Pence on RFK Jr: “I do have concerns that we have a secretary at HHS who has a lifetime career of undermining public confidence in vaccines. We should have the opposite. And I hope that we continue to hear voices around the country that speak into this moment for the sake of our

Trump terminated $1.8B in science funding in 40 days. A loss of ~$4.6B in future economic activity. Means a higher fraction of new discoveries will be overseas. We'll be buying our future drugs from other countries...and, oh - they'll have tariffs on them. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…
