I will say on reddit people have been so fantastically imaginative and creative with their "predictions" it's become completely intolerable, and I've left the site.
The Trump admin seems to be going after waste and political government spending. DEI went under attack, and they've gone after fraud and other forms of abuse through USAID and government organizations. I'm sure they'll go after engineering research funding due to DoD cuts, and hopefully high F&A costs, but I would expect the majority of engineering research will remain intact. I try to be realistic in my understanding of what's happening, not imaginative.
