On Monday, September 22, 2025, President Trump and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced that the FDA would be issuing warnings to doctors about acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy, claiming it “can be associated with a very increased risk of autism.”
Trump stated: “I want to say it like it is: Don’t take Tylenol. Don’t take it. Fight like hell not to take it.”
This announcement followed reports in early September that Kennedy was planning to release information linking Tylenol use during pregnancy to autism in a forthcoming HHS report.
Representative Rosa DeLauro issued a statement attacking President Trump and RFK Jr. for warning pregnant women about possible risks of Tylenol, calling it “dangerous Tylenol misinformation.”
But how is it misinformation to warn women that a particular headache remedy might not be safe during pregnancy? Even if it turns out Tylenol is fine, a warning will not cause negative health impacts.
Her letter read: “The claim from President Trump and Secretary Kennedy is baseless. Scientists and doctors agree that Tylenol, or acetaminophen, is one of few safe pain relievers available to women during their pregnancy. President Trump and Secretary Kennedy’s claim is misinformation and it should not be taken seriously, as it could lead to women taking dangerous alternatives.”
This is the same tired COVID-era language: “scientists and doctors agree.” Sure, some scientists and doctors do, but others disagree.
And in typical liberal fashion, DeLauro leaps several steps ahead to imagine that if women stop taking Tylenol, they’ll immediately replace it with something dangerous. Wouldn’t they simply choose the next most recommended, safest alternative?
But in the liberal worldview, the same one that insists women and minorities don’t know how to get an ID to vote, pregnant women will apparently swap Tylenol for kerosene or road tar instead of just using the second-best painkiller.
Meanwhile, in the real world, insane liberal women are demonstrating their Trump Derangement Syndrome (which also extends to RFK Jr., Elon Musk, Charlie Kirk, and to a lesser extent Joe Rogan) by posting social media videos, particularly on TikTok, of themselves defiantly chugging Tylenol during pregnancy.
One viral TikTok showed a pregnant woman holding a Tylenol bottle with the caption: “Here’s me, a PREGNANT woman, taking TYLENOL.”
A fertility doctor, Dr. Michelle Vu, even posted a TikTok of herself taking Tylenol, saying, “My baby won’t have autism.” Another account featured text over the video: “Me popping Tylenol while pregnant, ’cause wtf is the government gonna do about it.”
Many women said they refuse to take medical advice from Trump, pointing out that he is not a doctor.
Which is ironic, because no U.S. president has ever been a doctor, and yet pregnant women have always taken health advice from previous administrations, the Secretary of Health, or the NIH.
They also lined up for the COVID vaccine, which was pushed by President Biden and Kamala Harris, while at the same time calling hydroxychloroquine a conspiracy theory, despite the fact that it was being prescribed all over the world for COVID.
Mainstream media claims that medical professionals and public officials have rallied to defend Tylenol . However, once again, these are only doctors who support Tylenol. There don’t seem to be any interviews in mainstream outlets with doctors who oppose it.
Much of the coverage consists of quotes from doctors and researchers saying Tylenol has never been linked to pregnancy complications, but all they are really confirming is that, until RFK Jr., Tylenol was recommended.
No one is disputing that fact. Instead, RFK Jr. is now introducing new information into the scientific discourse. However, since 2020, you’re not really allowed to do that.
Some of the women refusing to heed the warning, claim it’s “because they believe in science.” The irony is that they apparently don’t believe in scientific debate.
One of the best quotes featured in mainstream media was from Dr. Nicole Saphier, who warned women not to “weaponize pregnancy for a political point.” Is the doctor suggesting that women are getting pregnant out of spite? Her warning makes no sense, yet it has been repeatedly cited by liberal media as proof that Trump and RFK Jr. are wrong.
Of course, as was the case during COVID, there are legitimate researchers who have raised concerns about acetaminophen use during pregnancy. Ann Bauer is the most prominent researcher cited by the Trump administration.
She’s an epidemiologist at the University of Massachusetts Lowell and co-authored a review of 46 studies published in Environmental Health, which found a “strong and consistent association” between prenatal acetaminophen use and neurodevelopmental disorders.
Bauer found that “27 of them included significant links between prenatal acetaminophen use, compared to nine that found no significant link and four that found negative associations or protective effects.”
Her research suggested that “the higher the quality of the study, the stronger the link.” A meta-analysis from August 2025 looking at 46 studies concluded there was “strong evidence of an association” between taking acetaminophen during pregnancy and autism development, though the authors cautioned their paper could only show associations, not causation.
Liberals and Democrats are pointing to people like Dr. Christine Ladd-Acosta from Johns Hopkins, who said, “Some studies have shown no association. Some have shown a positive association. Some have shown negative associations.” This statement is true.
However, other studies have found there was a correlation. Why is one side automatically dismissed, not even mentioned, while the other is simply assumed to be true without any critical thought or even reading the new studies?
We now live in a world where suggesting that pregnant women should be careful about what medicines they take is considered “dangerous misinformation.” Do you remember when they said that pregnant women not only should, but had to, take the COVID shot regardless of whether they wanted to or not? It is literally a post-truth world.
