Hello,

I'm pretty sure that in the article you provided, NASA said they were fulfilling the president's mandate. Including doing more with less. And they say they are succeeding. It's all very exciting.

So, with NASA doing what the president asked them to do, within the budget the president gave them, you see it as 'fighting back?' It seems more like they're 'following orders.' Successfully, too.
