If they’re smart, they’ll encourage it.
This endless speed run into the arms of stupidity leaves me breathless.
You’re right it’s a great spectator sport.
I just wish I was on a parallel Earth living in a successful parallel timeline to watch it from.
Under the Executive Order, HHS will implement the following measures:
- The 10-to-1 rule: For every new regulation introduced, at least ten existing regulations must be eliminated.
> * Regulatory cost cap: The total cost of all new regulations in fiscal year 2025 must be significantly less than zero.- Expanded scope: The order applies not only to formal regulations but also to guidance documents, memoranda, policy statements, and similar directives.
- Radical transparency: HHS will publish annual reports detailing estimated regulatory costs and the specific rules being offset, promoting greater transparency and accountability.
HHS, FDA Issue RFI on Deregulatory Plan to Lower Costs and Empower Providers
I doubt this will work out very well.

FDA moves to take prescription fluoride supplements off the market
Back in the days of the John Birch Society, the crackpots were against water fluoridation because it affected everyone, whether they wanted to keep their teeth into old age or not.
By contrast, the first MAHA instinct is to take away the freedom of parents to do what they think is best for their children.
Logically, what should come next is a ban on fluoride toothpaste. Can I expect that, or is big toothpaste more powerful than big pharma?
If freedom to voluntarily use fluoride is really taken away, I expect massive smuggling from Canada. Old prohibition is to gin as new prohibition is to colgate.
A monstrous Commie plot.
President Donald Trump’s new pick for surgeon genera wrote in a recent book that people should consider using unproven psychedelic drugs as therapy and in a newsletter suggested her use of mushrooms helped her find a romantic partner.
To me this reminds me of what I read about the hippies in the 1960s consuming LSD and mushrooms. But I can guess what you naysayers here will think.
Updating the RFK Jr. crazy train:
In hearings on Capitol Hill today, RFK Jr. (who wants an 8-year “pause” in drug development), told lawmakers it’s been a waste of time researching Alzheimer’s disease and drugs to treat it. “Kennedy also justified proposed future cuts to the National Institutes of Health by saying the research agency was plagued by “corruption” and is the reason no cure for Alzheimer’s disease has been found. “When I was a kid, the NIH was the premier gold standard scientific institution in the world. Over the years it was captured by industry,” he said.”
This of course is a grotesque distortion of reality.
Since RFK Jr. and his allies are eliminating all the “corruption” in health agencies, no doubt we’ll have that long-awaited cure for Alzheimer’s in the next four years, right?
Another story today involves Junior’s call to eliminate pesticides/herbicides that are causing chronic diseases, targeting glyphosate in particular. That reportedly is worrying White House overlords, who note the threat that banning pesticides would have on the food supply, not to mention bankrupting farmers who till now have largely supported Republican candidates.
Welp, those farmers can just spray vinegar on their fields and it’ll wipe those weeds right out, as well as neutralizing chemtrails (which Junior has promised to address*).
*Cloud-shouters have been pretty upset with Junior for not stopping contrails chemtrails. When and if he gets around to curtailing commercial jet flights to save us from this menace, it might be enough to get him fired from HHS. But maybe not.
Or maybe get him promoted to President.
I was one of the million or so people who saw “Plandemic” before YouTube took it down. Anyone with even a superficial knowledge of biology could tell it was all made up.
Yeah, I heard about Mr. Brain Worm going swimming in a sewage-laden creek WITH HIS GRANDCHILDREN.
One must wonder if fluoride would affect their current gut microbiomes.
The good news is if he does enough crazy stunts he’ll be dead soon.
Of self-inflicted natural causes. The reechest kind.
To me she’s disqualified for her usage of the term “plant medicine” for taking hallucinogenic mushrooms. Fungi are not plants. But her inaccurate term sounds more touchy-feely than the accurate “fungus medicine”.
What worries me even more than taking fluoride out of the water is his proposal to ban prescription fluoride. Parents will no longer even have a choice to protect their children’s teeth.
But their precious bodily fluids will be so much better!
Plenty of other things that disqualify her long before you get there.
