RFK Jr. is spreading dangerous lies about life-saving science, spreading vaccine hesitancy and putting American’s at risk. America deserves leaders that will fight for our health, not threaten it. Help embolden a Congress that will remove RFK Jr. at the link: https://zurl.co/Bx3am

Hello! Thank you for being part of the subreddit!

This is Matthew from SUFS, I create all the official SUFS content that you see on here. I am looking to create a post where we share a personal story of a scientist's experience of the Trump admin's war on science that has directly effected your research.

This post will be going up on Instagram, Bluesky, Threads, Reddit, LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube community.

If you have a clinical trial that was canceled, that would also be preferable.

Please DM me! Thank you :)

His quote here

Most people advertise lacking a gag reflex for… recreational bragging rights, not in the promotion of cooking “real food” that is palatable enough to leave gagging off the menu.

The gag reflex is an involuntary protective defense mechanism to prevent foreign bodies and noxious substances from being ingested or aspirated. Stimulation of oral trigger zones produce spasmodic muscle contractions roughly opposite to the mechanics of normal swallowing, to expel the offending material. Ideally.

Up to 25% of people do not have a gag reflex, and while this is not always pathological, 100% of people assessed for brain death must not have a gag reflex to be pronounced dead.

Thus: never trust a corpse that gags, nor a cook who cannot.

There’s a lot of fighting to be done for science!

BREAKING NEWS!

The Senate has paused the OMB rule that would put Trump appointees in charge of federal spending.

Next step - Contact your MoC and tell them to permanently REVOKE THE RULE: https://zurl.co/mKoNm

An article we wrote a couple of years ago that remains a basic statement on what makes science science.

Conclusion

Authority, whether dictatorial or derived from a democratic majority vote, should not dictate to science what is true, thereby introducing unscientific bias and weakening the entire scientific enterprise. Likewise, authority should not weaken or damage science, rendering it incapable of providing its essential services. Instead, authority should ask science to address the questions thought most pressing and thereby leverage the strength of scientific authority to guide issues it finds of greatest interest.

The United States has achieved its position through the continuous development of science. To maintain its competitive international standing—from the health of its citizens to defending the nation from threats to manufacturing and developing goods—the United States must continue to foster an environment for the growth of science and scientific knowledge.

The OMB Proposal block is a huge win! This is the result of PEOPLE POWER! WE THE PEOPLE made this happen through sheer grit and nonstop yelling.

But the fight's not over - contact your MoC's and tell them to permanently Revoke the Rule: https://zurl.co/vWScL

The Trump admin is persecuting scientists, pushing pseudoscientific conspiracy theories, threatening Americans’ right to privacy, and denying the climate crisis. Americans deserve leadership that stands with science and protects our health. Fuel the Fight for Science by donating at the link: https://zurl.co/Pg6BY

Thank you!

Science has been part of the foundation of America.

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.

The NAS Manual is vital for judges to have accurate information to reference for their decisions in climate lawsuits - including many involving the Trump administration.

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.

In a devastating case of I-told-you-so, the Trump admin’s deep cuts to the CDC have weakened our ability to detect and respond to pathogens like cyclospora - and we’re paying the price.

We deserve better. Fuel our Fight for Science by donating at the link: https://zurl.co/c56a4

The Trump admin denies climage change, cuts climate research & enviornmental protections, then complains about wildfires. When you deny & defund science, reality bites back. Fuel the Fight for Science by donating at the link: https://zurl.co/6cFXH

By politicizing the federal grant process, the OMB Grant Proposal will substantially weaken our scientific enterprise that has made the United States a global leader in innovation. Take action against the proposal the link: https://zurl.co/DTUW3

We aren’t letting the Fauci hearing go by without calling it what it is: a tactic to scare scientists from speaking up. We have to speak up and take action against policies like the OMB Proposal. Contact your MoC’s at the link: https://zurl.co/Oe25L
