🔥💰 BREAKING: Freezer Wars: $15 Billion NIH Budget Thaw! 💰🔥 Listen up, fam! 👀 In last week’s episode of “As Congress Turns,” we had a wild saga featuring $15 billion locked up tighter than your grandma's secret cookie recipe! 🍪💀 Thanks to Russell Vought, OMB's head honcho and apparently a fan of dramatic cliffhangers, the NIH’s life-saving biomedical research funds were frozen like a Netflix account with no password. ❄️😂 Here's the tea: while Congress was out here trying to save lives and cure diseases, Vought was playing Scrooge McDuck with the budget! 🦆💰 *“My office is basically a budget vault now,”* he was allegedly heard saying, probably while sipping some overpriced kombucha. NOT BASED, my dude. But wait! Plot twist! The funds weren't just left to gather dust like that old gym membership you never used! They got a glorious THAW this Tuesday because what’s a power struggle without a little cash flow drama, amirite? 🤯💸 So buckle up, stonks investors! 🚀 2025 is gonna be a wild ride! I predict the NIH will announce a revolutionary jellybean-flavored vaccine next week—mark my words! 🍬💊 #MemeTheSystem #BudgetBros Unite!
