Administration fires entire National Science Board

MGT22

I’ve lost count of the list of “you shouldn’t be able to do that” things that have utterly destroyed the scientific infrastructure. Not enough people realize how this is generational damage

I read yesterday the board was readying a report stating China was surpassing the USA in science. Our government is actively destroying our country’s future.

Where do they think *all of modern society* came from? NOT scientists?????

Trump & Co. are destroying science, knowledge, and our future.

Currently on an NSF grant that goes until August. Guess I’ll be TAing until I finish my dissertation…

While this absolutely has Vought's fingerprints on it, I do wish to remind everyone who listens that Trump has repeatedly tried to slash research funding, including in his first term. The man is against the development of science and technology.

Barney Grubbs3

heard last month that they had a new space but it didn’t have internet or tables & chairs so most folks were working from home at least until June, which seemed like an ominous bit of news in combination with everything else.

This is a traitorous assault on the United States by ignorant Evangelical Republicans who reject modern science.

Dick Horn2

This Administration is extremely anti science! Ignorance abounds in this administration.

Valjurai2

That is the goal... destroy anything and everything that had come anywhere close to making America decent, much less great.

One of his more horrifying moves recently… And that is a long list. We are moving into the dark ages. Going back to fossil fuels for our energy; purging public health experts; returning to class warfare with pseudo royalty at the top and the serfs at the bottom - and that would include most of us.

US ceding leadership in research and innovation to other nations. Thankfully other nations are up to the challenge.

Was this in Project 2025 also?

Please someone at the NSF release the latest draft!!!

Trump outdoes himself every day. This should not be mathematically possible. He’s 600% worse.

The greedy republican party has been trying to dumb down the citizens of this country for decades and they have gleefully found the low IQ moron to do major damage. This is truly sickening!

Christine Moretti5

He’s just the most vile and disgusting person on the face of the earth.

ZiggyStardust3

Turns out he doesn’t need DOGE. He’s been destroying good things his entire life! A scourge on the earth he is.

Who is this young man? Someone tell him he needs to talk to his peers and get their asses out in the streets. I hear talk amongst this demo that protests are all OLD people & uncool for that reason. Grow the fuck up & stop prioritizing COOL bc ain’t nothing cool about the Christian Taliban Fascists.

The dumbing down of America continues 😡

Science is currently keeping that walking cadaver alive. You'd think he would be more pro-science. We're going backwards.

Sierra Delta4

What is his rationale/justification for this?

Dennis Buchholz3

What better way to squash that story than a dinner he has never gone to with a shooting where no one got shot 🤔

fraziberry.bsky.social4

It makes sense if you understand he’s liquidating the country.

jaylen0729.bsky.social4

SO WE ARE NEITHER safe nor healthy.

Clifford3

We have to look at China and other nations to guide us into the future. America is stuck in reverse.

He has dementia, he doesn't know what he is doing. He needs to be removed from office. Nobody who does this could possibly be trying to make the country a better place. Instead he'll probably replace them with 24 crocks like RFK.

Maybe safe to say DJT is a career SADIST who HATES America & gets off on & paid by inflicting suffering & death! Americans tried to hold him accountable: no healthcare, food, jobs, housing; no disaster relief! Blow fisherman out the water; kidnap or kill foreign heads of state; get their resources!

Zohran forgot three very important words...... "ALL FOR ISRAEL".

Bicerin2

Correct me if I’m wrong please, but I think Mamdani can’t run for POTUS? That is such a pity if it is the case. He sounds like - no, he IS the kind of person the US desperately needs for the job.

Bert in Colorado2

If Medicare is such a drain on the government since the 1940’s, then why is there so much there for military and republican discretionary spending and all of Trumps personal vanity projects?

Blue Rover5

Heritage Foundation is hard at work dismantling the government to benefit the oligarchs and create a Christo-fascist government. Meanwhile, people are barking at ballrooms.

I CANNOT WAIT for some accountability. It's desperately needed. The Trump "administration" is destroying everything they are not looting and getting away with it.
