Although during her tenure in the White House as first lady Hillary enjoyed the benefit of 8 years of organic non-GMO food by virtue of her residency in the White House, 2016 candidate Clinton has been perhaps the most vocal proponent of GM food to yet enter the race.

According to Global Research writer Stephen Lendman, nearly all the food produced for the Clinton White House was obtained from local growers and suppliers, GMO-free, pesticide-free, and with a preference for organic.[1] That, preference, however, is not to be afforded the American people and the people of the third world for whom Hillary is pushing every toxic GM variety known to man.

Hillary’s Big-Agra ties go back quite a long ways. As far back as the 1980s, Hillary was working at high levels within the Rose Law Firm, a law firm that itself was tied to a number of scandals. Although not a scandal at the time, it is now important to note that the Rose Law Firm, at which Clinton was a partner, maintained Monsanto and Tyson Foods as clients.[2]

Yet a mere association between law firms and such food giants was by no means the depths of Clinton’s connection to these institutions and the industry of Genetically Modified Organisms and “biotechnology.”

It has been speculated by many that Hillary’s ties to Monsanto and Tyson as a result of her career with Rose was yet another link in the chain pulling biotech giants together with the Bill Clinton administration in the 1990s. Indeed, Clinton’s disastrous presidency resulted in seeing a number of former-biotech giant employees being hired and appointed to the FDA, USDA, and other relevant regulatory posts within the US government. While being careful not to ascribe the blame of Bill Clinton’s either years of treachery to Hillary, it is nevertheless worthwhile to ask whether or not Hillary served as a middleman of sorts for major government-corporate collusion of this type.

After all, when Clinton became US Secretary of State, she acted as Monsanto’s promoter both domestically and across the world, continuing a policy of GMO promotion that preceded and, apparently, continued even after she left the office.

In December, 2010, Wikileaks released sizeable number of cables, about ten percent of which revealed that the US State Department was essentially acting as the marketing wing for biotech companies and “biotech” products across the world. The thousands of cables that were released spanned over 100 embassies and were, unfortunately, released just before Christmas. As a result, the story faded into the holiday madness.[3]

Thankfully, in 2013, the watchdog organization Food and Water Watch delved into the cables and released a report entitled “Biotech Ambassadors: How The U.S. State Department Promotes The Seed Industry’s Global Agenda.” According to Food and Water Watch, their study “reveals a concerted strategy to promote agricultural biotechnology overseas, compel countries to import biotech crops and foods they do not want, and lobby foreign governments — especially in the developing world — to adopt policies to pave the way to cultivate biotech crops.”[4]

Food and Water Watch wrote,

Food and Water Watch closely examined five years of State Department diplomatic cables from 2005 to 2009 to provide the first comprehensive analysis of the strategy, tactics and U.S. foreign policy objectives to foist pro-agricultural biotechnology policies worldwide. Food & Water Watch’s illuminating findings include:

The U.S. State Department’s multifaceted efforts to promote the biotechnology industry overseas: The State Department targeted foreign reporters, hosted and coordinated pro-biotech conferences and public events and brought foreign opinion-makers to the United States on high-profile junkets to improve the image of agricultural biotechnology overseas and overcome widespread public opposition to GE crops and foods.

The State Department’s coordinated campaign to promote biotech business interests: The State Department promoted not only pro-biotechnology policies but also the products of biotech companies. The strategy cables explicitly “protect the interests” of biotech exporters, “facilitate trade in agri-biotech products” and encourage the cultivation of GE crops in more countries, especially in the developing world.[5]

The State Department’s determined advocacy to press the developing world to adopt biotech crops: The diplomatic cables document a coordinated effort to lobby countries in the developing world to pass legislation and implement regulations favored by the biotech seed industry. This study examines the State Department lobbying campaigns in Kenya, Ghana and Nigeria to pass pro-biotech laws.

The State Department’s efforts to force other nations to accept biotech crop and food imports: The State Department works with the U.S. Trade Representative to promote the export of biotech crops and to force nations that do not want these imports to accept U.S. biotech foods and crops.[6]

Even that bastion of liberalism, MSNBC, thinks something is up.
From this mornings Morning Joe show....

"" With news of the death of Paul Kantner of
Jefferson Airplane, let's borrow a line from
another group of the late '60s, Buffalo
Springfield: "there's something happening
here." What it is ain't exactly clear, but it
doesn't seem to bode well for Hillary Clinton.
Today's Morning Joe featured an ominous
exchange between Joe Scarborough and
Mark Halperin. The notion was that a variety
of sources--from a senior network exec, to
top Obama admin officials, to FBI agents--
are saying the same thing: the FBI
investigation of Hillary is much further along
than most people realize. Listen to Halperin:
"the body language among some Obama
administration officials is, this is more
serious, and something's going to happen ."
Halperin went on to say that "the timing of it
could be, if not cataclysmic, pretty bad for
Secretary Clinton."

JOE SCARBOROUGH: Can I ask
Mark Halperin a quick question?

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: Okay, a quick
one. We have so much to get to.

JOE: To Mark, I have to tell you
from a network executive high up
in another network that we all
know that asked when we were
going to start talking about what
most of us around this table are
hearing from multiple sources and
I'm sure you are, too: that the
Hillary Clinton investigation of
the FBI is far more progressed
and we're hearing it, Mika and I
have been hearing it, from the top
officials in the Obama
administration for actually several
months now and we can't go to a
meeting in Washington where we
don't hear that. I'm sure you're
hearing the same thing. What is --
what are your -- all of our sources
high up are telling us -- and
Nicolle is hearing the same thing,
that this investigation's far more
advanced than we the public
knows. What are you hearing?

MARK HALPERIN: Well, there are
three things people are keying off
of, Joe. First of all, there's a lot of
chatter amongst FBI agents, many
of whom have never been big fans
of the Clintons, but a lot of FBI
agents seem to be saying
something is happening here .
Second is, from a legal point of
view, you look at some of the
recent developments we've talked
about here on the program, it's
hard to see nw how the Justice
Department, the FBI, doesn't
want to interview Secretary
Clinton. And that interview alone
short of an indictment, short of
anything else, that would be a
huge political development , it
would undermine confidence in
some Democrats in the notion of
going forward with Secretary
Clinton. And the last thing is there
are some people in the White
House who are starting to talk
about this. It's not clear to me
whether they know what's
happening or there's just their
intuition but the body language
among some Obama
administration officials is: this is
more serious and something's
going to happen. Again, the
timing of it could be, if not
cataclysmic, pretty bad for
Secretary Clinton.""
