Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

Dietram Scheufele is a major science communication scholar. What strikes me (as it has in past cases, including those at Michigan) is how academia--faculty and administrators--simply *do not want to know* about bad actors, especially when they are famous. Explains why ASU has turned a blind eye too.

Politicians can hold a thousand rallies and say “prices are falling.” Then Americans walk into a grocery store. Reality wins. Eggs. Rent. Gas. Healthcare. Those receipts don’t care about campaign slogans. Maybe stop telling people the economy is amazing when their wallets disagree.
