Summary
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he will direct the CDC to stop recommending fluoridated drinking water and form a taskforce to review health concerns.
His announcement follows Utah’s statewide ban on fluoride, the first in the U.S., despite warnings from dental and health organizations.
Kennedy praised Utah’s move and labeled fluoride a “dangerous neurotoxin.” The EPA, under Administrator Lee Zeldin, is reviewing new data on fluoride’s health risks.
Critics argue the effort is politically driven and will harm low-income communities by increasing cavity rates.

CDC should just ignore him. These people only have the power you give them. Every individual can just be simply disobedient. Keep doing your job and ignore what the Republican clowns in charge direct you to do.
“I order you to end the fluoride recommendations!”
“Sure thing, boss!”
[Weeks pass]
“Did you end the fluoride?”
“Working on it! Gotta a lot of emails to send!”
[Weeks later]
“What’s the progress on the fluoride?”
“Still trying to tie up a few loose ends!”
Rinse and repeat until Kennedy’s worm-eaten brain falls out his ear
Someone has read up on the Simple Sabotage Field Manual
Then they fire you and hire a sicophant
Edit: ugh, leaving the misspelling to show my shame
“Oh, fire whatstheirname? Sure thing boss. Just gotta send a few emails…”
“You wanted me to fire who? Oh sorry, i got that wrong, i fired that MAGA nepo-baby who was so incompetent, and now the person you want me to fire is doing that job, and we ccan’t have it be empty. I’ll tell you what. Give me a week or two to find a replacement, and I’ll fire…who was that again?”
Just tell them you did it, and trust that they don’t have the capacity or will to check
Following illegal orders is illegal.
The American government wants their citizens sick and stupid.
yet you sell and eat chlorinated chicken.
How are they going to mind control the population now though?
It’s fascinating how some people, however fringe, believe both:
- that there is a Deep State or some other form of conspiracy that controls hurricanes and people’s minds; and
- that Trump –or anyone else for that matter– can rein in such a powerful, almost omnipotent force.
They are low intelligence, and that makes them suspicious of every aspect of life that they didn’t learn about before the age of 10.
They recognize Trump is just as stupid (or ‘normal’ as they choose to think of it) as they are, but since he is successful they see that as evidence that some supernatural element is supporting him, either god or some genetic aspect of being a wealthy white that enables him to win.
They’ve still got the chemtrails, right?

Well it’s not like kids will need their teeth after the measles wipes then out.
I hate the future.
MAGAs often are missing teeth anyway, this just helps them maintain their brand image.
with type 2 diabetes, they wont even stand a chance, people with type 2 have a drastically increase of losing thier teeth, due to dry mouth.
I guess make america healthy again means more tooth decay and heart disease
And measles.
Mea-sles? Ohhh, my freedom rash.
Nah, its fine. Not contagious or potentially life altering for the worse even if I survive.
I don’t know where I picked it up, but my toddler son came back from preschool with something similar! Any way, I’ve got to get to his funeral. Merica!
And bird flu, tbc
The dentist is expensive, this will increase the amount of money people need to spend. Makes workers more vulnerable to exploitation - their guiding light, their north star.
When you gut any government assistance or oversight on healthcare and uphold a parasitic for profit industry you have no need for a healthy population. The sicker the better. Can’t work thrown on the streets to die once your assets are siphoned to the shareholders
Disease prevention and health recommendations from biased politicians, straight to these agencies designed to protect us, where they’re ordered to ignore facts and comply. You know, like a functioning, science-respecting democracy does…
Meanwhile other shit that’s worse not getting attention
this is the guy that has been seeing using a dropper of METHYLENE BLUE into his drink on a flight.
We’re getting our policy from Gen. Jack D. Ripper.
Sounds like a good time to be in business as a dentist!
Even the dentists want fluoridation to continue: https://www.ada.org/about/press-releases/community-water-fluoridation-is-effective-at-preventing-cavities
I was mostly just making a snarky comment about how everyone is going to get tooth decay from lake of fluoridation.
I brush with both fluoride and hydroxyapatite toothpaste… But fluoride in drinking water doesn’t really make sense. The fluoride reaction needs coverage and time, which drinking doesn’t provide.
Yet the CDC has science that shows otherwise:
What the research shows Studies continue to show that widespread community water fluoridation prevents cavities and saves money, both for families and the health care system.
Drinking fluoridated water keeps teeth strong and reduces cavities by about 25% in children and adults. 34This results in less mouth pain, fewer fillings or teeth pulled, and fewer missed days of work and school.
Communities of 1,000 or more people see an average estimated return on investment (ROI) of $20 for every $1 spent on water fluoridation. The ROI for community water fluoridation increases as the community size increases, but even small communities save money.5 Communities served by fluoridated water save an average of $32 per person a year by avoiding treatment for cavities.5
I only the other hand have… no evidence for my opinion.
But I will keep brushing.
Flouride has been proven harmful to brain development. Too high content in drinking water will cause lower IQ. Low levels should not affect IQ so much, but still very helpful for teeth.
Interesting since Americans only drink Gatorade. They say it has electrolytes, but does it have flouride?
thats only if you drink a concentrated solution, natural sources arnt high enough to cause it. even with children who get flourisis, they found out that thier teeth arnt resistant to cavaties, despite have structural defects.
I’m confident that page will be deleted shortly.
Since when was it ever a priority to save money for the healthcare system?
That is an excellent hypothesis. Perhaps if people swished with fluoridated water they would have less cavities. There are also numerous very good studies showing the effects of fluoridation on cities. There have been cities who voted to remove fluoridation, then saw cavities increase, and voted to put it back, resulting in the expected decrease in cavities. So clearly, it works.
thats why you should swish with sodium flouride mouthwash after brushing, or swish with toothpaste after your normal brushing. additionally, after brushing you can just spit out the excess toothpaste and dont rinse, it helps too.
I did not expect that to be true.
nano-hydroxapatite is the one you want, both normal and micro is actually too big to help with defects. im using a 10% nHA, but im looking into another brand. and some of the HAP brands have ingredients that cause allergies. i also use flouride, specifically stannous flouride which is better than sodium flouride, and the other formulation.
it has been shown that using F and nHA strengthens its bettern than either alone, but they havnt found a formulation that it would work effectively.
which HAP brand you using?
I was getting tablets off of Amazon before I started boycotting it. Sorry, I don’t remember the brand.
