🚨The Dietary Guidelines released today is the most important public health guidance in modern history.
The U.S. government is for the FIRST time urging Americans to AVOID highly processed food, added sugar, and refined carbohydrates.
With the U.S. childhood obesity rate FIVE TIMES higher than peer countries and 70% of a child’s diet being highly processed food, previous dietary guidelines have shamefully refused to take a stand on these issues.
Also for the first time, the government guiding Americans to eat REAL, nutrient-dense food (high quality protein, healthy fats, vegetables, fruits, whole grains). Yes, that’s correct: the Dietary Guidelines have never before taken a stand in favor of real food.
These are simple and common-sense points - but it took the courage of President Trump and energy of MAHA voters for the government to say them.
The guidelines use unimpeachable science, and the Trump administration is looking forward to working with groups such as the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics to accomplish the urgent public health goal of improving the American diet. I sincerely thank these groups for their commitments to work with the administration on this topic. This issue is too important to not bring all stakeholders (however unlikely) to the table – which is the energy the administration is approaching nutrition efforts.
While the media is spring loaded to disagree with anything RFK says, I would urge us all to recognize there is an opportunity this year to shine a light and fix the most important health challenge we face – our chronic disease crisis which is largely tied to what we eat.
Every American deserves to be healthy - but too many Americans are sick and don’t know why. That is because their government has been UNWILLING to tell them the truth. For decades, the U.S. government has recommended and incentivized low quality, highly processed foods and drug interventions instead of prevention. This changes today through the courage of the President Trump – who heard the voice of voters concerned about skyrocketing chronic disease rates and directed the administration to fearlessly follow the science.
Implementation of the DGAs will result in access to healthier, nutrient-dense food on the plates of:
**the 45 million school lunches served per day.
**the 1.3 million active service members.
**the 9 million veterans who depend on VA hospitals.
Most importantly, this fuels a public health conversation – from the top of the government – about the imperative to fix the Standard American Diet.
According to a recent analysis by Johns Hopkins, 48% of all federal tax dollars are spent on healthcare – and 90% of U.S. healthcare spending is on people with chronic diseases. Many of these conditions are preventable, often reversible, and often tied to the food we eat.
There will be significant public health messaging from the administration about how healthy food – and a healthy life – is in reach for every American:
**Lunchables, which was considered a “healthy” school meal, is more expensive than a serving of ground beef.
**Doritos, which are considered a “healthy” school snack, are more expensive than a serving of frozen vegetable.
**Two eggs and a coffee at home is 70% less expensive than fast food donuts and a drink.
**Whole milk is a bit more expensive (but significantly more nourishing and filling) than soda (the top item purchased on food stamps).
Let’s all work together to make 2026 a defining year where the American diet returns to REAL FOOD.
@BiggerTen A simple tweak for the playoff committee. The top 4 conference champions are guaranteed a top 8 seed not a top 4 seed. This would reward them with at least a home game but not give a buy to a team that may not deserve one. #CFP
🚨 This needs to be shared with everyone you know before Election Day tomorrow

The 2 most embarrassing minutes in Secret service history.
Why they didn’t act swiftly?👇🏽
1. Lack of competency
2. Told to stand down
3. DEI hires slow to react & scared
4. SS didn’t send their best team
5. Lack of training
6. All of the above
DATE: MARCH 24, 2020 - this was the document that provided the basis for the lie that COVID was an emergency. This document told the people responsible for filing death certificates that anyone that could possibly have COVID should be called a COVID death. This along with the extra money Congress provided doctors for COVID deaths ensured the media had all the ammo needed to create the fake panic around this disease.
Early on - if you so much as coughed while dying you would likely be called a COVID death.
All of this was necessary because without an “emergency” declaration the mRNA poisons (gifts to the lobbyists for Pfizer & Moderna) could not be legally authorized. Read this carefully and think about how many businesses were destroyed and freedoms taken over this one document.
