John Oliver criticized Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) campaign, labeling it a blend of fringe health trends and commercialism, rather than legitimate policy initiatives. He acknowledged some valid concerns people may have with health institutions but focused on exposing the pseudoscience and shallow achievements of MAHA during a 30-minute segment. Highlights included mockery of Kennedy's branding tactics, including selling merchandise, and absurd events that involved influencers consuming unusual health concoctions at the White House, underscoring the movement's credibility issues.
Oliver emphasized that the Make America Healthy Again campaign is more focused on monetization and branding than genuine policy change, highlighting its reduction to a series of gimmicks.
He pointed out that Kennedy invited influencers to the White House, illustrating the absurdity of the event by showcasing a podcaster's raw meat and milk consumption, which he ridiculed.
