This is just it. The amount of damage being done to American government will require far more money and resources to fix after Trump and Musk are done with their rampage.

“Since the entire staff was also placed on administrative leave, we have been locked out of our computers, and have no chance to assist in an orderly transition in our work.” Sounds super efficient and safe
A letter to the American People:
For over 11 years, 18F has been proudly serving you to make government technology work better. We are nonpartisan civil servants. 18F has worked on hundreds of projects, all designed to make government technology not just efficient but effective, and to save money for American taxpayers.
However, all employees at 18F - a group that the Trump Administration GSA Technology Transformation Services Director called "the gold standard" of civic tech - were terminated today at midnight ET.This was a surprise to all 18F staff and our agency partners. Just yesterday we were working on important projects, including improving access to weather data with NOAA, making it easier and faster to get a passport with the Department of State, supporting free tax filing with the IRS, and other critical projects with organizations at the federal and state levels.
All of that work has now abruptly come to a halt. Since the entire staff was also placed on administrative leave, we have been locked out of our computers, and have no chance to assist in an orderly
transition in our work. We don't even have access to our personal employment data. We're supposed to return our equipment, but can't use our email to find out how or where.

The United States is not a business. There are no shareholders. There is no board of directors. There is no mandate to turn a profit. The business analogy with government was always a broken one. Government exists to serve the common good for the people. Taxes fund the common good.

In the few weeks Trump/Musk have been in office, I have felt threatened for being a foreign national and underrepresented minority, grant was removed from study section - no explanation (and won’t be reviewed), and federal support to universities which enables my work is gone. How long will I last?

Don’t believe the Trump administration’s lies. De-funding the NIH, excluding students from specific backgrounds from funding, and excluding research studying women and other underrepresented groups is not “efficient.” It’s destroying science. arghavan.substack.com/p/do-not-be-...
Photo of cells under a microscope with overlying text “Do not be fooled.
Destroying our ability to do science is not
"efficient."
Innovation is a key component of the American spirit. The Trump administration's moves to defund the American scientific enterprise are very un-American.”

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

1. I feel like this is such obvious advice that it gets taken for granted & consequently no one says this to young scientists but READ PAPERS, read all the papers. As you move up in your career you will have less & less time to do this. Read everything that appeals to you not just in your field
