Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has announced that the Department of Defense (DOD) will investigate multimillion-dollar grants funded under the Biden administration for horrifying experiments involving the implantation of aborted human fetal tissue into lab animals.This probe follows a bombshell investigation by the White Coat Waste Project (WCW), shared exclusively with investigative journalist Laura Loomer, which exposed ongoing taxpayer-funded atrocities.EXCLUSIVEA new @WhiteCoatWaste WCW investigation shared exclusively with me has revealed that the @DeptofWar is still funding millions of dollars of grants handed out by the Biden administration for sick, Frankenstein-style experiments that implant pieces of aborted human… pic.twitter.com/nG8G7iixk6— Laura Loomer (@LauraLoomer) October 8, 2025The WCW report, released earlier this week, details how the Pentagon has been pouring millions of dollars into these “Frankenstein-style” experiments, with some grants set to remain active until at least August 2026 unless immediate action is taken.These practices involve implanting various body parts from aborted human fetuses, such as scalps, fingers, skin, organs, bone marrow, thymus, liver, and intestines, into mice, rats, and even monkeys. The investigation highlights the ethical nightmare of using aborted fetal tissue in animal testing, funded by American taxpayers without their knowledge or consent.One particularly disturbing example uncovered by WCW involves the creation of “BLT mice,” where researchers implant bone marrow, thymus, and liver from aborted human fetuses into rodents to study human immune responses. In another grotesque procedure, human fetal intestines were grafted directly onto the intestines of live mice. Perhaps the most harrowing detail comes from experiments at the University of Texas, where fingers from 18-week-old aborted fetuses were implanted onto the backs of 5-day-old mice. After four weeks, these implanted fingers were deliberately fractured and left untreated on the animals for an additional two weeks, all in the name of “scientific research.”The institutions implicated in these Biden-era grants include prestigious universities such as the University of Texas, Wistar Institute, University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA), Rutgers University, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison.Loomer, who broke the story exclusively, reported that Secretary Hegseth personally responded to her inquiries about the investigation.BREAKING:Secretary of War @PeteHegseth has seen my report documenting the new @WhiteCoatWaste investigation below regarding shocking animal abuse experiments authorized by @JoeBiden that are still happening at the Department of War.Hegseth tells me that he is going to be… https://t.co/Zd3IcaeV4D— Laura Loomer (@LauraLoomer) October 8, 2025In a statement to Loomer, Hegseth confirmed that he has reviewed the report and is “looking into” the DOD grants issued under Biden for these sick experiments.Loomer wrote:Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has seen my report documenting the new White Coat Waste investigation below regarding shocking animal abuse experiments authorized by Joe Biden that are still happening at the Department of War.Hegseth tells me that he is going to be “looking into” these Department of War grants issued by Biden for sick, Frankenstein-style experiments that implant pieces of aborted human fetuses into lab animals.Loomer added that she is hopeful Hegseth will end the practice, which would align with the Trump administration’s previous pledges to cut federal funding for research using fetal tissue from abortions.This development follows a major victory for WCW last month when the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced it would not renew 17 grants for similar fetal tissue experiments, 16 of which involved animals, after WCW’s relentless exposure.WCW’s efforts have gained significant traction in Congress, including testimony delivered earlier this year before the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability on these very taxpayer-funded fetal tissue practices. The organization has united a broad coalition of partners and lawmakers since its 2019 exposé, which prompted inquiries into the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and built momentum against these unethical experiments.Secretary Hegseth’s track record gives reason for optimism. Earlier in his tenure, he canceled cruel dog and cat testing programs at the DOD after exposures by WCW.This scandal underscores the stark contrast between the Biden administration’s secretive funding of these horrors and the Trump team’s commitment to transparency, ethics, and ending wasteful government spending.The post Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth Vows to Investigate Biden-Era Pentagon Funding for Gruesome Animal Testing Using Aborted Fetal Tissue appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
