Oh my God

RFK Jr. once said pesticides were poisoning America’s kids. He promised to crack down. But the new draft of the MAHA report? No bans. No phaseouts. Instead - trust the science. 👇🧵1/

Let’s rewind. The first MAHA report blamed chemicals, pesticides, and food additives for chronic disease in children. Now? The second report takes a more grounded approach. One that quietly sides with… evidence. 2/

The draft doesn’t call for eliminating pesticides. It calls for: → “More targeted and precise applications” → “Research to reduce volumes” → Public confidence in EPA’s robust safety reviews That last part? It matters. 3/

Because here’s what most people don’t know: 🧪 Pesticides are already some of the most tested substances on the planet. Every product is reviewed for: ✅ Carcinogenicity. ✅ Chronic exposure. ✅ Reproductive health. ✅ Endocrine disruption. ✅ Environmental impact. 4/

And this testing isn’t done once. It’s updated. Reviewed. Re-audited. The EPA doesn’t just glance at company data. It dissects every line. Asks for more studies. And sets limits with 100x safety margins - or more. 5/

So when the draft report says: “We want to improve targeting, reduce volumes, and build public trust…” That’s not a rollback. That’s responsible science communication. And it’s a long-overdue shift away from fear-driven rhetoric. 6/

Meanwhile, the same draft punts on ultra-processed food. Just one line: “Develop a definition.” But on pesticides? At least it affirms the role of real risk assessment - not just vibes and headlines. 7/

It’s a rare moment in U.S. policy: Science is holding the line. No panic bans. No fake studies. No demonizing tools that farmers actually need. Just smarter use, better data, and clearer public explanation. 8/

This isn’t a “win for industry.” It’s a win for evidence. Because the public deserves more than scary slogans. It deserves the truth - even when it’s complicated. Especially when it’s about food, farming, and kids. 9/

We should always improve. Always listen to new data. Always refine. But the right move isn’t to throw out pesticide science. It’s to explain it better. And for once, this draft might actually be a step in that direction. 10/

Draft of new 'MAHA' report suggests RFK Jr. won't target pesticides. The draft suggests ways to improve the health of American children does not recommend severe restrictions on pesticides according to a copy of the document obtained by ABC News. 11/ abcnews.go.com/Health/draft-n…

Me - I raised $12M to get hundreds of thousands of people clean water and save countless people from dying! 🥰 Twitter - MrBeast is evil

Brian Glenn: President Zelenskyy, you look fabulous in that suit Zelenskyy: You are in the same suit. I changed, you did not.

The White House Press Corps is a buncha useless cunts. Zelenskyy is embarrassing the fuck outta them and I love it.

I hate that Zelenskyy wore a suit on principle alone, but understand hes under tremendous pressure to get this fucking clown on his side to save his people. But I love that he fucking roasted Brian Glenn for his failed heckling.

MrBeast You need to understand. They are Nazis that literally believe: African orphans surviving = "𝐦𝐮𝐡 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞!"

Spend 20 years studying Chemistry. Collect data. Publish papers. Pass peer review. Earn a PhD. Go online. Get told you’re wrong - by an electric screwdriver salesman. That’s the internet. Expertise vs confidence. Science isn’t broken. Our respect for it is.
