The Department of Defense recently issued a memorandum on Warning Regarding Poppy Seed Consumption and Military Drug Testing.
Recent data suggest that certain poppy seed varieties may have higher codeine contamination that previously reported. The memorandum warns service members that the consumption of poppy seed products could result in a codeine positive urinalysis result.
Out of an abundance of caution, the Department is encouraging all service members to avoid the consumption of poppy seeds in all forms to include food products and baked goods. As more information becomes available, the Department will revise the policy accordingly.
The Warning Regarding Poppy Seed Consumption and Military Drug Testing memorandum can be found here.

Adding Slaughterbots to my vocabulary!
This would make for a scary horror movie in which people are beset by hundreds of microbots, I would have them equipped to bore into their targets. So real though.
Worse might be to come: one person could launch almost unlimited swarms of cheap microdrones — ‘slaughterbots’ — to wipe out political opponents or entire populations.

Newsweek could find no evidence that the DOJ requested to seize Jones' cat. Newsweek has contacted Infowars and the Department of Justice for comment.

I read that the cat was valued at $2K USD. My impression was mentioning it triggered a sellable Jones's fantasy defending his $100K/month bare minimum life-support.

So you only know what you are told on mainstream media. That tells me you know absolutely NOTHING! :)

The new crew at znetwork dot org (among others) took him to the woodshed and then some today. With the old guard stepping aside for exceptional newbies, its RSS often has several 'good reads' although today it was spectacular (IMHO). Not Walt's or Dee's fare at all.

George Santos keeps on hanging in there.
Court records show he was evicted from three separate Queens apartments between 2014 and 2017 for failing to pay rent. In 2014 he begged a judge to let him back into his apartment so he get his belongings and feed the fish his large fish tank.
“That’s a lie, too,” his roommate said. “He’s a pathological liar.”
There was no fish tank.
