Letter to FTC: Investigate Casey Means' Potential Violations of Influencer Marketing Standards - Public Citizen February 4, 2026 Chris Mufarrige Director, Bureau of Consumer Protection Federal Trade Commission 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20580…

Our Surgeon General nominee doesn’t have a license to practice medicine but does have a pending FTC complaint for failing to disclose her financial relationships the majority of times she promoted (woo) products during the period between Jan 1, 2024-Aug 8, 2025 (from her own financial disclosures)

Opinion | Casey Means' Cringey Senate Hearing Should Sink Her Surgeon General Bid The nominee revealed her fundamental confusion between individual healthcare and public health

β€œBefore even getting to her views on public health issues, there is absolutely nothing in Means' background to suggest she would be qualified to serve as surgeon general. No clinical experience, no public health training - just a large social media presence with a sketchy business background”

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.

Wellness influencer picked by Trump for surgeon general grilled by Senate Critics concerned as Casey Means, aligned with RFK Jr on vaccine stance, does not have active medical license

This is obvious, but I'm gonna say it anyway...

The fact that this wellness grifter is being normalized and legitimized by the nomination and (inevitable) appointment is a powerful symbol of how far the U.S. has fallen.

Dark Age 2.0.

"Kennedy has continued to spread misinformation and push politicised agendas at the expense of the country’s most vulnerable"

"Calls for his resignation now number in the thousands."

This may be the ultimate test of our medical boards. While maybe not explicitly illegal to help a child rapist cover up medical evidence of sexual violence against children, most of these confirmed stories violate mandatory reporting laws … in addition to the basic medical ethics and professionalism
