Sick. Sick. Sick. >Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has unleashed another scathing edition of his annual Festivus Report, a tradition that lays bare the federal government’s misuse of taxpayer dollars. >This year, Paul’s report shines a glaring spotlight on a deeply unsettling aspect of government spending—barbaric experiments on cats, funded by none other than Anthony Fauci’s National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Department of Defense (DOD). >>In this year's #Festivus airing of grievances, Sen. Rand Paul features CAT-astrophic gov waste exposed by WCW 🧵 >>🦠$2M Fauci-funded COVID experiment on cats 🙀$10M to shove marbles up cats’ butts for constipation tests (DOD) 🤢$1.5M to spin cats for motion sickness tests (NIH) >According to the report, $1.5 million of taxpayer money has been funneled into barbaric experiments at the University of Pittsburgh. >“If you learned that your money is being used to electro-shock young kittens, torturing them for hours on end, and to the point that they vomit, would you believe it?” according to the report. >It continued, “Since 2019, $1,513,299 worth of taxpayer money has been going to these medieval-type experiments. This is not some distant, dystopian future; it’s happening right now at the University of Pittsburgh, courtesy of a grant from the NIH.” >The experiments, ostensibly designed to study motion sickness, involve the torture of young kittens. These defenseless animals, some as young as four months old, are subjected to horrific treatment, including: >>Electroshock therapy that causes uncontrollable vomiting. Spinning them on hydraulic tables to induce severe motion sickness. Brain mutilation, including drilling holes into their skulls and decerebrating them—leaving the kittens alive but completely devoid of cognitive function. >More from the report: . .
