Who was a Big pharma insider and lobbyist, and then, after that, the Trump administration appointed him, and he went back to work for them.
The FDA regulates prescription painkillers — and Trump's nominee to run it has raked in big speaking fees from the opioid industry.

". . . Gottlieb was also paid as a speaker by Johnson & Johnson, which owns a subsidiary that produces the opioid painkiller Nucynta, in January of last year. The federal drug payment disclosure database shows that Gottlieb received payments from Pfizer, the manufacturer of several opioid products, in 2015.
On a call with reporters on Tuesday, Sens. Ed. Markey, D-Mass., and Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, announced their opposition to Gottlieb’s nomination, citing his opioid industry ties.
“People die because of the opioid epidemic,” said Brown. “We need all hands on deck to fight this crisis, including and especially the FDA. Unfortunately Dr. Gottlieb’s record indicates that as commissioner he wouldn’t take the epidemic and the FDA’s authority to rein in prescription painkillers and other drugs seriously enough.”
Markey, who opposed President Barack Obama’s last FDA commissioner, Dr. Robert Califf, on grounds that the agency was moving too fast to approve dangerous new prescription painkillers, voiced similar concerns over Trump’s nominee.
“Dr. Gottlieb has also said he wants the FDA approval process to move faster, and that FDA has too high of a standard for safety. I strongly disagree with that,” said Markey during the call.. . ."
That? Is who Trump chose for FDA. Drain the swamp indeed.
. . . and then there was this too pointed out. . .

". . .Effective January 1, 2012, Azar became president of Lilly USA, LLC, the largest division of Eli Lilly and Company, and was responsible for the company's entire operations in the United States.[21] Prices for drugs rose substantially under Azar's leadership, including the tripling of the cost of the company's top-selling insulin drug. Also under Azar's watch, Eli Lilly was one of three companies accused in a class-action lawsuit of exploiting the drug pricing system to increase profits for insulin. Eli Lilly was also fined in Mexico for colluding on the price of insulin.[22][23] In connection with the position, Azar served on the board of directors of the Biotechnology Innovation Organization, a pharmaceutical lobby.[24]
In January 2017, Azar resigned from Eli Lilly "to pursue other career opportunities" as a result of a company reorganization.[25] He also resigned from the board of directors of the Biotechnology Innovation Organization. In his last year at the corporation he earned $2 million.[26] . ."
AND THAT?!?
"On November 13, 2017, President Trump announced via Twitter that he would nominate Azar to be the next Secretary of Health and Human Services.[24][27]"
Cherry picking indeed. The jab? Is the fucking topic you tool. I have given you the sources and the evidence. If you don't wish to engage with them? That is your business.
And you? Accusing me? Of not liking "orange man?" Is just about the stupidest and most inane thing any member could accuse me of.
Between tweedle dee, and tweedle dumb, in a contest of "America's Next Top President," I don't think it makes much of a difference. . however, most folks have seen me lean toward, "Wanna be Dictator-in-Chief," than, "Dementia-Gropers McSniffs a Lot."
When the blue check twitteraiti, accuses you MAGATS, of acting like a cult, I usually think, that
they are the ones incapable of not being criticized, and not owning up to factual reality. Thanks for proving me wrong on this.
