Colorado’s main suer runs on Trump

By Tom Anthony | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice According to Tucker Carlson interviewee Joe Kent, erstwhile Director of Counterterrorism, it was Netanyahu that induced the US to attack Iran. Of course Trump is taking the blame and that goes with being President, as executive decisions have their consequences. High gas prices aren't popular with too many people (we're excepting the ones who own oil wells) and so being anti-Trump has gotten somewhat easier on both sides of the aisle. My dad was a doctor and started out a Republican (although, as a Catholic, he did support Kennedy and, we'll have to include, partnered with Roy Romer in a ski resort venture). After me hearing years of ranting about "socialized medicine" he capitulated to the Democrats later in life to the poi...

Questions Mount Over NIH Oversight After Alleged Virus Smuggling Incident

By Greg Piper | Just the News "We don’t want Montana to be the next Wuhan," Big Sky Country senator says, asking inspector general to probe federal lab after RFK Jr. confirms whistleblower allegations. NIH has dribbled out details on pathogen accidents. The ABC political thriller Scandal ran for six seasons. If it were a reality show, The Real Scandals of Rocky Mountain Laboratories might be getting renewed for a ninth season. Sen. Tim Sheehy, R-Montana, urged Department of Health and Human Services Inspector General March Bell to immediately investigate "safety, security, and personnel practices at RML," a BSL-4 facility on the west side of Montana near the Idaho border that conducts federal research on the most dangerous path...

RFK Jr Launches Major Push To Reduce Antidepressant Overprescribing

By Jon Brown | The Christian Post Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced a sweeping new initiative earlier this week to reduce what he characterized as the overprescription of antidepressant selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and other psychotropic medications, especially for children. "Psychiatric medications have a role in care, but we will no longer treat them as the default," Kennedy said at a Monday summit on mental health and overmedicalization hosted by the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Institute in Washington, D.C. "We will treat them as one option, to be used when appropriate, with full transparency and with a clear path off when they are no longer needed." The plan being rolled out by HHS emphasiz...

From insider to critic: Ex-White House official questions public health orthodoxy

By Katy Talento | AllBetter Substack I kept Robert F. Kennedy Jr. out of the West Wing. Now I owe him an apology. It was 2017. We had hauled the CEOs of a bunch of pharmaceutical companies into the Oval Office so that President Trump could berate them about their drug prices. (Always a good time.) Somehow, the word “vaccine” came up in the conversation. When that happens in the president’s presence, then, now, last month, and probably next week, like clockwork, he always starts telling the same story. A woman who worked for him at the Trump Organization back in the day. Her two-year-old son, who was “perfect, beautiful, magnificent, flawless.” Then he got a shot and he was “just gone. Gone. Never the same. Beautiful boy. Then, just gone.” The CEOs all shrank back and tu...

Colorado Supreme Court Confronts Trans Care Dispute With Federal Funding at Stake

By Michael Karlik | Colorado Politics Some members of the Colorado Supreme Court expressed discomfort on Tuesday with having to decide whether to order Children’s Hospital Colorado to resume providing certain services to transgender children, which could trigger a “death sentence” if the federal government imposes consequences. “I’m assuming there’s no middle ground here with the federal administration, in terms of letting the patients who are already in treatment complete their treatment but just not take on any new patients for gender-affirming care?” asked Justice Carlos A. Samour Jr. during oral arguments. There is not, responded the hospital’s lawyer. “We believe that the care can be provided safely and effectively,” added attorney Patrick O’Rourke. “But ul...

Medical Group Recommends Delaying Transgender Surgeries Until Age 19

By Molly Parks | Washington Examiner The American Society of Plastic Surgeons released a statement recommending doctors refuse gender-related surgeries for transgender patients under the age of 19, a move the Trump administration is calling a win. “ASPS concludes there is insufficient evidence demonstrating a favorable risk-benefit ratio for the pathway of gender-related endocrine and surgical interventions in children and adolescents. ASPS recommends that surgeons delay gender-related breast/chest, genital, and facial surgery until a patient is at least 19 years old,” the ASPS recommendation reads. The Department of Health and Human Services and HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. praised the group for its recomme...

Trump Admin Moves Aggressively to Reshape Food and Chemical Policy

By Amanda Head | Just the News The MAHA Effect: The chemical review overhaul seeks to comprehensively reassess food additives, pesticides, and environmental toxins to reduce their role in chronic diseases and improve overall safety standards. On Wednesday, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin announced that following an extensive and comprehensive review, required under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), the agency will now regulate the usage of a variety of five common chemicals used for pliability in materials used for construction and industrial applications.  The list includes: Butyl Benzyl Phthalate (BBP), Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP), Dicyclohexyl Phthalate (DCHP), Diethylhexyl Phthalate (DEHP), and Diisobutyl Phthalate (DIBP).  ...

White House Links Tylenol in Pregnancy to Autism, Pushes New Treatment Path

By Amanda Prestigiacomo | Daily Wire Trump said Tylenol use during pregnancy is linked to increased risk of autism. On Monday, President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced findings into the concerning spike in national autism rates, labeling one medication as a potential cause of autism, and another as a potential treatment. It was announced that the use of acetaminophen during pregnancy is tied to an increased risk of autism. Acetaminophen is the active ingredient in Tylenol, one of the most widely used medications globally for pain relief and fever reduction. “Taking Tylenol is not good. I’ll say it. It’s not good,” Trump said, noting that it might be necessary if a pregnant woman spikes a very high fever. “There’s ...

RFK Jr. and Dr. Oz unveil $50B plan to transform collapsing rural health care

By Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Dr. Mehmet Oz | Commentary, USA Today Rural America deserves a health care system built for reality, not one that's made up of urban leftovers that leave rural health care needs as an afterthought. Despite higher rates of chronic disease in rural areas vs. their urban counterparts, rural America's health care infrastructure is collapsing. Since 2010, about 150 rural hospitals have closed or been converted to other facilities, and fewer than 4 in 10 rural hospital beds are typically occupied – substantially less than urban areas. Rather than repeating the mistakes of the past, President Donald Trump's administration will deliver unprecedented investments to rebuild rural health care infrastructure and address the root cause...

Kennedy Center memorial shows the movement Charlie Kirk built is not ending

By Stephen Sorace | Fox News Top Republican leaders including House Speaker Johnson speak at faith-filled vigil for 31-year-old https://www.youtube.com/live/M_FRi5hum98?feature=shared Hundreds of mourners attended a memorial service and prayer vigil for Charlie Kirk at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., on Sunday night to honor the political activist’s legacy after an assassin’s bullet took his life last week. Lines of people, many of whom were wearing black or shirts and pins with the word "freedom," were seen waiting to enter. Inside, young children were seen running up and down the aisles as their parents sang praise and worship songs at the faith-filled memorial, where top Republican leaders, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, delivered remarks. ...
