And about the Uncanny similarity paper, do they realize the FCS in SARS-CoV-2 that was the main evidence of GoF research, is actually within the insert 4 from HIV-1 GAG protein, and is not a furine cleavage site at all?

He's in the movie Thank you Dr. Fauci where they openly suggest the 2014 Ebola epidemics was a lab leak. Isn't it embarrassing enough for Rutgers University?

Today, my NIH colleagues and I did something scary but really important. We spoke up about egregious harms we are seeing happen to research participants and public health through thoughtless and politicized policies at NIH. 🧵1/3

It is historic. Federal workers rarely dissent so publicly like this. Please stand behind NIH employees now— they are fighting to save American medical research from Trump and DOGE and MAGA extremists.

Harvard rejects Trump administration's demands for deep changes The university refused to make changes it said would "dictate what private universities can teach" and "whom they can admit and hire," among other things.

"No government — regardless of which party is in power — should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue"

From a source at NIH:

“Right now NIH’s ability to buy things is dead. Nearly all people with the power to make an order — purchasing people — have been removed.
The NIH hospital can’t buy medicines, the labs can’t buy petri dishes. X-Ray machine breaks? Too bad.
Everything is stopped”

Inside the Collapse at NIH Administration officials pressured NIH to avoid clear advice from the agency’s own lawyers to restart grant funding now.

I talked to NIH officials, current and former, about what's been happening inside the agency since the Trump administration shut down their grantmaking pipeline in January. Their stories showed just how willing our new leaders are to break the law: www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

This thread shows how close US is now getting to a constitutional crisis - as opposed to constitutional drama.

Once the executive freely disregards court orders without sanction then US pretty much has a constitutional crisis.

Things are coming to a head.
