As President Donald J. Trump’s administration continues restoring order, transparency, and common sense across federal institutions, new allegations have emerged exposing the scale of abuse carried out for years by unchecked scientific bureaucracies, all funded by taxpayers.
In a revealing conversation with journalist Lara Logan, activist Justin Goodman—a leading voice for ethical science in the United States—shed light on the extreme and morally questionable experiments conducted in federally funded labs over the past decades, often with no oversight and little to no public awareness.
“People who were deported for doing horrible things to animals—things any civilized society would condemn—are no different than the scientists who were promoted and rewarded for doing the same things in government labs, all paid with our tax dollars,” Goodman said.
Among the most shocking examples, Goodman highlighted experiments involving cannibalism among kittens, mutilation of puppies, and live dissection of primates, conducted not only in U.S. labs, including the NIH headquarters, but also in labs funded in China, Iran, Russia, and other nations lacking ethical regulations.
Monkeys Chained and Tortured: The Kind of “Research” That Should Never Be Allowed
One of the most disturbing cases occurs at a long-standing NIH facility outside Washington, D.C., operating for nearly five decades. There, researchers conducted a series of fear experiments on monkeys.
The method: scientists intentionally damaged the part of the monkeys’ brains that controls fear and then chained them by the neck in cages, repeatedly exposing them to toy snakes and spiders, objects that naturally provoke terror in primates and humans alike.
Video footage reveals monkeys paralyzed with fear, cowering in the back corners of their cages, while staff can be heard laughing and mocking the animals.
“They called them ‘dancing monkeys.’ They laughed while the animals suffered. And this was all paid for with American taxpayer dollars,” Goodman said.
A New Era Under Donald J. Trump: Ending Waste, Restoring Ethics
This kind of abuse does not reflect the values of American science—or the values of the Trump administration. Since returning to the White House in 2025, President Trump has redirected federal science policy toward transparency, utility, and respect for life.
With leaders like John Ratcliffe at the CIA and Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence, the administration has launched a sweeping reform of the scientific apparatus, demanding ethical oversight, funding audits, and an end to taxpayer dollars being used for unnecessary, immoral, or ideologically driven research.
Goodman himself acknowledged this progress:
“Today we are seeing real political will to fix these past wrongs. President Trump is cleaning out institutions that used to operate in the dark. There is finally hope.”
Media Silence and Progressive Complicity
For years, these horrors were ignored by progressive media outlets and politicians who insisted that “science justifies everything,” no matter how brutal or unnecessary. While everyday Americans struggled to support their families, billions of dollars were sent to labs—many overseas—with no transparency or moral standards.
The worst part? Many of those responsible were rewarded, protected, and even celebrated under Democrat administrations. But today, under Trump, that’s changed. Science is respected, but no longer idolized or exempt from accountability.
“They told us it was for the greater good. What we saw was cruelty, waste, and ideological corruption. Now, with Trump back, these dark corners of government are being exposed,” said Goodman.
Conclusion: The People Demand Ethics—Trump Delivers
Justin Goodman’s conversation with Lara Logan doesn’t just expose a moral crisis—it confirms that America is regaining control of its institutions.
Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, the government is restoring the idea that science must serve the people, not exist above them. There will be no more secret labs, no more unchecked abuse, and no more hiding behind the veil of «research.»
The United States deserves a scientific community that answers to the people, respects life, and delivers results grounded in ethics. Thanks to the work of advocates like Goodman—and the leadership of a president committed to truth—that transformation is now underway.
