RFK Jr. tells Joe Rogan he was not ‘particularly happy’ with Trump’s glyphosate order

Trump’s order to boost glyphosate production splits the Make America Healthy Again movement as critics cite health concerns while administration stresses food supply security.

  • On Feb. 18, President Donald Trump invoked the Defense Production Act to boost glyphosate, prompting backlash from the Make America Healthy Again movement while Kennedy admitted he was not "particularly happy" but still defended the order.
  • The White House argued the order is about national security, but many in MAHA see glyphosate as a mortal enemy, rooted in Kennedy's longstanding pesticide opposition.
  • Regulatory bodies remain divided on glyphosate's cancer risk, with IARC classifying it as "probably carcinogenic" while the EPA says it can be used safely; Bayer settled for $7.25 billion and faces almost 200,000 claims.
  • With less than nine months to go until the midterms, the order is creating fissures in the Make America Healthy Again movement, with Kelly Ryerson saying `This EO is feeling very, very much like the breaking point` and Rep. Chellie Pingree pushing to revoke it.
  • Kennedy warned that removing inputs overnight could 'destroy the American food system,' while the administration argues it can shift toward regenerative agriculture without destabilizing supplies.
