Controlling the Checkbook: Science Under Attack

In this episode of The Overlap, host Joshua exposes a major 2026 regulatory power grab buried inside a 412-page Washington document: Docket OMB-2026-0034! 🚨 By converting federal grant guidance into binding law, political appointees could veto scientific research and cancel active studies based on political loyalty rather than evidence. 🤯 Connecting modern bureaucracy to the tragic history of Soviet botany, the episode reveals how your boredom is weaponized to dismantle scientific autonomy. 🦠🌾🔍📈💸 https://fof.foundation [email protected]
