NIH annual budget is 45 billion
Comment from : @march4025

Advocates for NIH say that cures for diseases will be blocked by decreased funding The sad fact is that the most significant scientific observation in 90 of all biomedical publications is not reproducible How many cures are actually being developed by these dishonest and/or incompetent NIH funded investigators? The answer is next to ZERO The public is being totally gaslighted!brbrNIH and USAID funding supported the development of COVID-19 in China! How many people worldwide died due to this genetically engineered virus? NIH is a wasteful and dangerous institution It desperately needs to be reformed! Fauci should be in jail!

As with all left leaning news There is far more left out of this story, you know like real details The message is to fault Trump not question their questionable tactics

I pay 💰 my taxes to support medical 🏥 research 🔬 ! 😡 🤬 stop attacking science and research ! Lives are at risk ! Stake !
Comment from : @solidorsharp3091

So in other words government should fund research for pharmaceuticals and big pharma should rake in the profits This is why liberals have zero clue how the economy works In essence taxpayers are funding all this research to be fed toxic drugs for every illness they have

Trump is a monster to be honest He and elon musk
Comment from : @sadenb

It can feel crippling sometimes to operate out of the confinements of a system When it works against working-class people I almost cried listening to some of the things, like if I didn't have faith in the Lord it would be too much for me honestly it is still too much to me the Lord has carrying me They already constantly tell me was medically necessary and postpone my physical therapy-I have a lot of credit card debt because I was using that to pay for groceries and stuff like I just be like damn And it's weird to me because people want to be fake and play like it's advantageous situation for the majority of people when it's like you have to be privy and know how to find certain scholarships and grants Like all the people that are benefiting wouldn't have been hurt the same way as all those that are bearing the blunt of these funding cuts I know how it feels to try and still not understand like I applied to over 100 scholarships with my entrepreneurial ideas, which is hard enough for me to do because anybody will still a good idea is something about creativity in the soul That's something that money can't replicate a person can have money but they might not have creativity so if you don't have money and have creativity you will get sucked dry so I don't appreciate basically writing all these papers to try to apply for these grants and scholarships and everybody's talking about how what Trump did is the best thing he could have did for black Americans and stuff it's insane And they did me dirty too they cut off my food stamps the beginning of December like when I was reaching out to them about it I was like isn't that kind of the worst time to cut somebody's food stamps off is right before Christmas? Like they never watched the the Ghost of Christmas past

Trump is intimidated by intelligent people with PhD 's, MS degrees, Fulbright scholars, keen intellect and wants to punish them with his insecurities to toss his weight aroundthe guy, Trumpler, is a schizophrenic, pathological, imbecile of epic proportions! He admires Adolf Hitler, Goebbles, Himler and Goering as well as Putin and Xi!!!! The colossally sad thing is that 60 of Americans have been dumbed down and support this scum bag Trump!!!!

Cut deep, the American people have spoken, must pay for tax cuts for the wealthy
Comment from : @Michael_The_Lone_Wolf

Don't need much money to get Americans on life saving hormones But wealthy colleges will not be getting their pay outs Looks like their vacations to Europe and Switzerland are off
Comment from : @Susieq26754

I'm a 12th grad Am i missing something here? Grants for doing the research is NOT being cut It is the office staff support outside the research It is the actual money of the blood sucking leeches who will have to trim down their numbers Maybe they should look at salary cuts starting at he top How many grant writers do you need? Do they do an actual 40 hrs a week job all year long? Just saying there is always ways of saving money
Comment from : @SteveFoster-n8b

Yes i applied a week ago i got reviewed and i was messaged i got lucky to be part
Comment from : @PeaceStephanie-d4y

the cutting of administrative cost to 15 is the cost sharing of other funding agencies NIH gives too much indirect cost to researchers!
Comment from : @frankw731

At least half the public is too stupid to understand how anything works They respond with pure emotion to whoever says what they want to hear Things are going to get a lot worse in this country before they get better
Comment from : @BrJieh-dc4rs

With the stroke of a pen Trump has handed over the leadership of biomedical research to China, and the lowbrow podunks couldn’t care less
Comment from : @hr9336

You Are in the same boat as all government agencies now Its hard to tell the good and the bad US taxpayers need to know that your efforts are worth the money Much of government spending now is graft, corruption or spent pursuing Woke ideology The government agencies are out of control and need a real house cleaning Why are spending all this money when the National Debt is so high?brbrYou need to justify to the Trump Administration your value Unfortunately, Democrat administrations misused HIA to fund gain of function research in Wuhan China They used China, because it was outlawed in the US and Europe This research lead directly to Covid 19 Wuhan increased its lethality and transmissibility in humans, before they, accidentally or on purpose, released Covid 19 to the world
Comment from : @UrbanBard1

We need a overhaul of All of our government entities This should have been done years ago Not now Unfortunately programs are going to get cut out that aren't deemed necessary And the ones that are necessary They'll probably look over and reinstate those programs and reissue grants but thanks for the Democrats and years of both parties abuse on these systems The American people are taxed to death Can't afford anything and we need to regain everything for the American people right now Not programs and entities
Comment from : @andrewtruffin4781

They should had ask there workers to get donations for there efforts The funding should had not be relay on federal government The country need to cut something so we could survive

Evil animal research Has any of this research ever found a cure anything ?
Comment from : @djm9276

How much of this money went to the Wuhan institute of virology before 2020?
Comment from : @Le_Dislike_Button

I have many sick people in my family, so I KNOW BEYOND A SHADOW OF DOUBT that medical research is not a waste of money I've seen first-hand how our medicine has been improving as years pass So how come you people keep arguing that this medical funding slash is the right thing to do???
Comment from : @hyowonkim-f7r

Why pay more money for research when the cures have been hidden by Big Pharma? The cures are there Now, now make them public
Comment from : @mollyclifford5777

We curred Cancer in 1977 Big Parma took the pill off the market Ivermectin, cures cancer Plus 2 other drugs I would call up Dr Monteinger in France about an AIDS cure He discovered HIV So that takes care of at least 2 departments brbrI do believe our books should be opened to the public, bc not everything is medical is considered "MEDICAL"
Comment from : @thequestion3960

The universities are going to have to do actual work instead of apply for phony grants

Earthquake? NIH might actually have less taxpayer dollars to develop "gain of function" vaccines

Comment from : @AndrewWerner-p1l

Stop misleading Americans They are not going to shut down justified spending what have they suggested shutting down that made sense
Comment from : @cobaltusa

Hes not going to shut down justified spending Only the absurd things Like an LGBTQ comic book in a foreign country or pottery classes And research to see cocaine makes hamsters horny or something like that What's the problem?
Comment from : @cobaltusa

Like the cocaine fueled hamster fights?? You people are sick I’m so tired of all these lies You’ve been working on cancer for like 100 years and we still don’t know what we’re doing It’s all a money grab
Comment from : @christinelivebird

Trump destoys the whole country in 30 days Game over for democray, humanity, climate protection, good relationship to the rest of the world, lower prices, seperation of powers, help for the poor Rest in peace, USA Therefore you have the most stupid president of the world and the crazy friend of the Hitler salute, Musk and news friends like Putin, Kim Jong-Un and the criminal Netanjahu The whole world is laughing about you, like four years before but now Trump destroys what he could not destroy in his first four years
Comment from : @denharrow

It would appear that any "hand" that is presently found reaching [itself] into the public purse has some chance of getting [itself] lopped off
Comment from : @nycedyce

Slash their entire budget They should have considered the consequences before they funded the creation of Covid-19 in Wuhan To give them more funding will just create the next dangerous germ
