In response to Trump's cuts to science the EU is investing over $500M to recruit researchers & scientists from the U.S

Researchers-scientists know the Fed will not fund any project--a long 4 years--while Trump is in office.--and they, like the rest of us need to support and families and pursue their choose fields.
Smart move by the EU

Maybe some group is keeping track of how many we will lose??
We might have a better idea of how many in a month or so.


And so it begins—the exodus of our brightest minds from the country. Does Trump or MAGA not see what’s unfolding? We’re losing the trade war, we’re paying higher prices, and soon, even more people will lose their jobs. Trump is destroying this country.

He thinks you inherit it or steal it.
Research scares him because he is intimidated by real inteligence, doesn't understand that everyone else isn't faking it, and he knows he can't trick educated people into voting for him.

On some level he's in it for the long haul--plans to be dictator and immortal.
On another level he's in it for the short run. All the ramifications of the research (and the planet) he is destroying will happen after he is dead.

Across the board destroying everything that makes America great.

Art, science, education, healthcare, medicine, culture, society, arts, humanities, the economy, rule of law, constitution.

He and the 1% will be just fine.

As for the fate of his cult and all the rest of us, trump doesn’t give a rat’s ass if we live or die or if our children learn to read past 3rd grade. There will be jobs for them, and at an early age — just ask Sarah Huckabee Sanders. And FOX will tell them exactly who to blame.

To these kind of authoritarians knowledge is "woke". Like 1984, knowledge is weakness,
ignorance is strength.

Until he's successful, he'll settle for a daily blue light special on aisle X.
