In Donald Trump's second term, he has adopted a pronounced aggressiveness towards truth, marked by the propagation of misinformation and significant cuts to health research funding. This development follows his first term, characterized by 'alternative facts' and an ongoing struggle against factual reporting, realizing the influence of social media on information dissemination. The administration's actions, including attempts to erase crucial scientific data, come alongside a $4 billion reduction in National Institutes of Health grants that support vital cancer and health research, raising concerns over science and truth in governance.
In his second term, Trump has manifested an outright hostility to truth, demonstrated through misinformation and aggressive cuts to critical health research funding.
The ascendancy of the far right, embodied by Trump’s presidency, has intensified the battle over telling the truth in an age dominated by social media's quick reactions.
