Just because you can find a paper, doesn't mean it supports the fact quoted.
Your article on carcinogenic - However, given the heterogeneity between the studies included, the numerical risk estimates should be interpreted with caution.
Your article on liver disease - you left out the title "in patients with fatty liver disease"
Kidney disease - association, not causation
Birth defects - from the conclusions "In this paper, we propose that glyphosate's chelation of Mn..may explain the recent increase in incidence of multiple neurological diseases and other pathologies."

Based on glyphosate’s relative risk compared to other pesticides, disease causing bacteria or heavy metal contamination, it just doesn’t rank very high at all.

Hardly definitive conclusions.
