The FDA’s policies have faced significant criticism for jeopardizing consumer safety. For instance:
Drug Approval Issues: Fast-track approvals have introduced drugs with limited evidence of safety, such as Aduhelm for Alzheimer’s, which showed little benefit but posed risks. Harmful drugs are often slow to be withdrawn from the market.
Food Safety Loopholes: The GRAS designation allows companies to self-certify food additives without FDA oversight. Substances like potassium bromate, linked to cancer and banned internationally, remain in U.S. foods due to regulatory gaps.
Industry Influence: Close ties between FDA leaders and corporations raise concerns about conflicts of interest and impartiality in decision-making.
Weak Post-Market Oversight: The FDA lacks resources to monitor and act on safety issues after products are on the market, leaving harmful substances in circulation.
Some decision-makers should be held accountable for actions or policies that have negatively impacted public health and safety. A comprehensive overhaul of the food system is urgently needed to prioritize transparency, improve nutritional standards, and ensure consumer well-being.
Thanks chatgpt!
Thanks brain!
I think it’s hilarious that you think that the guy with the worm eaten brain is going to fix any of that.
Oh and one of the biggest problems with the FDA is its lack of personnel. And this asshole is threatening the fire most of them. Don’t think the next 4 years are going to be a better FDA. It’s going to be an absolute shit show and rather than putting safeguards in place this dipshit’s going to be removing them left and right. Because that’s what the right wing wants, less regulation is the watchword of the Republican party and always has been.
I hate to break it to you but the FDA has always been a shit show! Change is good!
Hate to break it you, but installing a conspiracy theorist anti vaxxer isn’t the change you’re looking for.
At this point I dont care who runs the FDA. My son can do a better job! When has the FDA been great??? Thats right never! You know they approve cancer chemicals in our food that its illegal in the rest of the world. Yet you are concerned with some one who is looking to eliminate it??
“It’s never been good, so let’s just break it even more!”
Removing chemicals from our food is breaking it more???
Their eating the chemicals! Their eating the compounds!
This guy is a fool and I hope he is removed from power.
Start growing your own food, boil rain water for clean water, and avoid close contact with others for the next four years then? Can’t wait to hear about all the cases of preventable diseases, contaminated foods, and new, deadly viruses we get introduced to once these clowns take over…
If they break that infrastructure the long term impact won’t be immediately evident, which means the impetus to fix it will match that of climate change.
And last way longer than 4 yrs. Took Biden 3 yrs to fix Trumps fucked up economy.
Lol Biden didn’t fix shit
Don’t worry, everyone! While we will ignore science and make sure you don’t have vaccines, you’ll have shrooms, rock crystals, and essential oils when bird flu finally hits.
Or I eat a dead bat and become patient zero for Ebola. It’s all good! - RFK Jr
The Democrats should create a shadow presidential cabinet where the health secretary gives science backed advice for people who are looking for it. It would be better to have a centralised political source rather than having everyone independently search Healthline

I’m surprised, with all the whale carcasses and roadkill bears, RFK Jr hasn’t already become patient zero for a pandemic.
Actually, the brain worm never died, it is sentient, and this is part of the RFK worm’s long term goal to infect the nation via destruction of the FDA. The rest is there simply as distraction.

Hey, I play Plague Inc too!
Stem cells? Does he know what party he’s hitched his wagon to?
Consistency? Not even once.
Oh, he knows. They took him on an airplane and made him eat food he had just called “poison” for a photo shoot.
He couldn’t say no, because of the implication.
Obviously if he did say no, they wouldn’t make him eat it. But the thing is, he’s not gonna say no, because of the implication.
Fucking FDA and big Pharma having a stranglehold on vitamins, exercise and su-…and …sunshine…
Don’t forget the FDA’s aggressive suppression of exercise.
Exactly, that’s why I’m so fat and unhealthy!
Finally we can find out how the FDA hid the sun
Yes, make psychedelics legal!
As much as I want psychedelics to be legal, I think putting RFK in charge of anything important is far too high of a price to pay.
Sure, but the deed’s already done. At least may something good come out of it…
Can’t wait for deregulation to result in a tech bro reinvesting his Facebook money into an Uber But For Psychedelics startup that incentivizes mixing 9% more sawdust into my shrooms to maximize yield
I predict he will be unseated within a year
He won’t be confirmed
Hope you’re right
Don’t underestimate the nihilism of the Republican party.
I actually met this mother fucker in Mexico in 1999, giving a talk on habitat preservation at Lagoona San Ignacio to a bunch of C list celebrities who were there to support the Natural Resource Defense Council and it’s efforts to stop Mitsubishi from building a salt extraction plant in the middle of a gray whale breeding sanctuary (super good cause).
I was there with a bunch of high school students who’s rich white parents paid for them to go on an expensive ass field trip to watch whales fuck (and do eco protest activist tourism). Coincidentally, the NRDC was there too and they got really excited to invite a bunch of American highschool students to their media shindig.
RFK Jr. got SUPER drunk and gave a sloppy, rambling, barely coherent speech, thanking people for their generosity. The kids were like “WTF is up with this dude? We’ve never seen grownups act like this!”
We did get to hear some really cool marine biologists talk about gray whales. Then one of THEM (Roger Payne, I think) got really drunk too and told us “Whales are people damn it! But you can’t publish that! You can’t fucking publish that!”
Roger Payne is right.
This is like, one mention of “nuclear wessels” away from being a deleted scene from Star Trek IV.
The biggest mistake was that we didn’t nuke the whales.
Surpression of sunshine must end? Does that mean he wants to ban sun blockers?
You know those shows that’s have a futuristic dystopian society with a bunch of people on drugs?
Looks like we are right on schedule.
thank you alduous huxley for the warning. maybe with the next rise of fascism we’ll be better equipped to listen to the story tellers warning us about the dangers we’re in
Oh good they listed them all in one place so if a doctor references it I know to just get up and walk the fuck out.
It just absolutely sucks that psychedelics and marijuana are being wrapped up in this bullshit.
Yeah, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
It’s a libertarian tactic, Matt Gaetz said weed should be legal and he’s from Florida. It’s a way to get people on board with deregulation
Fucking "libertarian"s giving anarchists a bad name.
