Are We Witnessing the Fall of "Fiat Science"? A Conversation with Kevin McKernan

What is "fiat science"? It's what you get when the state creates a lot of money out of thin air, then hands out bunches of it to scientific establishments, where decisions are made not on the basis of market forces, but on the basis of political ones.
I speak with genetics expert and founder and CSO of Medicinal Genomics, Kevin McKernan, about why fiat science is a problem, the utter failure of the regulatory state, what needs to change – and what is starting to change.
If you're still saying "peer-reviewed" like it's a good thing, you might want to take a listen.
Our previous conversations about the problems with medical research and peer review in particular, are here and here.
Kevin's Substack is here.
...and the post where he discusses Rebekah Barnett's FOIA reporting, and showcases Dr. Paul Offit's lies, is here.
The UNITAID/Andrew Hill story can be found here and here.
You can find Kevin on Twitter, here.
Kevin's NCI (National Citizens Inquiry) Testimony is here.
And you can learn about CannMed here.
