"For the second year in a row, US President Donald Trump has proposed significant cuts to the budgets of major US science agencies…[The plan] includes a ban on using federal funds for subscriptions and publishing fees for some academic journals…Some of the steepest cuts would be made to the National Science Foundation (#NSF) and the Environmental Protection Agency (#EPA): the budgets of both would fall more than 50% in 2027 compared to their current levels…The budget for the US National Institutes of Health [#NIH] would drop 13%…The budget would increase funding for…the military, which would receive US $1.5 trillion, a 44% increase."

@petersuber Why do we need science when we have AI? xd

American scientists are already remembering that their grandfather was German, French, or Polish and are applying for citizenship in those countries. If Trump continues, if Trump continues, the rest will start remembering that their grandfather came from Europe in the 18th century.
