„Until this new policy is in place, research meeting the definition of dangerous gain-of-function research is to be paused“

It’s stunning to me that the New York Times did not put the story on the bloodbath at the NIH, CDC, and FDA on its front page this morning.
1. Another Friday afternoon massacre of sorts:

New ruling from Judge Cooper (D.D.C.): DOGE is likely subject to the Freedom of Information Act and is ordered to start producing documents responsive to CREW’s FOIA request “as soon as practicable.”
Hey there Montana! We have TWO Stand Up for Science events on March 7th at noon! One is located in Helena at the state Capitol, and the other is at Montana State University in Bozeman. If you can’t make these, do a walkout! Info ⬇️
This is called fraudulent accounting, and it’s what Trump was found criminally guilty of by a New York court.
