Misleading. The $800M cut was to USAID, not directly to medical research. Johns Hopkins lost funding for global health programs, not cancer research. This was part of a broader Trump administration policy to cut foreign aid, not Musk personally targeting medical cures https://hub.jhu.edu/2025/03/14/johns-hopkins-usaid-funding-cuts-global-health/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1900911417005666341
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
