β€˜This Is Not How We Do Science, Ever’ The Trump administration is manipulating government-sponsored research to get the answers it wants.

The Trump administration is "willing to not just slash and burn research that challenges their political ideology but to replace it with shoddy studies designed to support their goals, under the guise of scientific legitimacy," @katherinejwu.com writes.

Hi, hello. In order to grasp the significance of Trump crowning himself a King, you have to understand that he is literally carrying out a plan crafted by Curtis Yarvin, a right wing extremist, to overthrow democracy and replace it with dictatorial rule by a monarch-CEO.

Trump Administration Has Begun a War on Science, Researchers Say Nearly 2,000 scientists urged that Congress restore funding to federal agencies decimated by recent cuts.

I’m so proud of my fellow National Academy of Medicine members for writing this statement, and so honored by the opportunity to endorse it. A government that wages war on science is not a government fit to lead.
