You're right, it is very stupid to defund research because of non-research related issues.

Let's see how all the neanderthal-grade Trump supporters justify this.
"No one knows when the next alert or request to save a chunk of US government-held climate data will come in. Such data, long available online, keeps getting taken down by US President Donald Trump's administration. For the last six months or so, Cathy Richards has been entrenched in the response. She works for one of several organisations bent on downloading and archiving public data before it disappears.
"You get a message at 11 o'clock at night saying, 'This is going down tomorrow'," she says. "You try to enjoy your day and then everything goes wrong. You just spend the night downloading data."
"Some of the messages are "heart-breaking", says Richards. Scientists sometimes get in touch, desperate to know that data they have spent their professional lives collecting will be rescued. "You hear the urgency," she says. "You understand that this is someone's X amount of years of research and this is their baby. That's probably why we snap into action."
Shortly after President Trump's inauguration on 25 January 2025, his administration announced sweeping changes to federal departments and agencies, in a bid to reduce what it called "waste" and "inefficiencies". But many of the programmes and resources currently disappearing are critically important, scientists say. Climate researchers who spoke to the BBC pointed out that some deleted datasets have supported important research on climate change and life-threatening weather extremes, for example."

Inside the desperate rush to save decades of US scientific data from deletion
Swathes of scientific data deletions are sweeping across US government websites – with decades of research at risk. Now, scientists are racing to save their work before it's lost.

Medical research brain drain: Why scientists could flee the U.S.
The Trump administration's staff reductions and cuts to research funding could potentially cause young scientists to leave the U.S. in search of more stable opportunities abroad.

I see TS continues his unhinged crusade of calling anyone stupid that doesn't agree with him, and putting people on ignore.
Imagine someone like this getting to have any sort of power.
Imagine him as a war room mod.
in the second he'd ban people he disagrees with. in the first he'd send them to the gulag.

It was unfortunately predictable, but I didn't expect this to escalate this quickly.

You are only burying yourself by showing how unbelievably stupid you are. Do you even have a high school degree?

The Dems have been in support of colleges and universities for decades at this point. It's been the right hand side of the aisle that has been increasingly against higher learning, especially at elite institutions.

Irreparable damage to this country. So much is built on being the destination for some of the smartest people in the world.
Instead we have this shit-tastic administration destroying that position so they can bang the gong on idiocy such as their version of racial politics.
