Jim Jones, head of the FDA's Food Division, resigned on February 18, 2025, in protest of the mass firings initiated by President Trump. Jones's role involved ensuring the safety of the U.S. food supply. His resignation comes amidst a significant reduction in federal personnel, raising concerns about the integrity of regulatory agencies under the current administration. The move follows the confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the Secretary of Health and Human Services, which has led to further scrutiny regarding the direction of health-related policies.

BREAKING: Jim Jones, Head of the FDA's Food Division, just resigned to protest President Trump's mass firings.
"I was looking forward to working to pursue the department’s agenda of improving the health of Americans by reducing diet-related chronic disease and risks from chemicals in food." He further said that given the new administration’s “disdain for the very people” needed to make these changes, it would be “fruitless for me to continue in this role.”
Keep resigning, you frauds. BEST PROTEST EVER.
