I'm withholding any opinion until I hear from the head of the FDA who has surely been using the US government's teams of hundreds of scientists to get the best Gold standard science on this technology
What is RFK Jr stance on it? 🤣

If they can somehow create a powdered version it may finally get him on board
It only just struck me. The federal government is currently headed by several “where is Ja Rule” level incompetents. Enough of the funny, I really, really want to go back to the boring government.
But what does Ja think? Where's Ja...?!
Funny joke from a petty bully. Chappelle loves to punch down too much for me to respect him more than anyone in the Trump admin.
Got any examples? Honestly curious.
Been living under a rock?

There are tons of articles out there about his jokes punching down at various groups, because it's an ongoing problem and he just doubles down if anyone complains.

And I never said he was as bad as anyone in the Trump admin, I just said I couldn't respect him any more than them. He sits in a place of immense privilege and punches down at people who are struggling. He's in the same company as them.
You have to ask?
The only thing the FDA needs to hear is that this will make a lot of money for the shareholders.
