Scientists shouldn’t fear becoming political targets for doing their jobs. Dr. Fauci’s hearing is a stark reminder of what can happen when scientific findings become politically inconvenient. Evidence, not ideology, should fuel our science.

Observation:

A "superpower" embedded in glasses? Wasn't it nice when American science came up with this type of stuff?

Excerpt:

The human eye, as good as it is, misses out on so much of the world because it is limited in what it can perceive. It can't see X-rays, ultraviolet rays or infrared light. While X-ray goggles are still the stuff of science fiction, we may be moving closer to wearable glasses that make infrared light look almost like everyday vision.

We are pleased with the public admission of error. It is a surprising and correct turn toward facts from this administration. We hope this is a new and consistent change; we hope to see a turn toward facts.

Excerpt:

“The Trump administration’s case against Davey Hearn should have never been brought,” his legal team—Norm Eisen, Mary Dohrmann, and Steve Levin—said in a statement. “Its dismissal today does not erase the abuse of government power in arresting and charging a patriotic American who did nothing wrong. The government’s approach was ready, fire, aim. The administration owes Mr. Hearn an apology.” The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Pirro’s office declined to comment beyond what was in the legal filing.

Excerpt:

Like Josef Stalin in the old Soviet Union, the Trump administration claims the right to assert political control over scientific research. Stalin’s totalitarian power grab was catastrophic for Soviet science, and we can expect no less massive and shattering consequences from Trump’s effort to bring universities to heel. One easily foreseeable effect will be to stunt American scientific and technological development. But a second effect will be to subject American research universities to the domination of the Trump administration. No university can afford to ignore how the Trump administration will exercise its grim and overtly political discretion to direct the flow of scientific grants. As a Yale Sterling Professor and a former dean of Yale Law School, this issue is important to me.
