Urgent Petition for Taxpayer

Taxpayer, this NIH scandal is even worse than you think. 

First: Nicole Kleinstreuer—an Acting NIH Deputy Director—told NPR that animal testing is “very important” and “often scientifically justified.” 

Then: NIH renewed Harvard’s monkey tests and Fauci’s beagle torture—under Kleinstreuer and Director Bhattacharya’s leadership. 

Now: Even legacy animal rights groups are applauding these NIH bureaucrats!

Taxpayer, Kleinstreuer speaks for NIH. Does she speak for you? 

Tell RFK: Hold Kleinstreuer Accountable >> 
Kleinstreuer is wrong. Send Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. a message here to demand accountability.  

A new exposé just dropped in the Gateway Pundit article below—and some of the names may surprise you. 

Stop the Money. Stop the Madness!

SHOCK SCANDAL: Fauci’s NIH Lapdog Desperately Justifies Barbaric Animal Tests as PETA Comes to Her DEFENSE
Originally published by The Gateway Pundit | Written by Cassandra MacDonald 

NIH Acting Deputy Director Nicole Kleinstreuer, a Barack Obama-era staffer and noted fangirl of Dr. Anthony Fauci, has indirectly responded to the backlash from a recent Gateway Pundit report by defending the continued funding of animal torture tests, with shocking support from PETA!

The Gateway Pundit report, “EXCLUSIVE: NIH Renews Grants for Harvard Monkey Lab, Fauci’s Beagle and Primate Tests,” sparked significant attention after White Coat Waste (WCW), a watchdog organization aimed at ending taxpayer-funded animal experimentation, amplified the story on X.

The article, citing WCW, revealed that despite the Department of Veterans Affairs and Navy under President Donald Trump working to end inhumane animal testing, the National Institutes of Health, led by Director Jay Bhattacharya, has reauthorized millions in funding for contentious experiments. These include THC testing on monkeys at Harvard, tick-bite studies on beagle puppies, and Anthony Fauci’s infamous “Monkey Island” project.

The article quoted Kleinstreuer saying in a recent NPR interview that the NIH has “no intention of just phasing out animal studies overnight.”

Her comments stand in contrast with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pledging a “dramatic reduction in animal testing at NIH” in April.

In response to criticism prompted by our article, Kleinstreuer posted on X, claiming her position was “widely and willfully misconstrued” but reiterated that animal tests must continue until better scientific alternatives are available.

“I have dedicated my career to advancing human-relevant science to replace animal testing, and continue to do so. @NIHDirector_Jay is an ally and a leader in this space and I am lucky to work for him!” Kleinstreuer wrote. “The 1st half, which has been widely and willfully misconstrued, is that we cannot phase out animal tests overnight. We must invest in science to replace them and improve biomedical research and public health protection. Without better science, animal tests unfortunately continue.”

The backlash also drew unexpected support from PETA and the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), who came to her defense, even as she reaffirmed her stance on continuing animal testing funding, putting her at odds with the positions of President Trump and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Apparently, PETA and PCRM agree with Nicole that “animal studies are still very important and often scientifically justified” and that “we cannot phase out animal tests overnight?” Someone should probably inform their donors.

Kleinstreuer’s X account indicates that she has been interacting positively with PETA since 2018. Retweets on her account also reveal her deep admiration for Dr. Fauci, perhaps the most infamous animal tormentor of all time.

The U.S. Navy’s recent ban on cat and dog testing, which credited RFK Jr. and WCW, and the Trump administration’s prior closures of an FDA monkey nicotine lab and a major cat lab, have made it very clear that this administration is prioritizing reform and moving away from cruelty.

It appears that holdovers from past administrations have other ideas.

Additionally, the Trump-haters at PETA keep making the media rounds trying to claim victory for WCW wins.

WCW remains the only animal advocacy organization to shut down any government primate lab in nearly a decade, any government dog testing labs in almost 20 years, and any government cat lab in the last 40 years.

Responding to the controversy, WCW President Anthony Bellotti told The Gateway Pundit:

President Trump was right to propose a 40% budget cut to clean out waste and abuse at the broken and bloated NIH. Secretary Kennedy has also long opposed Fauci’s beagle labs—spending first uncovered by White Coat Waste. RFK also just helped ban the Navy’s dog and cat testing after a White Coat Waste investigation and has promised a “drastic reduction” in NIH animal experiments. But NIH bureaucrats are now defying both RFK and Trump—defending and doubling down on Fauci-era animal labs. Nicole Kleinstreuer, an NIH Deputy Director, just told NPR that animal testing is “very important and scientifically justified”—Fauci’s exact position.

While other Trump-aligned agencies are canceling, phasing out, or banning animal tests altogether, NIH has renewed cocaine injections in beagles, re-upped tick infestations on puppies, continues to kill cats in Fauci’s COVID labs, and still tortures monkeys with toy snakes and spiders inside Dr. Bhattacharya’s headquarters. Under Kleinstreuer and Bhattacharya, NIH has even spent millions to start brand-new dog labs. Taxpayers shouldn’t spend another dime developing “alternatives” for transgender mice, beagle cocaine tests, or any other NIH boondoggles. More big government spending won’t save lab animals. Only one thing will: Stop the money. Stop the madness!

The Gateway Pundit has reached out to NIH, HHS, and Kleinstreuer for comment. We will update this article if one is provided, or if she subtweets us again.
