"While the U.S. is pulling back on its investments in innovation and research, other nations are eager to gain advantages through attracting a highly skilled workforce.
The European Union announced the Choose Europe for Science initiative last month, devoting 500 million euros in grant funding to attract American scientists and scholars to Europe, where they can continue their research unfettered by political agendas."

American Civil War is BACK. People fighting again for human rights en dignity. Against deportation and racism. 1861 all over again in America. Dumb Trump is going back in time...

The great poaching: America's brain drain begins

The Trump administration’s spending cuts and restrictions on foreign students are triggering a brain drain — and American scientists are panicking.

Given that Trump was duly elected, maybe this guy is correct. We're too ignorant to govern ourselves. newyorker.com/magazine/2025/06

Critics warn that Trump's policies increasingly resemble Mao-era China, with protectionism and anti-intellectualism risking U.S. decline as global rivals adapt.

"Federal science budgets have been slashed. Stricter immigration policies have spread fear among international scientists working in the United States, and those who had hoped to. Graduate and postdoctoral students have had their visas canceled, or worry they will. The administration cut off funding for international students at Harvard — a judge blocked the move, but other universities worry about being next.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio pledged to “aggressively revoke” the visas of Chinese students in what he called “critical fields,” which almost certainly includes science, where labs often have more Chinese than American-born graduate students and postdocs.

President Trump has worried about the nation losing its scientific edge to “rivals abroad,” as he wrote in a letter in March to his science adviser, Michael Kratsios. He urged Mr. Kratsios to continue Vannevar Bush’s vision, “recapturing the urgency which propelled us so far in the last century.” Yet Mr. Kratsios argues that philanthropies and industry should pick up more of the cost, and that too much federal science spending goes to bureaucracy.

“Spending more money on the wrong things is far worse than spending less money on the right things,” he said in a speech at the National Academy in May.

But even at Johns Hopkins, which has benefited from the philanthropy of former New York Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, those dollars can’t make up the shortfall. Industry doesn’t typically fund basic research, and it costs more to do research in industry in part because companies, unlike university labs, have to pay competitive wages.""

De groeiverwachtingen gaan omlaag en de importheffingen gaan omhoog. Gemaakte verdragen worden weer verbroken…

De wet op abortus werd ook weer strenger in specifieke medische noodgevallen en een schip met de naam van een voornaam LGBTQ+ persoon moet veranderd worden.

En de “besties” hebben de vriendschap alweer opgezegd en kortwieken elkaar dan maar in de pers…

America, het land van de achteruitgang.
