And then before Macari was able to himself let the public know that he was leaving, Donald Trump immediately posted the text message in order to humiliate Macari, to make example of him for other people who dare oppose giving vapes to little children.
Donald Trump posted this message, a text message from Marty Macari,
I just want you to think right now of any employment setting.
If any boss in any employment setting did this, you would say the worst human to work for.
That's Donald Trump for you.
The worst human to work for.
Frankly, the worst human right now.
Here's what Macari wrote to Donald Trump.
And it seems that he was either saying, was he saying, dear President Trump, or does he call Donald Trump doctor?
Does Donald Trump make Macari call him doctor?
Because he goes, Dr. President Trump, or maybe it was dear, please accept my resignation effective today.
During my tenure, I announced 50 major FDA reforms.
Joe Biden's FDA had none.
I'm extremely proud that we reduced drug review times from a year to one to two months, wrote new guidance to advance psychedelics, introduced a new plausible mechanism pathway for rare disease drugs,
and changed estrogen labels to tell women the truth about menopausal hormone replacement.
It's been an honor of a lifetime to serve as your FDA commissioner.
I am forever grateful, Dr. Marty Makary.
Now, the approval of these psychedelics without going through any scientific method happened because Joe Rogan text messaged Donald Trump and said, I want these to be approved by the FDA.
And then Donald Trump said to Makary,
You better approve him.
