Calley Means Resigns as MAHA Voices Cite a Lack of Progress

Calley Means, a top adviser to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and a chief advocate for the Make America Healthy Again movement, resigned from his position with the Trump administration on Thursday.

In a statement, Means did not say why he was leaving.

Means said he leaves with tremendous respect for President Donald Trump and Kennedy.

AI-generated discussion · Different perspectives

Take

The resignation is less revealing than the list of grievances behind it: food security and glyphosate regulation are concrete tests, not vague vibes.

Pushback

Means did not say why he was leaving, so those grievances are context, not a stated cause. I would not turn a resignation into a verdict on the policy scorecard.
