They always use "they're doing [thing] to mice!" to try and devalue the importance of the research being done. Sure, spraying rats with bobcat urine and trying to cure mice with HIV sounds weird but you can't do the shit they're doing to mice to people.
Trump claimed the Biden administration spent $8 million "making mice transgender." The White House tried to back up this number with records of funding for research into cancer, asthma, and HIV, some of which used *transgenic* (genetically modified) mice.
