NEW: The N.I.H. will cut about $4 Billion from federal research grants that support cancer, virus and heart disease research.
#Project2025 called for the cuts to end subsidies to "leftist" university agendas.

Musk and Trump have no right to take it.
But in a sane world, science is science, it has no ideology.
These MAGAs are nuts
There will be a prorata reduction in research due to the loss of indirect funds with ~20% reduction in research.
Across the sector this equals a 30%+ drop in research
This would have to be the single most thoughtless intervention ever proposed in the history of American research endeavour
Second, putting 4 billion back in the system at 15% indirects still means less indirect dollars.
Project 2025 is returning us to the great times of *leeching & bloodletting* 🙄
Plague to follow...
"The N.I.H. spent about $35 billion in 2023 on about 50,000 competitive grants to about 300,000 researchers at 2,500 universities, medical schools and other research institutions nationwide."
So Project 2025 is going to make sure we die.

Every school should assign daily homework on these critical current events.
To educate. Fight back, educators!

Pharma/Biotech stand silent while Putin's guys Elon & Trump rape America. Their silence makes them complicit!

Cancer doesn’t care if you’re Democrat or Republican, Black or white, urban or rural, rich or poor.
Cancer research helps everyone.
President Felon is cutting the budget to pay for his huge tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy.
The cure for cancer will come from an entity with no profitability from the illness.
It's not many ass, it's big pharma's, but please, put your faith in Pfizer.

OR
Colonizing Mars?
🙄🤔🙄🤔
I bet those "protest voters" feel so smart now...smdh.
Keep in mind 1 driver of the protest vote was leftist accelerationism—people who *want* the federal government toppled.
Notice how they’re not defending USAID, the agency that could be tasked w/ assisting the Palestinians they claim to care about so much 🤔.

🤬
1)Blame DEI and immigrants for everything bad that happens in the country
2) dismantled everything helpful to the working people, including science research
3) giving precious tax cuts for the rich because hey they need the money more than we do.
the same out of touch old heads want a Surgeon General warning on alcohol too they lived their life’s to the full without restrictions now they are deciding the freedoms of the next generation

Apart from that, looking at declining life expectancy in the US, this looks beyond stupid.
Now it seems everything is to be sacrificed for Musk’s Mars Shot - promised by President Trump in his inaugural address.
It will be expensive.
Musk is also installing Reform (UK) and AdF to kill net zero in Europe - also for Mars?
This is a good read on the topic also.
They know *exactly* what they're writing. The NYT is complicit in all of this
What are these people doing? What leader has no regard for the people he supposedly serves? When it comes to Trump, he doesn't serve Americans; I'm sure his thinking is Americans serve him.
It will be too late!!
Every school should assign daily homework on these critical current events.
Fight back, educators! Educate!!
They are Nazis
(These fools think they're such supreme specimens that they could never be brought low by either?) May they learn.
So the Reps and Mags will reduce themself in bitter costs for all.
I know this from heated family discussions.
Would love to hear your thoughts.

That's all I'll say, you can infer the rest. :)
