We first learned that Kennedy wanted to shift research away from infectious diseases and vaccines and has said that the NIH should focus half of its budget on “preventive, alternative and holistic approaches to health," back in January from their reporting.

We learned how Musk's SpaceX was secretly allowing investments from China in March, and the IG probing whether Trump and DOGE were trying to obtain private taxpayer data back in April.
They reported on Trump's attempt to get the EPA staff to snitch on DEI workers, which failed, back in May.
That same month we also learned about Trump leaning on African countries to get business for Elon Musk.
