The article discusses protests by former federal workers against the Trump administration's policies, particularly the significant funding cuts to the NIH that endanger cancer research. These cuts align with the conservative agenda outlined in Project 2025's 'Mandate for Leadership', which seeks to dismantle the NIH's funding model. Legal challenges have arisen from medical institutions and states to halt these cuts, reflecting widespread concern about the implications for biomedical science. Despite Trump's prior claims of ignorance regarding Project 2025, his supporters continue to shape policies that disrupt the national health system.
The rapid adoption of Project 2025’s objectives shows that supporters have long prepared to disrupt the national health system, contradicting Trump's claims of ignorance.
Universities are facing sweeping cuts to NIH grants, which could destroy ongoing and future biomedical science, prompting legal challenges from institutions and states.
