The White House’s MAHA Gatekeeper
Joe Rogan and Donald Trump discussed ibogaine, a psychedelic drug, leading to an executive order on psychedelic therapies. Tensions arose between Rogan's allies and White House health adviser Dr. Heidi Overton, who revised the draft order, removing key provisions like a psychedelic-therapy czar and funding reforms, which prompted threats to withdraw from the signing ceremony.
