Former senior official reveals accusations against Trump associate: 'Capable of harming him'

Callie Means, former advisor to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., attacked Susie Wiles and claimed he was warned that she might physically harm him. Means accused her of obstructing Trump administration health initiatives due to lobbying ties. Wiles and Ballard Partners denied the allegations.

Callie Means, the former senior advisor to U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., sharply attacked former White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and claimed he was warned that she might physically harm him. Means, who resigned last month, posted on X that 'people who know Susie well warned me that she has the ability to cause physical harm.' At the heart of the conflict is the 'Make America Healthy Again' (MAHA) initiative promoted by Kennedy. Means alleges that Wiles and the lobbying firm Ballard Partners worked to block health initiatives, including promoting an executive order defining glyphosate-based herbicides as essential to national security. A spokesperson for Wiles dismissed the claims as 'outrageous, defamatory, and false.' Ballard Partners also denied attempting to influence the White House. Means also directed accusations at James Blair, a former White House official, who claimed he received threats from Means. Robert Malone noted that Amaryllis Fox Kennedy, Kennedy's daughter-in-law, is employed as a lobbyist at the same Ballard Partners firm.
