I know I’m drastically changing gears and becoming less dogmatic with this post but we need to get back to being able to trust the EPA and the CDC and the FDA again. I think everyone who’s not insane and me all agree on that.

No idea what all those 3 letter acronyms stand for but I believe what you're saying about the republican party trying to mess with science to suit their own ends. But science should be independent of governments anyway, and apart from grants etc. coming form governments, scientific results from universities are just that: they are peer reviewed by an international community of scientists.
