I still don't understand why anyone is listening to the executive branch. They don't have authority over everything. Just ignore them and tell them to go away.
Cannot up vote this enough. They have as much power as we collectively give them. They have proven this repeatedly by A) ignoring court orders B) In turn getting repeatedly bitch slapped by the judiciary overturning their orders and actions.
Blind compliance is the only way they succeed. Refusing to comply and fighting back is the only way the rest of us survive.
This one is very clear. The NSF was created directly by an act of Congress. It is not part if the regular agency structure. It was in response to the Sputnik moment, where we were concerned about our ability to remain strategically competitive in areas of science and engineering. The executive branch can kindly fuck right off.
Exactly, the executive branch has been stepping over boundaries left and right, and people just keep letting them.
Get rid of the smart people because only dumb ones vote republikkkan
If you’re an american scientist, please consider moving to Canada. We value knowledge here, and we need your help. When things completely fall apart in the USA, your shithead president will have to start a war to distract from his evil and incompetence. Any expertise you bring (and deny the fascists) will be a great help!
Why support science when you can support Elon building is compound for all his baby mommies.
