RFK Jr.’s confirmation would be a blow to Big Pharma and a big win for health



The Washington, D.C., Beltway publications left no doubt about who stood to lose the most after President Trump nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as secretary of health and human services.

Politico highlighted the uproar, reporting fierce opposition from Washington lobbyists to Trump’s decision to place Kennedy at the helm of the $3 trillion health agency. Kennedy’s proposals — tighter pesticide regulations, re-examining vaccine safety, banning processed foods in schools, and overhauling health and food agencies — pose significant threats to corporate profits. Caught off guard, lobbyists are now scrambling to block Kennedy’s Senate confirmation and leveraging connections to minimize risks.

RFK Jr. has consistently unveiled critical truths and fought for transparency in public health.

As a physician committed to my patients, my community, and my country, I fully support Kennedy’s nomination. His lifelong dedication to health, safety, and medical autonomy makes him the ideal candidate for this vital Cabinet position. President Trump deserves praise for this bold and courageous choice.

The United States faces an epidemic of poor health. Over 80% of adults suffer from at least one chronic illness, while obesity rates among children and adults have reached record highs. Simultaneously, drug prices and health care costs continue to soar. Substance abuse plagues society, and mental illness rates rise every year. The role of secretary of health and human services requires a leader with diverse expertise, a broad perspective, and a deep understanding of both health care and the forces shaping the system.

For decades, Kennedy has worked tirelessly for the health and welfare of America’s children. Despite relentless accusations of spreading “disinformation” and “conspiracy theories,” Kennedy is not “anti-vaccine.” Instead, he has championed transparency in vaccine efficacy and injury data, which threatens powerful profit-driven interests. Even the treatments he promoted for COVID-19, such as ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine — once dismissed as “discredited” — have quietly and surreptitiously returned to good standing.

RFK Jr. has consistently unveiled critical truths and fought for transparency in public health. He revealed that no double-blind randomized controlled trials exist for childhood vaccines on the CDC's schedule, a fact that demands scrutiny. Kennedy has also investigated disparities in disease prevalence, finding higher rates of autoimmune diseases, neurological disorders, allergies, and autism in vaccinated populations compared to unvaccinated ones, raising questions that require answers, not dismissal.

Kennedy has vowed to end the financial ties between pharmaceutical companies and medical journals, which have eroded research integrity and left physicians without trustworthy sources of unbiased data. He advocates removing harmful additives, such as trans fats, artificial coloring, and preservatives, from America’s food supply — ingredients banned in many other countries.

Kennedy is also committed to ending pharmaceutical advertising on television, a practice unique to the United States and New Zealand, which compromises media independence. His approach prioritizes the four pillars of medical ethics — autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice — seeking to restore medical autonomy, personal sovereignty, and an end to mandates that strip individuals of choice.

I understand that Kennedy’s nomination to oversee the massive federal health apparatus is threatening to many, including those associated with the pharmaceutical industry, doctors and the health care systems that employ them, lobbyists, insurance companies, media outlets that have become accustomed to massive pharmaceutical advertising dollars, and the food industry that maximizes profits by using inexpensive but toxic ingredients. But we need qualified leadership at HHS that prioritizes science, the protection of public health, and the well-being of all Americans. The health and future of our country depend on it.

Change, especially radical change, can be difficult — especially for those who have financially and professionally benefited from the status quo. However, our health care system is desperately in need of radical change, which is why I urge the Senate to confirm Kennedy’s appointment quickly so that he can begin the much-needed work to mend our health care system and to make America healthy again.

Fauci’s empire exposed: How Trump can cure America’s health bureaucracy



Earlier this week, I wrote a column exposing the cancer metastasizing within America’s body politic — a malignancy created and nurtured by the progressive project over the last century. I focused on how this cancer had infected the “eyes and ears” of our nation: the media. From Big Tech suppressing dissent to mass media corrupting public discourse, the disease has eaten away at our ability to pursue the common good through civil disagreement and the free flow of information.

But this cancer has deeper roots, spreading into the very organs meant to protect and nourish our republic: our immune system.

The 2024 election isn’t just a mandate. It’s a diagnosis.

The Department of Health and Human Services, specifically the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Food and Drug Administration, once acted as the body’s natural defenses. Today, the agencies resemble a compromised immune system — infested with power-hungry elites and corrupted by self-interest.

This failure was laid bare during the COVID-19 pandemic, which shredded the last vestiges of trust Americans had in their government. At the center of this catastrophe stood Dr. Anthony Fauci, the epitome of progressive rot — a man who turned his government post into an untouchable kingdom.

The Fauci empire

Fauci’s career should serve as a cautionary tale. As the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, he wielded unparalleled influence, setting pandemic policies that devastated lives and businesses. Behind the scenes, his agency funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology — the likely source of the COVID-19 outbreak.

Even when confronted with this inconvenient truth, Fauci sidestepped accountability. In 2021, Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) exposed his agency’s involvement in funding this dangerous research. Months later, an NIH official confirmed it. Yet Fauci remains unscathed, unaccountable, and celebrated by the elites.

When retiring in 2022, Fauci boasted the highest salary of any federal employee — over $400,000 annually. His golden parachute includes a taxpayer-funded security detail at a cost of $15 million and, as revealed by watchdog group Open the Books, hidden royalties from pharmaceutical companies. These revelations paint a damning picture of a man — and a system — that enriches itself at the expense of the American people.

The deification of bureaucracy

When Fauci infamously claimed, “If you’re attacking me, you’re attacking science,” he wasn’t just defending his actions; he was embodying the progressive vision of government: a pantheon of unelected “experts” ruling unchallenged over the masses. Agencies like the NIH, CDC, and FDA, once meant to serve the public, now tower over us like Greek temples, demanding faith while suppressing dissent.

This progressive model — centralized control under the guise of expertise — is the cancer undermining our republic. It prioritizes bureaucratic power over individual freedom and accountability. Trump’s election represents a rejection of this model. But a rebellion is meaningless without action.

Trump’s window of opportunity

The 2024 election isn’t just a mandate. It’s a diagnosis. Americans are demanding bold action to excise the rot. The federal health bureaucracy must be among Trump’s top priorities. His administration must:

  1. Audit the agencies: Investigate the NIH, CDC, and FDA for abuses of power and conflicts of interest.
  2. Pursue accountability: Hold figures like Fauci accountable for misleading Congress and the American people.
  3. Decentralize power: Transfer authority from federal agencies back to state and local governments.
  4. End corporate cronyism: Shine a light on the relationship between Big Pharma and federal agencies.

This is the next step in America’s surgery — a treatment that targets not just the tumor but the system enabling its growth.

We can no longer allow unelected officials to wield unchecked power. Agencies like the NIH, CDC, and FDA must return to their rightful role: serving the people, not ruling over them. Trump’s presidency offers a rare opportunity to reclaim government of the people, by the people, and for the people.

The cancer is deep, but it’s not untreatable. It will take bold leadership in the Trump administration and the courage to challenge the progressive elites who have corrupted our system.

Calley Means: RFK Jr.'s radical plan for HHS



Former Coca-Cola lobbyist Calley Means first caught Liz Wheeler's eye when he spoke out about the company using “racism” to force the government into putting its product on the food stamps program.

“I thought, ‘What an extraordinary story. This exemplifies the corruption, the ideological corruption, the financial corruption, that is in our health care industry. This revolving door between Big Food and Big Pharma and the federal government,’” Wheeler says.

Now, Means is an adviser to RFK Jr. in the Make America Healthy Again movement that’s taken America by storm.

“I’ve gone from when President Trump first came down that golden escalator ten years ago thinking he’s a threat to democracy to believing that this election is by far the most important victory of our lifetime and, I think, a historic moment in American history where I’ve never been more excited about a president being elected,” Means tells Wheeler.


Wheeler is also thrilled by what’s to come.

“By marrying ‘Make America Great Again’ with ‘Make America Healthy Again,’” Wheeler explains that RFK Jr. and President Trump are telling those with autoimmune diseases, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and obesity that “you don’t have to suffer this.”

And RFK’s plan to ensure they don’t have to suffer as they have been is the best part.

“We’ve heard a couple of promises from Bobby in the past couple days. One of my favorite ones is that he’s going to take all the nutritional scientists out of HHS and either fire them on day one, or if he’s not allowed to fire them, he’s going to build a new headquarters for them in Guam,” Wheeler says.

While the latter part of RFK’s statement was a joke, his plans to reform the American health care system are as serious as it gets.

“We’re going to return to science,” Means says. “I think what bad interests have realized is that there’s nothing higher-level in society than an NIH study. And I’ve actually, Liz, had conversations in the past three days with the senior-most members of the NIH who are defending the institution publicly, who are saying this is an absolute and utter dumpster fire.”

“There’s huge DEI regulations and parameters around what can and can’t be said, a feeling of absolute assault on academic freedom, and from what I’m hearing, when you add it up, eighty to ninety percent of NIH grants and funding goes to pharmaceutical R&D,” Means explains.

“We’re going to get any type of ideology out of our scientific guidelines,” he continues. “And that’s the key to everything.”

Americans Sick Of Meds That Don’t Restore Health Love The Idea Of RFK Leading HHS

It baffles me that people find America's abysmal health statistics less shocking than the appointment of RFK Jr.

Trump’s victory exposes the deep state’s worst fears



Something extraordinary happened in the 2024 election. Conservatives, independents, and even former Democrats rose up and delivered a historic rebuke to the far left. The electoral map didn’t show a mere victory for Donald Trump — it was a political bloodbath. Moreover, for the first time in decades, Republicans are poised to take control of nearly every level of government.

This election was an unmistakable message from voters: America is sick, and we demand a cure.

Institutions meant to safeguard our liberties have become vectors for corruption, collusion, and control.

But before we can tackle the disease, we must diagnose it. What, exactly, is the mandate voters handed to Trump and the GOP? What is the problem that we demand they fix?

The answer is as clear as it is uncomfortable: The United States as we knew it no longer exists. Our freedoms — our sovereignty — have been systematically eroded by forces intent on transforming America into something unrecognizable.

Two of Donald Trump’s first promises as president-elect spoke directly to this. He vowed to eliminate the deep state and end censorship. The fact that these issues even need to be addressed shows how far we’ve strayed.

These proposed changes from the Trump administration are promising, but Trump cannot do this alone. The corruption afflicting this country is systemic. It’s a cancer that has spread through every organ of the body politic, from unelected bureaucrats in Washington to powerful corporations and media conglomerates. This rot has metastasized, just as it did in Europe under Fabian socialism and cultural Marxism. It must be excised.

But how did we get here? The left didn’t stumble into control of our institutions by accident. Its dominance over the media, universities, and culture was the result of a decades-long operation to manufacture consent.

The strategy is laid out plainly in a book by leftist thinker Noam Chomsky: “Manufacturing Consent.” Chomsky wasn’t wrong in his analysis — he was just dead wrong in his prescription. Over the decades, the left co-opted his blueprint to manipulate public opinion, consolidate power, and push its progressive agenda.

The proof is in the state of America today. Look at how the media has been consolidated. In the 1980s, 90% of American media was controlled by over 50 companies. Today, six massive conglomerates control the vast majority of what we read, watch, and hear.

They control the flow of information, shaping narratives to keep the public in the dark. They decide what is “normal” and what is “fringe.” They’ve convinced generations of Americans to accept obvious falsehoods as truth.

This media-industrial complex works hand in glove with the government and elite institutions. It has labeled anyone who questions its authority as a “conspiracy theorist” or “extremist,” all while cozying up to Big Tech and using censorship as a tool to silence dissent.

Donald Trump has promised to sign an executive order on day one banning federal agencies from colluding to censor Americans. He plans to fire bureaucrats who’ve participated in these unconstitutional practices and roll back the protections that allow tech giants to act as unaccountable gatekeepers.

But this is only the beginning.

The cancer runs deeper than just Big Tech or biased news outlets. It extends to the very systems meant to serve and protect us. Government agencies like HHS, NIH, and FDA now prioritize profits for Big Pharma and Big Food over the health of Americans. The military-industrial complex wages endless wars without congressional approval — in our name but without our consent. Institutions meant to safeguard our liberties have become vectors for corruption, collusion, and control.

Every organ of our national body has been infected. And the first step in curing this disease is restoring the free flow of information — our eyes and ears.

Without independent media, without honest debate, the cancer will keep coming back. That’s why I call on this incoming administration to prioritize breaking up media monopolies, ending corporate-government partnerships, and empowering alternative platforms.

The stakes couldn’t be higher. We must act now or risk losing the republic altogether. The American people have made their mandate clear: We demand accountability, transparency, and freedom.

It’s time to clean house.
