I believe “independent” here simply refers to the fact that they aren’t government employees. These are typically university faculty and scientists from industry who are volunteering their time and expertise on the board.

Yep. We're deep inside Stage 5, which is Empire's Collapse. China has already eaten our lunch economically. 47 is speeding our demise, ceding to their leadership and fulfilling Putin's most important dream: ending the US as a functioning nation.

"Keep the ppl stupid, poor and "in the dark"... The basic premise of any dictatorship... It's that simple. Problem is, 30%+ of their population is there already there and Democrat voters are too damn lazy to get off the ass to vote. Maybe this time will be different. I hope it is!

Who in god's name urged Trump to fire the nation's brain trust? Clearly Trump had no idea who they were or what the board did, or even that it existed. Someone must have felt threatened by actual science. Which hate-filled, ignorant ass was it this time?

Why can’t you guys see it, he is working for Putin. I don’t know why but he is working for him, hey Kash, where are you man…. The President of the USA looks like a Russian agent, you are investigating aren’t you????

Which you love. Much better to put some fucking oligarchs and their slaves on it. Cause you disgusting app makers are obviously much smarter than lifetime experts in their fields.

Donald Trump is a Russian asset and a clear and present danger to the USA. He must be impeached, arrested, convicted, jailed, stripped of all ill-gotten assets, and, should he survive 30 years behind bars, exiled to Russia never to return.
