTok's independence from China and play up its US ties. However, much of Chew's attempts to stress that his company is not an arm of the Chinese government appeared to fall on deaf ears. Numerous members of Congress interrupted Chew's testimony to say they simply don't believe him.


FLOOD WATCHES 

(CNN Fri.) The same system that brought rare tornadoes to California this week will trigger widespread severe thunderstorms today for the mid-South and Ohio Valley. More than 20 million people are under flood watches today across a large swath of the US stretching from Oklahoma to West Virginia. The storm already passed through the Oklahoma-Missouri border late Thursday, according to the Weather Prediction Center, drenching parts of the states with several inches of rain. Meanwhile, northeast Louisiana, southeast Arkansas and western Mississippi are also at moderate risk for severe thunderstorms that could bring strong tornadoes, large hail and damaging wind gusts of more than 70 mph. There is also a slight risk for severe thunderstorms from central Texas to southern Indiana through this morning.

SCHOOL STRIKE

(CNN Fri.) Los Angeles schools will reopen today following the conclusion of a massive three-day strike over wages and better working conditions. Thousands of school workers began picketing Tuesday after nearly a year of unsuccessful negotiations with the school district, leaving more than 500,000 students out of class this week. Though the strike may be over, frustrated members of the workers' union say they still feel undervalued by low pay, minimal staffing and inadequate hours as they provide essential services to the nation's second-largest school system. Among their requests, workers are calling for a 30% pay raise to boost their average salary -- which currently stands at $25,000.


FRANCE PROTESTS

(CNN Fri.) More than a million people took to the streets across France Thursday with protests turning violent in some areas as demonstrators voiced their fury at proposed pension reforms. Following flare-ups in Paris and regional capitals, at least 80 people were arrested and 123 police officers injured, French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said. Thursday was the ninth day of strikes in the country and the first of coordinated action since French President Emmanuel Macron's government pushed a bill to increase the retirement age from 62 to 64 through parliament without a vote last week. French unions have planned fresh strikes for next Tuesday, the same day Britain's King Charles is due to visit Bordeaux during his first foreign state visit as monarch.

Tom Brady buys partial stake in WNBA's Las Vegas Aces

SIMP SIMP SIMP SIMP! (CNN Fri.) About a month after announcing his retirement from the NFL, Tom Brady shared why he's joining the ownership of the women's sports team.


UKRAINE PROPAGANDA

(CNN Fri.) $400B! That's how much it will cost to rebuild from the war in Ukraine, the World Bank announced in an updated assessment. The majority of damage is concentrated in frontline eastern regions, including Donetsk, Kharkiv and Luhansk. Still, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is expressing optimism that a victory could come by the end of the year -- but only if Ukraine receives increased support from European and Western allies.
