This graph makes me want to cry.
This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

Linke Utopie: Jeder auf dem Planeten lebt sicher, gesund, gebildet und kann frei seine Wünsche ausleben.

Rechte Utopie: Weiße Männer arbeiten 60h-Woche für kaum Bezahlung, Frauen müssen kochen und Kinder kriegen, Nicht-Weiße werden an der Grenze erschossen, Milliardäre wohnen luxuriös auf dem Mars.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
