Call your Republican reps and tell them “I DIDN’T VOTE FOR CANCER!”

From the article.

The policy targets $9 billion in so-called indirect funds that the N.I.H. sends along with direct funds to support research into basic science and treatments for diseases ranging from cancer to Alzheimer’s to diabetes.

Lets study this. I have four concerns or lets call them missing details.

1 - The $9B is so called indirect funds. What this means to me is there is an open question whether we could be using indirect funding for NGO's doing some good work while also doing some bad work like was found at USAID. When you jump on me with "You don't know that", I will agree with you but adding "neither do you, you just prefer to not have the spending looked at all, whereas I would like to find out."

2 - The $9B indirect is sent along with direct funds. So there is an unknown amount of funding that will go to these programs even if the entire $9B is cancelled which is nt a given."

3 - If the same agency is sourcing the indirect and the direct funds, it is suspicious that they don't just hand it all out as direct. The unnecessary introduction of indirect is a way to mask the true intent of the expenditures such as the same LGBTQ non-sense we have seen. BTW, Biden ordered every department to aggressively promote and fund his LGBTQ agenda. And the bureaucracy dutifully followed orders as it should. So we should expect aevey department to show history of LGBTQ Spending. But now, we have a President who has issued new orders. And he is checking to make sure the departments are thorough in implementing the new policy.

4 - Restating the excerpt from above so you don't have to scroll up as I make my fourth and final pithy observation

The policy targets $9 billion in so-called indirect funds that the N.I.H. sends along with direct funds to support research into basic science and treatments for diseases ranging from cancer to Alzheimer’s to diabetes.

See that word "ranging" in there. It allows for funding of every other disease known to man. Yet the article is written as if the entire $9B is being cut and cut from just Cancer and Alzheimers. More shock value that way but misleading. Finally, there is history to consider, lets not forget that it was the NIH that funded Fauci for years as he used a third party to funnel US Taxpayer money into Gain of Function research, research that Obama rightly had banned.
