In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica talks with USA Today reporter Erin Mansfield about the Trump administration's efforts to overhaul and reduce the federal workforce. They discuss the administration's push for greater executive power, the agencies hit hardest by job cuts, and the impact on public services like education and food safety. Erin also explains the legal battles unfolding over these changes, including the significance of the landmark Supreme Court case Humphrey's Executor and the future independence of federal agencies. Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:The Federal Workforce Under the Trump Administration: Trump's administration is undertaking dramatic efforts to reshape--and notably reduce--the federal workforce, prompting widespread job insecurity, potential displacements, and structural overhauls throughout the government.Who is Affected by Federal Workforce Reductions: Erin outlines which agencies are most impacted. Socially-oriented agencies—like the Department of Education, Health and Human Services, USDA, and the Environmental Protection Agency—face the brunt of the cutbacks, while national security, law enforcement, and immigration agencies are largely exempt. She clarifies that massive cuts are not equally distributed across all departments. Real-Life Impacts of Workforce Reduction: Jessica and Erin discuss how these changes might touch everyday Americans. Reductions in the workforce could affect everything from food safety inspections and educational grant administration to public health services and climate research—potentially making certain public services less effective or slower.Follow Our Host and Guest: @LevinsonJessica@_erinmansfield

Misty Skolnick, co-owner of Uncle Jerry's Pretzels in Lancaster County is our first guest on the program today! Misty shares how her co-owner father Jerry began the company in 1988--delivering pretzels in the Delaware Valley--as well as the company's growth and development from local business to having a national presence. Uncle Jerry's Pretzels have been free of oil, sugar, preservatives and article dyes since the company's inception. Skolnick discusses how this comes into play today, with new Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s recent warnings to PepsiCo, General Mills and other large food companies that one of his top priorities will be eliminating artificial dyes from our nation’s food supply to combat growing rates of chronic disease and other health issues among Americans. Retired FBI agent Scott Payne also joins the show to discuss his new book, Code Name: Pale Horse: How I Went Undercover to Expose America's Nazis. Payne, a decorated agent dubbed the “Hillbilly Donnie Brasco,” takes readers along with him on some of the most terrifying and riskiest assignments in FBI history. He went deep undercover with the lethal Outlaw Motorcycle Club in Massachusetts; to the front lines of the opioid epidemic in Tennessee; and infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan in Alabama. Through it all, he stayed married to the love of his life, raised two girls, and spent his Sundays at church, sustained by family and faith.

Wages and White Lion Investments (dba Trion Distribution) and Vapetasia manufacture and sell flavored nicotine-containing liquids for use in refillable e-cigarette systems. They applied for FDA approval in 2020; about ten months later the FDA announced new requirements for approval and, based on those requirements, denied the applications citing the deficiency. The manufacturers challenged the denial and the Fifth Circuit, sitting en banc, found the FDA's actions were arbitrary and capricious.

On this important episode of Vitality Radio, we're not just talking about supplements - we're tackling a critical health freedom issue that every supplement consumer needs to understand. The Dietary Supplement Registration Act is a new bill that could drastically change the supplement landscape in the U.S. This bill could not only push small and medium sized businesses, like Vitality Nutrition, out of the market, but you will see the prices of your supplements increase dramatically and your options decrease significantly. Jared gives you a clear view of how regulated the supplement industry already is and why further regulation would do more harm than good. You'll also learn about the incredible double standard between pharmaceutical drugs and supplements.Additional Information:Calley & Casey Means: How Big Pharma Keeps You SickVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalityradio and @vitalitynutritionbountiful on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

On July 2, 2024, the US Supreme Court granted certiorari in the case, Food and Drug Administration v. Wages and White Lion Investments, LLC. In Explainer Episode 70, expert Jeff Stier discusses the FDA's regulatory action prohibiting specific vape flavors from being sold by these two companies, and the legal issues that the Supreme Court will review in the October 2024 term. What are the implications of the FDA prohibiting the sale of these vape flavors? What regulatory process did the FDA use to make this determination? Why did the FDA decide to allow certain vape flavors, and not others? What are the effects on the FDA's decision in this case on smokers? In promoting public health? On consumers? On the companies?

Though the Pink Pills couldn't stand up to the wild advertising claims that the product was a cure-all, the pills were actually potentially medically beneficial to some people with a certain -- common -- condition; in theory.

William Bailey called himself a doctor, but his career was as a shady businessman, not a medical professional. In the early 20th century, he launched a series of start-up companies, capitalizing on the new discoveries of radioactive elements, and sold patent medicine products with lethal radioactive substances with unproven promises to cure everything from arthritis to impotence – it was said they could help you regain your youth.

On Friday, April 8, 2023, Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk issued an unprecedented ruling out of Texas that has the ability to impact medication abortion access nationwide. Mark Joseph Stern, senior writer at Slate covering courts and the law, sits down to talk to us about the recent ruling on mifepristone, what the FDA can do, and what this currently means for medication abortion access in the U.S. The Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. The FDA was overseen by Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, who has a vast history of anti-LGBTQ+, anti-reproductive health and rights rulings, including blocking contraceptive access for Texas teens under the Title X program on the grounds of parental religious objection. For a deep-dive into the case itself, you can find more information in our recent podcast episode.  Never before has a federal judge claimed the authority to revoke or suspend the FDA's approval for a drug. This ruling has also positioned the pharmaceutical industry to become much more involved in conversations surrounding abortion rights, due to their recognition of the threat at the core of this ruling—that endless cases could attempt to block medications on the hypothetical grounds that they could harm somebody else's patient in the future. This precedent undoubtedly threatens gender-affirming medications and other medications, as well.  The decision included a number of anti-science, anti-medicine rhetoric to justify the ruling. The complication rate of medication abortion is incredibly low, and the serious complication rate is near zero. Yet Judge Kacsmaryk cited a “study” funded by an anti-abortion, far-right institute claiming mifepristone causes harm to patients. Judge Kacsmaryk used language rooted in “fetal personhood,” throughout the ruling. In addition, Judge Kacsmaryk referenced the Comstock Act—an antiquated, Victorian-era law that banned the mailing of “sexual materials, birth control, or abortion-causing drugs” and is very carefully applied to avoid unconstitutionality –in the ruling to support his claims.   Judge Thomas Rice's ruling out of Washington state ruled that the FDA continue allowing mifepristone in the 17 states and D.C. which brought the case, leading to a stay on the FDA's ability to alter mifepristone's status while deliberation occurred, and resulting in a preemptive measure intended to conflict with Kacsmaryk's decision.

Le bouquin a été publié la première fois en 1719 (il ya plus de 300 ans) et dedans il ya un paquet de food hack.Naufragé sur une île déserte, Crusoe n'a ni charrue, ni four, ni KitchenAid. Aucun problème. Il trouve des astuces pour transformer son précieux stock de maïs en pains fraîchement cuits. Tout au long de l'histoire, les cuisiniers de toutes les cultures ont inventé des moyens de surmonter le manque d'outils de cuisine conventionnels.

Elle a dit que c'était comme manger un cheesesteak de PhiladelphiaInspiré par Frost, Lee a posté une vidéo similaire, mais a ajouté sa propre touche. Frost, qui a 10,7 millions d'adeptes sur TikTok, a plongé la quesadilla dans la vinaigrette au miel de la chaîne. Il a ensuite essayé un autre hack salé - il a mélangé la vinaigrette avec de la crème pour créer une sauce "Chipotle Ranch" pour la quesadilla.partir du 2 mars, Chipotle permet aux clients d'ajouter des légumes fajita à n'importe quelle quesadilla.La vinaigrette au miel de la chaîne sera également disponible en accompagnement de toutes les quesadillas.Les food hacks sont-ils devenus les nouvelles recettes en ligne ?Découper facilement une pastèque avec du fil dentaireFaire un Guacamole facilement en balançant tout dans un sac plastique pour ensuite l'écraser à la main : Pas une journée ne passe sans que mon feed ne me propose un nouveau food Hack.

PETA is thrilled about it too. But is the technology ready.5 Things Sunday Host James Brown and USA TODAY Patient Safety Enterprise Reporter Karen Weintraub discuss the implications of this new law, what makes it possible and if or when drugs not tested on animals will make it on the market.If you have a comment about the show or a question or topic you'd like us to discuss, send James Brown an email at jabrown@usatoday.com or podcasts@usatoday.com.
