‘Fight with the devil’: ‘Glyphosate Girl’ sounds the alarm over Trump executive order backing key herbicide



President Trump signed an executive order aimed at strengthening domestic supplies of glyphosate-based herbicides — and the co-executive director and co-founder of American Regeneration, Kelly Ryerson, is not pleased.

Ryerson, who is also known widely online as “Glyphosate Girl,” tells BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler that this executive order signals more than just agricultural policy.

“Some of us are feeling a little bit of a breach, a little bit of a betrayal here, because President Trump signed this executive order called ‘Promoting the National Defense by Ensuring an Adequate Supply of Elemental Phosphorus and Glyphosate-Based Herbicides,’” Wheeler tells Ryerson.

“My initial reaction to this is, wait a second, wait a second. I believe the evidence shows that glyphosate causes cancer,” she adds.


“Absolutely, it does,” Ryerson responds. “This has been a really long-term debate that really should never have been a debate. This chemical is the most used pesticide of all time globally. So, it is used all over the world.”

Ryerson notes that it’s been known by Monsanto, the manufacturer of the glyphosate-based herbicide Roundup, for a long time that it was a carcinogen.

“They went to great lengths since the 1980s to try and hide the fact that this can cause cancer because this is such a blockbuster product for them,” she tells Wheeler, noting that genetically modified organisms were developed to be resistant to the effects of glyphosate.

“So, that means that a farmer can plant this corn or soy, and then they can spray all over that crop, and it won’t die because that has been genetically modified to not be impacted by Roundup,” she explains.

“This was a system called Roundup Ready, and obviously it exploded. This is most of our agriculture in this country now. So, it’s a system that is highly dependent on the use of glyphosate to kill the weeds around those crops,” she continues, noting that our “entire agriculture system” is now built around this system.

Unfortunately, this is why banning glyphosate is not on the table in the eyes of the government.

“If we were to ban glyphosate tomorrow, yes, it would cause an incredible shock to our system. We’re not ready for it. But the idea to make it a national security issue and have a large executive order around it is signaling something much different,” Ryerson says.

“What this looked like to me is that President Trump was signaling to the Supreme Court and to Congresspeople, who are right now — this is another piece of it. ... Bayer is trying to get an immunity shield so that we can no longer sue pesticide manufacturers when we get sick from exposure to 57,000 different pesticides,” she explains.

“They told the Supreme Court, ‘Take this case. We think that there should be a liability shield put in place. Americans shouldn’t be able to sue these foreign chemical manufacturers when we get cancer, Parkinson’s, infertility,’” she continues.

“You were talking earlier about this fight with the devil right now ... and just feeling, like, these dark forces,” she adds. “This is a very key part of that for me.”

Rep. Chip Roy's WARNING about the Islamification of America



BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales and Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) are among those leading the charge against not just a radical Islamic takeover in Texas — but the rest of the nation.

And it’s never been more important that they succeed.

“It is a really big problem, not just in this state or your home state of Texas and my home state of Texas, but in this entire country. And I’m very, very concerned that there are a lot of sleeper cells that are here because of the Biden administration being asleep at the wheel for four years,” Gonzales tells Roy.

And Roy couldn’t agree more.


“Under the First Amendment, you can believe what you want you to believe. But this is a political movement. It’s an ideological movement. The Muslim Brotherhood has a plan," Roy tells Gonzales.

"That plan is on full display in Dallas-Fort Worth as ground zero."

“We have no-go zones where women don’t want to go, in Arlington, in Richardson, in suburbs of Dallas-Fort Worth. That is part of their plan to Islamify Texas in our country. That is a political and ideological movement that is not square with the First Amendment. And we should treat it as such,” he continues.

“We should resist it. We should fight it. We should stand up on our Judeo-Christian values,” he adds.

And while standing up for our values against insidious ideologies like Islam is clearly important, the alternative is devastating.

“If we stand together for revival, a revival of faith and a revival of freedom, that faith is our Judeo-Christian principles, our Christian beliefs, and our dedication to freedom. Then we will win, and we’ll have the greatest century in our history,” he explains.

“If we recoil and let people hide behind the First Amendment to radically Islamify our country, if we back away from freedom and the ability of Americans to live without being under the thumb of government, then we will lose,” he continues.

“Those are the issues,” he adds.

'She was screaming': Rep. Brandon Gill clashes with Ilhan Omar as immigration battle heats up



Texas Republicans are escalating their efforts to take on illegal immigration, and Rep. Brandon Gill is leading the charge. While BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales is thrilled with his efforts, she’s well aware that her state is not even close to being out of the woods.

“Texas is kind of under siege right now,” Gonzales says to Gill.

“It is, and at this point, I believe we have 42 members of Congress in the Sharia-Free America Caucus. So it’s growing rapidly. We’re adding new members every single day,” Gill explains.

“This is a big issue. It’s not going away any time soon. And it’s our job as elected representatives to address it — and address it in a candid and straightforward way, which is to say that there are cultural incompatibilities here that we need to be aware of,” he tells Gonzales.


"I think our immigration system needs to reflect these, and I think we need to be determining who comes into our country. And we need to protect our culture,” he continues, pointing out that immigration is also one of the issues that touches everything else.

“It touches the quality of schools, the quality of health care, the cost of living, the cost of housing. I mean everything,” he adds.

Gill was also recently behind the Somalia Immigration Moratorium Act, which imposes a 25-year moratorium on immigration from Somalia into the United States.

And while much of the left is outraged by Gill’s moratorium, one member of Congress may have a little more disdain for him than the rest.

“Does Ilhan Omar give you the stink eye whenever she sees you?” Gonzales asks.

“Usually it’s much worse than that. I was giving a speech on the House floor about this bill in particular. And she was in the audience, and she was screaming. I could barely hear what she was saying, but she was … calling me names and all kinds of stuff,” he tells Gonzales.

“So she’s not a big fan of me, I will say,” he adds.

‘Brilliant dose of stage craft’: Trump forces Democrats to show their true colors at State of the Union



President Trump’s State of the Union address last night was one for the books, but one moment stood out in particular as it highlighted the intense divide between the left and the right when it comes to their understanding of the American people.

During his speech, Trump gave both Democrat and Republican legislators the chance to stand up and show their support for the American people.

“If you agree with this statement,” Trump said, “then stand up and show your support: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”

When Trump said this, the Republican side of the chamber stood, and Democrats stayed seated.


BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock believes Trump’s powerful performance showed a stark difference between the left and the right, while BlazeTV contributor Pastor Corey Brooks agrees.

“I think the right is going to definitely have a lot of commercials to run the Republican Party when they asked that question about, you know, supporting the American people over illegal immigrants. And no one on that side stood. I think that speaks volumes,” Brooks tells Whitlock.

“That’s exactly what we’re experiencing in the city of Chicago. So I know a lot of people can resonate with that,” he adds.

Whitlock points out that Trump was very “aggressive” and “clever about trying to draw the difference between himself and the Democrats.”

“I thought he drew a pretty good distinct line in the sand and gave people a clear choice,” he tells Brooks.

“People who watch that speech and listen to the words and not so much the rhetoric, but listen to what was being said, I think there’s a direct difference between both parties and everybody can see it,” Brooks responds, adding, “And I think overall, most Americans are probably going to wake up today and be aligned closer with those points of views.”

BlazeTV contributor Virgil Walker is aligned with Whitlock and Brooks, telling Whitlock that what Trump demonstrated was “a brilliant dose of stage craft.”

“There’s no other way around it. I mean to make the statement that he did as it relates to the first duty of government is to protect American citizens and those who agree with that, asking them to stand and then allowing, not for a brief, you know, stand and clap and sit down, but for that statement and the visual from that, to stand for as long as he did,” Walker says.

“For him to kind of point to those people who were sitting, was a brilliant set of stage craft. It allowed the American people to see it in real time that Democrats do not care for the needs of the American people first and that they primarily are thinking about their own political future,” he adds.

Most viral State of the Union moments of ALL time



While the State of the Union address is meant to showcase the presidential agenda, sometimes the moments that live on have little to do with policy. And according to BlazeTV host Liz Wheeler, some of the most memorable come from other politicians stealing the spotlight themselves.

“This one I place in the gold medal position here is Nancy Pelosi ripping up President Trump’s speech,” says Wheeler.

In a clip from Trump’s past State of the Union address, Pelosi stands behind Trump as he takes in the applause from the crowd, ripping up a copy of his address.

“This was not an impromptu action that Nancy Pelosi took. This was not something that she did in the heat of the moment. This was not an unscripted emotional outburst. This was something Nancy Pelosi deliberately planned to do, knowing that it would be broadcast in the background internationally,” Wheeler explains.


“This was her response to President Trump. Nothing of substance, no alternative vision, just ripping him up,” she says, pointing out that the Democrats aren’t the only party to have had a politician throw a tantrum at a State of the Union address.

“When Barack Obama was president and he was attempting to debunk a Republican talking about Obamacare … Representative Joe Wilson, in, I think … the first public heckling of a president during the State of the Union address, shouted from the floor of Congress ‘You lie!’ at Barack Obama in 2009,” Wheeler explains.

Wheeler points out that in the video of Obama being heckled by Wilson, Pelosi’s “jaw actually drops.”

“‘You lie’ wins our silver medal for top moments from past State of the Union addresses. And coming in third, the bronze medal, we have to give to Marco Rubio,” she says.

This bronze medal is in honor of Rubio’s “very first meme.”

“This was back in 2013, so over a decade ago, he gave the Republican rebuttal to President Obama,” Wheeler says.

In his rebuttal, Rubio is clearly thirsty and awkwardly bends down to take a swig from a tiny water bottle.

“And that, of course, that moment eclipsed anything else that the president said or didn’t say,” Wheeler adds.

Harmeet Dhillon is going to WAR against DEI



A major philosophical shift is under way inside the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division — and much of it is thanks to Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon.

Dhillon tells BlazeTV hosts Christopher Rufo and Jonathan “Lomez” Keeperman on “Rufo & Lomez” how she’s moving the agency away from diversity, equity, and inclusion-driven enforcement and toward a return to colorblind equality under the law.

“You’re bringing a totally different theory of civil rights law to the Department of Justice,” Rufo tells Dhillon. “This can’t be easy.”

“It is a very daunting task and, frankly, when I raised my hand in response to the president’s request to do this job, I knew it was going to be one of the more difficult jobs here in the DOJ because historically the Civil Rights Division has been a place that doesn’t really change very much from administration to administration,” Dhillon says.


The reason, Dhillon explains, is that “the lawyers who choose to make their careers doing civil rights work typically, historically, have been from a leftist perspective.”

“And that isn’t necessarily bad. I mean, there was a point in time in our country when we passed a lot of these civil rights laws in the 1960s, where we had rampant discrimination against African-Americans and other people and even against women to a degree,” she tells Rufo and Lomez.

“But way past the time that many of these historical ills have been corrected by our society, with or without the intervention of the Civil Rights Division, people have viewed it as their mission to continue to push the boundaries further and further out to the left,” she says.

This has posed one of the biggest issues for Dhillon in her war against DEI.

“The truism from the Reagan era is that personnel is policy. And so one of the biggest challenges we had here was, how are we going to implement the president’s agenda with personnel who don’t want to do that,” she explains.

“I actually had ... a relatively smooth transition into our mission because early on ... I issued memos to all the different sections here in the Civil Rights Division ... letting them know that we are going to be changing our focus here to implementing the president’s agenda, consistent with the civil rights statutes in the Constitution,” she continues.

“And that simple step, sometimes just one or two paragraphs of a memo to a few dozen lawyers, caused more than half of them to quit right away,” she adds.

Then, when an early retirement program at the DOJ was implemented, another several dozen took advantage of the program and quit.

“We were down about two-thirds of the manpower here in the Civil Rights Division. And so, then the challenge became how to do the big job of rightsizing our civil rights agenda and making it consistent with the president’s agenda,” she explains.

While she admits that it was difficult at the outset, she’s “happy to say that we’ve gotten past all of that.”

“We’ve hired a bunch of great people, young and old, here in the Civil Rights Division, who are very willing to work with us in doing the work that you’ve seen in the headlines,” she adds.

‘It’s all fool’s gold’: Team USA hockey State of the Union invite sparks feminist outrage



President Donald Trump made waves when he invited the U.S. men’s Olympic hockey team to his State of the Union address after the men struck gold at the Milan Cortina Olympics this Sunday.

But it’s not just Trump’s invitation that has the left up in arms.

FBI Director Kash Patel was also celebrating the win in the locker room with the team and held a phone up to the players on speakerphone so that Trump could deliver a message.

"We’re giving the State of the Union speech on Tuesday night," Trump said. "I can send a military plane or something, but if you would like to, it’s the coolest night, it’s the biggest speech."


As Trump spoke, one player interjected, “We’re in.”

"I must tell you: We're going to have to bring the women's team. You do know that. I do believe I probably would be impeached, okay?"

BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock was thrilled with the men’s Olympic win and calls the outrage over Trump’s invitation “fool's gold” and “phony outrage.”

“All of these feminists, all of these Marxists that are running around pretending that Donald Trump and the men’s hockey team have done something wrong. All of them running around pretending like, ‘Well, the women, they won gold too,’” he says.

“This whole controversy is a joke. Of course the women won gold in women’s hockey. What are there, like, three countries in the world that take hockey seriously for women?” he jokes.

Unlike women’s hockey, men’s hockey has been a staple of the Olympics since 1920.

“We’ve won three gold medals in men’s hockey over the course of 106 years. It’s a big deal when the men win. We’re not the most talented men’s team. Canada is. Don’t fall for the fool's gold,” Whitlock says.

“And Donald Trump doesn’t have to apologize, and Kash Patel doesn’t have to apologize, and the men’s U.S. hockey team doesn’t have to apologize,” he continues, “because Trump lives in reality and was talking to a group of men who just accomplished something incredible.”

The most unhinged liberal videos you'll see this week



The outside of the Kennedy Center and Lincoln Memorial became a stage this Presidents’ Day for a group of dancers protesting the deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers — and a clip of the performance is giving BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales “secondhand embarrassment.”

“That’s what they will pass off as art. It’s why you shouldn’t let your kids major in liberal arts. They’ll end up on the steps of the Kennedy Center performing that bulls**t,” Gonzales comments.

“I just have to wonder how many hours they spent working on that, rehearsing that all for this big moment that led them to absolutely nothing. Like great, you got the social media video. How many hours of your life did you waste that you could have been actually working?” she asks, adding, “Actually, we know liberals don’t work.”


But that’s not the only ridiculous video Gonzales came across this week.

In another clip, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) claims that the left is now guilty of being racist to her alongside the right.

“The thing that is not normal is for me to be attacked from the left. That is the, like, new wild card in this scenario. But it’s just interesting. And you know, I’ve been asked a couple of times, a couple of things about it,” Crockett began.

“I look at this specifically as a civil rights lawyer, and I see when they’re sending out ads, and they’re darkening my skin, and I’m just like, ‘I know what this is,’ right? And the reality is that yes, I woke up a black woman. I was born a black woman. I know I’m a black woman, for everybody that didn't think I didn’t know. Just FYI,” she continued.

“But I am not running on the fact that I’m a black woman. I am running on my credentials,” she added.

“That’s all you talk about,” Gonzales comments.

“Jasmine Crockett cannot go five minutes without telling someone, ‘I’m a strong independent black woman,’” she adds.
