Trump’s MAHA Goon Faces Axe Over Vaping Blow Up
President Trump is reportedly planning to fire FDA Commissioner Marty Makary due to his handling of flavored vapes and other policy disagreements.Summary
According to a report by the Wall Street Journal, President Donald Trump is preparing to fire Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary. The president's frustration stems from Makary's reluctance to approve flavored vapes and his stances on abortion and drug policies. This move would make Makary the latest high-ranking official at the Department of Health and Human Services to be dismissed, following the firing of CDC Director Susan Monarez and HHS Deputy Secretary Jim O'Neil. Makary, who has been a key figure in the president's "Make America Health Again" initiative, has reportedly clashed with other health officials. The White House has not confirmed the reports, but sources indicate that top administration officials are increasingly convinced that Makary needs to leave. The situation is complicated by Trump's recent approval of flavored vapes, which was reportedly influenced by lobbyists connected to Chief of Staff Susie Wiles. Additionally, anti-abortion groups have called for Makary's removal due to his approval of a generic version of mifepristone. Makary, a surgeon from Johns Hopkins Hospital, gained prominence during the pandemic for supporting mask-wearing and vaccines while opposing mandates.
