THE PRESIDENT’S POWER TO NEGOTIATE TREATIES
By Attorney Jonathan Emord

A Clear and Present Danger
Lurking beneath the surface of public debate over the constitutionality of the President’s agenda is concern that Obama and the Democrat controlled Senate might commit the United States to a treaty that would violate Americans’ economic and civil liberties. If, for example, the President were to enter into a treaty, confirmed by two-thirds of the Senate, committing the United States to harmonize the domestic regulation of foods and dietary supplements with the restrictive regime imposed on Europe by adoption of European Food Safety Authority recommendations, would that treaty be constitutional? What if through an act of Congress, the Legislative branch gave the Executive authority to negotiate such a treaty, would it then be constitutional?
In Federalist No. 75, Alexander Hamilton presciently observed that if the President were vested with power not only to negotiate but also to confirm treaties committing the United States, there existed a distinct risk that he would sacrifice Americans’ liberties for personal gain. Consistent with this defense of the Constitution, Article II, Section 2 vests in the President the power to negotiate treaties but reserves to a vote of two-thirds of those present in the Senate the power to adopt a treaty. In a passage that rings true today not only for the President but also for members of Congress and appointed heads of federal agencies, Hamilton wrote:
[A] man raised from the station of a private citizen to the rank of chief magistrate, possessed of a moderate or slender fortune, and looking forward to a period not very remote when he may probably be obliged to return to the station from which he was taken, might sometimes be under temptations to sacrifice his duty to interest, which it would require superlative virtue to withstand.
Corruption of this kind is commonplace in the nation’s Capitol. To feather their own nests, heads of federal agencies, members of Congress, and even Presidents of the United States enter into deals that give favored industries anti-competitive benefits—either through the passage of regulations or laws that create barriers to entry or through the adoption of licensing regimes that exclude competitors from the right to conduct business. In exchange, a grateful industry often gives those responsible in government a major payback in the form of lucrative post-government employment.
This corruption is particularly dangerous when it involves benefits coming from foreign governments or industry in exchange for treaty provisions. Hamilton warned (in reference to the President), “[a]n avaricious man might be tempted to betray the interests of the state to the acquisition of wealth” and “[a]n ambitious man might make his own aggrandizement, by the aid of a foreign power, the price of his treachery to his constituents.”

In Senate Bill 510 (the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act), we find open-ended language that invites the Executive branch to negotiate agreements with foreign governments that would “harmonize” American laws protective of consumer access to dietary supplements and information concerning them with European laws that deny consumer access to dietary supplements and censor information concerning them. In Section 306 of the bill, the Secretary of HHS is charged with the duty of developing “a comprehensive plan” concerning foods exported to the United States. The plan is to include, among other things, “recommendations on whether and how to harmonize requirements under the Codex Alimentarius” and on “multilateral acceptance of laboratory methods and detection techniques.” Although the last clause of this statutory provision does provide that “nothing” in it “shall be construed to affect the regulation of dietary supplements under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act,” that Act has been construed by FDA to mean the opposite of what Congress intended in several key provisions (including the FDA’s refusal to permit scientific literature containing nutrient-disease associations from being sold together with the nutrients in question). Although the section could be construed to be limited to food exports, it could also be construed to invite international agreements that affect not only food exports but also domestic holding, sale, and distribution of foods.
The language of Section 306 of S. 510 is therefore dangerous. It requires the Executive branch to evaluate whether and how “to harmonize requirements” with those of the Codex Alimentarius which, concerning dietary supplements, favors the adoption of regulations by each member state, including the United States, that would impose upper limits on supplements under safety criteria that could make a supplement dose causing any biological effect deemed potentially unsafe and forbidden. This opens the door to expansion into this country of European standards that presume supplements unsafe and illegal unless proven with clinical trial data to be safe (even in the presence of decades of safe consumption). This also opens the door to expansion into this country of European standards that effectively deem any dietary supplement that (and related claims about a supplement that it) produces a physiological effect to be potentially harmful and, thus, unlawful.
The fail safe in Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution is the requirement that the President obtain the advice and consent of the Senate for all treaties and that no treaty be enacted without the consent of two thirds of the Senators present. In United States v. Curtiss-Wright Export Corp., the Supreme Court ruled that the President has sole negotiating power. “He alone negotiates,” wrote Justice Sutherland. “Into the field of negotiation, the Senate cannot intrude; and Congress itself is powerless to invade it.”
Thus, even without S. 510, the President could negotiate a treaty with the EU that would call for changes in U.S. regulation of dietary supplements to mirror those draconian restrictions present in the European Union, but the treaty could not become law in the U.S. without a vote of two-thirds of the Senators present. Without question Section 306 of S. 510 is an invitation for the Executive branch to negotiate an agreement on harmonization with Europe, albeit it does not expressly confirm Senate approval of the agreement. Arguably if two-thirds of the Senate vote in favor of S. 510, that could be manipulated, particularly by an Administration that has little respect for constitutional strictures that interfere with political efficiency, as Senate consent to harmonization without need for a formal separate passage of a treaty.
In this way, an administration that has already proven itself willing to violate the Constitution to achieve administrative ends (e.g., FDA censorship of health claims; a health care law that forces those who are not in “commerce” — who have no health insurance and do not want it — to buy that insurance) could alter domestic law without statutory amendment to the Food Drug and Cosmetic Act entirely through the treaty power; or could it?
The Supreme Court has not defined clearly the limits of the treaty-making power in Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution. Nevertheless, use of it to supplant laws of Congress regulating domestic products would be beyond the plain and intended meaning of the treaty making provision. The treaty making power cannot withstand serious constitutional inquiry if it is used to replace or circumvent the Article I enumerated powers of Congress or to invade the exercise of rights protected from the federal government by the Bill of Rights.
But would President Obama and Democratic leadership in the Senate abuse the treaty making power to achieve changes they desire to domestic law cognizant of the fact that it would be difficult to achieve through statutory means? I think they would. I see nothing in the words or actions of either that reveals a serious commitment to ensure that the government lives within the limits of the Constitution. None of them appears alarmed by the fact that almost all federal laws are made not by Congress but by the unelected bureaucracy, transforming the United States from a republic into a bureaucratic oligarchy. None appears to have been detained for even a millisecond before passing into law the health reform bill despite profound constitutional questions concerning the proper power of Congress under the Commerce Clause to require all Americans to buy health insurance if not presently covered. A cavalier disregard for constitutional limits is the order of the day. The political ends desired appear to justify unconstitutional means according to this way of thinking. Given that mindset, I would not be surprised in the least if the Obama Administration uses S. 510 as a basis for achieving through international agreement what could not pass in Congress—a harmonization to some as yet unknown degree of American law with EU law, imposing here draconian restrictions and censorship not politically possible by act of Congress.
Moreover, it is very difficult to challenge the President’s treaty making power. Issues related to standing to sue and nonjusticiable political questions make it difficult for potential plaintiffs to achieve judicial review of treaties, albeit when those treaties specifically address a company or group, standing has been found by the courts.
S. 510 thus potentially opens Pandora’s box. Section 306 of the bill invites mischief that could play itself out in extraconstitutional actions by this Administration that would limit U.S. access to and claims concerning dietary supplements. For reasons I have explained in a prior article (“More Government without Accountability—8-30-10), the entire bill should be scrapped.
It is more evidence of feverish legislative activity by this Congress that seeks to supplant free enterprise with government fiat. It is odious to economic and civil liberty. Federal law already provides full power to the FDA to act against any party that sells an adulterated food or dietary supplement. To the extent that Congressmen and Senators want that goal achieved, the power already exists to achieve it and this bill is redundant and superfluous.

The Voice of Health and Food Freedom™
September 18, 2010 — Our friends at Campaign for Liberty report today that Tom Coburn, MD, US Senator from Oklahoma, is holding up “unanimous consent” approval of the fake “food safety” bill S.510. *
Dr. Coburn has released a white paper on the Bill, outlining some of the reasons for opposing it, commenting, “The way the bill is written the authority is extremely broad and could be used by FDA to issue very specific and onerous regulations on food facilities, without even the normal rule-making and guidance process FDA food regulations normally go through.” **
The Trustees of Natural Solutions Foundation want to thank Senator Coburn for his strong public opposition to S. 510, which would force the industrialization of our local, organic, safe food supplies, turning them over to the very factory-farm system that has failed to protect the safety and wholesomeness of the factory “food” which has been the cause of recent food-poisoning incidents.
Through www.HealthFreedomUSA.org the Foundation seeks to educate decision makers on the dangers of what over-regulation will do to our family farms and ranches, community and home gardens and farmers’ markets. Senator Coburn correctly observes, “overlapping and duplicative inspections of 1,451 domestic food-processing facilities that produce foods regulated by both agencies… This overlap was evident in the egg salmonella scare. …U.S. Department of Agriculture experts knew about sanitary problems at one of the two Iowa farms at the center of a massive nationwide egg recall, but did not notify … the FDA…” thereby putting the Federal bureaucracy at the heart of the problem.
Clearly, this bill is not a “noncontroversial” bill that can be rushed through what is rapidly becoming a “lame-duck” Congress. The recent addition of a companion bill, S.3767, criminalizing food production, makes the situation even more controversial. Senator Coburn and others who see this realize these issues must be debated after full public hearings, in the new Congress about to be elected.
For more than a year, the plan to capture – and kill – clean, local, organic, independent and safe farming has been wending its way through Congress. Last year, the devastating HR 1279 passed although we put up a good battle, delaying it for quite a while. However, at the end of the day, a good battle followed by a loss is still a loss. Then the field of battle shifted to the US Senate, where we’ve held the forces of Big Agra and Big Govt at bay for nearly a year…
The bill as written threatens small farm, home, local/organic and community food production with onerous rules that, while perhaps appropriate for industrialized food production, will create impossible “barriers against entry” that will rapidly destroy such local and natural production. No protective language is included in the Senate bill that satisfies these concerns.
As an example of the type of controls imposed, Section 106 provides in part for the regulations issued to be kept secret from the public, “In the interest of national security, the Secretary … may determine the time and manner in which the guidance documents issued under paragraph (1) are made public…” This provision will allow secret regulations, in violation of centuries of American legal precedence. This provision alone is a clear and present threat to the Republic.
The bill as written, in effect, incorporates the “HARMonization” provisions of the discredited “Dietary Supplement Safety Act” S.3002 and actually calls upon the FDA to recommend harmonization of American nutritional freedoms with Codex Alimentarius’ restrictions [Section 306(c)(5)]. Further, Section 404: states “Nothing in this Act… shall be construed in a manner inconsistent with… any …treaty or international agreement to which the United States is a party.” These provisions set up a “road map” to the rapid, full implementation of Codex restrictions.
Senator Coburn is standing up to the combined forces of Big Agra Biz and several of the largest and most powerful Federal Agencies — government departments which have failed to protect the public and which see the only answer for their failures is to provide them with more money and more power.
We urge Senator Coburn and his colleagues to stand firm. We the People stand behind you!

Another Attack By the Empire
S.3767, New Companion Bill to S. 510 Introduces Severe Criminal Penalties
For “Adulterating” Food, Which To FDA Means… Selling Supplements!
Food Fascism Battle is Far From Over
1. Must Take Revised Action Item Each Day:
http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=4613
2. Must send viral! Please forward this item, urging contacts to take the Action Item and then send it to their contact with the same request.
3. Check http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm to Find Your Senat Phone Numbers. Call Your Senators and Leave a Strongly Worded Message Like This One, Two, Three, Four:
1. S.510 is a CONTROVERSIAL BILL, and
2. Please, Senator, put a HOLD on it.
3. Senator, don’t let it be pushed through the Senate immediately by parliamentary means as a non-controversial bill.
4. The bill can be reintroduced in January when hearings can held to allow groups which are opposed to the bill to tell how it will affect them. And the American food supply.
The Empire, the Uber Cartel, is on the march. They are marching on your Dinner Table, Your Supplement Shelf and Your Personal Freedom.
S. 3767, the “Food Safety Accountability Act of 2101” was introduced yesterday by Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT). It is a companion fake “Phude” Safety Bill which brings back the horrific criminal penalties which HR 1279 imposed for doing pretty much anything at all that violated the incredibly restrictive requirements which every farm, and every farmer, would have to meet. The Senate bill, S. 510, while truly frightening, did not include these penalty clauses.
By putting criminal penalties back into the “Phude Safety” arena, the megacorporations which want to drive everyone out of their farmyards and supermarkets will literally be able to criminalize and jail the owners of a company which cites scientific literature showing that their product is beneficial in some specific situation or circumstance.
“Yesterday, in the waning days of the 111th Congress, as We the People prepare to throw the rascals out, Big Agra Biz’ friends in Congress have taken the unusual late-session step of introducing a criminal penalty bill. The bill reintroduces a 10 year jail term for anyone who sells what the govt later decides was “adulterated” or “misbranded” food, a provision which had been removed from the House-passed (sic) “Food Safety” version last year (HR.1279). The political insiders plan, our contacts tell us, to add S. 3767 to S.510 so the penalties can be in the final bill approved by the conference committee.” Read more here at Trustee Ralph Fuectola’s blog on this horrifying development: http://vitaminlawyerhealthfreedom.blogspot.com/2010/09/s510-companion-bill-s3767-to.html
The Natural Solutions Foundation has been warning against just such a development when we noted with great concern that Codex, like the US FDA, was making the act of telling anyone about the health benefits of food a forbidden act. We noted that this suppression of expression and truth was directed against health and food freedom, and has nothing to do with food safety.
Well, here we are: A “Phude Safety” Bill, S. 510, will industrialize your food and its Policeman Brother Bill will put people who support any health freedom competition to the Uber Cartel away for a long, long time, threatening and cowing others who might want to do the same thing.
Not bad enough for you yet? CDC says that 1 American in 4 will become ill from a food borne illness this year – and that’s under the current system when some people are still able to eat food that is clean and unadulterated. That figure, by the way, refers to conditions like salmonella poisoning. It does not refer to cancer, a food borne illness that will kill one American in 3 and has just overtaken cardiovascular disease and stroke as the number one killer of Americans. It does not refer to cardiovascular disease and stroke, which will kill another 1/3 of Americans. Nor does it refer to obesity, diabetis and other nutritional killers. What that means, of course, is that through eating industrial “Phude”, the only kind that S. 510 and S. 3767 will permit, you WILL suffer and die from the “epidemic, preventable, non communacable diseases of under nutrition”, to use the phrase so beloved of the World Health Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organizations, who just happen to be the private, pharma-phunded organizations which run Codex! They openly acknowldge what the FDA tries to hide: fake “Phude” kills.
Consider that: the passage of these twin horror bills means that EVERY AMERICAN [except, perhaps, the elite who have their own very special food systems, as Congress has its own very special health care system] WILL be the victim of food borne diseases, including infertility, auto immune diseases, allergies, cancer, diabetes, etc., etc., etc.
And you’ll use nutrients and nutrtion to treat it, right? Not if these bills pass. Only if they do NOT pass.
Well, Who Is In Charge Here?
Monsanto? Pfizer? Sen. Lehey?
NOT!
You and I and our neighbors, friends, relatives and co-workers are in charge. We, the People have ultimate Power .
Perhaps you have already taken this Action Item. The good news is that we have revised it to reflect yesterday’s surprise assault so you can take it again, once for every member of your household, and then send it forth, again to let your list know that the other side is not playing for fun, but is engaged in a deadly struggle. Whose death? Yours, I am afraid, and mine, and our children, and our future.
GOOD NEWS: REASON FOR HOPE
As of Close of Business today, the official US Senate Calendar does not show S. 510 on its voting schedule. Given the enormous importance that Agribiz, Biotech and the globalists attach to destroying your access to clean, unadulterated food, this is very good news. But given the fact that we have a long, long drag of days between now and the end of the 111th Congress, we are clearly not out of the woods yet. We anticipate that the S. 510 and S. 3767 will be introduced close to one another so we will be watching both of them.

Vaccine Mandates On the Way Back
Donate to Support the Stop the Shot3 Federal Law Suit – The Judge Said We Won the First Two Rounds. Let’s Go for a KO in the Third!
http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189
We wish we did not have to say it, but deadly vaccine mandates, starting, but certainly NOT ending, with the H1N1 Swine Flu vaccines, now inserted into the seasonal vaccines are back. Not only are states like New York and employers all over the country working up to mandate vaccinations for health care workers, the Department of Defense has issued a vaccine mandate for the teachers in its overseas schools for DOD dependents AND for the children in them.
Today, the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Imunization Practices (ACIP) whose recommendations generally become mandates, discussed in a day long meeting, how to make many, many vaccines mandatory for children, adolescents, adults and the elderly. Vaccines (and re-vacciantions) like Measles Mumps Rubella (MMR of Andrew Wakefield, MD and autism fame), Hepatitis B, Chicken Pox and on and on and on.
Fascism is fascism. Freedom starts with owning your own body. If the State controls what happens to your body, you are a slave, a vaccine slave in this case. Is that what you are? We say “NO!” and it is for that reason that the Natural Solutions Foundation is suing the FDA in Federal Court AGAIN to prevent the use of these untested, unsafe, unnecessary and uninsurable poisons.
Remember, there is not a single – NOT A SINGLE – placebo controlled, double blind study showing that vaccines are either safe or effective. Vaccine “trials” are conducted using the shoddiest of shoddy science, as for example, when a vaccine trial uses a non-mercury containing version, shows no immediate ill effects and proceeds to market the same brew but with mercury dumped in.
What do we need from you? Two things:
1. Your donations to make this legal avenue possible, http://drrimatruthreports.com/?page_id=189, and
2. Your participation if you are a teacher, health care worker, student, employee, etc., whose health and well-being are being threatened by a mandate requiring you to accept a vaccine or suffer the serious consequences of dismissal or other reprisal by the system itself. If that is your situation, please contact me at dr.laibow@gmail.com. Put “VACCINE” in the subject line and we WILL get back to you!

[2] Blood mercury levels in autism spectrum disorder: Is there a threshold level?
Geier DA, Audhya T, Kern JK, Geier MR.
Institute of Chronic Illnesses, Inc., Silver Spring, MD, USA. Abstract
Mercury (Hg) may significantly impact the pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Lab results generated by Vitamin Diagnostics (CLIA-approved) from 2003-2007, were examined among subjects diagnosed with an ASD (n=83) in comparison to neurotypical controls (n=89). Blood Hg levels were determined by analyzing Hg content in red blood cells (RBC) using cold vapor analysis, and consistent Hg measurements were observed between Vitamin Diagnostics and the University of Rochester. Adjusted (age, gender, and date of collection) mean Hg levels were 1.9-fold significantly (P<.0001) increased among subjects diagnosed with an ASD (21.4 microg/L) in comparison to controls (11.4 microg/L). Further, an adjusted significant (P<.0005) threshold effect >15 microg/L) was observed for Hg levels on the risk of a subject being diagnosed with an ASD in comparison to controls (odds ratio=6.4). The weight of scientific evidence supports Hg as a causal factor in subjects diagnosed with an ASD.

I really like the work that the Environmental Working Group does and often applaud them publicly. Until today.
Today, this environmental and social policy group took a giant step backwards and fell off the cliff into the filth below,as far as I am concerned.
I read with distress and disgust that they were supporting the passage of S. 510, the phony “PHUDE” “Safety” Bill and decided that I had to urge them to review and revise their anti-health, anti-freedom, pro totalitarian policy in support of S. 510.
Shortly after I wrote and sent it, I saw that another group, NJPRIG, is also endorsing this awful bill. Having just spell checked this one, I had it ready to go.
Please feel free to use this letter, or the material contained in it, to send letters to persons and organizations endorsing these bills, to modify so that they become letters to the Editor, etc. Use it or we ALL lose it!
Yours in health and freedom,

To EWG on the occasion of their support of S. 510
Dear EWG,
I am disappointed and deeply concerned that your organization has decided to support the draconian, dangerous and destructive fake Food “Safety” Bill, S. 510. The estimated cost of first year implementation will be $825,000,000 (Section 401).
Since factory food, not local, organic and family farm food, is responsible for the atrocious level of food safety in the US food supply, it is the de-industrialization of our food supply which will protect our health and increase food safety, not the reverse. The bill, of course, gives more power to the FDA to abuse, more money to that organization to spend on policies which have shown no success in the past in controlling food-borne illnesses and new resources to damage clean food source operations and their ability to remain in business legally.
The bill also brings into force the complete HARMonization of the US with Codex Alimentarius, an international body led by the US demands for corporitization and industrialization of the global food supply to the degradation of that food supply through irradiation, chemical contamination and unproven, unsafe GMOs.
Specifically, the bill as written, in effect, incorporates the “HARMonization” provisions of the discredited “Dietary Supplement Safety Act” S.3002 and actually calls upon the FDA to recommend harmonization of American nutritional freedoms with Codex Alimentarius’ restrictions.
– Section 404: “Nothing in this Act… shall be construed in a manner inconsistent with… any …treaty or international agreement to which the United States is a party.”
– Section 306(c)(5): “Recommendations on whether and how to harmonize requirements under the Codex Alimentarius.”
While I concur that the amendment re: BPA is a good idea, the bill to which it is attached will not increase food safety, but rather will cataclysmically diminish food safety by industrializing the entire US food supply.
Small, local and organic farmers, whose food is not the source of food-born illnesses, will be forced out of business if they cannot meet the expensive, ineffective and unnecessary standards of reporting, seed sorting facilities and other equipment requirements and so forth which Agribiz is capable of meeting.
For example, the ancient, and vital practice of seed saving to improve stock will only be possible under this bad bill if there is a facility devoted to each species of plant, say, one for tomato, one for broccoli, one for eggplant, on the farmer’s property: each such facility will cost between $1M and $1.5M. Clearly, this is a purposeful maneuver to make the act of seed saving a crime for the small farmer.
The bill as written threatens small farm, home, local/organic and community food production with onerous rules that, while perhaps appropriate for industrialized food production, will create impossible “barriers against entry” that will rapidly destroy such local and natural production. No protective language is included in the Senate bill that satisfies these concerns.
Heretofore, food and drug regulations in the United States have been public documents of record and, as such, available to the public. S. 510 changes that and in Section 106 provides in part for the regulations issued to be kept secret from the public, “In the interest of national security, the Secretary … may determine the time and manner in which the guidance documents issued under paragraph (1) are made public…”
As the Medical Director of the Natural Solutions Foundation, www.HealthFreedomUSA.org and www.GlobalHealthFreedom.org, the world’s largest health freedom organization, and as a personal supporter of your previous work and positions, I must urge you to carefully reconsider the position your organization has taken on this dangerous, unnecessary, expensive and destructive bill.
Rather than support it, the Natural Solutions Foundation has urged Health Freedom Advocates and Activists to correspond with their Senators and other decision makers to oppose this legislation, making sure that it is NOT passed by Unanimous Congressional Consent or by any other means. Our Action Item is here: Stop S.510! http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=4613
To date, our supporters have sent 358,700 emails urging the defeat of S. 510.
We invite you to revise your organizational policy and urge your supporters to join ours in doing the same.
Please feel free to contact me for additional information or dialogue on this vitally important and timely issue.
Yours in health and freedom,

Hacked Again! Multiple Web Sites Hacked To Keep You From Defeating S. 510!
Permalink: http://drrimatruthreports.com/?p=6628
ACT NOW, Forward Widely!
Major Hack Attack Just When We Need Your Action the Most! Coincidence? NOT!
These Action Items are So Important That We, AND Oracle Broadcasting, Just Got Knocked Off the Internet To Keep You From Taking Action!
Defeat S. 510 to prevent the total industrialization of Food: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=4613

If you were listening to our Dr. Rima Reports broadcast, www.Oraclebroadcasting.com, or www.HealthFreedomPortal.org, this morning, you know:
1. Natural Solutions Foundation’s main websites, www.HealthFreedomUSA.org, and www.GlobalHealthFreedom.org, were nowhere to be found
2. www.HealthFreedomPortal.org, our live chat and show access page for the show, was not available since it, too, was hacked
3. Our massively important Action Item against S. 510 was unavailable so you were blocked from taking action to prevent the total destruction and industrialization of the US food supply and the triumph of Codex Alimentarius in America. Your emails have successfully stopped passage of this bill, which has been called “Monsanto’s wet dream bill”, since last November. The globalist controllers, apparently, are growing impatient.
4. Because of this hacking episode you could not make a tax deductible donation through our “donate” tab as you usually can do.
5. The internet radio station, www.OracleBroadcasting.com, which we broadcast through lost its sound capacity during our show so listeners to the Dr. Rima Reports suddenly found that the only way they could listen to the show was through the call in line, 512-904-8014! Most of them, obviously, simply lost the show.
Health and Food Freedom websites are under attack and were taken off the internet about 11 AM this morning, near the start of the Dr. Rima Reports Internet Radio Program. As in past hack attacks, this occurs at a critical moment as we seek to overcome the false letter sent late Friday aftteroon from the heads of FDA and HHS to the members of the US Senate, trying to stampede them into passing the fake “food safety” bill, S.510.
During the show, Ralph Fucetola, JD, Counsel and Trustee, set up an emergency link on the so-far-unhacked site, www.drrima.net, so that you can, in fact, take action. In less than 1 hour, more than 500 people did so, generating 2500 emails to Congress and other decision makers. That is not good enough.
The emergency page linked below is posted on the Dr Rima Network to allow access to urgent action items and updates in this battle.
Please also check here for updates:

MUST ACT NOW TO STOP S.510!
This link takes you directly to the Action Item:
http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=4613
Take it once for each member of your family and then send it to everyone you can reach electronically. They all eat. They all can come down with the chronic diseases of under nutrition. It is their issue, too. Ask each of them to take the action once for each member of their family and then send it out to their contacts, asking those contacts to repeat those steps, etc.
Next, go to this site to find your US Senators’ phone numbers:
http://www.contactingthecongress.org/
Please, after sending your email above, get the phone number and CALL
your US Senator’s office, leave a strong message!
You may want to tell them in your message that the language in S.510:
1. Will close down family and organic farms because it requires them to have hugely
expensive machinery that they cannot afford;
2. Will create a monopoly over industrialized food for Big Agrabiz;
3. Will NOT stop tainted food problems because the bad stuff comes from
Big Agribiz where they already have the machinery and mechanisms required but still produce factory farm food;
4. Has language that opens the door for Codex restrictions to be implemented in the US despite the will of the people, current law and current regulation
5. The law contains language that allows bureaucrats to create secret regulations;
6. Will put the Homeland Security in charge of food delivery systems around the country
– politicizing same since any state in disagreement with the Feds will have
problems receiving food;
7. Because S. 510 so strongly favors Big Agrabiz, companies like Monsanto will more easily be able to push its GM agenda; and
8. Will cost at least $825 million in the first year…
We MUST take off the white gloves, take the Action Item and then call their Senators on Monday to rage about this Bill. S. 510 could come up as early as Monday and probably will, sometime this week. We are looking for a couple of Senators who are willing to fight it on the floor so it will be delayed – if delayed to the end of the year, it is dead – but the Globalists are seriously pushing this now… and they want YOU dead!
So you must act now; forward this widely!
Of course, our donation page is down too, but you can donate through PayPal via www.DrRima.net
(donation button on lower right). Please help! We urgently need funds now!
We need to migrate our sites to much more secure servers!
