Anon. Reminds Us: It Is NOT NIH Or HHS Or USAID Making These Cuts... It Is Trump/Musk/Kennedy/Rubio.


Too many MSM stories are imprecise, in this time of chaos -- in the headlines they run under, particularly.

I get that longer headlines are disfavored -- but accuracy is also a. . . virtue, folks. Anon. has reminded us (and Nature.com, too) that career scientists are not directing these deplorable cuts. The political hacks are. And we should all be complaining to our Congress-critters about that. Congress can end this madness more swiftly than the courts can. Here's Anon.'s cogent take -- on this article -- one which bears a deceptive headline at least at the moment:

. . .I wish people would amend comments/titles. NIH isn’t canceling. Trump/DOGE/Kennedy and all their cronies are doing it. Staff are being told to execute the cuts or risk losing jobs. . . .


Now you know. Onward -- resolutely.
