Republicans stay screaming about law & order…But won’t release the Epstein files.

They sit up here posting conspiracy theories all day…But won’t release the Epstein files.

They’re quick to call a hearing or launch an investigation on some BS…But (say it with me) won’t release the Epstein files.

The only reason Republicans have a reputation as "fiscal hawks" is that the press refuses to tell the public basic facts about what they do when they are in office.

This morning, like every morning, US President will wake up: paint his face orange, clip on his comical wig, put on a big floppy tie & oversized suit & weird platform shoes, and will go out in the world to steal as much money has he can while undermining US national security & economy & democracy.

Top Marginal Tax Rates

Black women in banned states were 3.3x as likely to die as white mothers in those states.

Ok so yeah, this has quickly become the #1 misunderstanding about the canceled grants

the grants are not “subsidies” or “entitlements” to Harvard or Princeton or whatever

they aren’t going into universities’ endowments

they are competitive contracts won by these universities to do research
There is a PR narrative quickly emerging about “entitlement” of elite universities, as if this $ is some sort of subsidy

Harvard & others must counter this quickly

The $ doesn’t flow into Harvard’s coffers - this is grant money, most of which goes to research the govt has agreed has social value
