Marty Makary was supposed to be one of President Donald Trump’s more conventional advisers. Instead, tension and controversy have clouded his tenure. Insiders say one more high-profile misstep could put the FDA commissioner’s job at risk. bloomberg.com/news/features/…

Sorry about your experience and loss of your mother. I know this is a difficult situation you are in as well. We are at a crucial juncture for truth and transparency, where it is vital that all data is accounted for and accessible, regardless of the situation. The presence of missing data discrepancies within the FDA and major pharmaceutical companies raises serious ethical and moral concerns. Tackling this issue is essential for realigning the FDA’s mission to prioritize safety and efficacy. The pressing question is: will they take action? Ensuring that all data is publicly available will empower individuals to make informed decisions about their healthcare. This transparency will foster a new approach to decision-making, allowing consumers to weigh the benefits, risks, and costs associated with their healthcare choices more effectively. I put my daughter at risk by seeking ineffective and costly drugs for her multiple sclerosis. These treatments not only strain our finances but could also jeopardize her health in the long run. The understanding of this disease is still limited, and many people manage well without medication, yet modern medicine often insists on very expensive drug interventions. While the condition does require attention, the available drugs frequently cause harm and fail to deliver results. It's crucial that we take a closer look at multiple sclerosis, as it affects a small population and results in significant costs—not just in taxpayer money but in the lives and well-being of those impacted, leading to avoidable premature death and disability. What has truly changed in the advancements of multiple sclerosis from the past? Money that’s what has changed money ! 💰

Spot on @Elijahjstacy - patients deserve simple clarity on the FDA’s true role. FDA approval is not an endorsement that a drug is “incredible” or the best on the market. It’s like a building permit: it simply confirms the therapy meets rigorous standards for safety and efficacy. Once that permit is granted & the drug reaches the market, FDA is only one of four layers of protection & decision-making. Patients can choose not to take it, doctors can decide not to prescribe it, and insurers can opt not to pay if it’s not right for that individual. Taking away choice because a drug isn’t “absolutely perfect” means patients and physicians never even get the option to consider it. Putting patients first means preserving every possible tool—so families and doctors can decide together.
Elijah Stacy@Elijahjstacy

One thing I think would really help patient communities is a better understanding of FDA’s role. What does FDA actually do? What does it not do? What does “approval” really mean? What does “making a drug available” actually mean? Patients need to understand this process more clearly so we can advocate more effectively and have a better relationship with FDA. We have to know each other in order to help each other. I’d love for someone with real regulatory/medical experience to explain this simply for my fellow patients.

There’s a difference between supporting access and maintaining a credible evidentiary standard. When the focus shifts toward making any option available, it can blur the question FDA is actually tasked with answering: does the evidence support a favorable benefit–risk profile?

$qure $clpt New WSJ article on Makary, got ripped to pieces and really laid out the entire soap opera from start to finish. The whole article is pretty remarkable. Some parts of the article. “My sources say that patience with Dr. Makary is wearing thin among Republicans in Congress and White House officials. It’s time for Mr. Trump to pull the plug on the Makary show.” “Has any Trump administration official caused more political headaches for the president than Marty Makary? His Food and Drug Administration has turned into a soap opera, with real lives hanging in the balance.” Ditto a gene therapy by UniQure for the brutal neurodegenerative Huntington’s Disease, which slowed progression by 75% in a clinical trial. The FDA has demanded the company run another trial in which some patients would have to undergo sham brain surgery to serve as a control group. This is unethical. To add insult to injury, after Huntington’s patients blasted Dr. Makary and the FDA, a spokesperson for the agency derided them on social media as “the swamp.” In a CNBC interview, Dr. Makary claimed the drug had “no benefit” and that the agency was being “pressured to approve” it by industry. Dr. Makary is slicker than a pharmaceutical salesman. In public interviews, he boasts about accelerating access to gene therapies and rare-disease drugs, even as he and his deputies block them. When FDA rejections draw criticism, he uses “industry” as a bogeyman. Lawmakers aren’t buying his act.

The FDA under Makary isn't dominated by Big Pharma. It isn't captured by the 'swamp' of Huntington's victims and their families either. It's run by the money of John Arnold the ex-Enron betting addict. His former Arnold Ventures employee Katherine Szarama is now acting CBER director. The real swamp stinks from the head. #TimeMatters #AMT130 $QURE

Great, another @johnarnold bought and paid for shill at CBER. Come on Congress, stop this already and put @us_fda back on the proper track. After what they did to the HD community with @uniQure_NV $QURE AMT130 plus decisions on other rare diseases, get John Arnold's influence out of this once respected agency. @SenRonJohnson @SenRickScott @RepAuchincloss @houmanhemmati @adamfeuerstein @l_e_whyte @temple_west @laurencurehd @JRenz0418 @rachelreising96 @BeckyQuick @MariaBartiromo @bradloncar @docrodwong @LuckyPenguin10 @SECGov @johnarnold @DrMakaryFDA @VPrasadMDMPH @POTUS @SenateAging @SenBillCassidy @SenRandPaul @WhiteHouse @SusieWiles @StevenCheung47 @StevenCheung @Scavino47 @PressSec @SecKennedy @MariaBartiromo @RickSantorum @FoxNews @bariweiss @60Minutes @CNBC @WSJopinion @WSJ @statnews @BillAckman @Loftus @MartinShkreli

$qure $clpt Here is the full Grace science article, a lot of crazy stuff in this one. It was the manufacturing but it seems the fda also said plausible mechanism is only for n of 1 which contradicts with public statements from leaders of the fda as the article points out. This is so bad that the company is actually thinking of going to China… Extremely fascinating read and a must read. Makary get your shit together, this is really embarrassing. The FDA needs change immediately, if that doesn’t scream that Makary is the wrong guy for this job I don’t know what is. The manufacturing requirement, rather than the clinical evidence, is now the gating issue. @RepAuchincloss @SenRonJohnson @SenRickScott @SenGillibrand @WhiteHouse @FrankLuntz @SusieWiles @BeckyQuick @HDSA @HDBuzzFeed @Help4HDI @adamfeuerstein @MartinShkreli @laurencurehd @DesertDweller93 @houmanhemmati @SaraGonzalesTX

Grace Science’s experience highlights a growing disconnect at FDA between talk and action on therapies for rare diseases. Despite efficacy signals in a monogenic ultrarare disease, FDA said the plausible mechanism framework is not available, and requires a new manufacturing run—potentially delaying approval by years and condemning patients to irreversible decline and death, and threatening the company’s survival.

A person flew to China, got a kidney "in short order," and someone in the family wrote it like a comedy in a book ‘Larry’s Kidney.’ Jan Jekielek told @DrPhil what the author probably didn't grasp: someone was likely killed for it.

Things Marty Makary's FDA has said out loud in 2026: • AMT-130 patients are "moneyed interests" • The drug has "morbidity associated with it" (it's brain surgery, Marty) • Sham surgery is just "one to three nicks in the scalp" These are real quotes. From the commissioner. About dying people.
