Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller: “What has been fake for generations now is the medical and nutrition advice that so much of this government has been giving our families.”
“The reality is that what has been fake for generations now is the medical and nutrition advice that so much of this government has been giving our families. And, you know, we saw, of course, during COVID, with fake rules about, from the so-called experts, about masking and social distancing and everything else, or pretending that there’s the same risk profile for a healthy four-year-old kid as an elderly and obese person.
The Maha Report is the most significant and important breakthrough moment in terms of prioritizing prevention, underlying health, answering and asking the right questions. Why are there such persistently high rates of pediatric cancer in this country? And why have they increased so significantly since 1970? Why are pediatric cancer rates so much higher in the developed world than in the developing world?
Why do we even have a concept called “diseases of civilization”? I think you’ve all heard that concept before, right? Where in the most developed countries, you have such high incidences of cancer, of immunological disorders, right— in other words, things like celiac disease, food allergies, eczema, psoriasis, gut disorders— you have so many quality of life disorders that can actually be crippling and debilitating, right?
Some of these disorders can completely degrade a person’s entire quality of life permanently, with no known cures. They can treat these things with steroids; they can try to mitigate the symptoms, but there’s no path out for millions of Americans. What is causing young babies in this country to have these crippling allergic reactions, or immune systems that don’t fire properly— they underreact to certain illnesses, they overreact to other illnesses— and we don’t see these same things in the natural world, in other primates?
And so the report, which took such extraordinary courage, and I’m so grateful to Bobby, in talking about the chemical load in our society, the chemical load that a child accrues from the day they’re born in terms of everything they touch and interact with in the world, the complete denuding of our food supply— in other words, the eradication of all living things, all natural things from our food supply in the form of these ultra-processed foods— so that children are living a life where they’re not having access to anything natural, they’re not having access to anything that’s healthy, everything they do have is loaded up with insane amounts of sugar for years— and I still think it’s the case: if you went to a store and looked at baby food, it’s filled with sugar.
Why are people putting sugar into baby food? And how many children’s snacks, right, are filled with dyes, artificial ingredients, and massive amounts of sugar? What is this doing to a young body from the day they’re born, combined again with all the chemical exposures, the incredibly accelerated growth, and compression of the overall vaccine schedule from even when I was a kid?
Parents have questions. They want to know, again, why do their kids have these chronic health conditions? Why do they go to the hospital when they’re sick? Instead of just… in other words, they have a common cold: why isn’t it sending them to the hospital? Why is their immune system firing wrong? Why is it that foods that people have eaten for thousands of years are suddenly causing these crippling allergies in children?
Why is it there are these high and persistent rates of obesity that have no precedent in history amongst our young people? What are the effects and the costs to our healthcare system over time when you have these high rates of chronic illnesses— heart disease, obesity, lung disease, asthma— like, what are the effects of these on a society, both financially, personally, quality of life?
Why is it that a person from the developing world has a lower cancer rate than an American does, on average? Right? But within a single generation, their family has the exact same cancer rate, likelihood of getting cancer, as the American population. These are questions that no one has wanted to ask or explore or assess, and thank God that Bobby did.”
