We Are Uncomfortably Close to 1933
Acquiescence by Republicans to Trump’s agenda is reminiscent of the Reichstag’s collapse.

what happens when we slash US public funding for a biomedical field, & increase the availability & significance of private funding, when the media generally become less restricted by traditional/expert regulations?
unfortunately, i may know the answer, based on some related experiences

Although we don’t want this fight now, if we have to have it we will. We have all the funders/unis/institutes on our side. Elife papers will be treated just the same as before. And maybe we can collectively put a dent in Clarivate’s business model.
We don’t think the impact factor is a good thing. But this is not the fight we want right now. We are trying something amazing and it’s working. We don’t want authors or other journals to fear trying it. Clarivate know they have this control and are using it to squash innovation. It is bullying.
I have been trying to figure out whether eLife's position is that they approve or disapprove of the Clarivate decision to no longer give them an impact factor.
This makes it seem like they disapprove of it, although it doesn't exactly say that.

Publishing requires constant innovation and renewal to remain relevant. We are concerned by the action that Clarivate is taking in regard to @elife.bsky.social but not because eLife may not be eligible for an Impact Factor but because of the chilling effect on innovation. sfdora.org/2024/11/25/c...
