Among the many "are you kidding me" aspects of American politics is the rampant hostility in red areas to university funding and federal employees.

I'm in the Philly area, we'll take a hit from those cuts, but we'll manage.

A lot of local economies in MAGAland will be obliterated.
There is a false dichotomy drawn between "the ivory tower" and "the real world," and I'm here to report that in a post-industrial society, your real-world economy absolutely hinges on the university.

University towns are factory towns. Universities drive economic activity, not the other way around.

We won’t stop until Trump’s order is blocked once and for all. Take action now:
Tell Congress: Don't defund our communities
President Trump’s decision to block trillions in federal funding to critical services already approved by Congress is a reckless, cruel, unprecedented power grab that will impact every one of us.
