I haven’t seen this label used before but it seems apt. The video contains a good discussion of what “science populism” is and how it’s harmful.

Descansa en pau Gaspar, et trobarem a faltar
El Dr. Gaspar Rosselló ha estat sempre un home d'universitat i serà sempre part de la @ub.edu. Ha marxat de forma tan sobtada que encara ressona en el meu cervell el seu riure intens del darrer dia que ens vam veure. I no sé com ho farem per mantenir aquest seu somriure per sempre més.

Apparently all the PhD researchers holding prestigious NSF-funded research fellowships are having their salaries withheld until some unspecified time when the leadership figures out how to eliminate any grant funding that doesn’t align with the president’s political ideology.
It’s official: all funding requests made on Tuesday by postdocs for their salaries have been unilaterally rejected by NSF.
