psst, NIH, NSF, FDA, EPA...head up!
This is why bargaining with this vile liar is useless. It doesn’t matter if he agrees to a spending bill if he can just cut what he wants later. That’s why you defund things.

I hope Voss speaks up.

Either a liar or a moron, ‘Dr. Jay’ needs to go. NOW. Before the NIH completely collapses.
My two cents on the many misleading moments in Bhattacharya's testimony today before the Senate HELP Committee.
From claiming that there's no war on science, to claiming there weren't grant cancelations, to using loaded right-wing rhetoric, it wasn't great
