The NIH has lost its scientific integrity. So we left
“We can no longer lend our credibility to an organization that has lost its integrity,” write four scientists and administrators who recently resigned from the NIH.

Incredible. The Trump-Vance admin just posted a video promoting their bombing of Venezuela.
…And it is set to the song “Fortunate Son” — which is explicitly about the rich and powerful starting wars under the flag of hollow patriotism, and then making the rest of America pay the consequences.
