Summary:

A recent article by Boulevard Voltaire (https://www.bvoltaire.fr/accueillir-des-refugies-scientifiques-americains-mais-avec-quel-budget/) considered, in sarcastic fashion, the perception in France of a wave of U.S. “scientific refugees” ‒ or a wave of scientists from the U.S. moving to France in response to recent budget cuts to certain scientific initiatives in the U.S. 

The article drew comparisons between the state of science writ large in the U.S., on the one hand, and the state of science in France, on the other, and explained how while there has been a significant mainstream media reaction to anti-science policies in the U.S., there has largely been silence from French sources.
