I read the NYT headline wrong. Instead of "testifies," I thought it said "RFK Jr *terrifies* before congress."

Dear God,
Originally, I was going to try easing into this with some small talk, but then I realized with you being God n' all, well… that's probably not the best idea.

There is only one (1) office (not even an institute) at the NIH dedicated to women’s health research. That office is now being dismantled, with only a bland landing page remaining on their website. This is a five-alarm fire!
