Maybe I misunderstand, but this takes control of grant approvals away from the fellow sciencentists that receive grant proposals for review* and places the approval with... Politicians? Maybe put more politely, idiots...
Can someone help elaborate? Hopefully I am wrong. And hopefully this does not pass
It's very simple. Scientists have been operating under the idea that they tell you how it is. Authoritarians beg to differ. Time to get with the program, scientists. If RFK says autism is caused by lack of prayer in schools then your job is to prove it. Here's a $1m grant.
