It does make me livid, just as much as the waste of taxpayer money on pointless (and sometimes outright racist) research here makes me livid: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48335722
replyBelieve it or not, it's possible to hate both Kash Patel/Kristi Noem and the unelected bureaucrats burning tax money on awful research.
Sure that’s fine. They funded research that you think is wasteful and you would like to have tools to provide that feedback. The issue with this OMB change is that it is not that. The OMB change is a change that allows the administration to cancel any grant for any reason without answering to citizens about it.
replyBTW your “believe it or not” is quite condescending. Do you talk to people in real life like that?
The president is elected, the bureaucrats that were making the decisions before were not, that's the difference.

Yes, especially when they're the sort of people who support taking my tax money to fund idiotic and outright racist "research".
