Subject: Trump to Stop Awarding, Funding Science Grants
Because science is woke, I guess.
Staff members at the US National Science Foundation (NSF) were told on 30 April to “stop awarding all funding actions until further notice,” according to an email seen by Nature.
The policy prevents the NSF, one of the world’s biggest supporters of basic research, from awarding new research grants and from supplying allotted funds for existing grants, such as those that receive yearly increments of money.
Just two weeks ago the NSF terminated roughly 1,040 grants that would have awarded US$739 million to researchers and their institutions studying a wide range of topics, including preparing for the next pandemic.
The Trump Cult is willing to destroy America's leadership in scientific research in exchange for seeing the people they hate get hurt.
