Schauer Thoughts

Here we go again! This week we’re discussing the new Monsanto pesticide verdict as well as taking a somewhat deep-dive into their history, as well as putting our *expletive* government under the microscope. I am just as sick of this as you are, the horrors seem to just seep out of the corporate and bureaucratic fabric of our lives. Thank you for joining me in this week’s communal Schauer, I understand if you need to be alone after this.

Let me reiterate my point for all who cover their ears to nuance: I am by no means saying that any of these chemicals are the SOLE cause of any chronic disorder, chronic disease, or medical condition. What I AM saying is that these chemicals, untested and unchecked, are sure as *bleep* not helping literally anyone’s health in any substantial way. 

Please feel free to run all of this by a licensed medical professional and relative experts for more information or clarification.

This was not mentioned in the video but since a lot (NOTE: that “a lot” does not mean “all”) of doctors are complicit in the abuses of the healthcare system, I would also like to suggest these resources.

Research all federal investigations against any hospital:

https://www.hospitalinspections.org/

Research financial relationships between drug & medical device companies and healthcare providers:

https://openpaymentsdata.cms.gov/

For all the medical professionals out there fighting the good fight, love that, thank you. I, personally, do not *in general* distrust *most* doctors as if I did I wouldn’t have read half these books or like my PCP as much - but you must understand, there are some really awful medical providers out there and in order to change a broken system we have to acknowledge that point. Appreciate y'all.

We’re back with another episode of Schauer Thoughts and this week we’re taking a brief trip through the Carter Administration to explore it’s ties to the agricultural industry and how that could’ve impacted women’s health research for years to come. For legal purposes, this is all a hunch, a guess, and of course, *alleged* and I strongly recommend checking out the resources when this wraps. I hope you find this episode illuminating.

To all those dealing with chronic conditions, diseases, disabilities - I want you to know that I do care about your pain, I do care about what you have to say and your experiences. I will keep reading and keep sharing because your words and life absolutely do matter. I take you all incredibly seriously and I am so sorry for the horrific treatment you have received by the healthcare system and society at large. I am sending you absolutely nothing but the best.

I will be continuing coverage of the MAHA strategy and report next week - the Trump administration’s attack on the disabled community is unacceptable and we must continue to talk about it.

Thank you all for listening, it means the world.

Welcome to Schauer Thoughts, this week we’ll be dissecting the “MAHA Report” as well as it’s strategy and “MAHA ELEVATE” proposal. Please know that there will be several more parts to this series so if there’s anything you think I didn’t get to or is worth emphasizing, I will absolutely be doing follow-ups and want you to hang tight - I very much hear and mirror your concern. Researching this episode has been heartbreaking like none other and I just appreciate you all taking the time to listen. Please review the sources below for all information, it is of the utmost importance right now that we all stay informed.

I do also plan on searching for actionable items and ways to recognize front groups, but I do need some time to collect and format that information. Please know that hope is never lost. 

Nuance: I do apologize for my poor pronunciation of some medical conditions and other words, I am someone who loves to research outside of a school context so I don’t get to hear most of these words spoken out loud by others. I foresee some red-hat-supporters running with this point for “evidence” of me being unintelligent and I’m covering my bases for when that eventually happens. My main reason for pointing this out is not to prevent people making fun of my pronunciation but more of a demonstration on how predictable some people are.

Reminder: I love answering questions, if you have an assumption on any of my political stances, please just ask. *Spoiler* I am not a fan of the United States military and have very strong, informed opinions.

Edit for 31:50 - I accidentally referred to RFK Jr. as “JFK” - this was a mistake lol.

Military Medical Information

Nuance Reminder: I am well aware that there are people in the US military that currently have these disorders/ diseases/ conditions, my *quite specific* emphasis is on the formal documentation and/or diagnosis (it’s been medically charted by a physician) of these conditions PRIOR to entering the United States military.

Apologies for the aggressive nuance, as someone raised around the military, I just know ~ deep in my soul ~ that someone is going to be so tempted to say “my boyfriends in the Army and he has ADHD!!”

I’m very happy for y’all, but again, documented and/or diagnosed before entering the United States military.
