Hans van ZijstYuck, science. Gets in the way of "alternative facts" and other populist hocum.
It could “eviscerate investments in fundamental research and in the training of the next generation of scientists and engineers for our nation,” Stassun said.
No shit, Sherlock. After having alienated each and every ally possible, the orange rapist is now going to push the US back into the days before the Age of Enlightenment, where people will have to believe what their king tells them.
I hope that all those USians who still believe that Agent Orange will be slowed down or even halted in november, realize how much time it will cost to repair all the damage he's done so far.

National Science Board members fired by Trump administration
The Trump administration has fired members of an independent board that oversees the National Science Foundation. Members of the National Science Board received an email on Friday sent from the Presidential Personnel Office stating that their position was terminated. The National Science Board was created in 1950 to advise the president and Congress on science and engineering policy, approve major funding awards and guide NSF’s future. Scientists and advocates are concerned by the decision, saying it could further damage the U.S.' scientific engine. The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
