We have incredibly unqualified politicians attacking grant-funded research that they don’t understand.
While that’s terrible in its own right, these same folks are proving to be not just unqualified but also incapable of doing even the most cursory of fact checking.

This amateur hour bullshit is absurd.
Cases in point:
- Ted Cruz attacking a study that used POC because he thought it meant people of color. It means point of care. The study was about medical biosensors.
- Ted Cruz attacking a study that used the words victim and trauma. Apparently studying how to stop gunshot victims’ bleeding is woke?

If you like having nice things like phones, reasonably good medical care, and living in a developed nation, you might have some cause for alarm.
This is not how we remain a developed nation.
It’s embarrassing and scary as hell.
