Respect for the rule of law is foundational to how America became the greatest nation in the history of the world — with a military known everywhere as no greater friend, no worse enemy. They swear an oath to the Constitution, not the president.

Safety & efficacy, not fear & favor, should guide FDA leadership. Under Dr. Makary, the FDA is losing its credibility as the global gold standard.

From day one, Calley Means has been promoting his own company through MAHA policy. After months of oversight efforts, he now says he’ll divest. I’m staying on the case to watch for his next grift & to find out just how much he raked in with this one.

In America, there should be equal opportunity for everyone and special privileges for no one. The Epstein scandal is a grotesque example of the rich & powerful getting away with crimes that shock the conscience of everyday Americans.

My pitch to the president on Fox for a health insurance deal: extend ACA for the middle class for one year while Congress does fixes to:

Directly fund patients through flex spending accounts (ICHRAs/HSAs)
+
Directly fund doctors & nurses through tripling community health clinics.

Mistrust and paranoia grow when fear & favor replace safety & efficacy. Makary needs to lead the FDA, not follow RFK Jr.

While serving as a White House advisor, Calley Means helped craft the MAHA agenda to financially benefit his company, True Medicine Inc.

@massgovernor.bsky.social is stepping up on SNAP, just like she has on science and energy, when Trump acts illegally. But no governor can backfill the need. It’s a federal program and needs to be federally delivered.

Americans support Medicaid. Where MAGA tries to cut it, Democrats should make it a quality, affordable option for long-term care for the middle class.

The CDC’s endorsement of separating the MMR vaccine into three shots is based not on science but on “what I feel”, according to the president. It will require more doctor visits and more needles, reducing uptake and increasing measles rates.

The Speaker has prevented Congress from even voting on tariffs — the biggest tax hike in modern American history.

They want the mandate but not the accountability.

That's not leadership.
October 5, 2025 at 12:40 PM
No matter how hard the Speaker tries to change the subject, Medicaid is about health care, not about immigration. Americans see through the talking points and understand that their health-care bills will go up so that taxes for the rich can go down.
October 3, 2025 at 11:35 AM
The middle class is paying more for everything in Trump's economy. There are simple, popular policies on Medicaid & tariffs that could help. To lower prices, the president should get to yes on them in today's meeting.

Necessity is the mother of invention. MAGA is cutting Medicaid. An upcoming waiver process, though, gives Massachusetts the opportunity to invent a stronger version of MassHealth that lowers costs and improves access.

If bagels cost $7 in one market and $400 at another across the street, you’d ask the grocery managers some tough questions. Well, that’s Rx drugs under the control of the pharmacy benefit managers — the middlemen of drug pricing. www.cap-rx.com/insights/ah0...
