The MAHA® Podcast

Elections Don't Wash Away Principled Movements. Waves, on the other hand, disappear almost as fast as they arrive. Did the midterm blue wave reject MAHA? The day after Democrats took control of Congress, our steadfast advocates say no, and lay out what the movement does next.Host Tony Lyons opens with a direct answer: the reports of MAHA’s death are greatly exaggerated. He argues the movement has already won hearts and minds even where it fell short at the ballot box, and points to wins like Julia Letlow’s election to the U.S. Senate from Louisiana, filling the seat held by Bill Cassidy.Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo says the results had nothing to do with MAHA, calls the growing split between MAHA and MAGA a chance to build a truly nonpartisan health movement, and explains why he has always been an independent.Children’s Health Defense CEO Mary Holland urges the movement to unify, push harder for wins at the state level, and start educating 2028 candidates from both parties on pesticides, vaccines, and the drugs being prescribed to children.Zach Lahn, the MAHA-endorsed Republican nominee for Iowa governor, reflects on his insurgent campaign, his primary upset over a Trump-backed opponent, and why he believes issues like clean water and corporate capture can no longer be ignored in Iowa.Moms Across America founder Zen Honeycutt warns Democrats against trying to impeach Secretary Kennedy, challenges the new majority to act on glyphosate and on pesticides banned in other countries, and announces two new grassroots efforts: Toxin Free Town Teams and Pet Parents Across America.The takeaway from today’s call: MAHA is a movement about health, not party, and it is just getting started.✊ JOIN US: mahaaction.org📰 The MAHA Report: themahareport.com📋 Legislative Tracker: mahaaction.org/legislative-tracker🚨 Subscribe & hit 🔔 Live every Wednesday at 4:00 PM ET.0:00 Tony Lyons8:13 Dr. Joseph Ladapo22:52 Mary Holland28:35 Zach Lahn34:05 Zen Honeycutt55:13 Tony Lyons

Is RFK Jr. doing enough to Make America Healthy Again? While some are busy moving around the goal-posts, RFK Jr. and HHS are steadily chipping away. History shows no administration has taken on this many fights at once.

Is the MAHA movement being divided from within? Mainstream media wants you to think so. Tony Lyons opens this week's Media Hub with a warning about infighting weeks before the midterms.
Robert Scott Bell expands on his thought experiment about how industry could weaken the movement by turning allies against each other. Russell Brand, joining from the UK, reflects on last week's MAHA gathering in Washington and the people he met there. Armstrong Williams argues that health reform is common sense, not radical, and calls on the media to cover chronic disease instead of manufactured feuds.

Epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher of the McCullough Foundation presents two new analyses: one reporting an association between COVID-19 vaccination and autism diagnoses in children using national survey data, and a risk-benefit reanalysis of Moderna's new mRNA flu shot, mFlusiva.
Dr. Eric Berg, The Knowledge Doc, explains the difference between cancer screening and true prevention, drawing on research into overdiagnosis. Dr. Daniel Pompa makes the case that mold is an overlooked driver of chronic illness, following Secretary Kennedy's recent mold surveillance roundtable. Rep. Mike Haridopolos (R-FL) talks about the GRAS loophole, clearer food ingredient labeling, and what chronic disease costs the federal budget.
