Last spring, #Trump bluntly expressed his vision for science at #NASA in his first budget request. Along with extensive layoffs, he called for 40 of the agency’s 124 science missions, including #Mars Sample Return, to be #defunded, & for the surviving missions to make do with less. Among NASA scientists, the request was demoralizing; within months, its major #science centers lost thousands of staffers to buyouts & cutbacks.

‼️🚨Corporation for #PublicBroadcasting to shut down after being defunded by #Congress, targeted by #Trump
The #CPB, a cornerstone of American culture for 3 generations, announced Friday it would take steps toward its own #closure after being #defunded by Congress—marking the end of a nearly 6-decade era in which it fueled the production of renowned #educational programming, #cultural #content & even #emergency alerts.

"In the Trump Administration’s initial budget the #CorporationForPublicBroadcasting is #defunded. For nearly 50 years, the #CPB has supported high quality programming across #noncommercial radio, television and digital platforms. #WMPG receives 25% ($70,000) of its annual operating funds from CPB, funds that provide for informative national syndicated programming and also help cover numerous expenses, from electricity to equipment to staffing."

Three prominent professors have departed their tenured posts at #Yale, one of America's most prestigious #IvyLeague schools, for new #Edu jobs in #Canada.
They left #America clues, and basically cited the frightening #reprisals, threats to free speech, bullying and anti-intellectual fervor vowed against the #HigherEd world that has already seen students plucked off streets by secret police and institutions publicly denounced and #defunded by #FarRight thought policing.

This is the vision that #Project2025 lays out.
It proposes a dramatically #defunded NOAA whose husk is nonetheless hyper-responsive to the administration’s politics.
And commercializing the agency’s underlying data risks creating a system of tiered services.
One could imagine a future where
👉private outfits charge subscriptions for their weather reports,
and
👉only some municipalities are able to pay for the best forecasts.👉Private companies are also subject to commercial conflicts of interest;
❓do we want flood-risk predictions sponsored by a flood-insurance company,
or
❓heat advisories from an air-conditioning conglomerate? -

@thetyee IMHO all drugs should be #decriminalized so that #HarmReduction can work and people can get clean, non-adultered stuff from safe sources and #OrganizedCrime would be #defunded...
But that assumes the #DrugWar wasn't about pushing #facism and the #PoliceState...

here's a video of intrepid #TruthTeller and #InvestigativeJournalist #NancyRommelmann confidently stating in 2020 that #PortlandPolice had already been #defunded by 50% for five years at that point
in reality, their budget had ballooned from 183M to 231M since 2015.
I'm sure this was just an innocent mistake, and not far-right disinformation / propaganda. -
