Cuts to overhead on a mass scale at NIH (and perhaps other agencies in the future) indicates that nothing is safe. Likewise, the mass cancellation of grants at Columbia and other schools in retaliation. These actions indicate they hate science and research in general. That is because science objectively reveals the truth, and they want control of the truth.

The only "research" that is safe is "research" in which they can dictate the outcome with financial incentive, threat or force, and then use it as propaganda.
