I am not a doomer; we can win in 2026 and 2028 and throw the bums out. But I suspect the damage to state capacity, to science/research/evaluation, to US credibility and standing is generational. I hope I am wrong but a lot of us will be picking up the pieces for the rest of our working lives.

For the record, trillions were lost, panic gripped Wall Street., Main Street and the globe and all we got were phone calls. And we’re left with high tariffs that are still forecast to reduce growth and boost inflation. Doesn’t seem much like victory to me.

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.
