And I was therefore very convinced that here somebody would not only be able to ask a critical question that is life-saving for all Americans, And you know, it's the slogan of Make America Health Again. It really means it can. And I was concerned in my own life about some of these carcinogens because I'm a cancer doctor. So I said, let me give you a prime example.
There's papers and papers and papers that red dye 12 years ago is carcinogenic. The Europeans are smart enough, they're banded. Banded. If you go to Europe today and you find a candy, in fact, I've got candies on my table here, they're the European candies that are red in them, and American candies are red in them. European candies have no dye in it. They use beetroot, et cetera, plants.

And we have red dye in it. And only last month did they ban red dye. So, obviously, the question that he's been asking has validity. And we are silly enough to not adopt a standard of scientific rigor of really saying, look, if this is bad for us, why do we have it? Is it because it induces us to eat more? It induces the eye to go buy that more? Maybe it does.

But that's not a reason for you to be eating a carcinogen, I don't think. What I'm really worried about now is PFAS. So he and I had this long conversation of PFAS. I don't know if the public understands PFAS. I just tweeted about that this morning because we need to get that out. This is as chemical as made by companies, DuPont, 3M, etc. And it's in everything.

It's in your milk, it's in your water, it's in your vegetables, it's in your organic vegetables, it's in your land. It is not surprising that Europe does not want to buy our food, and we have an increasing rise of cancer in young people." I said, all we have to do is ask the question, why? And I think one of the things that Senator Cassidy has said

even though this is not under the auspices of the FDA, it's under the auspices of the EPA, who is going to have the courage enough to take on these large organizations and say, why do you release PFAS in the waste? And why do you use it as fertilizers for our farmland? Think about that. For decades, we've put PFAS as fertilizers in our farmlands.

I don't think this is hyperbole, but I think now our farmlands are currently toxic dump sites. Think about that concept. So he will then have, I believe, the courage to stand up and ask that question and have accountability. And so I think, you know, you're right, I am a fervent supporter. People put other attributions of reasons why.

I just think here somebody was asked the right questions, taken on the right organizations and big industry, including pharma, and said, let's ask the questions.

So, I mean, it goes back to a very fundamental question. And it's a very technically scientific question. Does your body clear the virus? What does that mean? The reason you have long COVID, I believe, is because your body still has replicating virus. You may not feel it. You don't know it.

Inside of your body does it because it causes inflammation in multiple areas of your body, whether it be your heart and the... cardiac arrest whether it be in your colon and you get cancer whether it be in your brain and you get long you get brain fog etc again you need to ask what's going on but the question first is why do we why did we create a vaccine that does not clear the virus

Oh my God, you're singing my tune. Exactly. I've been saying this since 2020. Think about this.
