    This doesn’t belong in this community, does it?

    Guess Trump is OK with China being the dominant scientific force in the world though.

    If you don’t get rid of that government soon (the whole thing, the democrats are complicit), you won’t get rid of them anymore.

    I don’t understand. Congress is supposed to decide how we spend money and how much we tax. Why is the president doing those things?

      Congress the rubberstamp org ?
      Why do we even need that,
      to sell positions has favour to the king ?
      obviously nobody believes in that parasitic institution
      Why do the Russians keep the Duma ?
      To shove the edicts of the king
      down the throat of the population ? The broken remains of the “country” need to face it
      FEDUSA is dead

    Welp, goodbye all non-corporate RND in almost all scientific development.

    Talk about a short-sighted admin.

      It’s easy for old people to be short-sighted. They don’t have to take responsibility for fucking things up in the long term, because they’ll be dead.

      Stable governments should elect people that have a reason to plan long term.

    I know people whose grants have been put on hold and these people don’t even know if they have health insurance anymore, since grant money pays for that too. This is wild.

    Somewhere in there, Ars should have noted that this does not mean literally ALL grants, but all federal grants as defined in 2 CFR 200.1 (which isn’t to say they won’t change that definition).
