前卫生部长小罗伯特·肯尼迪的高级顾问卡利·米恩斯指责前白宫幕僚长苏西·怀尔斯试图将有争议的健康政策的责任推给特朗普总统，米恩斯称这些政策受到企业游说者的影响。
Calley Means, a former top adviser to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., accused former White House chief of staff Susie Wiles of trying to pin the blame on President Trump for controversial health policies he claims were influenced by corporate lobbyists.
米恩斯是“让美国再次健康”（MAHA）运动的关键架构师，上个月辞去政府职务。他声称，怀尔斯和知名游说者布莱恩·巴拉德试图通过将特朗普描绘为决策的推动者，来为自己辩护，以躲避批评。米恩斯称这些决策受到企业游说者的影响。
Means, a key architect of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement who resigned from the administration last month, alleged that Wiles and prominent lobbyist Brian Ballard were attempting to shield themselves from criticism by portraying Trump as the driving force behind decisions that Means claims were influenced by corporate lobbyists.
“我希望白宫的每个人都知道，苏西正在执行一项系统性策略，把特朗普总统推下车，”米恩斯周一在社交平台X上发布的一篇长文中写道。
“I want everyone in the White House to know that Susie is executing a systematic strategy to throw President Trump under the bus,” Means wrote in a lengthy post on the social platform X on Monday.
在最近接受播客主持人乔·罗根和CBS新闻《面对国家》节目的采访时，米恩斯指责包括前副幕僚长理查德·沃尔特斯和副幕僚长詹姆斯·布莱尔在内的高级助手在制定政策时迎合企业利益。
In recent interviews with podcaster Joe Rogan and CBS News’s “Face the Nation,” Means accused top aides, including former deputy chief of staff Richard Walters and deputy chief of staff James Blair of catering to corporate interests when shaping policy.
巴拉德周一罕见地发表声明，驳斥了这些说法，并否认其公司在采访后游说椭圆形办公室。
Ballard, in a rare statement released Monday, refuted the claims and denied their firm’s involvement in lobbying the Oval Office following the interviews.
声明写道：“我通常不回应关于我们公司的评论。今天我破例，因为卡利·米恩斯对巴拉德合伙人公司提出了虚假的具体指控，事实应予纠正。”
“I do not ordinarily respond to commentary about our firm,” the statement reads. “I am making an exception today because Calley Means has made specific claims about Ballard Partners that are false, and the record should be corrected.”
他继续表示：“巴拉德合伙人公司的任何人都未就政府关于草甘膦的行政令与苏西·怀尔斯或西翼的任何人，包括她的副幕僚长，进行游说或沟通。”
He continued, “No one at Ballard Partners lobbied or communicated with Susie Wiles or anyone in the West Wing, including her Deputy Chiefs of Staff, regarding the Administration’s executive order on glyphosate.”
米恩斯通过一份联邦游说披露文件驳斥了巴拉德的否认，该文件显示，此前雇佣过怀尔斯的巴拉德合伙人公司，曾代表拜耳公司就农业问题游说白宫。拜耳公司是广受诉讼困扰的除草剂“农达”的生产商。
Means refuted Ballard’s denial by pointing to a federal lobbying disclosure showing that Ballard Partners, the firm that previously employed Wiles, reported lobbying the White House on agricultural issues on behalf of Bayer, the company behind the widely litigated weedkiller Roundup.
特朗普二月签署一项行政令，旨在提升有争议的除草剂草甘膦的产量，草甘膦是农达的关键成分。该行政令将草甘膦描述为“本国农业生产力和农村经济的基石”，令MAHA运动的支持者愤怒。
Trump signed an executive order in February seeking to boost the production of the controversial herbicide glyphosate, a key ingredient used in Roundup. The order, which describes glyphosate as “a cornerstone of this Nation’s agricultural productivity and rural economy,” angered supporters of the MAHA movement.
该备案涵盖2026年头三个月，列出布莱恩·巴拉德为该账户的游说人员之一，并显示该公司在此期间从拜耳处收到9万美元。
The filing, covering the first three months of 2026, lists Brian Ballard among lobbyists who worked on the account and shows the firm received $90,000 from Bayer during that period.
“布莱恩·巴拉德书面表示，他没有游说苏西或白宫工作人员关于草甘膦的事。既然巴拉德的披露显示，他在行政令发布的那个季度亲自游说白宫，那他要么在撒谎，要么就是把特朗普总统推到火坑里，”米恩斯写道。
“Brian Ballard said in writing he didn’t lobby Susie or White House staff on glyphosate. Since Ballard’s disclosure below said he personally lobbied the White House in the quarter of the EO’s release, he is either lying or throwing President Trump under the bus,” Means wrote.
