Daniel Boguslaw has good news and bad news — Colossal Biosciences has a new investor for de-extinctifying mammoths, thylacines, and other beasties. Unfortunately it’s the CIA. The other good news is Colossal might be onto something, piquing the CIA’s interest. The bad news remains — it’s the CIA. Read on for more speculation and the obligatory ‘skeptic’ naysayer. By the by, did you know the CIA has a podcast? The Langley Files hopes to sanitize the CIA’s track record but The CIA’s New Podcast Is Part Of A Long History of PR Stunts and, dare I say, propaganda. Catch up on that history with Ruqaiyah Zarook, along with many experts debunking ridiculous claims by NPR declaring it’s “extremely rare” for the CIA to seek attention like this. And if you did believe that, we have some prime swampland in New Jersey for sale. Cheap. (CS)
