Michelle Obama partners with Monsanto?

US-POLITICS-MICHELLE OBAMA

Note from GovernmentSecrets.com: Despite heavy national attention in the early morning hours of Friday July 25, 2014 – many major news sites have removed the following article from their sites, along with the source URL now being completely removed. In fact, the entire source domain it came from is offline.  Originally thought to be caused by the heavy traffic generated from the worldwide attention, and the fact that DrudgeReport.com published the article in the prime spot top and center of the site – it is now unclear where this story has gone.  Is it a hoax? Or is it being covered up? The story will remain archived here for reference, but may ultimately be a hoax.  Discretion is advised on this one… 

Original story written by Ben Velderman

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Michelle Obama’s effort to slim down America’s youth has struck a “potentially transformative” deal with a major agriculture company.

DailyLeak.org reports the first lady is teaming up with Monsanto to promote “‘healthy’ genetically modified food to children.” The company has agreed to spend $50 million on the effort over five years.

“When I see a company like Monsanto launch an initiative like this, I feel more hopeful than ever before,” Obama at a recent event to announce the deal. “We can improve how we make and sell food in this country.”

“It’s a natural extension of what we do,” Monsanto official Michael Stern, told the Associated Press.

Maybe so, but it’s not clear how a company that’s primarily known for producing seeds and herbicides for farmers is going to nudge children into eating foods the first lady thinks they should be eating.

Details of this deal have been sketchy, perhaps intentionally so. After all, the unholy alliance of Big Government and Big Business is one definition of fascism.

DailyLeak.org suggests the first lady’s willingness to partner with a big food corporation could be yet another sign that “she’s getting more aggressive” about promoting her “Let’s Move!” anti-childhood obesity campaign.

“Late last year she convened a White House summit to convince agribusiness to rethink their marketing efforts towards children,” the news site notes.

That wasn’t the first time Michelle Obama has urged a food-related company to “rethink” its business practices. In 2012, the Mars candy company agreed to discontinue its king-size candy bars, in deference to the first lady’s effort to control what Americans eat.

“Let’s Move!” Executive Director Sam Kass called the White House’s deal with Monsanto “potentially transformative.”

Again, what that means in specific, concrete terms is anyone’s guess.

But as DailyLeak.org notes, “One move by Monsanto can ripple throughout the industry, and the company has grown increasingly bold in tackling complex social and political issues.”

The company also has strong ties to Democrats. Again from DailyLeak.org:

“In recent years, Monsanto has reached out to Democrats and sought out political appointments within government. Michael Taylor, Monsanto’s former Vice President for Public Policy, is now Deputy Commissioner of the Federal Drug and Food Administration.”

Aurora is rumoured to be a top secret aircraft that has been in development since 1989. These claims originated in Aviation Week and Space Technology magazine in 1989. In November 2013, Lockheed Martin announced it was developing a similar SR-72 spy plane (illustrated) said to be able to accelerate up to Mach 6
