I think maybe you're not understanding the point of science.

Science is science, whether you politicize it or not. The science only changes with new information comes in to alter the conclusions. It doesn't matter who backs the science, or who is using it for what purpose.
Science ceases to become science when the researchers are pressured to conclude a specific predetermined outcome, which is essentially politicization.
