The WH budget for FY26 includes a proposed $18B cut to NIH, a $5B cut to NASA, a $5B cut to NSF, a $5B cut to CDC, and a $5B cut to EPA. You don't need a math/econ PhD to see that a $40B bailout to Argentina covers this and more right here in the USA.

Bessent says US considers doubling aid to Argentina to $40B

More than 30% of this century’s science Nobel prizewinners immigrated: see their journeys

Frame it!

it's not going to spread, but it's surely going to result in $billions that would have gone to top tier universities going to not-top tier universities.
