So we have such a bad metabolic health environment that we have an epidemic of kids being born, you know, born with metabolic dysfunction. So it is societally vital. There's nothing more important than this. So we have an opportunity. It's not a both-and.
Are we going to, as a matter of public policy and as a matter of focus in that country, change that dynamic of changing our USDA guidelines to say that that two-year-old shouldn't be eating sugar? When you go the route of Ozempic, when you go the route that this is so bad that we need to jab those children at six. That's a different route. That's a different prioritization. It's not both hands.
But if we agree with the idea, if we actually agree with the science and that this drug is good and should be used as a standard of care, why not? I don't think any drug is good or bad.
Who is the right person, just generically? I'm just curious. Well, that's a great question.
Great to see you, Charlie. Just in from D.C.
Let's take the Dems off the table. I mean, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are two of the largest recipients of pharma dollars, total shills. They were talking about baby onesies. They were acting like they cared about children's health, but they didn't say the words diabetes, obesity, or heart disease, the things that are really the scourge of childhood health right now.
They didn't say those words one time in the hearing. So let's take them off the table. The bottom line, Charlie, is we've got to get the Republicans on board. And Bill Cassidy, to his credit, was direct at the end of the last hearing. And he said he's still on the fence. I think your tweet, Charlie, was pitch perfect. I think we need to take Senator Cassidy's word that he is a doctor.
He does care about public health. And I think he's talking a bit past each other with Bobby Kennedy here. He says his vote's contingent on knowing that Bobby Kennedy is going to maintain trust in science. The truth, as we know as parents, we're not scared for our children's health because of Bobby Kennedy. We are scared because the American Pediatrics is pushing processed food on our kids.
We're scared because they're pushing Ozempic and other drugs in our kids as the standard of care. We're scared because still the CDC is saying a six-month-old should get a COVID-19 shot. The public health authorities are responsible for the breakdown of public health. And you know this and I know this. I know you've been very close to Bobby throughout this process.
He is helping his life's mission with President Trump is to restore trust in science. You've seen these meetings. I'm shocked. It would shock anyone. I'm not shocked. But behind closed doors, it's not about an ideology. It's truly about getting the NIH money to the best researchers. Yeah, that's what they want to do.
I want to talk to the Maha moms, because as we both know, Bobby Kennedy, more than maybe any other cabinet secretary, came in there with a great coalition. It's incredible. You saw it visually at the hearings. I mean, thousands of Maha moms back in the halls.
So I want to be really clear to everyone watching, because I know everyone's really fired up, and I think we understand the societal stakes of this nomination. Let's talk to Senator Cassidy with respect, as you did. I think we need to bring him along. The MAHA is a new movement that health is not about the intricacies of Medicare and Medicaid policy.
It's about really getting to the root cause of why we're getting sick. And I think Senator Cassidy can be brought along on that. Private conversations, of course those are happening. Of course those are happening. I think he's an independent guy. He's obviously made some decisions we disagree with in the past. But voting to convict the president. But some big ones. This could go a long way.
We're going to leave that. Listen, there's some really obviously water on the bridge going backwards. Looking forward, this is what I'd say to him. And honestly, Charlie, I think it's probably what's being said behind closed doors is that he's concerned with public trust in science. And Bobby Kennedy and President Trump, it's promises made, promises kept. And they had two promises in this campaign.
It's to return to gold star research. And it was really a positive health future where 95% today of healthcare costs are managing chronic disease. We could have an incentive system where companies are incentivized to reverse disease, to promote longevity. I know me and you read a lot of health blogs and books. We can put that into medicine and incentivize and reward companies.
Right now we have a crony capitalist system that profits when we're sick. So there's this positive vision forward that I think they're telling Cassidy behind closed doors. I'll say this, Charlie, and I believe this with all my heart. I believe a yes vote from Senator Cassidy and every Republican senator.
I believe they will consider it one of the greatest votes of their career in four years at the end of the Trump administration. I'm not joking about this. I think President Trump will be winning the Nobel Prize. I think science is so we so lost right now. We know the predetermined outcome before we do this study. We are going to get back to asking tough questions.
And President Trump, he said it again and again. We're going to figure out why the hell our kids are so sick. And we're going to steer research to that. That's what's going to happen.
I mean, every parent watching, you and me, I am really, that's what got me into this, along with my mom's death. I am scared about the future our kids are walking into. One in 30 kids in California having autism? That's really, really scary. I'm frankly, to be honest, concerned about the pharmaceutical projects. I'm concerned about the pharmaceutical products that are shoved down kids' throats.
40% of teens are on a pharmaceutical right now. We have 50% of teens overweight or obese, and it's 3% in Japan. The Biden administration held this number until after the election, but according to recent reports, 38% of teens are pre-diabetic. We have a devastation among children's health. President Trump held up this graph on the Joe Rogan podcast.
