For hundreds of years, humanity has relied on science to improve lives. Science tests hypotheses, uses data, and follows a systematic method in pursuit of the truth. It’s not perfect of course. But destroying American science as we know it will only send us backward.

I genuinely do not understand the logic of these tariffs. Analysis shows will raise US prices, lower US GDP. What possible strategic benefit could there be? Asking for a friend.
WSJ ed board: "President Trump will fire his first tariff salvo on Saturday against those notorious American adversaries . . . Mexico and Canada. They’ll get hit with a 25% border tax, while China, a real adversary, will endure 10%. This reminds us of the old Bernard Lewis joke that it’s risky to be America’s enemy but it can be fatal to be its friend."View quoted post on X
