Approval Suspension. The provision of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that specifies the circumstances in which a drug application can be withdrawn, 21 U.S.C. § 355(e), includes authority to suspend an application prior to its withdrawal. In particular, **if the Secretary of Health and Human Services 1 [refers to footnote 1] finds that a drug presents “an imminent hazard to the public health,” he may suspend the approval of the application (including a supplemental application) “immediately.”** 21 U.S.C. § 355(e). The Secretary then must “give the applicant [aka the drug manufacturer] prompt notice of his action and afford the applicant the opportunity for an expedited hearing” on whether to withdraw approval. Id. Approval may be withdrawn if, among other things, “new evidence of clinical
experience . . . evaluated together with the evidence available to [FDA] when the application was approved, shows that such drug is not shown to be safe for use under the conditions of use upon the basis of which the application was approved.” Id. § 355(e)(2).
Apart from the Secretary’s suspension authority, there are no “interim orders” FDA could issue. However, FDA possesses authority to require a sponsor to propose changes to a drug’s conditions of use, including by adding or modifying a REMS requirement related to prescribing or dispensing. The timing of implementation is...
Footnote 1: Although the Commissioner of Food and Drugs generally “execut[es]” the Secretary’s authorities under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. § 393(d)(2), **“the authority . . . to suspend approval of an application”—as distinct from withdrawal of approval—“shall not be delegated” and remains with the Secretary**, id § 355(e) (emphasis added)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4fdfjfnhhyeo4hsmoxpeazsg/bafkreigmbfgslyj2xflilnjlgfcmpvjho7265dbtjexv3vkv4u25kcnvzq@jpeg)

This 30-year-old transgender man, who can’t swim, jumped into Lake Michigan after a wind gust blew a baby in a stroller into the freezing water.
He’s being called a hero. But now he has medical expenses, and people are donating to a fundraiser to support him.

Good morning.
If you've just woken up, the politics of hope just crushed the politics of fear and hatred (Labour-Reform).
It wasn't even close.
40.6% for the Greens. Reform second on 28.7%, Labour third on 25.4%.

As we said in 2015: All the SNP had to do to wallop Labour in Scotland - Scotland, heartland for decades! - was to be a bit more anti-austerity and do lot less pandering to the Sun on migration. But the smart lads didn’t want to hear it, and they threw a decade-long hysterical tantrum instead.

we've shipped out 984,000 whistles pretty much entirely driven by this website, and sent about $25-30k worth of requested supplies to the twin cities on top of it, AND we've begun bulk buying red cards for various immigrant rights groups.

This is one thing that needs to happen.
If the deal can be slowed until Dems (goddess willing) take the House, then the corruption will be a magnet for oversight.
We need a bunch of private sector lawsuits to get this blocked, suits from a diverse array of actors with possible standing including: members of congress, states, competing media organizations, literally anything mentioned in the monopoly and FCC case law.
