Project 2025 Episode 6: The War on Science - Who Profits When Science Loses?

What happens when corporate profits and religious ideology become more important than scientific evidence? In Episode 6 of our Project 2025 Investigation, Fiercely Independent examines the Heritage Foundation's proposed attack on science, including its plan to break up and downsize NOAA, privatize weather forecasting, and eliminate federal climate change research. But why target science? Follow the money. With billions of dollars at stake in environmental regulations, industries that profit from fossil fuels have enormous financial incentives to weaken pollution controls. Meanwhile, homeowners face rising insurance premiums, growing climate-related risks, and the consequences of decisions that prioritize corporate savings over environmental protections. We also examine the Heritage Foundation's religious principles and ask a fundamental question: What happens when religious convictions begin shaping government policy at the expense of scientific evidence? Nearly 400 years ago, Galileo was punished for defending scientific conclusions that challenged religious authority. Today, the conflict between evidence, ideology, and institutional power continues. Because suppressing science doesn't change reality. And when science loses, we all lose.
