Mentally dysfunctional people. like those who favor butchering children for gender reassignments must be included in this health program... More than 14,000 are now damned to life long pharma dependency... This 'Mengele mentality' must stop....

We need a new approach to big pharma. Taking a pill for EVERYTHING is not healthy.

This is fantastic Trump joins up with Kennedy Jr. USA definitely needs better health. Big pharma and food need to stop harming us citizens for profit. It's disgusting.

Please keep reporting on MAHA developments. These concerns are real, and pose a tremendous threat to the "medical industrial complex" that profits from treatments. More treatments, more profit. Even Bill Maher gets it to some degree as he stated years ago that "the money isn't in the healthy people or the dead people, it's in the sick people."

As an RN, I see the problems with our healthcare from the front lines. There need to be changes made. Let's start with looking at the problems caused by High Fructose Corn Syrup and work to eliminate that from our foods.

Big pharma and the food industry need to take out the harmful chemicals that are making us chronically ill. We spend the most money as a nation on healthcare and are the sickest. Things need to change.

What foods are eaten and in what amount are the main drivers of obesity, not "toxins." This is the wrong-headed thinking of the organic food movement, a lifestyle brand with no demonstrated health benefits.

Parts of MAHA sounds as if they want to legislate what a person should be eating. That’s not going to work. It’s the same as trying to ban all firearms.

USA definitely needs to revamp what they feed the average American. Our food is loaded with toxins, preservatives, bad oils, and all types of sugars. Europe does much better. This country is crumbling from all sides and this is another area that needs improvement. I pray Trump wins and can fix many of the problems, especially migrant entry, inflation, and protecting America from the Middle East terrorists that want to take over our once wonderful country.
