Edward Witten is an American theoretical physicist known for his contributions to string theory, topological quantum field theory, and various areas of mathematics. He is a professor emeritus in the school of natural sciences at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Witten is a researcher in string theory, quantum gravity, supersymmetric quantum field theories, and other areas of mathematical physics. Witten's work has also significantly impacted pure mathematics. In 1990, he became the first physicist to be awarded a Fields Medal by the International Mathematical Union, for his mathematical insights in physics, such as his 1981 proof of the positive energy theorem in general relativity, and his interpretation of the Jones invariants of knots as Feynman integrals. He is considered the practical founder of M-theory. .. more

Trump has been working to dismantle that work since entering office. He is always working against the people.

"the only offer on the table was that I needed to resign by 5pm that day or the DOJ would basically rain hell on UVA... If I did not resign that day, I was told that the DOJ would extract/block hundreds of millions of dollars from UVA before they would even negotiate."

The latest? Trump is pardoning Changpeng Zhao, who built a company that allowed terrorists and sex predators to launder money.
Why? Because Zhao made a huge investment in Trump's corrupt crypto business.
Pay-to-play.

Whether he gets paid will ultimately be up to DOJ's second-in-command, who was recently his personal lawyer.
