got the money on its merits, not because of McCarthy's ties to her office. Avoiding even the appearance of evil. Go after her? Of course not. BAU. Bidniz as usual.

"A curriculum that blends rigorous intellectual training with fieldwork experience prepares students to articulate and promote the common good of all society's members through careers or service in government, non-profits or the private sector."
Our taxdollars training the liberals/socialists how more effectively defeat us.

Either that, or as we know, many of these "foundations", "think-tanks" etc. are merely front jobs where they stash funds for their friends who are temporarily out of office.

The enormity of the budget precludes anyone from grasping it's entirety. And of course our "representatives" don't read the bills they vote on anyway. Note the surprise over CFR, and the fact that both parties have hired law consultants to explain their own legislation to them.
