Trump Nominates Pro-Death Fox Pundit For Surgeon General

The federal government’s HHS.gov site states, “As the Nation’s Doctor, the Surgeon General is charged with protecting and improving the health and safety of the American people.” But there is every reason to believe that Trump’s new nominee for that position, Nicole Saphier, will do nothing of the sort. For one thing, despite playing a public health and infectious disease expert on TV, all her credentials are related to breast imaging and cancer.
Saphier is board certified in diagnostic radiology. There is not a public health credential to be found. That has not stopped Saphier from spouting off her anti-vax, anti-insurance, anti-health viewpoints on Fox. We at Crooks and Liars are all too familiar with Saphier’s advocacy for less health care for Americans. In the November, 2025 video, above, Saphier revealed her “solution” for the high cost of health insurance: Have insurance cover less. She thinks it’s a great idea to go back to the days when pre-existing conditions were not covered. So, you can save a few bucks on premiums but good luck if your cancer comes back or your heart condition takes a serious turn for the worse under a different insurer! read more
