[Collection]Jamie WhiteFood and Drug administration ridiculed online after pointing out that, actually, 47% of its funding comes from Big Pharma.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was mercilessly mocked online after attempting to fact-check Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s claim that half of the agency’s funding comes from pharmaceutical companies.

In a pathetic attempt to dunk on RFK Jr., the FDA pointed out that Big Pharma was actually responsible for 47% of its funding, not 50%.

“This figure is not accurate as industry user fees only make up about 47% of the FDA’s total agency budget,” an agency spokesperson said in a statement.

Naturally, the FDA’s hair-splitting statement was ridiculed on social media.

RFK Jr. had previously claimed that “half” or “nearly half” of the FDA’s budget came from pharmaceutical companies.

More recently, Kennedy asserted that Big Pharma funding accounted for about 75% of the FDA’s budget.

Kennedy exposed the FDA’s conflict of interest Saturday on Fox News while explaining the harmful effects of seed oils, processed foods and pesticides used by the agriculture industry.

“The USDA, the FDA have been captured by the industries they’re supposed to regulate,” he said. “And they all have an interest in subsidies and then mass poisoning the American public.”
