Is cane sugar Coke better for you than high fructose corn syrup Coke? I’ll talk to @ErinBurnett about that in a few minutes.
Wait, didn’t Sec Kennedy just say that real sugar coke is MAHA?
You’re free to buy all the cupcakes and candy you want. But taxpayer-funded programs like SNAP should be used to purchase healthy food – not junk food and sugary drinks. It’s great to see @USDA working with states to make these common-sense changes.
Yes we did…. Kiss Cam moment on book tour with you know who… Thank you @OCPLCentral and all the amazing readers! Wow!
Diets heavy in saturated fat increase your LDL cholesterol and increase your risk of cardiovascular disease.
The FDA and USDA are working together on new, evidence-based dietary guidelines — and they're not going to demonize natural saturated fat while ignoring ultraprocessed foods.
I’m sorry, what? Isn’t there a strong link between sugary sodas and obesity? And isn’t combating obesity part of our “war on chronic disease”? So how does full sugar Coke help MAHA win?
MAHA is winning.
I tell our fellows that anyone can make a complicated procedure look complicated. The trick is to make it look easy.

Coming up with @ErinBurnett in a few minutes to talk about the president’s vascular testing. See you soon.
Once again, the MOCA is a dementia screening tool, not an IQ test. Identifying a camel is a pretty low bar.
Trump: "AOC -- look. I think she's very nice. But she's very low IQ, and we really don't need low IQ. Between her and Crockett, we're gonna give 'em both an IQ test to see who comes out best. I took a real test at Walter Reed medical center and I aced it. Now it's time for them…

So, if a doctor falsely certified that children had been vaccinated for measles when they hadn’t, would that also be OK? nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
In the current season of “The Bear” someone is admitted emergently to the hospital with a 1st degree heart block. C’mon man!
Just finished @danielsilvabook brand new “An Inside Job”. Such a smart and fun book. Is it too late to train to be a restorer specializing in Italian Renaissance paintings? Going to ask Gabriel Allon. @jamiegangel

What RFK, Jr is saying here is simply untrue. From the NEJM paper: “During the blinded, placebo-controlled period, 15 participants in the BNT162b2 group and 14 in the placebo group died”nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
RFK Jr: "If you look at the studies that were done of the Pfizer vaccine… the people who got the vaccine had a 23% higher death rate from all causes at the end of that study."
