Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is aiming to cut 20,000 jobs at agencies like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Scientists overseeing cancer research, vaccine and drug approvals, public health and tobacco regulations are also among 10,000 already laid off. Public health experts say the mass firings could have catastrophic impacts for the U.S. and the world.
"Some of the top public health experts in the world just lost their jobs," said former CDC director Dr. Tom Frieden.

Seems like the tarrifs finally are helping increase exports... But its brain power that is being exported, for nothing in return. The art of the deal 💪👌
some well-placed investments could really set us up for success if we capture this talent and use them.

They’re gonna figure out what everything is a-boot, ay?
