US Gov't FDA and CDC can already be FOI'd.

Records from neither department will cover ongoing "bribery" of regular doctors by Pharma reps, so it's unclear how "we need this" to address that.

They can be FOIA'd, for all the good that will do you. They apparently have, according to the news, employees dedicated to deleting records before they can be FOIA'd, they use burner phones and private email accounts, and when caught the agency boss will say "I don't know who my personal assistant was working for when he did that" in front of Congress.

And get away with it.

In a matter that regarded some two million or so deaths in the US.

[0]: "Fauci concedes wrongdoing at NIAID, just not by him": '“That was wrong and inappropriate and violated policy,” Fauci said of Morens’s scheme to “disappear” problematic emails. “He should not have done that.”

Fauci’s chief of staff was in on the scheme. Emails show that Gregory Folkers intentionally misspelled the name of Kristian Andersen, a tactic Morens suggested to avoid FOIA, after Andersen received an $8.9 million NIAID grant, which came two months after he authored a paper arguing that it was “improbable” that COVID-19 had a lab origin.'

and how, exactly, does any of that have any bearing on

> Drug company employees who attempt to bribe a doctor

in the context of non US Government Pharma companies paying non Government doctors to spruik drugs on twitter and by prescription?

Because a huge part of the regulatory agencies’ monies comes from royalty payments from the companies they’re supposed to be managing.

And the obstruction of the FOIA process helps entrench the resulting corruption.

Payments from pharmaceutical companies to physicians are already publicly disclosed.

And if I'm not a US citizen and the drug company bribing the doctor isn't in the US? There's more places around the world, you know.

Then a thread talking what the FDA and SEC do is not a place where your experience is helpful.

> Doctors who fail to disclose an interest should lose their license.

I didn't realize all doctors are regulated by the FDA and SEC. The statement at the beginning of the thread doesn't specify doctors in the US.

Yeah but then you’re voting for RFK.
