We are up against the MAHA movement and ideology, not just individual bad actors like Casey Means, Dr Oz, or even RFK Jr, the same way that the eventual end of a Trump presidency won't be the end of MAGA.

Screenshot of "Books" section of Nicole Saphier's Wikipedia page. It reads:
"Saphier is the author of the national best-selling [14] book Make America Healthy Again: How Bad Behavior and Big Government Caused a Trillion Dollar Crisis. [4] [15] [16] In the book, Saphier submits that "by getting healthier, we can reduce the astronomical cost of treatment. We don't need socialized medicine--we need to take better care of ourselves."[17]

She has also written Panic Attack: Playing Politics with Science in the Fight Against COVID-19, claiming that politicians have distorted the science around COVID-19 in order to score points against their opponents. [18][19][20]"

This was published in the Boston Globe in 1911. While most members couldn't leave their houses, some were able to occasionally for events like the ones held by the society's "wheelchair outing club." #disabilityhistory

A newspaper clip that at the top says "American Shut-in Society is Doing Much - Wheel Chair Outing Club Formed in Boston is Happy Success - Providing Diversion for Members Through Medium of Newspapers, Books and Letters." Underneath is a picture of nine people, some are in wheelchairs. A child is in the front. Below it says "members of the wheel chair outing club."

Many headlines in Britain and the US expressed fears that birth control, which was once thought of as necessary for eugenics, had now gone too far and was contributing to underpopulation. Headlines often expressed fears that other races were going to outnumber White people.

Newspaper headline that reads "World Needs More Babies Thinks British Biologist" with subheading "Control of Birth Control May Be Necessary to Curb Danger of Under-population"

A new vision for tackling the global noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) crisis has failed to reach consensus at the UN after the US refused to give its support, forcing member states to a vote.

After months of negotiations, the fourth political declaration on NCDs and mental health received overwhelming backing from governments at the UN general assembly on Thursday but was rejected by the US during a speech by Robert F Kennedy Jr, the health secretary.

Addressing the assembly, Kennedy said: "We cannot accept language that pushes destructive gender ideology. Neither can we accept claims of a constitutional or international right to abortion. [The declaration] exceeds the UN's proper role while ignoring the most pressing health issues, and that's why the United States will reject it."

There is no mention of reproductive rights or gender in the declaration except in reference to specific challenges facing women.

Despite the US's stance, the declaration is expected to be agreed on in the coming weeks. Katie Dain, the chief executive of the NCD Alliance, an NGO, said: "The unity we saw today proves that most governments are ready to take the baton on NCDs."

The declaration includes new targets to track and accelerate responses to NCDs such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes and chronic respiratory diseases, which cause 43 million deaths a year - 75% of all deaths worldwide The majority, 80%, are preventable.

It also strongly urges access to affordable medicines and integrates mental health and diseases such as oral and renal conditions.

Just adding this from WMUR. I know conservatives are a lost cause here, but everyone else needs to be aware that a person yelling "Free Palestine" during an act of violence is not always a pro-Palestine leftist.

Screenshot of a WMUR article. The text says "Investigators have confirmed rumors about what Nadeau shouted during the shooting, but Attorney General John Formella believes those statements were meant to create confusion."

Blue font over a white background with a blue frame. The text reads "As part of the promotion of “health,” Nazis advocated for specific dietary choices (less meat, sugar, and fats) and promoted organic, “natural” food as inherently healthier and more virtuous. Franz G. M. Wirz, a member of the Nazi party’s Committee on Public Health, complained about the number of military recruits who weren’t “fit for service” due to health problems. In early 2025, an executive order establishing the “Make America Healthy Again Commission” stated “Seventy-seven percent of young adults do not qualify for the military based in large part on their health scores.” Just last week, Dr. Oz said it is every American’s patriotic duty to take care of themselves for the purpose of military service. It should be clear to everyone by now how terrifying and dangerous this fascist rhetoric is. In Nazi Germany, 1939 was declared the year of the “duty to be healthy.”"
