In a recent series of social media posts, President Donald Trump announced the withdrawal of Casey Means' nomination for U.S. Surgeon General, citing stalled approval in the Senate. He criticized Senator Bill Cassidy (Republican from Louisiana) for his role in blocking Means' confirmation, which had been stalled since her February hearing before the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. Trump then nominated Nicole B. Saphier, a breast radiologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and a Fox News contributor, who has raised questions about vaccines and founded an herbal supplement company. Saphier's nomination comes amid concerns about Means' qualifications, particularly her lack of an active medical license and her controversial views on vaccination. Means, who has become a prominent influencer in the wellness community, has been associated with the Make America Health Again (MAHA) movement and has faced criticism for promoting dubious health advice. Trump expressed gratitude to Means for her efforts in the MAHA movement while emphasizing his support for Saphier's nomination.
