It's like a parody, but it's deadly serious; the Commerce Department (which includes Census, NOAA, and others) has outright deleted "don't alter or suppress scientific findings for political reasons" from its scientific integrity rules. Seriously.
Protecting against "inappropriate influence" is no longer a "hallmark" of scientific integrity

The Commerce Department updated its policy for promoting a "culture of scientific integrity" in January 2025, days before Trump's second inauguration.

A new Trump administration order bans the Census Bureau and the Bureau of Economic Analysis from using statistical “noise,” or data for fuzzing survey results, to protect people’s privacy in their statistics.

The 2025 version included bans on attempts to shape or interfere in data collection, statistical analysis and other scientific activities "against well-accepted scientific methods and theories or without scientific justification."

The department's policy, the 2025 version said, involves ensuring scientific findings at its agencies "are not suppressed, delayed, or altered for political purposes and are not subjected to inappropriate influence," as well as making sure there's "independent review of facilities, methodologies, and other scientific activities as appropriate to ensure scientific integrity."

That language is missing, however, in the Trump administration's revision of the policy, according to an NPR analysis of text posted on the Commerce Department's website.

And while the revision adopts a definition for "scientific integrity" that is similar to the previous version, it no longer says that "protection from inappropriate influence" is among the "hallmarks of scientific integrity."

"For Many Americans, Covid Is Still a Chronic, Disabling Disease. These Scientists Are Working Tirelessly to Bring Them Relief" #LongCOVID Archive link: archive.md/aajiu Source: www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/m...
An article from Smithsonian Magazine titled "For Many Americans, Covid Is Still a Chronic, Disabling Disease. These Scientists Are Working Tirelessly to Bring Them Relief" by Mike Mariani.
The subtitle explains that Long Covid saps the strength and vitality of patients who have little recourse to fight it, noting that a team of specialists—including an afflicted researcher working mostly from her bed—is actively looking for answers.
Below the text, a photograph taken by Rachel Bujalski and Kate Warren features a close-up of a laboratory setting. A pair of hands wearing white sterile gloves is carefully pouring liquid from a small laboratory vial into a clear plastic test tube. The test tube sits securely inside a bright orange, multi-tiered plastic test tube rack positioned on a metallic lab workspace.
