Let’s Cut All That Woke NASA Science Stuff
Russell Vought
C-SPAN
Keith’s note: Some former Trump people like former OMB director Russell Vought are running around saying NASA is too “woke” so its OK to cut the NASA science budget by 50% to find the money to do the things that they wanted to do with Social Security or Medicare money – but can’t. He has been making the rounds with these ideas – and you can read all about all his anti-wokeish fever dreams here (se pages 85-86).

pfft that is kinda silly!
SSI Medicare/Medicaid etc
still represent about half of all fed spending.
The entire NASA budget is less than half of one percent.
“Spending” that you and I and everyone else spends a lifetime paying into.
Well to be fair, the 50% cut “to science” proposed by the “alt-woke” would return SMD to 2021 levels, since the 2022 & Biden administration’s 2023 budgets effectively doubled SMD funding.
