Protesters insist Kellogg remove artificial dyes from cereals like Froot Loops, just like in Canada

By Greg Wehner | Fox Business Dozens of protesters rallied at WK Kellogg Co. headquarters in Battle Creek, Michigan, on Tuesday, calling on the company to remove artificial dyes from cereals sold in the U.S., according to reports. As the maker of some of America’s favorite cereals – like Froot Loops and Apple Jacks – Kellogg said nearly a decade ago it would take artificial colors and ingredients out of its products by 2018. In Canada, though, Kellogg uses concentrated carrot juice, watermelon juice, huito juice and blueberry juice to color Froot Loops, the company's Canadian site shows. But in the U.S., Kellogg continues to use artificial colors and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), which according to WebMD is a lab-made chemical added to foods as a preservative....

Growth of Obama-era foster care policy unmasks transgender orthodoxy’s inherent threat to parental rights

By Tyler O'Neil  | Daily Signal A groundbreaking new report from The Daily Caller exposes the backstory behind the Biden-Harris administration’s regulation on foster care rules for children who identify as LGBTQ, and underscores the inherent threat that transgender orthodoxy poses to the parental rights of moms and dads who reject the idea that children can be “born in the wrong body.” In April, the Administration for Children and Families at the Department of Health and Human Services released a final rule for agencies to fully implement on or before Oct. 1, 2026. The HHS agency’s first released a version of the rule in September 2023, and updated it in response to public comment. Katelynn Richardson and Megan Brock, writing for The Daily Caller, reporte...

Trump vows to ‘end all sanctuary cities’ at ‘Faulkner Focus’ town hall with female voters

By Bailee Hill | Fox News Former President Donald Trump vowed to end sanctuary cities and restore "normalcy" as he took questions from female voters concerned about a variety of issues ahead of Election Day, including the economy, crime and abortion.  One woman, whose son attends the University of Georgia, pressed him on the issue of crime and public safety following the murder of nursing student Laken Riley earlier this year during the exclusive town hall Wednesday on "The Faulkner Focus." "My son is a Georgia Bulldog. He was on campus the day Laken Riley was murdered," the attendee told the former president. "Terrifying for all those kids, right? I wanted to know… how quickly in a sanctuary city –  like they're calling Athens, Georgia – how quickly can you remove those thr...

FEC filings contradict Democrat Frisch’s claims that he doesn’t take corporate PAC money

By Lindy Browning | Contributor, Rocky Mountain Voice Adam Frisch, the Democratic nominee for Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, has told his supporters in person, in debates, on social media and on national television, that he does not take corporate or PAC money.  The claims just don’t track with his own campaign filings to the Federal Election Commission (FEC). Neither does the fact that he has more than $13 million dollars in his campaign account. According to FEC records, Frisch has received 528 corporate donations through political-action committees. [See file at bottom of story] Frisch’s PAC donors include ACTBLUE, BLUEHEN, Progressive Turnout Project, Democrats Reshaping America PAC, Progressive Choices PAC, Jeffries For Congress, and Beyond Thoughts And Prayer...

Unearthed report reveals powerful Harris ally ‘willing to share’ resources from Black businesses with CCP

By Cameron Cawthorne , Andrew Mark Miller  | Fox News A powerful ally of Vice President Kamala Harris, who she has praised as an "extraordinary leader" who exhibits "courageous leadership," met with multiple CCP officials during a business trip to China, where he vowed to "[spread] the voice of Black businesses," Fox News Digital has learned. Ron Busby, who has visited the Biden-Harris White House dozens of times and is the longtime president of the U.S. Black Chambers, met with several CCP officials during a previously unreported trip to China, a Fox News Digital review found. Busby traveled to Beijing, Shanghai, and Xi'an for a 10-day trip as part of a delegation of New York government officials and business leaders, including then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s chief diversity o...

Taxpayer dollars used to buy campaign signs for Englewood bond measure

By Marissa Ventrelli | Colorado Politics The City of Englewood is facing criticism over a possible campaign law violation after using taxpayer dollars to purchase lawn signs advocating for the passage of one of its ballot measures.   According to Colorado Community Media, the signs, encouraging voters to approve an over $40 million bond measure for the city's parks, were purchased on July 1, before the city council officially voted to put the question on the ballot for residents.  About $2,000 in taxpayer funds was used to purchase 250 lawn signs, which read, "Yes to Parks & Recreation - Support Englewood's Parks & Recreation Bond." The signs do not disclose their funding source, another potential violation under Colorado's Fair Campaign Practices Act (FCPA)...

Kamala Harris urges black men to vote for her to legalize marijuana — despite convicting 1,900 as DA

By Steven Nelson | New York Post Vice President Kamala Harris urged black men to back her presidential candidacy Tuesday by pledging to legalize marijuana — despite overseeing more than 1,900 marijuana convictions as San Francisco district attorney between 2004 and 2011. Harris, 59, made the statement as she prepared for an afternoon interview with radio host Charlamagne tha God — on whose program she claimed in 2019 she had smoked marijuana in college, inviting allegations of hypocrisy over her prosecutorial record. “Kamala Harris will legalize recreational marijuana — breaking down unjust barriers that hold Black men and other Americans back and making sure Black Americans have opportunities to succeed as the marketplace takes shape,” she tweeted ahead of her...

Prop. 127’s ‘unintended consequences’ could be devastating, leaders in Northwest Colorado say

By Lindy Browning | Contributor, Rocky Mountain Voice Members of the Associated Governments of Northwestern Colorado (AGNC) were joined recently in a discussion of Proposition 127 by Gaspar Perricone, of the Wildlife Conservation Project and formerly a political advisor, legislative director to the Colorado Department of Natural Resources and regional director for Sen. Mark Udall. If supported by voters, Prop. 127 on the Nov. 5 statewide ballot would ban hunting of mountain lions, bobcats and federally-protected lynx. The measure is the result of an animal rights activist group, Cats aren’t Trophies (CATs), a 501(c) (3) organization who gathered enough signatures to place the issue on the ballot. This is the same process that led to the reintroduction of wolves in Colorado, often ter...
