This is the destruction of federal funding for scientific research & universities as we know it. A total, comprehensive politicization of the process & an end run around Congress.
Another devastating loss of marine science capacity
This is a great thread, excellent post, and critical quote: “Our ability to be governed by reason rather than mobs is on the line.”

“Project 2029” says that we are unable to define our own vision. It’s reactive and doesn’t distinguish itself from its namesake. Why on *earth* would you want to send this kind of boring message that suggests all you can do is copy the other side?
An intensely destructive proposal to US scientific freedom and capability
Excellent - it’s got to be about conservation AND management
Good thread and window into OSW barriers in action

Economy-wide efforts to achieve net-zero emissions offer climate and air quality-related public health benefits from reducing fossil fuel combustion. However, carbon dioxide removal (CDR) may be neces...
BREAKING:
New proposed OMB regulation, applying to all federal grants, requiring grant reviews by senior political appointees and re-emphasizes that "peer review remains advisory and does not replace agency discretion".

The entire business model of R1 public universities rests on 4 revenue sources:
1. Federal grants
2. Private gifts/endowments
3. Tuition (esp. from foreign students)
4. State $
For decades, 📈 in 1-3 offset a secular 📉 in 4. Now, 1 & 3 are being decimated & 4 ain't coming back. The math is clear.
More destruction of U.S. science leadership, infrastructure and invaluable research and information that affects all of us. This sounds like another lawsuit in the making. At least I hope so. Gift link. 🎁 www.nytimes.com/2026/06/01/c...
