The swamp creatures are showing their true colors, and it's not pretty. President Trump's nomination of Dr. Casey Means for Surgeon General has Big Pharma's bought-and-paid-for politicians scrambling like roaches when the lights come on.
Dr. Means, a Stanford-educated physician and tech entrepreneur who's spent years exposing the corrupt healthcare industrial complex, represents everything the establishment fears most: a qualified outsider who can't be bought, bullied, or silenced.
Trump praised Means' "impeccable MAHA credentials" when he announced her nomination last May, noting she would work alongside HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to "reverse the Chronic Disease Epidemic, and ensure Great Health, in the future, for ALL Americans."
But here's what really has the pharmaceutical lobby and their congressional puppets terrified: Dr. Means has been relentlessly calling out the exploitative nature of our current healthcare system that keeps Americans sick and dependent while Big Pharma rakes in record profits.
The Swamp Fights Back
During confirmation hearings, it became painfully obvious which senators have been feeding at the Big Pharma trough. Instead of asking substantive questions about her qualifications or vision for American health, these corporate cronies launched desperate attacks designed to protect their pharmaceutical paymasters.
This is exactly why Trump won - because Americans are sick and tired of watching their representatives serve corporate interests instead of We the People. While families struggle with skyrocketing prescription costs and chronic diseases, these lawmakers are more concerned about protecting pharmaceutical profit margins.
"The American people deserve a healthcare system that actually makes them healthier, not sicker and broker," one Trump ally noted. "Dr. Means threatens their entire business model of treating symptoms instead of causes."
The MAHA movement - Make America Healthy Again - represents a fundamental threat to the status quo that has enriched Big Pharma while making Americans among the sickest people in the developed world despite spending more on healthcare than anyone else.
Patriots should take notes on which senators are desperately trying to torpedo Dr. Means' confirmation. Their opposition isn't about qualifications - it's about protecting the corrupt system that's been poisoning American families for decades.
The question is: will enough senators choose American health over pharmaceutical profits?
