I have spent 25 years monitoring college student tobacco use trends. A whole generation has been enticed to vape and now use nicotine pouches because flavors were added to tobacco products. Only the FDA & CDC stood between Big Tobacco and our children. I see a very unhealthy future.

This would be laughable if it weren’t so horrendous. I emailed Cassidy first to beg him not to confirm RFK, Jr., and then to ask him how he’s feeling now. Received exact same letter with his justification for approving him. Cassidy’s staff is protecting him from our outrage.

And one person could have stopped this. His name is Sen. Bill Cassidy. A medical doctor.

Sen. Bill Cassidy, you violated the Hippocratic oath when you supported RFK Jr.'s nomination and you own this—and all the horrific consequences to come.

I sent him an email yesterday to remind him this is his fault.

Repeat after me. Trump is a lame duck. Trump is a lame duck. Trump is a lame duck. (At least repeat every time something about a third term is mentioned.)

I want to know how Trump can scream during the meeting with Zelensky that Biden is stupid and then Vance says Zelensky is disrespectful and should be thanking Trump!

Unbelievable snow and cold in Baton Rouge today!
