So essentially, the American taxpayer has unwittingly been the world’s piggy bank for god knows how long, and all the while, the beneficiaries of our forced donations have been telling us how awful we are. https://t.co/YHkl5RCujI

And here’s a fun quote: Trump’s guilty of foreign interference by stopping the flow of U.S. taxpayers’ dollars to an authoritarian 3rd world government that locks up its citizens in COVID pens, criminalizes free speech, and disarms its sheepherding subjects? oooh, he’s so bad!
“Last week after it was revealed the universities had been asked to justify their funding, the National Tertiary Education Union called on the government to ‘guarantee Australian researchers would be protected’.
"The federal government must push back on the Trump administration's blatant foreign interference in our independent research in the strongest possible terms," NTEU president Alison Barnes said.
