A lawsuit filed by an environmental group is demanding answers after the USDA failed to turn over records related to an executive order issu
Relevant to this story, on June 23, 2026, the US Supreme Court issued an opinion siding with the maker of Roundup weedkiller. In a 7-2 ruling, the Supreme Court held that the maker of Roundup (Bayer) cannot be sued in state courts for failure to warn because federal regulators have found a cancer link unlikely and do not require a warning label. Federal law also bars states from imposing additional or different labeling requirements, the opinion from Justice Brett Kavanaugh states. That opinion should have no bearing on the lawsuit described below.
Excerpt from this story from The New Lede:
The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) is violating the law by failing to turn over records related to an executive order issued by President Donald Trump protecting production of the controversial pesticide glyphosate, according to a lawsuit filed Monday.
The lawsuit, filed by the Center for Biological Diversity, seeks to force the USDA to comply with a Freedom of Information Act request the center submitted on Feb. 26 requesting records related to how and why the order was developed.
“The main thing we’re hoping to understand is who in particular pushed for this?” said Brett Hartl, government affairs director at The Center for Biological Diversity, a nonprofit organization that advocates for environment and health issues.
The order was widely questioned by public health and environmental groups who saw the move by the Trump administration as directly benefitting Germany’s Bayer, which manufactures glyphosate in the US and is a key supplier of glyphosate-based herbicides, such as Roundup. Glyphosate herbicides have been linked to health issues such as cancer, and Bayer is currently fending off tens of thousands of lawsuits brought by people suffering from cancer they blame on exposure to the company’s products.
Bayer has been lobbying for federal and state laws to protect it from further litigation, and has asked the US Supreme Court for a ruling that would preempt key claims in the lawsuits.
Citing national security, the February order was issued under the Defense Production Act. The order calls for the defense of both glyphosate and elemental phosphorus, the raw material used to make controversial white phosphorus weapons.
According to the World Health Organization, white phosphorus can cause deep and severe burns, penetrating even through bone. Because of this, its specific uses are regulated by international humanitarian law.
Bayer is currently the only domestic producer of both elemental phosphorus and glyphosate.
The Center for Biological Diversity points out that the executive order is unique in its language granting “immunity” to chemical companies that make glyphosate.
“One thing that we have seen from the pesticide industry, which is playing out at the Supreme Court now, is that one of their very clear goals is to try to insulate their activities through immunity provisions in as many ways as possible,” said Hartl.

Climate campaigners question choice of James Evans for role given past criticism of green energy projects
The appointment of a Reform UK member of the Senedd Cymru as the chair of a key Welsh environmental committee could “undermine the hard graft of ministerial scrutiny”, a green thinktank has warned.
James Evans, a former Conservative party MS who defected to Reform UK in January last year, has been appointed chair of the Welsh climate change, environment, sustainability and rural affairs committee.
The role of the committee is to examine legislation and hold the Welsh government to account by scrutinising its spending, administration and policy in relation to climate breakdown and environmental concerns. It also holds inquiries into key issues, using these to make recommendations to government. The chair’s main role is to ensure there is a fair balance of opportunities for committee members to ask questions and for expert witnesses to respond.
It is the only environmental scrutiny committee in the Senedd, so who leads it “really matters because this is the principal way of holding the Welsh government to account”, said Ruth Chambers, senior fellow at the Green Alliance thinktank.
Reform UK has pledged to scrap net zero, with the party’s leader, Nigel Farage, calling net zero policies “lunacy” and committing to ripping up government contracts for renewable energy projects. Evans has previously said rural Wales is “under attack” from large-scale green energy infrastructure and said Reform would ban all new onshore windfarm developments in the country if elected.
Evans, who has a farming background, said his role as chair was to be “fair, impartial and evidence-led” and that “scrutiny is at its strongest when it includes different perspectives”.
Karen Whitfield, the director of Wales Environment Link, said that after the recent Welsh elections, which brought a large intake of Reform MSs to the Senedd, there has already been some “quite heated debates” concerning net zero policies. But in terms of how Evans ran the committee, she said only time would tell. “We will just have to see and obviously our members will be very keen to see that there isn’t any bias introduced in the way that committee inquiries are chosen,” she said.
The process of appointing select committee chairs is an opaque system whereby political parties make collective decisions on which party will lead which committee. Bethan Sayed, the head of politics and advocacy at Climate Cymru, questioned why a Reform MS would want to lead that committee.
“The concern is that throughout the election campaign, we’ve seen Reform say things like ‘we want to reopen the mines, we want to reopen the blast furnaces at Tata Steel’, and putting forward those coordinated attacks on net zero, opposing certain renewable developments, and so that is then a worry, because that is the current track record. The work of the other committee members is to encourage Reform to engage in changing that narrative and seeing things in a different light.”

The Bill hasn't passed yet; however it is very likely. Turkey just shut down the social media accounts of LGBT+ organizations, and quietly banned/"made not possible to see" multiple dating apps for LGBT people such as Taimi. These are small steps leading up to this. Just less than a year ago the distribution of Estrogen was made ten times harder and hormone replacement therapy laws upped the transitioning age from 18 to 21. Please speak for us.
