According to the most recent findings of biochemist and research scientist Anthony Samsel, glyphosate is essentially an amino acid that mimics glycine. From this link:

The above adds to the understanding of why and how glyphosate damages human health that is so intricately explained in this Jeffrey Smith/Stephanie Seneff interview:

It was certainly gratifying to see that the DARK Act was defeated in the U.S. Senate by "a tidal wave of calls from angry food consumers". A list of how senators voted can be found here:

Not surprisingly, my state's senators (Ohio) split: Sherrod Brown (D) voted NO and Rob Portman (R/up for re-election) voted YES.
But back to the original article, this statement is most disturbing:
"And once it is into our biology, there is no effective way for our immune system, or for man, to get rid of it and replace it, molecule by molecule, with the original glycine."
Perhaps the C's can shed some light on this critical problem.

How Glyphosate mimics our basic amino acid, and gets into our cells, tissues, chromosome and DNA
Dec 7, 2015 — As if Glyphosate, the main killer chemical in Monsanto's VisionMax and RoundUp herbicides were not bad enough already. Now we have further and far more damaging information coming from scientist Anthony Samsel of Deerfield, New Hampshire.
A renowned biochemist and research scientist that has been studying Glyphosate, and other potentially harmful chemicals for a long time, he has four peer reviewed scientific papers already published, along with Dr. Stephanie Seneff, on how Glyphosate provides a pathway to various modern diseases.
Now, Samsel has made a more fundamental finding on the chemical and is working on his fifth paper on it. And that finding, for the first time disclosed by anybody on earth, is that glyphosate is essentially an amino acid, but like no other naturally occurring one. And it tries to mimic one that is part of our biology.
Some 21 amino acids are the basic building blocks of life on this planet as we understand it. Glycine is one of them, the simplest and most basic, and it performs a long chain of invaluable tasks in the biology of the living kingdom.
Glyphosate mimics glycine. Our body may not distinguish between the two, perhaps because in our evolutionary history, our immune system never had to distinguish between glycine, which we absolutely need in every cell, every tissue, every chromosome and DNA strand, and glyphosate, which we absolutely do not need in our biology. It did not have to learn the distinction because glyphosate was not found naturally anywhere. For all practical purposes, it is an extra-terrestrial chemical, synthetically produced in the lab. And now, we have released it everywhere in nature, recklessly.
And so, like carrying a bunch of deadly soldiers in the belly of the Trojan Horse, glyphosate slips into our system essentially replacing glycine whenever and wherever it can, and creates an avalanche of unpredictable diseases, health hazards and defects of all kinds.
Pretending to be the amino acid Glycine, it can cross the blood-brain barrier and start interfering in our brain chemistry. It can mis-fold proteins and cause them to behave unnaturally and perform unintended tasks with potential negative effects for us.
It can and does get into our bone marrow and start producing T-cells and helper cells with this rogue chemical fitted in place of glycine. It can get into our DNA and RNA and be responsible for producing potentially dangerous transgenic mutants in our offsprings that will show negative effects even a few generations down the line.
And once it is into our biology, there is no effective way for our immune system, or for man, to get rid of it and replace it, molecule by molecule, with the original glycine.
This is what I gathered, and pondered, after speaking with Anthony Samsel, but you can hear him speak about it himself in the attached video. Being a scientist, he speaks with reserve and caution.
But even he ends up displaying emotion when he concludes his talk with the comment that production, distribution, an use of Glyphosate needs to be banned and all operation involving it should be shut down - lock, stock, and barrel.
Cheers and thanks. - Tony Mitra
