Even if there are examples, they will be political examples and not scientific ones. Of course, they'd conveniently conflate the two to mislead the less observant among us.
Your observational powers have somehow missed the reality that politicians customarily lean on science-derived "science" to lend credibility to their actions.
The public, broadly, cannot tell the difference between science and "science." Any scientist who doesn't perform their work with this in mind is a politician's pawn, whether they want to be or not.
