There are plenty of real issues with higher education, but the attacks on research are using protests and other things as a fig leaf. We've seen this movie before, when Germany destroyed the world's leading research university sys

I'm thinking perhaps the best place for a fusion reactor is 93 million miles away. It's already up and running, and we're making huge strides in energy collection and storage...

And is Seattle, “Jeff Bezos” says the crosswalk is sponsored by Amazon Prime and exhorts you not to tax the rich.

The Fed intervention was under Bush. The vast majority of the "COVID response" was under Trump. If you look at deficit spending by administration, you will also see that you have things backwards.

The "strong" man and his allies are the ones that crippled the legislative branch, except for tax cuts for the rich and appointing unqualified SC justices. There was bipartisan (Republican-ish) immigration legislation with enough
