what even is the fucking point

As I wrote: "This administration would rather accuse scientists of being neo-Marxists, try to ruin projects and careers, damage local economies, disrupt the science discovery pipeline, and hurt American leadership compared to global competitors (including China)." Unfortunately, holds up well.

Yes, the top-line budget numbers are (nearly) flat. I can assure you that does not mean that the state of science is sound. That is already a low bar for success. And, if last year is a guide, we should not expect that federal agencies will use $$$-s as intended: www.statnews.com/2025/12/18/n...
