Folks, this is outrageous --

A shocking whistleblower report is revealing the true extent of this administration’s efforts to bury science on behalf of President Trump and those connected to him.

Dr. Rick Bright, who was leading the development of a coronavirus vaccine as the former director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, says he repeatedly sounded the alarm about the need to prepare for the pandemic as early as January.

Not only did top officials ignore Dr. Bright’s warnings -- they removed him from his position for pushing back on efforts to fund unproven treatments promoted by those with political connections to the administration.

It should terrify all of us that our coronavirus response is being driven by political bias and cronyism, rather than the facts. We must speak out -- sign on to my urgent grassroots petition to condemn Trump and his administration’s attacks on science!

Lives are at stake. Trump’s mismanagement and blatant corruption cannot go unchecked.
