It wasn't fine for decades. Both democrats and republicans allowed regulatory capture to take place.

Perhaps. But did democrats famously take a “chainsaw for ‘government waste’” to all major federal agencies? No. That was a handful of Republican edgelords.

Oh yes of course, both sides. That's why there were huge cyclospora outbreaks in 2022. Because of the Democrats.

You can track food outbreaks by administration pretty easily. This isn’t hidden knowledge.

		These bootlicking cowards all play the same game. 6 years ago, none of these dipshits had any complaints about the FDA besides - maybe - that it was a bit slow approving new medications. Then Trump 2.0 comes along and puts the known fascist and all-around shit heal musk in charge of gutting the federal government. Now the FDA isn’t working, USAID is gone, FEMA is a disaster, we’re critically short of air traffic controllers, and on and on it goes but anytime someone points out the obvious damage that the republicans have done the legion of drooling racists comes around to babble about how actually the FDA was broken the whole time. It’s insulting to anyone with a memory that isn’t wholly owned by Rupert Murdoch.

yes, Democrats put ideologues in charge of the EPA, took a 'chainsaw' to government, and gutted the agencies.

you're so right.

go peddle your mediocrity somewhere else.
