kennedy is not remotely qualified to become the next secretary of h hhs.o confirm is about to make america sicker back rfk guarantees our kids will go to kids with his who are sick, marcus will be confused about what their rights are. >> when it comes to health and our children's house, shouldn't we all be on the same team fighting for the same cause? tonight on my few, who will talk to those voices committed to the mission from what we eat, how we move and how we think. time to take a step back and reevaluate. new health leaders taking the reins, we have the freedom to really examine what we've been told. if it means feeling better, living longer and getting more years with our loved ones, in my view, i think it's worth it. let's start with bio hacking. it sounds sci-fi but there's some real advancements being made by those willing to push the envelope in tech, biology and beyond. one of the biggest names in the field is gary brekke. >> we are a lot more sick and diseased than we deserve to be. >> this guy will change your life. your favorite actors, powe

>> yeah, hhs is open for business now to help advise and celebrate this.st they pointed out is that because the seed oil is so rancid, they ox side quickly and have to be changed quickly and tallow last longer and the cost is about equal. we're in this mess, rachel, because of the corporate capture of the medical heart association and hhs is ready and bobby to unwind and that's government giving better guidance and free market actions like this. rachel: no question. you have the top five other changes that restaurants could make. you can remove artificial -- this is your list. remove artificial dyes and eliminate antibiotics and meat and cheese production and real butter instead of liquid margin and replace dough conditioners and the food chains following the market and small restaurants and my husband coming from a little town. hayward, wisconsin, and a restaurant called social kitchen cocktails and they're advertising, it's a tiny town. no seed oils and there's an app where if you looking for a restaurant, they're on that app, other restaurants on the ap

now, to answer your second question, hhs, under the direction of secretary kennedy, has not offered anyetings were canceled. alex. >> wow. well, earlier this week, kennedy did address the growing measles outbreak. and here's what he had to say about that. >> we put out. >> a. >> post on it. >> yesterday. >> and we're going. >> to continue to follow it. incidentally, i've been for. >> measles outbreaks. this year in this country. last year there were 16. so it's not unusual in measles. >> outbreaks every year. >> is he right? and i'm curious your reaction to his response. >> there are measles cases that pop up pretty much every year. they are nearly always because someone traveled outside of the country who was not vaccinated and brought measles back into this country. fortunately, so far, you know, we haven't had outbreaks like we're seeing right now because, you know, most people are vaccinated with that mmr vaccine. you know, he really was appearing to downplay the outbreak. that's now, you know, sickened 146 people in texas alone. doctors there who i've talked with said the number is

the very first things we did was hold a press conference to talk about our concerns about rfk leading hhs. you know, we're seeing this deadly measles outbreak in texas in a community that has a high percentage of unvaccinated kids and one child died. measles is one of the most contagious and one of the most preventable diseases in the world. and it's we've got someone running our health and human services department now who's been a vaccine denier, who has profited off of spreading myths and disinformation. and we're seeing the consequences there. so i would just encourage people to remember that vaccines are one of the greatest public health accomplishments of modern human history. get your kids vaccinated. it prevents disease and death. >> i think i saw that nine out of ten unvaccinated people who are exposed to measles will get it. and it's not like covid or the flu where you have variants of you're going to get measles, it's going to be bad. measles is a very, very dangerous thing for a child to get. kelly morrison. great to see you again. thank you for being with us. the democratic c

writing on x yesterday that indicate is, quote, a top priority for me and my extraordinary team at hhsthe cdc is reporting one hundred 64 measles cases across 9 us states with at least 146 in texas. the city of austin reported its first measles case since 2019 with an unvaccinated baby testing positive. the vatican says pope francis had a peaceful and restful night's sleep after he had difficulty breathing prompting medical staff to put him on a ventilator. he was alert and oriented the entire time and responded well to treatment. 's prognosis is still guarded, the pope was admitted to the hospital two weeks ago for double pneumonia. donald trump says he is planning to pardon the late baseball legend pete rose but this would be symbolic since rose was never convicted of a crime. rose, who died last year at 83 years old was banned from baseball for life in 1989 after being caught gambling on games as a manager for the cincinnati reds, later admitting into thousand 4 that he had bet on games but only for his own team to win. trump taking to truth social also making the case for all-time

this was a callous and misinformed look from the new new hhs secretary.s opinion section for ages has trended to the left, expect newspaper joined the anti-trump resistance after 2016, but the amazon founder this week announced for now on the post's editorial page is going to champion personal liberties and free market. we at the journal did it first, and we'll still do it best, but it's nice to see a major news outlet offering readers alternative views for a change. paul: all right, joe, thanks. allysia. >> this is a miss to new jersey governor mil murphy who was out -- phil murphy who was complaining about new york's congestion tax on new jersey commuter s. meanwhile, he proposed a slew of new taxes on new jerseyers including a new tax on home sales worth more than $1 million. so so this is an effective tax on leaving new jersey for florida. if new york doesn't get you coming, new jersey will get you going. paul: all right. dan. >> i'm giving a hit the barnard college which, believe it or not, expelled two students for invading a class room on the histo

laid off several thousand people at hhs, and at the fda, they laid off hundreds of employees who worktrition, food safety response, and infant formula. that is worrying. how will we feed the newborns if we don't have any formula? for that is how we grow our babies so large. we give them... the formula! d.o.g.e. also ordered the usda's national animal health laboratory network to fire 25% of their 14 employees. that is super disturbing. because 25% of 14 is 3.5. "did you hear? they fired doug, raj, anita... and half of gary. turns out, firing a bunch of people big willy-nilly style is also pissing off the people that they want to keep working. earlier this week, to protest the layoffs of 80 workers, the fda's food safety chief resigned. great! we lost the guy in charge of food! that's one of my favorite things to put in my mouth! the fda official in question is jim jones, not the kool-aid one, and his title is -- and we're not making this up -- deputy commissioner of human foods. not to be confused with the "commissioner of humans who are food," who is, of course... >> the late, great

he hsz a new hat now, secretary of hhs, that changes how his perspective is.involved, asperis involved, i will get to the bottom of what they plan go ing forward because that area has a low vaccination rate. 14% of the kids in that county took exemption for religious or other reason. measles is most contagious respiratory virus on the planet. >> ainsley: one person has died that was not vaccinated. r.f.k. wrote vaccines protect individual children and contribute to community immunity, protecting those unable to be vaccinated due to medical reasons. do you encourage everyone to get vaccinated for this? what is your advice for parents that do not va x their kids? >> marc: i do suggest that and strongly for very young children to get protected for that exact reason and i want everyone out there to know, if you're in an area where measles is outbreaking and through reported cases in new jersey, you can still get vaccinated and within 72 hours it makes a huge difference. if you are an adult not sure of your immune status, you can get tested. i can test your blood t

actually bring the truth to light, that might actually make -- charlie: first person in history to use hhss a steppingstone to higher office. that would be truly fantastic. all right. turning now the your headlines with a fox news alert, urn certainty in the -- uncertainty in the middle east as israel has stopped the entry of goods and supplies into with gaza is. hay had received more than 25,000 trucks filled with aid meaning the civilians of gaza have not been left without aid. now israel wants to the extend phase one through passover and ramadan alongside more hostage releases, but hamas is refusing. it comes as secretary of state marco rubio has approved an additional $4 billion in military aid to israel. yahoo! now to an update on pope francis. the 88-year-old had a calm night in the hospital where with he has been for over two weeks now. he remains in stable condition after a breathing crisis on friday caused a setback in his recovery from double pneumonia. the pope just releasing a written message to the to the world from his hospital bed saying, quote, i feel in my heart the blessi

we have hhs and public health services, department of the bureau of contracting and business practices, improving small business administration, resolving federal housing, finance issues through hud, epa issues around environmental liability. there is national nuclear security on here, enforcing tax laws including the irs, improving certain fda and doi programs, improving v.a. service, cms programs, and also the regulation of the financial regulatory system, and all of these things are really about the transformation of how the federal government provides services, and i heard you just say to mr. lynch as well as to mr. -- that with respect to some of the specific programs that were asked about that the indiscriminate elimination of funding and staffing for these programs would not only fail to actually resolve the issues that you guys have identified about potentially make them worse. is that correct? >> that is a possibility. >> yes. so obviously, there's been a lot of conversation today in this committee about the actions that are being taken pursuant to doge by elon musk and this i

he was referring to the hhs secretary. in 20,000 of our kids are autistic and now it's about one out of 38, 3638 so what was the year difference. >> care as a journalist -- citing the present is not considered a reliable source that the point of the increase is true. the numbers were not that autism has increased. >> i lot of time with people with autism and technology. they do rather well for themselves i have the say. astonishing actually your version of it. i think there are diagnostics of it and we are noticing what it is and we are beginning to understand it as a thing and the idea is what to ascribe it to. and nobody knows and anyone using specifics right now is not -- no matter who they are. most of the caught system -- causes of autism is genetic. there are some theories surrounding who is getting married and having children and two people on the spectrum who get married maybe that's part of the increase. there are a bunch of reasons that are plausible. they don't have a great sense of how. one thing that's been qu

hhs has sent 2,000 vaccines down there. together with state health officials to try to get this under control and is squashed, and i think they'll succeed. molly: yeah. you also mentioned the mennonite community which canner -- which can be more likely to be unvaccinated. because that mean the the rest of -- does that mean the rest of the folks watching this should be more or less concerned? >> well, i think they should figure out what their community vaccination rate is, and this is a wake-up call, you know, for people that might think, oh, this isn't season something i have to worry about -- this isn't something i have to worry about. there's 10 million cases of meese ifings in the world, and 100,000 children die in the world every year. we stamped it out in the year 2000, europe did not. ing travelers bring it here, and we have to keep it on our radar especially now with childhood vaccination rates dropping. so that's key. i mean, staying healthy, by the way, and being well nourished helps you even if you were to get mea

visited other hhs offices or even introduced himself via email.a meeting to select strains for next season's flu shots was canceled this week, and a cdc vaccine advisory meeting was suddenly postponed. we know exactly where this cavalier attitude toward infectious diseases can lead. health officials in samoa blame rfk jr. for spreading vaccine misinformation in the small island nation ahead of a 2019 measles outbreak that left 83 people dead. kennedy has denied any role in what happened, but his latest comments also make it clear he has learned nothing from the tragedy. we only have to think back to covid to remember who gets hurt the worst when the health system breaks down, the elderly, the poor and communities of color. every republican senator voted for robert f kennedy jr. as health secretary. except one polio survivor, mitch mcconnell. if the worst happens and we have to suffer through a health catastrophe that modern science could have easily prevented, we could have easily prevented, we will know exactly (♪♪) hi neighbor! you switched to t

. >> hhs secretary robert f. kennedy jr. says his department is supplying 2000 doses of the mmr vaccine, but he's not explicitly recommending that people get the vaccine. you're shaking your head. you have a problem with what part of that or all? >> yeah. i mean, it's just. >> i. >> mean, this. >> you. >> know, bobby kennedy has built. >> a career. >> and a fortune, truly, on anti-vax rhetoric, on on. >> spreading disinformation, particularly. >> about the mmr vaccine. i mean. >> the original. >> study in england. >> by doctor wakefield that. >> suggested a link between that and autism was completely debunked. >> he admitted it. >> was fake. it was made. >> up data. >> and lost his medical license and couldn't practice medicine. yet bobby kennedy. >> has built a career. >> spreading the disinformation, and so he and others, his children's defense network, are as. much to blame for this as anybody else. you know, parents who. >> get legitimate. >> medical information from their primary care doctor. understand that, you know,

your family is less safe when you fire people who deal with drug shortages at hhs, at probably agenciesow what they do. that means that the american people will have find it harder to access drugs needed medications. so as i look through the federal government, what i am really worried about, and it's heartbreaking, these stories about federal workers. but the thing that we should all be really worried about is how those how those public servants were protecting our families, our children from measle outbreaks from, from, you know, just accidents on the freeway. and this wrecking ball approach is one where you know, it's going to be okay for elon musk because he has a private jet. but for those of us who are just flying normally, who actually drive ourselves on on the roads and bridges of america, we are getting less and less safe. and i think that's what's really crucial about all of this, which is, again, the federal government does many, many things, but just basic protection to you and your family is a critical role. >> let me ask you, you know so much about the inner workings of go

would not have been the hhs secretary. he is facing reelection. he is facing a republican primary. he's already been targeted by the right because of his vote to convict donald trump in the second impeachment trial. he's also a medical doctor. he knows full well how important vaccines are in his. and the way that rfk jr.. danced around that during the confirmation hearings, gave him a lot of pause, gave him a lot of concerns. and rfk jr. did commit to him about that. they would he would not try to undermine vaccines. and i've been asking him repeatedly about some of these early actions, whether it was rfk jr.. initially downplaying the vaccines in that cabinet meeting and also the cancellation of these meetings about including. >> i'm glad you brought that up. >> and there's it's unclear what. >> is an outside advisory group. at the fda. >> yeah. and look, if so, those kind of actions continue to be a pattern. perhaps you'll see them not running into an elevator, maybe running to the cameras and speaking out in opposition. >> yeah. i mean, boy, this is just the beginning of many mo

and hhs secretary robert f.ennedy jr., vaccine skeptic, penning an op ed asking people to get their measles shot amid an outbreak. while he says it is a personal decision, he also writes vaccines not only protect individual children from measles, but also contribute to community immunity, protecting those who are unable to be vaccinated due to medical reasons. and there's this. >> well. >> they're saying i'm firing people with no cause. but i do have cause it's cause i feel like, oh, god, what? >> another member of the trump administration is getting the saturday night live treatment. yes, that is snl legend mike myers donning a tech support t-shirt and crashing the oval office as elon musk. myers has now appeared twice this season on snl after a 20 year absence from the show. jonah, is that the right accent? >> it's a weird accent. it's close enough. >> okay, now, you may have heard of the term deepfake. it's a fake image or video made using artificial intelligence. but what if someone took that a step further

and hhs says somebody who wants to hurt us is going to read this. just write that accordingly. >> are you asking me to to to determine whether there's a consistent message coming out of doge? the answer is no. i mean, it is, you know, you can't you can't square it because it's so random off the cuff through tweets, emails sent on weekends for monday deadlines. i mean, none of it. none of it is how a stable government, uh, and its workforce ought to behave or be subject to. you know, i know people will get into the debate whether what doge is doing is, is, is going to make us more efficient and undermine it. i don't even think we get there yet. the question we have to ask ourselves is this the process that we want to streamline services, to get government employees, um, to to disclose what they are doing? and so all of these issues about are they disclosing, are they not disclosing? none of that has been determined. no one has an answer. so they're just, you know, leadership in these offices is just sort of throwing out these random things to try to

and also, we got from the hhs yesterday that they have ended the requirement of a period of public comment and notice for decisions regarding management, personnel, public property loans, grants, benefits, contracts, major changes coming under the new secretary, robert f kennedy jr.. doctor harry hyman, thank you so much for being with me. still to come, the federal reserve preferred inflation gauge cooled as expected last month. but the good news came with a potential red flag for the u.s. economy. we'll tell you what that is. >> welcome back. >> have i got news for you? new tonight on cnn. >> tap into etsy for original and affordable home and style pieces like lighting under $150 to brighten your vibe. for under $100. put your best look forward with vintage jackets or pick up custom shelving for under 50 to make space without emptying your pockets. and get cozy with linen robes for 75 or less. for affordable home and style finds to help you welcome whatever's next. etsy has it. >> you make good choices. >> always planning ahead. like to not just chase a career, but one day. follow your h

implemented into law and his first term, articulated again since then and again now by his current hhs secretary that title x funding should not flow to abortion providers? mr. bishop: in my view, my purpose as deputy director will be to employ the president's policies. sen. hawley: will you work to ensure that all federal agencies fully comply with the hyde amendment, which as you know is statutory law and has been since 1977? mr. bishop: on the does play a role in ensuring consistency of observing law across federal agencies, so certainly that would be initially given attention to. sen. hawley: to be clear, that includes the hyde amended which is in place and has been governing lawson's 1977, is that fair to say? mr. bishop: of course. sen. hawley: the weldon and then the princess kate nation against health care providers who have conscious objections to abortion. blasted ministration essentially ignored it. it is the law. in your position as you review these regulations, as you advise on the mentation of the law, will you advise every component of the government to comply with the l
