Lay off a bunch of folks at the FDA, then announce tariffs? WTF? If you want pharma's to onshore manufacturing, you need to provide them quicker review. So much stupidity.

Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Ah, you forget the alternative. Instead of quicker review, we could just reduce oversight, and remove safety regulations.
Make Thalidomide Great Again
We are not going to approve any new drugs with Brain Worms running the CDC. You just need a good spoonful of cod liver oil.
Who said anything about aproval?
My friend mister George Washington did. slides wet bill across table
Why is it wet?
Right. They are just gonna let anyone sell anything.
My wife is artsy, and I'm sciency. Maybe we can go into snake oil.
Changing manufacturing sites requires a submission. You have to prove safety and efficacy.
We're about to have a third world economy. Good luck with that.
US healthcare already lags 3rd world countries so it's going back to the confederacy now.
Never been a better time to be selling leather biting straps.
I just had a vision of etsy products with colorful Pokemon characters set in rawhide leather biting straps.
Lot of BDSM crafters about to pivot to medical supplies. Restraints? Harnesses? Relaxants? Something to bite on? They're so ready for this.
Oh thank goodness. I was starting to worry Tariffs were not on everything.
It's not on oil or gas. Hmmm. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/trumps-tariffs-already-have-major-carve-out-oil-gas-russell-2025-04-02/
Oil executives would probably have him murdered if he did that.
You don’t fuck with oil execs’ bottom line.
You might want to get sick now, before pharmaceuticals aren't available anymore.
And thanks to RFK Jr., that's more feasible than ever.
Trump has looped back around to full retard so many times that I have no idea why I'm dividing the circumference of an average apple by a banana on a bicycle.
This will kill people. Directly kill them.
Social Murder.
Just what we needed. More expensive healthcare.
When your perspective is that Trump's testicles are held in a vice grip by Daddy Putin, the whole tarriffs situation makes clear as day sense.
I guess I feel less bad about the stache I have accidentally built up over the last couple of years. Time to refill everything.
