History Repeating: The Century-Long Delay Tactic Déjà vu
In the 1880s, America first acknowledged the dangers of tobacco to children. Politicians responded superficially—banning cigarette sales to minors, yet carefully avoiding regulation that might threaten industry profits. A full century passed before the government finally placed explicit health warnings on cigarette packs in the 1980s.
Today, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s proposal to ban cell phones in schools eerily mirrors that earlier deception. And similarly, the newly released 2025 MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) report, meant to guide public health, resorts to outdated science—citing no EMF studies beyond mid-2022, shockingly ignoring recent WHO conclusions published in April 2024 and 2025 declaring EMF radiation a high-certainty cause of cancer and infertility.
America, we’ve seen this before. This is not protection—it’s a delay tactic, politically convenient but biologically catastrophic.
RFK Jr.’s Phone Ban: Symbolic Action, Dangerous Inaction
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s plan to ban cell phones in schools initially sounds commendable. Yet, beneath this veneer lies a troubling reality—it distracts public attention from the deeper threat: omnipresent cell towers and wireless infrastructure emitting continuous radiation. Restricting children’s handheld phones while leaving these powerful towers untouched is like forbidding matches in children’s hands while their home burns uncontrollably around them.
By focusing solely on children’s behavior and not the infrastructure causing harm, RFK Jr. replicates the hollow symbolic gestures Big Tobacco relied upon for decades. Such actions protect industry profits while delaying meaningful regulation, potentially condemning another generation to preventable harm.
The MAHA Report: Outdated Science Serving Corporate Interests
The 2025 MAHA report promised the latest, cutting-edge science. Instead, it cited only four EMF-related studies—Frank (2021), Yu (2021), Melnick (2020), and Bodewein (2022)—all published before mid-2022. Astonishingly, the MAHA report ignored the World Health Organization’s landmark reviews:
-
April 2024 WHO report: confirmed “high certainty” evidence linking RF exposure to impaired male fertility.
-
April 2025 WHO report: concluded “high certainty” evidence that RF radiation causes malignant brain and heart tumors.
Ignoring these findings isn’t just oversight—it’s deliberate, serving to protect powerful telecom interests by claiming EMF science remains “uncertain.” This strategy, historically perfected by Big Tobacco, ensures another generation of children remains at risk.
Corporate Capture: MAHA’s Selective Blindness
The MAHA report notably addresses corporate biases influencing pesticides and pharmaceuticals yet conspicuously omits wireless-industry funding bias—one of the most well-documented examples globally.
Scientific reviews by Henry Lai, Huss et al., and others have repeatedly shown industry-funded EMF studies vastly under-report health effects compared to independent research. By ignoring this blatant bias, the MAHA report perpetuates a dangerous illusion of safety, placing profits above children’s health.
Section 704: America’s Greatest Constitutional and Health Crisis
At the core of this crisis is Section 704 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, signed by President Clinton, stripping communities and states of their constitutional rights under the First and Tenth Amendments to oppose cell tower siting based on health concerns.
This unconstitutional provision protects telecom corporations from accountability, allowing them to externalize massive health costs onto American children. Simultaneously, FCC guidelines—crafted decades ago using thermal-only models—deliberately ignore modern evidence of non-thermal, biological harm proven conclusively by recent WHO and NTP studies.
The Science is Settled: Nonlinear, Low-Level Biological Harm
Two groundbreaking studies have fundamentally shifted the scientific landscape:
-
Ramazzini Institute Study: Replicated National Toxicology Program (NTP) cancer findings at power levels mimicking real-world exposure far below current FCC guidelines.
-
NTP Study: Revealed a critical non-linear dose response, with lower radiation doses sometimes causing more severe biological damage than higher doses—a scenario completely impossible within the outdated FCC thermal-only model.
Such studies conclusively dismantle current safety assumptions, showing clearly that even minimal chronic exposure from distant towers causes catastrophic harm.
The Spectrum Auction Scandal: Corporate Profits Over Children’s Lives
FCC’s dual role as both spectrum auctioneer and public-health regulator constitutes an inherent conflict of interest—auctioning billions of dollars of spectrum and then declaring that same radiation “safe.” This arrangement is tantamount to selling a carcinogen openly at public auction.
Just as Big Tobacco once evaded accountability by incremental regulation, today’s telecom giants benefit from superficial policy gestures like school cell phone bans, allowing spectrum auctions—and the harm they cause—to continue unchecked.
Public Law 90-602: Defunded and Ignored
Public Law 90-602 mandates continuous research and regular safety updates on radiation-emitting products. Yet after the NTP’s groundbreaking findings linking wireless radiation to cancer, the Biden administration abruptly defunded further research—directly violating federal law and ensuring that FCC’s outdated standards remain in place unchallenged.
Ethical Imperative: Protecting Vulnerable Children
Children’s rapid cell replication, thinner skulls, and lifetime cumulative exposures render them uniquely vulnerable to RF radiation. Continued political delay in acknowledging and addressing the full scale of EMF risk is morally indefensible.
What Real Leadership Looks Like
President Trump, you campaigned to “drain the swamp,” yet the deepest swamp lies in Section 704 and FCC’s fraudulent guidelines. Here’s exactly what bold leadership demands:
-
Repeal Section 704 Immediately: Restore constitutional rights to local communities.
-
Replace FCC’s Fraudulent Guidelines: Institute biologically based safety standards acknowledging nonlinear, non-thermal harm.
-
Reinstate and Fund the NTP: Fully comply with Public Law 90-602, mandating continuous independent research into wireless safety.
-
Mandate Li-Fi and Safe-Tech Solutions: Move aggressively away from microwave radiation, promoting safer technologies.
-
Conduct Congressional Investigations: Fully expose the decades of telecom industry manipulation and regulatory capture.
President Trump’s Historic Opportunity
Throughout American history, true presidential greatness emerged from confronting crises inherited from predecessors. Lincoln faced secession; Roosevelt confronted the Great Depression; Reagan ended the Cold War. Today, President Trump faces a microwave-age crisis fueled by regulatory fraud, corporate greed, and constitutional abuse.
By repealing Section 704, restoring scientific integrity, and protecting America’s children, President Trump has an unprecedented chance to demonstrate transformative leadership and secure his legacy as a protector of future generations.
It’s Time for Real Action, Not Another Century of Delay
RFK Jr.’s symbolic cell-phone ban and the outdated MAHA report represent dangerous delay tactics echoing Big Tobacco’s century-long deception. America’s children can’t afford another hundred years of preventable tragedy.
The science is clear. The history undeniable. The politics transparent.
America must act decisively—right now.
Repeal Section 704. Restore local rights. End the corporate spectrum heist. Safeguard our children’s biology from ongoing auction to the highest bidder.
Immediate Steps You Can Take:
-
Demand Congressional Action: Contact representatives to repeal Section 704.
-
Support independent EMF oversight: Insist on EPA and NIH oversight, not FCC.
-
Push for NTP funding restoration: Immediate funding to restart independent research.
-
Advocate Safe-Tech Alternatives: Mandate Li-Fi compatibility, reduce microwave dependency.
-
Share this message widely: Inform and mobilize communities to reclaim public health autonomy.
Final Appeal
President Trump, you stand at history’s crossroads. Your legacy could be a generation safeguarded or another century lost to preventable tragedy. Our children’s future is in your hands.
Repeal Section 704. Restore the spectrum to science, the Constitution to the people, and the future to our children.
America’s children deserve real protection—now.
