Good I hope they take all of them who have been devastated by cuts to research. Cancer research is being halted among other extremely important issues!
Good. Do not stop here. Go for the talents from innovation industries that so far had good reasons to work and live in America that are no longer valid.
Good. I hope EU takes everything that was good about the US to knock the US off it's pedestal and put it in it's place and that the US never regains standing of any significance on the world stage. The tRump legacy will continue to be that if extreme ego & consequential failure.
As they should. When the fascists make science and research impossible in the US those who want continue their work must look elsewhere. Europe is happy to welcome them.
De door extreem-rechts aangevoerde coalitie in Nederland heeft daar het inzicht niet voor, laat staan de politieke wil. Dan moeten we eerst Wilders en z'n NSB eruit zetten.
All non-fascists are welcome but getting a work visa or permanent residence is not easy, unless you have special circumstances... though at this rate Americans may soon be classified as political refugees and qualify for asylum.
Though worth noting (and looking into) some European countries have legacy citizenship programs for various historical reasons that you may qualify for depending on where your family was from. https://visaguide.world/europe/eu-citizenship-ancestry/
Thank you for info- I’ve tried to get dual citizenship with UK (my mother- British, my father - American & I’m American) but have been told if my father was British, I could get it, not with a British mother!! I’ve also tried Canada but can’t get cleared because I’m retired. I plan to try again.
If Britain doesn't work out for you, consider others. Language barrier is not an issue in many European countries (like the Netherlands, all of Scandinavia, etc).
Well at least they will have a safe place to go and be free to do what they love. If they stay here they will be gagged, jobless, their 401k will be in the toilet, - should they retire, Social security will be unattainable.

Make Europe Great Again!
During the 1930’s, scientists fled in the other direction, chased by Nazis.
History repeating itself …
I’ll have a look at the Netherlands, etc.
Thanks again-
