Science in US agencies

lundi 25 décembre 2017 à 01:00

The bully and his agents are attacking science in every part of the US government.

If the Republicans don't cancel democracy in the US the way Hernández just did in Honduras, we may have them out of power in 3 years. But it won't be easy to repair the damage they are doing now. All staff who remain in these agencies are either struggling desperately to maintain their integrity despite being forbidden to show it, or becoming cynical and thus useless as a support for integrity. In effect, we will have to replace them and start over.

That effect is not limited to agencies that are involved with science.
