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."

That's not fair the people back then where trying to innovative and grow, nothing like whatever the us is doing.

Once US is back in stone ages they will innovate. For the second term it is merely the dark ages.

Well I hope they use the correct sacred oils when trying to make the railgun on the USS stupid name work. Do you think they will pray to the machine or to the Donald?

This administration would fuck up and pray to The Deciever.

Well to be fair that would track with their current apparent values.
