In more great news, yesterday’s Wall Street Journal ran a story headlined, “Trump Picks a ‘MAHA’ Movement Leader for Surgeon General.” The UK Independent’s headline sneered, “Trump picks conspiracy theorist ‘wellness influencer’ Casey Means with no medical license to replace Fox contributor as Surgeon General.”

The U.S. Surgeon General is the nation’s top public health communicator, technically the head of the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps (USPHS), a 6,000-member uniformed swarm of health bureaucrats. The Surgeon General issues ‘public health advisories’ and publishes official reports, with well-known examples including 1964’s stop smoking campaign, or 2021’s focus on youth mental health (which obviously failed badly).

These reports often shift public opinion, which in turn shifts political will— making the Surgeon General a soft power health policy weapon. Surgeon General findings are often cited in Congressional hearings, used to justify funding, or incorporated into proposed bills. It’s like a federal think tank with a badge and a podium.

Since late December, Trump had increasinly enraged MAHA folks with the previous, now withdrawn, nomination of Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, who graduated from the prestigious American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine, which is located on the resort-like island nation of St. Maarten. She is also Mike Waltz’s sister-in-law. But those weren’t Janette’s worst PR problems.

Dr. Nesheiwat is a plump jab lover who thinks sex is assigned at birth and calls normal boys and girls “cisgender.” She often praised Biden’s efforts to cancel anti-vaxxer misinformation and gushed over school mask mandates. She blasphemously called the covid vaccines “a gift from God.” You could call her anti-MAHA.

Under growing pressure, or maybe for other reasons, who knows, Trump canceled Janette’s dance card yesterday, nominating instead MAHA favorite Casey Means, an anti-elite and a long-time, pro-natural-health jab adversary.

Dr. Casey Means is a health-freedom unicorn. She’s a well-liked ‘influencer’ and a Stanford-trained MD who defected from the pharmaceutical-industrial complex and now speaks fluent common sense. After leaving her residency in disgust over reactive health-by-pill, Dr. Means co-founded Levels Health, a company that produces inexpensive, non-prescription continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) —the “fitbits” of blood sugar— a device the FDA had essentially reserved for diabetics. By democratizing metabolic data, she snatched a tool from the clinical elite and handed it to the public.

Dr. Means’ 2024 book “Good Energy” proposed that mitochondrial dysfunction, caused by processed foods, toxins, sugar, and chronic stress, is at the root of nearly every chronic disease.

Though Dr. Means holds an M.D. from Stanford, she never completed her residency. To establishment types, that means she isn’t a “real” doctor— shockingly unqualified to give medical advice like they do, such as insisting the COVID shots safely and effectively stop transmission (they didn’t) or that “six-foot social distancing” was firmly grounded in science (it wasn’t).

Means is an anti-expert who thinks health experts are full of pharma-funded balderdash.

It’s fair to call MAHA euphoric over Trump’s new nominee. Her selection is universally seen as a significant victory for the movement, aligning closely with MAHA’s emphasis on holistic health and its well-founded skepticism toward traditional medicine.

President Trump has, once again, transformed controversy into conquest, by dumping MAHA villain Janette Nesheiwat and nominating MAHA favorite Casey Means. It was more terrific news.

………..

Ha….so this… Janette Nesheiwat ….is married to Mike Walz Brother …The whole Damn Family has been “cancelled ” Hmmmm
