Hour 1
NEWLY RELEASED FAUCI TEXTS REVEAL HE PRIVATELY WARNED COVID SHOT COULD TRIGGER MISCARRIAGE Newly released government text messages recovered from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s government-issued phone and released by Senators Ron Johnson and Rand Paul show that in January 2021 Fauci privately raised concerns in an exchange involving then-CDC Director Rochelle Walensky and Vivek Murthy that fever and the heightened immune response following the second COVID-19 vaccine dose theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the first trimester of pregnancy. The messages form part of a larger cache of more than 34,000 texts and 522 voicemails. The disclosure coincides with a recent peer-reviewed pregnancy safety study by Dr. James Thorp and colleagues that analyzed CDC/FDA VAERS data through April 26, 2024, examining 37 pregnancy and newborn adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination and finding that every one of the 37 exceeded the CDC/FDA safety-signal statistical threshold, including miscarriage, fetal malformations, chromosomal abnormalities, placental disorders, fetal growth restriction, premature delivery, stillbirth, neonatal asphyxia, and newborn death. The study reported a COVID-19 vaccine miscarriage proportional reporting ratio of 114 compared with influenza vaccination and 38.4 compared with all other vaccines, indicating miscarriage was reported far more disproportionately after COVID-19 vaccination. While senior federal health officials privately discussed miscarriage risk in January 2021, they subsequently promoted COVID-19 mRNA injections during pregnancy.
Special Guest: Dr. Susan Blyskal
BHR Skincare was born out of a personal frustration. When Dr. Susan Blyskal was pregnant and couldn’t find a single product she trusted to use safely on her own skin, she did what pharmacists do best and formulated one herself. That first formula, a body cream designed to prevent stretch marks using only clean, natural ingredients, worked so beautifully that friends and family began asking for it too. Over 35 years later, that same commitment to pharmaceutical-grade formulation and clean botanicals now spans a full line of 24 products, each crafted with the finest quality herbs gathered at peak potency, specialty pharmaceutical ingredients, and aromatherapy essential oils, with no sensitizing fragrances ever.

Hour 2
Trump Signs Executive Order Aimed at Reducing Number of Childhood Vaccines President Donald Trump signed an executive order calling for reducing the number of diseases for which children receive routine childhood vaccines from 18 to 11, recognizing gold standard recommendations for 11 core vaccinations against the most serious diseases along with the MMR vaccine which is hoped to be split into three separate shots delivered over 18 months, while ending the birth dose of the hepatitis B vaccine in line with a prior CDC advisory committee recommendation and shifting other vaccinations to shared clinical decision-making between physicians and caregivers. Trump stated that the CDC schedule recommends more childhood vaccines than any peer nation and even twice as many doses as some European countries, adding that the changes space doses over a year to a year and a half so children receive 20 percent of what they previously got in one big shot. The order requires the reinstated HHS Task Force on Safer Childhood Vaccines to draft a report within 90 days on implementation, calls on states to harmonize policies with an HHS study showing the U.S. schedule requires more vaccinations than other high-income countries and to consider updating school vaccination laws, advises federal agencies to advance the recommendations, and directs the Department of Justice to investigate states that may be violating parental rights and religious freedom including disability accommodations and religious and medical exemptions. CHD Chief Scientific Officer Brian Hooker described the order as a step in the right direction that delays vaccination to two months of age rather than the first day of life, potentially helping lower infant mortality rates that peak in the first week, while Senior Research Scientist Karl Jablonowski noted it elevates recommendation responsibility to the HHS Task Force and Secretary Kennedy. Pediatrician Dr. Joel Walsh questioned how the order would practically alter the schedule ordinarily set outside presidential announcement, and Hooker observed that it leaves unaddressed the multiplicity of shots given at two, four, six, and twelve-month check-ups that have not been tested in combination.
Delivering Gold Standard Childhood Vaccine Recommendations for Americans By the authority vested in the President, this executive order of August 10, 2026, declares that the United States recognizes Gold Standard Childhood Vaccine Recommendations based on an HHS scientific assessment that identified consensus vaccines consistently recommended in peer countries and found the United States currently recommends more childhood vaccines than any peer nation, including more than twice as many doses as some European nations, while noting that most peer nations achieve high vaccination rates through public trust and education rather than mandates. The recommendations are divided into three categories: immunizations recommended for all children covering measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, Haemophilus influenzae type B, pneumococcal disease, human papillomavirus, and varicella; immunizations for certain high-risk groups including respiratory syncytial virus monoclonal antibodies, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, meningococcal B, meningococcal ACWY, and dengue; and immunizations based on shared clinical decision-making covering hepatitis A, hepatitis B, rotavirus, meningococcal disease, influenza, and COVID-19. The order further recognizes that the combined MMR vaccine should be administered as three separate single-disease shots once such products are domestically available and that, to the maximum extent feasible, all childhood immunizations should be given at separate medical visits. Executive departments and agencies are directed to review and advance these recommendations to the fullest extent allowable by law, states and territories are advised to consider updating school immunization requirements accordingly, and the recommendations will be routinely reassessed based on findings of the HHS Task Force on Safer Childhood Vaccines. Within 90 days the Task Force shall present plans to offer core vaccines including MMR as single rather than combination products while guaranteeing continued availability of combination and shared-decision vaccines, assess ideal timing and sequencing of core vaccines and adjust the Federal schedule as appropriate, develop alternative adjuvants to aluminum with comparative studies, ensure continuous risk-benefit evaluation, and improve vaccine safety monitoring, transparency, and research. The Attorney General and the Departments of Justice, Education, and HHS are directed to take measures supporting parental authority, religious freedom, disability accommodations, and equal protection, including religious and medical exemptions from immunization requirements.
Human “biology was never intended to handle” ultraprocessed foods, former FDA head David Kessler warns Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and former FDA Commissioner David Kessler, despite disagreeing on most public health issues, have found common ground in criticizing ultraprocessed foods that now make up 50 percent of American calories and 60 percent of children’s diets, attributing much of the problem to the 1958 GRAS classification that allows companies to independently deem ingredients generally recognized as safe without full government review. Kessler stated that over the last 40 years the United States has been exposed to energy-dense, highly palatable, rapidly absorbable ultraprocessed foods that alter metabolism and drive the greatest increase in chronic disease in history including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, fatty liver, heart attacks, and stroke, comparing the scale of the crisis to or larger than tobacco because it affects nearly everyone. Kennedy said 70 percent of Americans are obese or overweight not due to laziness but because food is low in nutrition and high in calories, and that the GRAS loophole was hijacked to add thousands of ingredients, with estimates ranging from 4,000 to 10,000 while Europe allows only about 400, leaving Americans unable to know if ultraprocessed products are safe. Kessler is petitioning to revoke GRAS status for dozens of refined carbohydrates such as corn syrup and maltodextrin unless companies prove they do not fuel obesity, arguing these industrially processed ingredients are rapidly absorbed, target brain reward circuits, trigger overeating, and deposit fat in the liver that migrates to other organs. Kennedy said he will act on Kessler’s petition using gold standard science while emphasizing informed choice, and both support greater transparency though industry groups maintain there is no agreed definition of ultraprocessed foods and that companies follow FDA standards. Author Michael Pollan linked the issue to federal farm subsidies that support commodity corn and soy used in processed foods and animal feed rather than healthier options, noting taxpayers fund both the unhealthy calories and the resulting healthcare costs.
Eating More Processed Foods Lowers Your Levels Of These Key Nutrients A systematic review of studies examining the relationship between ultra-processed food consumption and micronutrient status screened 377 publications and identified only four eligible cross-sectional studies involving children, pregnant women, and lactating women. Higher intake of ultra-processed foods was associated with lower levels of carotenoids, vitamin A, vitamin E, molybdenum, and selenium, while also linked to higher levels of gamma-tocopherol, potassium, and sodium. Data on anemia in children were mixed. Because the studies are cross-sectional, the findings show associations rather than causation. Ultra-processed foods such as packaged snacks, fast food, frozen meals, and sugary drinks displace nutrient-dense whole foods that supply these micronutrients, leaving less room in the diet for them, while their high sodium content from preservatives and flavorings and added potassium from stabilizers explain the elevated levels of those minerals. Sources of the displaced nutrients include sweet potatoes, carrots, leafy greens, and eggs for vitamin A and carotenoids, sunflower seeds, almonds, avocado, and olive oil for vitamin E, Brazil nuts, tuna, sardines, eggs, and chicken for selenium, and legumes, whole grains, and nuts for molybdenum. The review indicates that higher ultra-processed food intake is linked to lower levels of these key nutrients and suggests focusing on adding more whole foods rich in them rather than eliminating processed foods entirely.
Natural food dyes are winning the snack wars Sales of food and beverages listing natural colors on their packaging grew by 24.4 percent from 2024 to 2025 while products listing artificial colors grew just 0.1 percent, according to a report from the National Confectioners Association and RTI International, with products containing dyes such as Red No. 40, Yellow No. 5, and Yellow No. 6 seeing sales declines. Growth in natural-color products was strongest in prepared foods at 52.5 percent, diet and nutrition products at 40.6 percent, baking seasoning and toppings at 27.1 percent, candy at 19.1 percent, and beverages at 12.1 percent. The shift follows FDA moves to phase out synthetic dyes and rising consumer demand for natural ingredients, clean labels, and greater transparency, though the report notes challenges including higher costs, supply instability, and uneven implementation without industry coordination. Retailers and manufacturers are responding, with Target removing all cereal containing synthetic colors in May, Walmart planning to eliminate synthetic dyes from private-label brands by January 2027, and Kraft Heinz and General Mills announcing removal of artificial dyes from their products by 2027. Reformulation remains difficult because natural colorants such as those from beets, grape, paprika, and turmeric can be less consistent and stable, cost up to 10 times more than synthetic dyes, and currently face limited supply, as illustrated by Welch’s Fruit Snacks taking a decade to complete its transition.
