Tracy Beanz, Editor-in-Chief of UncoverDC, joins Pags to sound the alarm on a disturbing new study revealing toxic metals in powdered baby formula. Conducted by Moms Across America, the report found that 100% of the 40 samples tested positive for aluminum and lead, with many exceeding the EPA’s limits for drinking water. Beanz lays out what this means for American families and slams government agencies for their lackluster response. “What does HHS do? They respond,” she says, citing the agency’s focus on public messaging instead of immediate safety action through their so-called “Operation Stork Speed.”
Beanz doesn’t stop there. She dives into the broader issue of food safety, sharing how families can investigate what’s really in the products they buy and feed their children. “It’s been happening for a long time,” she warns, referring to the government’s failure to enforce stricter health standards on baby food and formula. The conversation then pivots to the growing controversy surrounding SNAP and the “SodaGate” scandal—where states are quietly passing waivers to avoid restrictions that would prevent SNAP funds from being used to purchase sugary sodas and junk food.
From government overreach to health neglect, Beanz pulls no punches in this revealing conversation. If you care about what’s going into your family’s body—or your taxpayer dollars—don’t miss the full interview for the facts, the fight, and what comes next.
