Fears of a cancer cover-up in state suffering mystery spike in tumors
A mystery surge in cancer in Iowa has been blamed on alcohol – but locals fear another major factor is being ignored or suppressed.
DailyMail.com visited Iowa and spoke to doctors and locals who had cancer themselves or knew of dozens who had, but one common thread stood out – none of them were heavy drinkers.
And while a report published in early 2024 highlighted alcohol as a major health concern, locals are trying to raise awareness about another contributor: agricultural chemicals – of which Iowa uses more than any other state.

‘Ticking time bomb’: Plunging office values alarm Washington
Four and a half years after the pandemic sent workers home, the office property bill is finally coming due.
The market for office buildings — already reeling from higher vacancy rates amid the rise in remote-work policies — has been crushed by high borrowing costs, and while the Federal Reserve is at last preparing to cut interest rates, it may be too little, too late. Investors, banks and property owners are now beginning to accept that some commercial buildings will never recover their pre-pandemic value, and that’s leading to a steady drumbeat of distressed sales.
The market’s troubles have caught the attention of Congress — with one New York lawmaker calling it a “ticking time bomb” for banks as nearly $1 trillion in commercial real estate loans are coming due this year. Faced with vacant office buildings and a shortage of millions of homes to meet demand, a bipartisan group of lawmakers is trying to make it easier for developers to convert underused properties into housing.

Bill, I’ve lived in Des Moines, for 12 years now. Duh. Of course it’s the pesticides. You should taste our water here too. But it’s also the covid shots. I’d stake it all on the likelihood that every one of these cancer patients has had multiple jabs. And they all wore masks. You won’t find people more sheeplish than here in Iowa. And dense between the ears medical people.
This is what gives the lie to all RFKJ’s high-sounding rhetoric about healthy Americans. NO midwestern governor is going to say no to Monsanto. NONE. And Trump needs the governors to win and the governors need the support of state legislators and local big-shots to win. It’s a lost cause, honestly. We don’t need no zyklon-B. We’ve got the newest version.
Thanks
