"One-third of young #scientists who were planning careers in academic #research changed their minds in the spring of 2025, according to a new survey, with fewer expecting to remain in higher education and in the U.S. to work or feeling that pursuing a Ph.D. was the right decision."

The #Trump Administration’s Plan for Protecting Consumers? Politely Ask Companies to Behave.
In mid-July testimony before Congress, #RussellVought boasted that, as the acting head of the #ConsumerFinancialProtectionBureau, he’d refashioned the agency’s approach to pursuing banks & other financial companies accused of exploiting Americans — the role #Congress had created for the agency after the 2008 economic crash.
#Vought had spent the first 18 months of the new Trump administration trying to dismantle the bureau, much as he and other appointees had done with the U.S. Agency for International Development. At #CFPB , he’d ordered mass layoffs, tried to choke off the bureau’s funding & ended the lease on its headquarters, attempting to make good on his vow to put civil servants “in trauma.” But federal courts blocked Vought’s efforts to close the CFPB, with a judge at one point saying the administration had acted with “complete disregard” for Congress.

The Trump regime takes a wrecking ball to scientific research in the USA.
If you are a student or researcher who's been thinking of coming to the USA, now might be the time to look elsewhere.
