FY 2026 Budget Request - NASA

Fiscal Year 2026 Budget Request

Not only is Trump leveling science funding at NASA, like he did with the National Science Foundation, but look closely at the budget. Beginning next year at 800 million and by 2030, 3.5 billion (nearly 20% of its budget), NASA is required to work towards “Commercial Moon and Mars Infrastructure and Transportation”. The ultimate subsidy for the commercial space sector.

They also eliminated STEM engagement program, which provided funding for the next generation of scientists to participate in NASA opportunities. I can’t wait for all this greatness Trump has been preaching to arrive.

    What you’re doing is called a strawman.

    Of course one should not ignore crimes against humanity. I’m saying we are reducing people, countries and systems based on what agenda we have today.

      Lol no a strawman is presenting a different argument than what’s being discussed. I said nothing of the sort and just called you out for your bullshit tankie thoughts. The USA isn’t some bastion of freedom, but to act like china or russia is better by ignoring the shit they’re currently doing is full on tankie ignorance.

        check out documentaties about china that dont start with genocide

        here is the argument

        you just willfully ignore the shit they do

        this is a strawman. I never said I’d want to ignore anything. You brought that up and tried to fight me for it. That is literally the meaning of a strawman. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

        So no, you’re trying to push red scare and that is at best naive or at worst deliberate antisocialist propaganda.

            I did not and I explained it well. This is going nowhere. You’re going on the blocklist. Bye.

              I regard you as a bad faith debater. You just blocked a guy for pointing out your own words. So there’s really nothing to add. My words would be wasted. You seem to have no real concept of a conversation. Feel free to block everyone else too. It doesn’t hurt anyone.

                Why then even say something? The other person was dealing in bad faith themselves. I pointed out in good faith that it is okay to criticize china but its not okay to reduce someone solely on their former deeds. Its the same as calling germany a nazi shithole (but that is becoming increasingly true) today just because of the holocaust.

                I blocked them because they were repeating themselves and being condescending, which i encourage everyone to do because debate isnt just being right but also being fair.
