There are no banned words. There are, however, pronounceable combinations of letters that are not aligned with agency priorities.
I need to write to NIH Director Bhattacharya and apologize...
Through the awesome new "agency priorities", NIH has eliminated residential segregation, disadvantage, poverty, and racism...
Checks notes: Oh, I'm sorry. Those are just terms eliminated to get grants funded this fiscal year.

How many US citizens have to be shot and killed by ICE before it is abolished? How many must die before these murderers stand trial for their murders?

Correct. I am The Penguin. Bobby is The Joker. Together we will bring plague after plague upon Gotham City. Not even Batman can stop us.

King ABBA of Sweden,
Considering your country decided not give me the Nobel Prize in Medicine, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of medicine, although it will always be something that I claim to practice, but now can think about what is good and proper for RFK Jr., and Brownstone.

We can prevent any future pandemic with nutritious food, herd immunity, and better locks on lab doors.
Just because the US is pretending that viruses only come from labs & we shouldn't bother with prevention otherwise, H5N1 is still here & is still a huge pandemic threat.
Join me & my expert colleagues Mar 3-4 in DC as we figure out what to do about it.

I converted from Hinduism because that religion has many deities - a word that starts with "DEI."
According to Podcast Jay, he can silence anyone or anything as long as he calls it “DEI.”
It’s his magic censorship phrase.

You want specifics on research reproducibility @jocelynkaiser.bsky.social ?
For every grant we fund, we will also fund a statistically significant number of other grants to reproduce the data from the first grant. #p=0

"Dr. Jay Bhattacharya Brings Humility to the NIH"

This brings to mind a quote attributed to Winston Churchill although it was not original to him.
"He is a modest man who has a great deal to be modest about."

As we ring in 2026, I’m resolving to keep NIH’s focus on gold-standard research that will improve the health of the American public. [Edited to cut everything after "keep" and add the word "podcasting"]
Wishing you all a very happy and healthy New Year! 🎉

No clinical trial, randomized or otherwise, has conclusively shown that intentionally withholding the Hepatitis B vaccine from newborns in Guinea Bissau has negative health outcomes within the five-year study window. The question is still open. #GoldStandard
Oh you think we need placebo-controlled, double-blinded RCTs for every vaccine test?
Okay tell you what. I’ll entertain that sincerely if you can name even *one* other kind of clinical trial design, and explain cogently why it’s inappropriate.

Gym bro Matt and I will do a sit up next week. #NewYearsResolution
Jay & Matt hope you watch their incredible pushup form instead of the $500M they gave themselves based on work that is definitively “dangerous gain-of-function” (DGOF) research. They also terminated grants doing similar work for being DGOF.

I *am* apolitical. I've said it to Charlie Kirk, I've said it to Steve Bannon, and I've said it to Glenn Beck. How many more times do I have to say it to a MAGA podcaster before you believe me?
This is such a weird quote because I don’t know how you view anything that the NIH director does as not being political given that he is a political appointee.
Once again JPAI revealing himself as the most clueless motherfucker in the 94305 zip code.
If not for Jay, things would get political, he explains.
