The Food and Drug Administration has upgraded its classification of a broccoli recall initially reported in late December, labeling it as “Class I” — the agency’s most serious recall category. Braga Fresh, of Salinas, California, had initially issued an “advisory” for a specific lot of Marketside Broccoli Florets in late December, after Health and Human Services workers discovered Listeria monocytogenes in “multiple samples” from a Texas Walmart. The broccoli had been distributed to Walmart stores in 20 states: Alaska, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming.

We just went to our local Wal-Mart in Bluffton SC. Armed security at each entrance. My husband got to talking to one and asked if there was a problem in the store. The reply was NO, it is a new policy and will be from 11am til closing every day. Asked if they are authorized to use force if necessary and was told, “YES” there is a new President, new rules,”. Has anyone else seen this or has it been a policy at other stores? We were stunned.

State AGs urge Costco to 'ditch DEI' as other companies jump ship from progressive HR efforts.. Attorneys general in 19 states are warning Costco "to end all unlawful discrimination imposed by the company through diversity, equity, and inclusion" policies to reflect President Donald Trump's recent executive order booting DEI out of federal agencies and warning private sectors to do the same. "Racial discrimination is both immoral and illegal. Race-based employment hiring violates state and federal law, and as the chief law enforcement officer of Kansas, I intend to enforce the law vigorously," Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach .. Trump's executive...

Big retailers already dominate Americans’ lives. Their grasp on consumers is only getting stronger. The three biggest retailers by revenue in the U.S.— Costco , Walmart and Amazon AMZN — accounted for about 11% of total retail sales back in 2014, based on their reported figures measured against national retail sales data from the Commerce Department. Their share of the market has been growing since then. In their last three reported quarters, the behemoths selling everything from groceries to appliances made up about 17% of retail sales and roughly 57% of retail sales growth over that period. Supermarkets have been...

This is an urgent plea for help from Prairie Lady; these are her posts: [copied] I JUST got off the phone with my neice.

Just days after grocery giant Kroger told The Washington Stand that the abortion drug mifepristone was listed on their Health Savings Club pharmacy website due to an “error” and removed the listing, wholesale giant Sam’s Club has likewise stated that it too erroneously listed the abortion pill on its pharmacy website due to an error committed by a “third-party vendor.” On Wednesday, Live Action News reported that Sam’s Club’s previous online listing of the abortion drug was removed, with a spokesperson telling the outlet, “We use a third-party vendor to aggregate medication pricing, and their tool provided incorrect information.” On...

Though they claim to stand for the little guy, pro-crime progressives are making life worse for low-wage workers everywhere: Witness the latest development from America’s theft-slammed retail sector — Walmart testing out bodycams for employees. The idea is to get “unruly” customers on tape, presumably both as a deterrent and as legal butt-covering in case things go south. This comes after retail outlets large and small have moved to locking up some, most or all of their items to guard against theft. And after a raft of high-profile stories of employees — remember, these are people earning very little, with...

He went on to urge viewers to check inside of toilet paper dispensers and the roll itself before using it due to risks of contamination by IV drug users and their needles. Devan accompanied his message with a picture of a toilet roll with red holes poked through it - appearing to be blood-like spots along the side. 'This is exactly what I'm talking about,' he said while pointing at the photo on the screen. 'This is from needle using junkies going into the bathroom, taking that cover that's over it off, sticking their needles in there and cleaning their...

'This is the biggest win yet for our 'movement to end wokeness' in corporate America,' ....Walmart also agreed to stop using the terms 'DEI' and 'Latinx' in official communication. Some of the sweeping changes include abandoning a $100 million racial equity center set up in 2020 after the police killing of George Floyd and leaving a prominent LGBTQ+ gay rights index. The retail juggernaut also won't be giving priority treatment to suppliers that are 51 percent-owned by women, minorities, veterans or members of the LGBTQ community. Walmart has said that it will better monitor its third-party marketplace items to make...

On CNN This Morning, CNN senior political analyst Mark Preston warned that under Trump's proposed tariff increase on China, "when you go to Walmart, you're not going to get something for like $3.99. It's going to be $13.99." That's a 250% price increase! Trump has proposed increasing existing tariffs on Chinese goods by only 10%. So Mark, where's the additional 240% coming from? CNN correspondent Jeff Zeleny agreed with Preston's absurd scaremongering: "Exactly." Get the rest of the story and view the video here.
