Research Cuts Destroy Decades of Investment

Research is not something that could be anticipated by the Constitution. This reply exhibits ignorance on the entire research process, especially basic research. Trump and DOGE are taking a chainsaw approach to a lot of funding, especially research, and as many have pointed out, destroying the accumulated knowledge over several decades making the U.S. the leader in STEM. In addition, the support of students at all levels is being decimated. The return on taxpayer investment over the years is huge.

What was your major at Princeton and what has been your career since? Sounds like we have a major ideological contest with the apparent partisan ideological polarization of science and education.
