"This is the latest stupid move made by a president who continues to harm science and American. The NSB is apolitical. It advises the president on the future of NSF."
"It unfortunately is no surprise a president who has attacked NSF from day one would seek to destroy the board that helps guide the Foundation."
"Will the president fill the NSB with MAGA loyalists who won't stand up to him as he hands over our leadership in science to our adversaries?"
"A real bozo the clown move."
The Trump administration has dismissed the entire National Science Board, which advises the president and Congress on the National Science Foundation. The NSF has been funding research at historically low levels and has experienced significant delays in funding distribution. The NSF has played a crucial role in developing technologies such as MRIs and cellphones. Zoe Lofgren criticized the dismissal, stating it harms science and raises concerns about future appointments to the board, questioning the president's commitment to scientific leadership.
