Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., the ranking member of the Science Committee, said in a statement, "This is the latest stupid move made by a president who continues to harm science and American innovation. The NSB is apolitical. It advises the president on the future of NSF. It unfortunately is no surprise a president who has attacked NSF from day one would seek to destroy the board that helps guide the Foundation. Will the president fill the NSB with MAGA loyalists who won't stand up to him as he hands over our leadership in science to our adversaries? A real bozo the clown move."

But Kamala was going to support Israel or something...

Yes, and Trump gave no indication he would do anything different with regards to Israel

Someone should write a Dr Seuss style book about this circular debate on voting so people can move on and argue about more pertinent stuff.

If you don't move on and find it in yourself to be angry at the system as a whole then you're still going to be ranting about this in 20 years. It'll become a part of who you are.

The system catered to white suprrmacy and wealth, exactly as it was designed.

You can be angry at more than one thing.

Didn't she wear a suit covered in mustard ?

Yes, and Trump does too?

Whoa! whoa! whoa! Are you saying she should have a differentiating position on supporting genocidal countries to convince voters to vote for them?

Are you saying she should have a differentiating position

I'm saying when it's the same for either candidate, then it cannot be a deciding factor.

But it’s not the same for both sides when one merely supports the actual aggressors while the other also has a plan to drive the survivors out of their homeland to redevelop it for the Epstein class, to abuse their piwer to personally enrich themselves by the death and misery of millions of people and potentially of an entire culture

You strongly reminds me of Savonarola.
