I-270, Exit 1

If we are going back, can we at least go back to when we vaccinated our kids, drank pasteurized milk, and inspected our food?

Oh fuck all the way off, Bubonic Bobby.

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

The @nihvigils.bsky.social is an accomplishment, 75+ consecutive weeks and counting. Daily for 700 days. Inspirational. Go Georgia.

He's lying, but the world will say this about Americans in a few years, after MAGA destroys science, closes universities, and burns books.

Good news for melanoma patients! The first ever mRNA vaccine to target cancer is in our near future. ~15 yrs ago, patients w/advanced melanoma survived for a few months. A successful Phase 3 clinical trial showed that intismeran reduced the risk of recurrence by 42%. 🧪 archive.today/pp6mX

For those complaining that he doesn't pass, you haven't been around kids' soccer. They don't start passing until they're 8 or 9 when their brains develop more and they get a better idea of team concepts. There's a reason that games at this age look like a swarm of bees chasing the ball.

Isn't there already a Journal of Irreproducible Results?

A highly regarded physician-scientist recommended by NIH Director to lead the agency’s mental health institute is no longer in the running. Instead, RFK Jr. favors a researcher who studies treating mental illness with diet—an approach advocated by some in MAHA. www.science.org/content/arti...

The plain fact of it is thus: the Trump administration wants to re-segregate higher education. It is a racist project straight-up-no-chaser. Accommodating any of this puts you on the wrong side of history, makes you a collaborator in this project. ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

The 5-year cancer survival rate is up to 70% SIDS deaths have decreased by over 50% 89% decline in tornado deaths All thanks to federal investment in science and OUR tax dollars at work!

Dr. Sethi never held an NIH grant, finished her residency in 2017, and hasn't had a significant leadership position. In other words, an early stage investigator may direct an institute. NIMH staff and stakeholders deserve a more experienced leader. www.science.org/content/arti...

I TOLD YOU WE AREN'T STOPPING YET...Thank you to @pallone.house.gov @degette.house.gov and @repyvetteclarke.bsky.social for pushing for answers on how this "study" was funded by CDC in the first place. WE ARE FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE! democrats-energycommerce.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

For those writing on the dissonance between science and federal policy, note that several recent studies show promise for mRNA vaccines in cancer, yet RFK Jr and Bhattacharya redirected $500M away from this area. How do we get the best treatments if NIH kills the research? Spoiler alert: we don't.

This is messed up. ICE is a public health issue. We wrote about this with Save HHS: www.savehhs.org While the mission of our coalition (hence the title) is to save HHS, what we do does not have an impact if patients cannot safely interact with the medical system.

Adding my name to this, too. I am another NIH scientist stating with my name that RFK Jr. is corrupt and destroying NIH. He is overseeing discriminatory censorship at NIH. He allowed unethical study terminations that put research participants at risk. He has installed political actors.

And I am another NIH scientist. RFK Jr is corrupt and destroying NIH.

Anna Culbertson Former NIH Scientific program specialist and I agree RFK Jr. is destroying the NIH. Happy to talk with anyone who wants to challenge me on that. Thank you for calling attention to this @markhisted.org

I’m a Program Officer and scientist at NIH, writing in my own personal capacity, and RFK Jr. is harming the NIH. I look with alarm at the harms he has done to our sister agencies, FDA and CDC, and to public health in general.

The health of 342 million Americans shouldn’t depend on one person’s beliefs. I’m an NIH scientist, clinician, and autism specialist. RFK is dismantling NIH. If he wanted to build trust, he’d reimburse clinicians for time to answer patients’ questions, not create a CPT code for vaccine injury.

@markhisted.org We are not anonymous- and our concerns are published openly. See Bethesda Declaration, 2025 and 2026. We are speaking up. Courage is contagious and we are stronger together. Joanna Szczepanik, PhD

My name is Paul Grothaus. I’m a retired NIH scientist and I’m not anonymous. RFK Jr. and Jayanta Bhattacharya are destroying NIH and the US scientific infrastructure with devastating impacts on public health and Science.

If she won't vote for people named after prophets, she won't vote for a lot of White dudes. But it's not that, is it?

I truly admire Muslim public servants in the United States who choose to serve knowing that they will be relentlessly subject to this bigotry.

A federal labor agency flagged so many problems in a recent arbitration filing that it suggested the Department of Health and Human Services used artificial intelligence to draft its brief.

I will add my name to this, too. Another NIH scientist, not anonymous, declaring that RFK, jr. is destroying NIH. Don’t want to take my & @markhisted.org’s word for it? 39 current/recent NIHers put their name to this just a few months ago: www.27unihted.org/bethesda-dec...

This week, discussions of election defense, stories of NIH staff becoming Americans, and lot of kids on the mic.

What an INCREDIBLE No Kings NIH Vigils. For eighteen months current NIH staff have been speaking outside of the agency every week in their personal capacities. New faces come to the microphone at every event, because courage is just that contagious.

Read this for the tragic farce that is Jayanta Bhattacharya's NIH. Columbia looks pretty pathetic too. Best wishes @keltonminor.bsky.social, and know that many career civil servants within NIH are on your side.
