When you compare how much right-wing funding is going into their version of the humanities in higher ed ("civil discourse," "civic thought," "intellectual freedom") vs how little public or private funding there is for peer-reviewed humanities scholarship & teaching, it really makes you think.

Mitch McConnell finally returned to the Capitol after disappearing from public view for 92 days. But there was one thing reporters were not allowed to do: Record him speaking. The 84-year-old Kentucky senator reappeared Monday after a lengthy recovery from a June medical emergency that left him hospitalized and later in rehabilitation. He arrived in a wheelchair. He looked noticeably thinner.
