It is fine for the NIH to cut completely the research grants if the government that was elected by the people decides that the country has other priorities.
What is not fine is having a censorship committee, that has obviously no idea about the field, to be deciding based on their vibes whether a proposal should be funded.
I find it insane that in 2025, in the USA, Medical researchers have to scrub their science manuscripts for potentially offending keywords.
