Setback

FDA Commissioner Marty Makary resigns

Marty Makary resigned as FDA Commissioner after 13 months, reportedly amid White House frustration over flavored e-cigarette authorizations and a slow mifepristone review — with Trump reportedly signing off on a firing. Makary cited 50 reforms including faster reviews and psychedelics guidance. Deputy food commissioner Kyle Diamantas is acting.
