The UMACO Weekly Update by Kemal Erkan

[@fatmanursari9278]

I didn’t realize how much of an impact local/state changes can have. BRICS is definitely something to watch in the coming months.

A thorough overview of current U.S. political dynamics, from new appointments in the Trump administration to global health initiatives. The discussion on RFK Jr.'s focus on healthcare transparency and the challenges surrounding chronic diseases is especially insightful. I like the highlight on the complexities of government vs. private sector operations and the global impact of organizations like WHO.

You bring up a really good point about the challenges of navigating governance. When you’re focused on entertainment and drama, it can distract from real issues.

Great breakdown, Kemal! This week's update on U.S. politics is really eye-opening. The new appointments in Trump's cabinet are definitely going to shake things up.

RFK Jr.'s focus on transparency in healthcare is much needed, especially with the FDA's issues. We need more accountability in health regulations.

[@bernaanar9276]

I totally agree that personal beliefs often shift when people transition to governance. It’s a lot harder to implement everything you believe when you have to consider the bigger picture.

I never realized how many moving parts are involved in healthcare reform. The bureaucracy Mr.Erkan mentions is such a huge hurdle.

"Interesting to see the discussion on BRICS’ impact. With their growing economic power, it feels like the U.S. needs to step up its international engagement."

[@ozylmzz15460]

I agree with the point on chronic diseases. Obesity is definitely a complex issue, and it needs to be addressed from a multi-angle approach.

[@salim-f3w]

The healthcare system in the U.S. is so bogged down by bureaucracy, it’s no wonder there’s so much resistance to reform.

[@BerreGodek]

I’m curious to see how the Senate reacts to the new appointees...

[@muratcakicii]

Healthcare reform faces so many roadblocks, especially with so many vested interests in keeping things the way they are.

[@eceyetis2475]

RFK Jr.'s healthcare goals are bold but challenging.

[@leenakorkmaz]

I am curious about your thoughts on Trump's pick of Dr. Mehmet Oz as the CMS's lead. As someone who follows the news from Turkey, I don't have much information about what Dr. Oz can do - especially about cost savings.

[@gpunlu]

I’m still skeptical about how the U.S. will handle global health initiatives post-WHO withdrawal. The lack of leadership is noticeable.

[@Samet.unver97]

The investigations into Matt Gaetz are something to keep an eye on. If he’s nominated for Attorney General, it could cause a lot of political headaches. #UnitedTV #UMACO

"I can’t believe the FDA relies so much on industry funding. It’s crazy how much potential for conflict of interest there is in that system."

[@bengususuyuncu11223]

The potential return to withdrawing from the WHO under Trump would be a huge step backward. Its non-military influence is critical for global health initiatives.

[@snisakabak]

The conversation around Elon Musk potentially holding a government role is intriguing. It’s hard to imagine someone like him navigating bureaucratic constraints.

Electric vehicle subsidies spark debate again.
