Political Power in Science Funding | Fort Wayne News

Trump’s administration proposed a radical overhaul of federal science funding rules, letting political appointees override grant decisions based on presidential priorities — sparking widespread alarm among scientists. Critics warned this would politicize research, erode peer-review integrity, destabilize long-term projects, and cripple scientific collaboration by cutting funding for publications and conferences. The move, framed by the OMB as boosting transparency, threatened to turn science into a tool of political agenda rather than a pursuit of objective discovery.

Rockport Plant’s Energy Future | Fort Wayne News

Indiana Michigan Power is pivoting away from coal at its Rockport plant, not shutting it down entirely but replacing it with a natural gas facility—and eyeing small modular nuclear reactors as a future option, backed by federal funding. This shift aligns with Governor Mike Braun’s “all-of-the-above” energy strategy, designed to bring high-paying jobs and economic revitalization to struggling communities. While proponents tout nuclear’s reliability and carbon-free potential, critics question its feasibility, cost, and whether it distracts from proven renewables like solar and wind. The state is betting big on this transition to anchor new energy tech and jobs—despite no U.S. SMR project ever being completed.
