[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the FFRDCs are at risk for losing work, especially work that does not align with administration priorities. That said, as government contractors, this is not the first downturn they have dealt with. The drawdown after the Cold War ended and sequestration were two events that put funding at risk, and the FFRDCs survived. There is always a push to prove value and show how much money research can save or otherwise the value it delivers. The need for FFRDCs will endure, even though it is not clear if the current administration supports independent research.  That said, China researchers will be better placed than those working on trans-Atlantic security. The industrial base remains a hot topic. Leaders may need to kiss the ring to survive.  [/quote]

I feel bad for think tanks whose CEOs came from the Biden administration (Brookings and RAND) because Trump and co. are clearly on a war path. [/quote]

But MITRE is the most targeted, and that's not what's going on with them. [/quote]
