I will add -- personal opinion -- the DOD press release cherry picks studies this OSD thinks will sound 'useless'. But also canceled are studies on straight warfighting topics like how to best team AI and humans, or how space weapons affect deterrence. They just hate social science, period.
Look, you don't need me to tell this is stupid, short-sighted, and just plain intellectualism run amok, but I'm going to do it anyways. And the projected "savings" of $30 million dollars? It's a Pentagon rounding error. We're about to rediscover that ignorance is costly.

I went through the Trump mass-deportation/'national security' executive orders, detailing what they authorize, & I identified a certain heritage. I'm not saying that's the only context for them, just that it's a present & operative one.
Then a bit on the ADL lying that Musk wasn't hailing victory.

Mass Deportation’s War-on-Terror DNA
Get ready for the deportation task forces, the expansion of for-profit cages, and Muslim Ban 3.0. PLUS! RIP to whatever remained of the Anti-Defamation League's credibility!

I hate this headline, because it dishonestly portrays the subject as having changed, when what really happened was reporters & editors went along with a heroic self-mythology rather than performing scrutiny and now realize what a mistake that was, w/o owning up to it.
