Trump’s Science Smackdown: Who Needs Facts Anyway?

So, you’re sipping your drink, and I lean in: “Did you hear Trump’s basically torching science in the U.S.?” You’d laugh, thinking I’m exaggerating—except I’m not. Since January 2025, the Trump administration’s been swinging at scientific learning like it’s a piñata, and what’s spilling out isn’t candy. Funding cuts, global pullouts, and a vaccine skeptic running the health show—it’s a wild ride. As of March 30, 2025, this isn’t just noise; it’s a pattern […]

And now add climate change to the list. 🤬

“The guidance, which was distributed to several staffers last week, comes on the back of multiple new directives to cut off NIH funding to grants that are focused on subjects that are viewed as conflicting with the Trump administration’s priorities, such as gender identity, LGBTQ+ issues, vaccine hesitancy, and diversity, equity and inclusion.”

The Conversation: AI can be a powerful tool for scientists. But it can also fuel research misconduct. “…while AI is allowing scientists to make technological breakthroughs that are otherwise decades away or out of reach entirely, there’s also a darker side to the use of AI in science: scientific misconduct is on the rise.”

"But even if the money comes back, things won’t return to the way they were before. Now that #Trump has set the precedent of pulling scientific funding as a punishment for unrelated offenses, #scientificresearch will always be at risk of being caught in the middle. ... If obeying the dictates of one administration places scientists at risk of being persecuted by the next, what are they to do?"

From the article: "President Donald Trump's administration has announced it will slash billions of dollars from overheads in grants for biomedical research as a part of broader cost-saving measures, a move some scientists say will stifle scientific advancements."
