"Dedicated to the health of our wallets" more like. If the "evidence" is so compelling, why do they have to make such an effort to hard sell it?

Beware of anyone who uses the word "misinformation". That is a not so clever disguise for censorship. That person or organization should not be trusted. Try and keep that word out of your own vocabulary. Since when did information become one sided? Misinformation, means you cannot challenge someone else's facts (opinions), even if they differ from yours.

I really hate to pile on to this thread, but I can’t resist pointing out that Newsmax just ran a long list of the promises Trump is making for his first EOs

Absolutely nothing is in there that relates to MAHA.

"Absolutely nothing is in there that relates to MAHA."

Coincidence?

I think NOT!

Those who shout the most about "protecting people from harmful mis- and disinformation" are the same people who spew the most mis- and disinformation.

This includes most of the "established" medical industry, like this pediatric academy.

Agree that word misinformation is a litmus test for a liar who wants to censor truth.

It appears to be a typical example of corporate sales training.

The purposeful targeting of private medical practices for bankruptcy and takeover was the precursor. As corporate takeover projects gain momentum, they include assimilation programs designed to indoctrinate new employees into the corporate culture.

Pursuit of increased gross profit margin percentages, requires a "whole of staffing" approach to staying on point with the messaging required to achieve those ever-higher percentage goals.

The mythos of "do no harm" was always a matter of individualism. Once the financial ordering of an enterprise is compelled to accommodate layers of non-producing administrative and monetary stakeholders, all becomes subordinate to the mandate for corporate expansion.

Each increment of expansion requires additional layers of administrative and supervisory non-producing staff. It is a self-sustaining feedback loop, one that places the iron law of institutions at the apex of the hierarchy that orders principles and priorities within the organization.

This paradigm should not be miscategorized as "business expansion," it is a discrete category, albeit with a great deal of overlap. The defining characterization separating the two categories, is the erasure of accountability inherent in the limited liability of corporate structure.

That limitation of liability is what erases the constraints on false and fraudulent practices employed to accelerate organizational expansion.

Allowing ubiquity in LLC organizational adoption, has been a central factor in market distortion, over-riding the ability of demand signaling consumer choice to identify and marginalize enterprises that cause harm.

Tone deaf and clueless!

And they wonder why only fools respect them.

I would equate this to an Atheist's Convention on how to combat Biblical Truths.

First up in the panel discussions: There has never been a flood in the history of this area. What gives you the right to tell us any different?

Second panel: How I threw off my fears and embraced the needle.

Third panel: Timothy Leary - the way, the truth, the life.

I feel badly for you; it's got to be embarrassing to admit being a doctor any more.

Better be careful. They might censure you for making a mockery of the profession.

Putting this information together with the three hour dinner Gates head with Trump gives me nightmares. I agree with Lisa above. It is doubtful that RFK has the power to stop this. Perhaps you can at least send the alarms and give the public accurate risk information.

Sorry, my comment was a reply to you Katherine. RFK is a mixed bag of good and bad. We need to watch what he does rather than what he says, and whether he manages to influence Trump in the right direction. I agree with almost everything RFK has said in his two books, but…Bottom line Trump is Trump.

Why is it we have to point out the obvious?

I voted for Trump because he pushes American VALUES. Do I agree with him on everything? Of course not! But that does not stop me from supporting him.

RFK supports health. He is not a nutjob like the media would reflexively like you to believe. He is a passionate supporter of science and health and will sit and intelligently answer questions for hours on end. Do I agree with him on everything? Absolutely not. I find his position on abortion to be inimicable to life! But that does not stop my support for him to lead the HHS.

You want to see nutjobs? Talib, Warren, Schiff, Joy Reid, etc. who spout nonsense one sound-bite at a time.

Did you see him going after Pam Bondi?

It was a hoot. He's at least 10 levels below her.

She's an absolute Pit Bull.

I'm in love.

Yes, I did see that. He's a perfect example of low intelligence working way above their pay grade. Dangerous.

Bondi definitely stood her ground against his insane questions. She IS gorgeous.

Crazy times. Great reporting. I only disagree with you about Kennedy. I believe he will be neutered and muted. Add to that, I don't think his agenda is entirely pure and noble. In this 7 min. vid, you get a sense, from his own mouth, where he really stands. Kind of depressing really. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tJs_NqStPw8
