Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), who has been exposing the amount of money the government wastes on cruel animal experiments for quite some time, got right down to business on the subject on Friday during a House Oversight subcommittee hearing called “Transgender Lab Rats and Poisoned Puppies: Oversight of Taxpayer Funded Animal Cruelty.” What she discussed wasn’t just disgusting — it sounded like something out of a horror movie.
“Last year, the White Coat Waste Project exposed more than $10 million in taxpayer funds that were spent creating transgender mice, rats and monkeys,” Mace said, adding. “These DEI grants funded painful and deadly transgender experiments that forced lab animals to undergo invasive surgeries and hormone therapies at universities across the country.”
…….Essentially, we’re cruelly experimenting with all this “gender-affirming care” stuff on animals to give doctors the okay to cruelly experiment on children, all in the name of “progress.” It literally sounds like something out of the Holocaust.
She went on to explain that this is a small part of a $20 billion plus a year issue that isn’t just barbaric but wasteful. Mace said that “90 percent of novel drugs that are successful in animal tests fail in human clinical trials” due to biological differences. She also says that new technology is available that could easily replace this type of experimentation but federal bureaucracy blocks the use of these advancements that could literally be saving lives.
Mace cites information from White Coat Waste, which is a wonderful organization. It describes itself as a “nonprofit, taxpayer watchdog uniting liberty-lovers and animal-lovers,” and over the years, it’s uncovered some of the most egregious ways the U.S. government is spending your money, from the fact that U.S. tax dollars were funding the Wuhan lab that led to the COVID-19 pandemic to shining a light on — and shutting down — Anthony Fauci’s cruel experimentations on beagle puppies. In fact, Mace and White Coast Waste brought live Beagles who survived Fauci’s house of horrors to the hearing to back up her point.
Back in January, White Coat Waste published a four-point plan laying out how the Donald Trump Administration and DOGE can easily end these cruel experiments, save millions of animals, and save billions of taxpayer dollars.
Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation Chairwoman Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) delivered opening remarks at a subcommittee hearing titled, “Transgender Lab Rats and Poisoned Puppies: Oversight of Taxpayer Funded Animal Cruelty.” In her opening statement, Subcommittee Chairwoman Mace highlighted how the Biden-Harris Administration spent millions of taxpayer dollars on cruel and unnecessary animal testing research. She continued by emphasizing that recently developed technological tools can more accurately model human biology and identify solutions that are more useful for human patients, but the federal bureaucracy has blocked novel advancements from being utilized. She closed by thanking the witnesses and looking forward to a robust conversation regarding wasteful government spending on animal cruelty.
The Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation held a hearing titled, “Transgender Lab Rats and Poisoned Puppies: Oversight of Taxpayer Funded Animal Cruelty.” Subcommittee members discussed how the federal government wastes millions of dollars on cruel and unnecessary animal research. Subcommittee members also discussed non-animal testing alternatives that more accurately model human biology and result in testing outcomes that are more useful for human patients.
Key Takeaways:
The federal government has wasted millions of taxpayer dollars on harmful animal research that prioritizes societal trends over scientific outcomes.
- Justin Goodman—Senior Vice President of the White Coat Waste Project—shed light on the exorbitant waste of American tax dollars on cruel animal research: “Many people don’t realize that the U.S. government is the single largest funder of animal testing in the country, and, in fact, the world. Based on government documents, we estimate that over $20 billion a year of taxpayers’ money is wasted on ineffective and inhumane tests on tens of millions of puppies, kittens and other animals in the U.S. and in hundreds of foreign laboratories. As we will discuss today, Congress and the public don’t have exact figures because oversight of taxpayer-funded animal testing is woefully inadequate.”
Animal testing is a cruel and outdated practice still used because it is preferred by established funding avenues. Researchers are realizing the limitations of animal-based studies and the practicality of innovative non-animal methods.
- Dr. Paul Locke—Professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health—highlighted the advancements currently underway which could eliminate the need for cruel animal testing and is more accurate for humans: “Scientific advancements have created multiple opportunities for us to develop and deploy more human centric techniques in toxicology and biomedical research and therefore call into question our current reliance on animal testing. Championing these non-animal methods is a win-win situation. It will allow us to not only to reduce the number of animals used, but also produce data that is more relevant to human health.”
Member Highlights: Subcommittee Chairwoman Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) discussed why the government is wasting millions in taxpayer dollars for many different types of experiments that are harmful and detrimental to animals.
Anthony Fauci is a despicable, depraved shitbag. His NIH spent thousands of dollars on Frankenstein operations, grafting scalps from aborted fetuses on rats and mice and conducting cruel experiments on dogs, monkeys, and children. He and HHS officials discussed how to enforce vaccines by exploiting viruses from China. Motivated by power and greed, Fauci funded the bio-weapon lab in Wuhan that genetically modified covid, and lied about it.
He belongs in prison.
