Also, RFK Jr. to investigate psych meds
| | | | WHAT WE'RE WATCHING | | 💊 RFK Jr. to probe psych meds after shooting. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. launched a federal investigation into psychiatric drugs after the Annunciation Church attack by a transgender-identifying shooter. Kennedy argued that mass violence is a new phenomenon, not tied to gun access, and pointed to America's overmedication crisis as a potential contributor. | 🧩 HHS set to reveal autism causes soon. RFK Jr. told President Trump that the Department of Health and Human Services will announce findings on autism's root causes in September. Kennedy maintains that environmental factors have driven the increase in autism cases. This direct challenge to mainstream medical consensus could fundamentally reshape autism policy and treatment approaches. | 🤠 Texas adopts MAHA food reform laws. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R), alongside RFK Jr., signed new laws banning the use of food stamps for sugary items and mandating warning labels on harmful additives. Texas is forcing food giants to change their recipes nationwide, showing that the MAHA agenda is making strides amid Congressional stalls. | ⚖️ Detransitioner's lawsuit may set a precedent. Prisha Mosley's malpractice suit against her gender transition doctors is back in court after North Carolina extended the statute of limitations. If allowed to proceed, her case could open the door for more legal challenges to irreversible surgeries on minors — just as the Trump administration moves to block federal funding for such procedures. |
