Graphs showing 25 years of budgets for the National Institute of Health, NASA, and the NSF. In all cases, the proposed budget for next year is far, far below any year of the previous quarter century.
There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

I still check in on the bad place & post there occasionally. I’m used to people shitting on docs, but these MAHA appts have brought out the worst of humanity. I honestly don’t think it’s safe for physicians over there. These are people who find your address and report you to the medical board

FYA she did DM me, then tried to get the conversation moved to Whatsapp, at which point I stopped communicating with her.
Is the account impersonating a real person?
Who is "we"? Just some concerned users?

I suspected something was off. Are you part of a group within Blue sky that investigates this? Her account still appears active here.
