    "Destroying Trust in Government" might as well be the Republican Party's motto.

    I'm so sick of the crap Trump's freaking unqualified quack is doing to harm the health and safety of Americans. This sh*t's been ridiculous and outright dangerous from the start. Bye bye experts, bye bye scientists, and hello you tin foil hat conspiracy theorists and snake oil medical cures salesmen.

    MAGA brainwashed themselves that they somehow had superhuman immunity to the common cold known as Covid 19 (that killed like a million Americans) but I wonder how many of these pu$$ies will be begging for a vaccine when people are sh$tting blood from Ebola?

    Trump really has no principles, morals, or integrity. Everything he does is transactional, and by transactional that means what's in it for him. It's not about anything else, and never was.

    $5M in donations to access a multibillion-dollar flavored vape market in the U.S. You’d be crazy not to do it. And that’s why the American public was crazy to elect a POTUS who cares more about billionaires than children’s health.

    Yeah, it's like: "We told you not to trust the government, and now we'll make sure you can't."

    Trump’s pick for surgeon general sells supplement with ingredient banned by Pentagon

    Trump's nominee for surgeon general sells an herbal supplement that contains an ingredient prohibited by the US military and which health experts have warned can cause liver damage.

    Dr Nicole Saphier’s record of selling dietary supplements, which are only loosely regulated in the US, has raised concern among doctors and consumer advocates, some of whom allege she sells “snake oil”.

    Richard Carpiano, a public health scientist and professor of public policy at UC Riverside, said it was concerning that the nominee for a job that depends so much on trust had been selling “pseudoscientific” products for a profit.

    “The US surgeon general should be a highly trusted position as America’s health communicator, bringing to bear the best science, the scientific knowhow,” said Carpiano, who has worked on a surgeon general report in the past. “If she’s willing to push these kinds of wellness products, what else might she push along the way?”

    “Nobody who prides themselves as rigorous about science is in the supplement business,” said Dr Peter Lurie of the Center for Science in the Public Interest, a food and health watchdog organization. Lurie has been an outspoken critic of what he called wellness industry “grifters” inside health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr’s Make America Healthy Again (Maha) movement, who he said sold consumers poorly regulated supplements with unsupported claims.
