U.S. scientists, unaccustomed to shock-and-awe political assaults, are reeling from President Donald Trump's executive orders on DEI, gender and other subjects.

The article from MSN discusses how former President Donald Trump's policies have significantly impacted the scientific community in the U.S., leading to widespread chaos and confusion. Trump's administration was marked by actions such as the dismissal of scientists, the suppression of scientific data, and the promotion of policies that contradicted established scientific consensus, particularly around climate change and public health issues like the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. These actions included altering or ignoring scientific reports, disbanding advisory panels, and appointing individuals with little to no scientific background to key positions. This has resulted in a demoralized scientific workforce, with many scientists feeling their work was undermined or ignored, leading to a broader erosion of trust in government science and policy-making. The article highlights specific instances where scientific integrity was compromised, affecting research, environmental regulations, and public health responses, thereby sowing long-term confusion and mistrust within and beyond the scientific community.
