Russell Vought claimed on CNN this weekend that NIH funding is corrupt.

As @juliametraux.bsky.social reported this February, his family has directly benefited from the NIH.

“You are meant to feel powerless. That is what a strongman wants: to make you feel as if nothing can stop the takeover of your country.”

But we are not helpless — unless we act that way, as too many of us are sadly doing.
