It’s a big data week for me and today’s post is more of a news information offering rather than a deeper analysis of a topic, which is my usual pattern. However, I discuss in some detail recent appointments to the US Health Administration, some of which were prominent during the early COVID years and received considerable promotion from so-called Left progressives. One of the leading characters in the attack on government restrictions is now Trump’s appointment to the major national health research funding agency and he has vowed to defund any institution that doesn’t follow the ‘freedom’ dictates of the authoritarian regime that Trump is running. I wonder how these progressives are viewing the fact they gave credence to a key Trump operative.
