Summary
Senate Republicans, led by Ted Cruz, have flagged nearly 3,500 National Science Foundation (NSF) grants worth over $2 billion as “woke DEI” research, accusing them of promoting leftist ideology.
Scientists, including chemical engineer Darren Lipomi, argue that their projects—ranging from cancer treatment to AI research—are being unfairly politicized.
The move has sparked fear among researchers, particularly immigrants, and raised concerns about future funding.
Critics warn that targeting DEI in science could stifle innovation, limit diversity, and discourage young scientists from pursuing research careers.
I don’t think that’s just “collateral damage.” Destroying the universities along with the rest of the education system in order to stop people from becoming too well educated seems to be part of the plan.
I think recession is part of the plan. Collapse the economy for our good buddy Putin.
It couldn’t be more obvious.
”I love the uneducated”
