The United States, once a global leader in scientific innovation, is facing a politically driven dismantling of its research infrastructure. Federal support for crucial areas like climate change and public health is being slashed, scientists are fired, and grants canceled. This isn't just a war on science; it’s a direct assault on truth, reason, and public well-being. This deliberate defunding and silencing of scientific voices for ideological reasons represents a slow-motion collapse of American scientific leadership. When dogma dictates discovery, and facts are suppressed to preserve comfort, it's clear who truly suffers: the public, left vulnerable and manipulated by a system that prioritizes control over collective knowledge and progress. It's a shocking betrayal of public trust.
