The conservative think tank has filed thousands of public-information requests, clogging the pipeline at federal agencies in an apparent attempt to find employees a potential Trump administration would want to purge.

    Every single day, my eyerolls get harder. I’m pretty sure they’re going to roll to the back of my head before the election.

    The Heritage Foundation is an anti-American hate group and should be treated as such.

    The Heritage Foundation should fuck off, in my view. Full stop.

    “Conservative think tank” is an oxymoron – and more so the more you think about it. This is a fascism factory.

    Stuff like “climate change” or “equity” are such common and broadly used terms they’re going to be all over the place. They’re boiler plate buzzwords.

    It’s weird they even think of “climate change” as political at this point. Climate change as a political conflict rather than a simple description of reality seems long out of date.

      Not to the RWNJs and their thought leaders. And the thought leaders are going to give climate change the Big Tobacco treatment for as long as they possibly can.

    Trump can’t seem to stop talking about fucking windmills can we just send them every clip and news article of that windbag entirely unlabeled?

    I know many agencies charge per page to fulfill these requests, so hopefully with the broad scope of this one it will be more than the odious Heritage Foundation wants to pay.
