Following this week's announcement that Kraft-Heinz would remove chemical dyes from food products, the MAHA movement could be on the verge of notching another victory, as reports circulated that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the Trump administration were looking to restrict pharmaceutical companies from running televised advertisements.

Here's more from ZeroHedge:

Today, Bloomberg reports that the Trump administration is now 'discussing policies that would make it harder and more expensive for pharmaceutical companies to advertise directly to patients.'

The two policies the administration has focused in on would be to require greater disclosures of side effects of a drug within each ad — likely making broadcast ads much longer and prohibitively expensive — or removing the industry's ability to deduct direct-to-consumer advertising as a business expense for tax purposes, these people said.

As an independent presidential candidate, RFK Jr. had run on a platform that included a pledge to sign an executive order to remove pharmaceutical commercials from TV.

If this happens, it would mark a major victory for Health and Human Services Secretary RFK Jr., who says he believes Americans consume more drugs than people in other countries due to the ability of US drug companies to directly advertise to consumers.

So, if you enjoy those ads with people walking barefoot on the beach while a voiceover lists the myriad of horrible side effects of the drug being pitched, watch them while you can.

They may only be available for a limited time.
