Russell Vought claimed on CNN this weekend that NIH funding is corrupt.
As @juliametraux.bsky.social reported this February, his family has directly benefited from the NIH.

Texas GOP Rep. Giovanni Capriglione...the same man who rammed through a six‑week abortion ban...has been exposed: a 17‑year affair and allegedly paid for multiple abortions. These aren't leaders...they're hypocrites in power. If that doesn’t make you furious, you’re not awake.

At this point, we don't know if these are plainclothes, a gang, a paramilitary group, serial killers, etc.. As long as we don't know, and they don't identify themselves, we should treat them as foreign invaders. For all we know, they are a fifth column.
WE HAVE QUESTIONS…
This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they?
ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants.
How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered.
Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again.
Their inaction is deadly.
