The transcript discusses several intertwined points about the FDA's funding, information sources, and a personal health journey. It states that the FDA gets 47% of its funding from the pharmaceutical industry, and that this information was released only after a rumor claimed 50% of their funding came from big pharma. The speaker notes, “the people that you’re supposed to be making rules and regulations for are the same people that are paying you money,” describing this as a conflict of interest and urging readers to consider the implication of funding influencing regulatory decisions. The speaker then shifts to their personal experience with health issues and the challenge of finding valid information that isn’t paid for by big pharma. They share a statistic attributed to women with similar issues: “85 to ninety percent of the women who experience the same issues that I experience notice changes in their symptoms or alleviation completely from their symptoms simply by changing their diet, namely going gluten free.” Although the speaker says they personally are not inclined to adopt gluten-free changes, they are cutting out refined carbs and sugars from their diet and report progress: “I've been on this diet for two days now, and I already feel a ton different.” This personal anecdote is presented in the context of comparing diet-driven symptom changes to pharmaceutical influence. The speaker mentions ongoing changes to their living space and routines as part of their broader stance. They say, “we're putting up our squat rack again in our home gym,” signaling a strengthening or lifestyle shift. They also report, “we did get some egg laying birds,” suggesting new household activities. Throughout, there is a reiterated sentiment directed at big pharma: “basically saying a big to big pharma,” underscoring their stance against pharmaceutical influence. Finally, the speaker emphasizes the surprising nature of the 47% funding figure and reiterates, “I still can't believe it's 47% of their funding, and they think that's okay.” They invite audience engagement, closing with, “as always, I look forward to hearing your thoughts about all of this down below.”

Bobby may be willing to play nice, but I won't. If senators oppose RFK Jr., I will fund challengers to primary them. RFK did a great job at the hearing, and the Maha MAGA unity movement is strong, supporting his confirmation. We're closely monitoring every senator's actions, and hundreds of thousands are mobilized for change. We're at a breaking point in America, and senators must choose between serving the people or big corporations. I support RFK because, like many Americans, I want healthy food and medicine for our children. The tragedy of parents burying their children must end. In 2020, I funded Democratic candidates, but now I’ll use my resources to challenge those who oppose RFK Jr. Thank you for having me.

Massachusetts, how did you end up with two pharma-backed senators? Let's look at Elizabeth Warren, who is worried about RFK Jr. bringing back polio if he becomes Secretary of HHS. She's received $871,000 from the healthcare industry. I get my data from OpenSecrets, which compiles info from the FEC. Warren condemned Super Packs but now benefits from one. Carla Jervison, a physician, gave $14.6 million to support Warren. Jervison helped fund the new Stanford Medical Center. Pfizer gave Stanford a $3 million grant in 2010 for new curriculum. Stanford professors have received money from Big Pharma companies like Eli Lilly. A Stanford-educated doctor, Casey Means, noted how her education lacked focus on nutrition and exercise, only diagnosis and pills. Is Warren concerned about polio, or protecting her donors' profits?

Senator Warren, I'm curious about your financial background. How did you manage to accumulate a $12 million net worth while earning a $200,000 salary in Congress? Could you explain how you achieved that? Excuse me, I'm simply asking a question and would appreciate it if you didn't obstruct my camera. We are on a public sidewalk.

There is a lot of money pouring into Kamala Harris' campaign, with a Swiss billionaire named Hans Georg Weiss contributing $20 million through 1.6 million individual donations from 400,000 donors. Allegations of fraud are now surfacing due to the scale of these donations.

Not few doctors. What you're talking about is there's a big difference, senator, between established science and the the scientific establishment, which has been co opted by the pharmacy Hold on. So you're telling me you're telling the American people that the American Medical Association representing hundreds of thousands of people have been co opted and that they should not trust their doctors Are they all corrupt as well? And I'm telling you, the American Heart Association has been co opted by the flu You were brought in for president. You got a billionaire behind it. You received $300,000 from people, not from the industry, people in it as I did, from individuals. You corrupt, president Trump got $3,000,000 Every republican got corporate PAC money for the pharmaceutical industry, democrats as well Everybody is corrupt, but you? Is that what we're looking at? I don't think so. And I think the issue I don't even know

If you live in Washington, pay attention to your senator's recent post about confirming RFK Jr. as secretary of HHS. This decision could harm public health and the economy. We can't let a conspiracy theorist influence major health policies. I checked her funding sources on Open Secrets and questioned her integrity, highlighting the significant amounts she received from health professionals, pharmaceuticals, insurance companies, and HMOs. It's unacceptable for her to profit from policies that negatively impact public health. We need to be cautious about who we elect. If you're in Washington, remember to vote wisely next time.

Tomorrow at 10 AM EST, RFK will have his confirmation hearing for Secretary of Health and Human Services. It's crucial to call your US senators and urge them to vote yes on his nomination, as he is highly qualified and ready to lead. I’ll share a list of key senators to contact. In 2020, I supported Democrats in Georgia, and I will closely monitor your votes. If you oppose Bobby, I will work to fund challengers against you in future elections. This message is bipartisan; it’s time to end the exploitation by big pharma and big agriculture. You must choose between transparency and accountability or standing in the way. Choose wisely.

I support focusing on issues like obesity and overmedicating children. Bobby Kennedy is fighting against the incentive for pharma to profit from sick children. Hospitals benefit from full beds, and chronic disease is good for the health industry's economics. I'm lobbying for SNAP bills to remove soda, highlighting a conflict where public health may not prioritize children's interests. When the data doesn't support their argument, RFK Jr. resorts to personal attacks. My Merck chair is defined by Penn, with no obligations. This is a tactic used when the science doesn't support anti-vaccine claims. The science continually proves he's wrong about vaccines.

You don't want RK Jr suing big pharma, right? Check my website; I don’t accept contributions from big pharma executives or corporate PAC money. You and your allies are already aware of this.

When you see celebrities promoting Kamala Harris, know they are often paid to do so. I've been approached multiple times with offers to promote her, using the same talking points. Recently, I saw Chrishell from Selling Sunset post a similar message without disclosing it was a paid promotion. This feels like propaganda, and I find it troubling that it's not considered illegal during an election. I was offered $25,000 for a few Instagram stories but chose not to take it. With the election approaching, I couldn't support something that felt wrong, especially when I believe we can improve health and food safety in America. I resonate with RFK Jr.'s views and refuse to let others suffer as I once did.

The recent confirmation hearings have sparked intense engagement, particularly regarding nominees like RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Kash Patel. Senators aggressively questioned them, often interrupting their responses, which undermines the purpose of the hearings. Many attacks on RFK Jr. stem from significant financial ties senators have with the pharmaceutical industry, raising concerns about conflicts of interest. Despite claims that RFK caused a measles outbreak, the reality points to deeper issues within the vaccine system. Senators like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, who have received substantial pharma donations, have been particularly hostile. The hearings reveal a broader struggle against entrenched interests, with RFK Jr. advocating for transparency and accountability in health policies. The ongoing resistance to change reflects a system that prioritizes control and profit over public health.

I don't accept contributions from big pharma executives or corporate PAC money. You and your allies are aware of this.

Senator Warren, is your acceptance of $520,000 from Big Pharma since 2020 the reason you oppose RFK Jr. suing them? Check my website. I don’t accept contributions from Big Pharma executives or any corporate PAC money, and you know that. Thank you.

Almost all panel members, including you, are accepting significant contributions from the pharmaceutical industry. I ran for president too and received substantial contributions, but they did not come from executives. Out of 200 million, I received 1.5 million. You still haven't answered my last question.

In light of RFK's upcoming confirmation hearings, a letter claiming to have 17,000 doctors urging the Senate to reject his nomination has surfaced. Upon investigation, it turns out anyone can sign this letter multiple times, raising suspicions about its credibility. The Committee to Protect Health Care, which organized the letter, claims not to accept donations from pharmaceutical companies, yet is funded by the Arabella Advisors network, a dark money organization that manages over $1 billion. This network's practices, including astroturfing, create the illusion of grassroots support while keeping donor identities anonymous. The situation highlights concerns about transparency and the influence of undisclosed funding on public health narratives.

I'm committed to making America healthier than other countries. Will you guarantee the same healthcare coverage that other major countries provide? Corruption isn't just in federal agencies; it's in Congress too. Many members here, including you, accept millions from the pharmaceutical industry to protect their interests. I ran for president and received millions in contributions, but none came from pharmaceutical executives or PACs. My support comes from workers, not corporate interests. You were the largest recipient of pharmaceutical donations in 2020. No, I received support from workers across the country, not from corporations. You still haven't answered the last question.

Senator Warren, is your acceptance of $520,000 from Big Pharma since 2020 the reason you oppose RFK Jr suing them? I don't take contributions from Big Pharma executives or any corporate PAC money, and you know that.

Senator Warren was asked if her acceptance of $5.2 million from Big Pharma since 2020 is the reason she doesn't want RFK Junior suing Big Pharma. Warren responded that she does not take contributions from Big Pharma executives or any corporate PAC money, and that the questioner and their allies already know that.

In light of RFK's upcoming confirmation hearings, a letter claiming to be signed by 17,000 doctors urges the Senate to reject his nomination due to his alleged misinformation about vaccines. However, upon investigation, it turns out anyone can sign this letter multiple times, raising suspicions about its credibility. The Committee to Protect Health Care, which organized the letter, claims to avoid funding from pharmaceutical companies, but it is backed by the Arabella Advisors network, a dark money organization that manages significant funds without disclosing its donors. This network's influence on public policy and its use of astroturfing—creating the illusion of grassroots support—raises concerns about transparency and accountability. The letter's legitimacy is questionable, as it relies on unverifiable signatures and is funded by a network with a clear agenda.

If you live in Washington, it's time to hold your senator accountable. She supports appointing RFK Jr., a known anti-vaxxer, as Secretary of HHS, which could harm public health and the economy. I checked her funding sources and found significant contributions from health professionals, pharmaceuticals, insurance companies, and HMOs. This raises questions about her credibility in discussing health issues when she profits from policies that negatively impact Americans. We need to be cautious about who we elect. If you're in Washington, remember this when voting next time.

I support discussing issues like obesity and overmedicating children. Bobby Kennedy is fighting against the incentive for pharma to profit from sick children, and he's supporting efforts to remove soda from SNAP. The problem is that organizations like Merck don't have children's best interests at heart, considering their history of criminal penalties for misleading information. When the data isn't on their side, RFK Jr. and personal injury lawyers attack the person. My Merck chair is defined by Penn, and there's no quid pro quo. The science continually proves RFK Jr. wrong about vaccines.

This is a perfect example of "do what I say, not what I do" kind of situation. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, a White House Democrat in Rhode Island, backed legislation that funneled millions to his wife's environmental nonprofit, Ocean Conservancy. While the group raked in over $14 million in federal grants funded by bills that Whitehouse voted for, his wife was paid nearly $2.7 million. After so many years, an ethics watchdog is calling for an investigation into this blatant corruption. Someone needs to investigate what his wife was doing with all of this money and find out if they were actually using it to conserve environmental ocean stuff or if his stock portfolio or property values got a little bigger. Let me know what you think about this entire situation.

Hi. I'm Robert F. Kennedy Jr, your HHS secretary. Should doctors make decisions based upon what's best for their patients or based upon what makes them the most money? It rewards certain treatments, not because they're better for the patient, but because someone profits. Take what happened during COVID. Hospitals were paid to report staff vaccination rates. We're scanning every corner of the health care system for hidden incentives at corrupt medical judgment. What we're finding is alarming. Doctors are being paid to vaccinate not to evaluate. We've recently uncovered that more than 36,000 doctors had their Medicare reimbursements altered based upon childhood vaccination rates. That's not medicine.

I'm going to be the bad guy and I want to get away with as much as possible to enrich myself. You're all my co-conspirators helping me legally. My campaign is entirely funded by corporate PACs, like those from the fossil fuel, healthcare, and big pharma industries. I can even use dark money to pay off people to cover up skeletons. Once elected, I have the power to shape laws without limits. Being funded by oil and gas or big pharma means I can write laws benefiting them without restrictions. I want to get rich, so I can hold stocks in an oil company and then write laws to deregulate the industry, causing the stock value to soar. Does this sound familiar? Our system is broken, with these influences shaping the questions being asked right now.
