🔥 RFK Jr. just laid out major reforms on baby formula, cell phones in schools, and food safety!

🧵THREAD Image
Secretary Kennedy, HHS, and the FDA are launching "Operation Stork Speed" to improve baby formula safety.

They plan to do comprehensive tests to review the formulations for the first time since 1998!

“We're gonna review the formulations for the first time since 1998 and do comprehensive tests to make sure this is the healthiest product that our kids can have.”
Secretary Kennedy has said he wants to get cell phones out of schools.

“There are many other countries in the world that have banned cell phones in our schools.”

“Cell phones also produce electric magnetic radiation, which has been shown to do neurological damage to kids when it's around them all day.”

“Cell phone use and social media use on the cell phone has been directly connected with depression, poor performance in schools, suicidal ideation, and with substance abuse.”
Secretary Kennedy announced he will be getting rid of the GRAS standards for new products!

“We are going to get rid of the GRAS standards for new products. We're going to go back and review all of these old ingredients to make sure that they are safe, and we're going to encourage these companies to get rid of them as quickly as possible.”
Secretary Kennedy also made clear he will be approaching allowing harmful ingredients in our food differently than past HHS secretary’s.

“In this country, food ingredients are innocent till proven guilty.”

“In Europe and other countries they have to prove themselves safe before you add them, and we ought to have that kind of protection for American citizens.”

The MAHA movement is officially moving into D.C.

The MAHA Institute is hosting its inaugural event—bringing long overdue attention to issues ignored for decades.

For years, people have fought for medical freedom without a real platform.

Now, they finally have one.

Thread🧵
Co-President Tony Lyons opened by outlining the MAHA Institute’s core goals.

“I've known Bobby Kennedy for more than fifteen years.”

“I have no doubt whatsoever that he was put on this planet to do the work that he's doing now.”

“The MAHA movement has the ability to set up a system where we can really be a city on a hill.”

“We can really be the kind of country that we all want it to be, and we can protect our children.”

“That's what we're gonna do as the MAHA Institute.”

“We're gonna be an incubator for ideas, for policies that really impact the American people.”

“The MAHA movement is really about mothers.”

“It's about mothers wanting to take care of their children, and they see that their children have been poisoned.”

“Half the children in The United States have a chronic disease. That has to change.”

“This is the time to address them.”
Co-President Mark Gorton followed, sharing the origins of the MAHA Institute.

“The MAHA Institute is born out of the MAHA Movement, which comes from Bobby Kennedy's campaign for President.”

“All of us here are used to how government in America typically runs, where the large corporate interests dominate the system and they control the outcomes of our government.”

“There have been people around the country who have been fighting this for years against enormous odds.”

“And now through really one of the most inspiring movements in American history, all of these people around the country have coalesced into the MAHA movement, which carried Donald Trump into office and Bobby Kennedy into the leadership of HHS.”

“The MAHA Institute is serving the function of helping to coordinate and channel the energy of all of these people around the country and connect them with people in government.”

RFK Jr. just made 7 MAJOR promises for the next year.

Under his leadership, HHS is moving “more aggressively than ANY other administration in history.”

MAHA is about to change everything.

🧵Thread Image
Follow us for breaking news threads on EVERYTHING new in the MAHA movement! 🔥

Today, RFK Jr. laid out 7 key MAHA priorities over the next year:🧵
RFK Jr. began by laying out the tragic state of American health.

“Debilitating disease, contaminated food, toxic environments, addiction, mental illness affect families across every race, class and political belief.”

Under President Trump and RFK’s MAHA agenda, reversing chronic disease is the core mission at HHS.

“The US remains the sickest developed nation and we spend $4.5 trillion annually on healthcare, 2-3 times more per capita than comparable nations.”

“Clearly, something is structurally and systemically wrong with our approach.”

RFK Jr., Dr. Makary, Dr. Bhattacharya, and Dr. Oz just laid out their vision for the future of HHS.

Here’s what they said—and why it matters.

Thread🧵 Image
RFK Jr. opened the interview with Bret Baier by highlighting how uniquely close his relationship is with the heads of his agencies.

“We're friends. We go to lunch together. We stay at each other's homes. We vacation together. We're also aligned in our vision.”

“Friendship is based upon shared values, and that's the strongest bond that holds people together.”

“We all share a vision that's been a lifelong vision for all of us, which is to make our country healthy, to have evidence based science, and to have gold standard replicable science.”
The men then went around the room, each outlining their agency’s goals.

Dr. Makary was first up.

“We wanna focus the FDA on cures and meaningful treatments.”

“Why does it take ten years on average for drugs to come to market”

“Why are we blaming children for being sick and not looking at our food supply?”

“Why are we thinking it's a willpower problem as we watch half of our nation's children with belly pain or attention deficit disorder on medications?”

MAHA: Take a deep breath.

Before you tear down Dr. Casey Means’ nomination as Surgeon General—take a step back.

4 years ago, the Surgeon General was attacking “Covid-19 misinformation.”

Her nomination is actually a MAJOR win for MAHA.

🧵Thread Image
Image
Many are bringing up that she left her surgical residency early.

But she didn’t leave medicine—she left a broken system that wasn’t addressing the root causes of disease.

She’s continued practicing functional medicine and co-founded a health company focused on metabolic health.

She’s still been doing the work—just not in a hospital.

Her bestselling book Good Energy has lays out the exact roadmap to reverse chronic disease in America.

She’s not guessing.

She’s been building solutions.Image
Others claim she hasn’t said enough about vaccines.

First: MAHA is about much more than just vaccines. Her focus is on nutrition and chronic disease.

Second: She actually has addressed vaccines on major platforms, including Megyn Kelly’s show.

“As someone who is a hopefully soon-to-be mother who’s gonna be making decisions about vaccines for my own children, the idea that the FDA that’s regulating vaccines is a revolving door with the companies who make them …

And that 75% of the FDA’s drug budget comes from Pharmaceutical companies …

And then there’s this weird cross-talk between the CDC and the FDA where the CDC is then jamming a vaccine schedule down our throat that’s bigger than most other countries in the world …

And that we can’t question it or else we’re shamed for being terrible anti-vax people …

Then add on the fact that these companies have legal immunity for wrongdoing and harm …

We’re living in bizarro world. I think Americans just said, enough of this. There’s almost this assumption that we’re dumb and that we can’t understand what’s going on.”

The media is lying to you—again.

They’re calling RFK Jr.’s autism database “invasive” and “dangerous.”

But what they aren’t telling you is that using Medicare and Medicaid data for disease research is standard government practice.

They’ve never objected—until now.

Thread🧵 Image
RFK Jr.’s plan is simple—and it’s already underway.

NIH and CMS just announced a landmark partnership to build a real-world data platform focused first on autism.

They’ll analyze Medicare and Medicaid claims, electronic medical records, and wearable data—with full compliance to privacy laws.

It’s not invasive. It’s not forced. It’s based on existing data from those already enrolled in federal programs.

“We’re pulling back the curtain—with full transparency and accountability—to deliver the honest answers families have waited far too long to hear.” — RFK Jr.

This is the pilot for something bigger: uncovering root causes of chronic disease and improving care nationwide.

But the media wants you to believe it’s some kind of dystopian surveillance plot.

Because telling the truth doesn’t serve their agenda.Image
And just like that—the media went into full RFK Jr. derangement mode.

Instead of applauding a serious effort to understand autism, they smeared it as “dangerous” and “extreme.”

Not because of what it is—but because he’s the one doing it. Image
