big government is bad. therefore we should have government run journals. i imagine there's zero history to look at ([C]CCP) for evidence to why this is bad.

Big government is bad unless THEY are the ones running big government. It's the same with states' rights. They're all for states' rights until the state does something they don't like.

IIRC, RFK is not a small-government conservative at all. He's a big-government liberal vaccine crank. He's the HHS secretary not for any kind of conservative ideological affinity, but because of a quid-pro-quo for throwing is support behind Trump during the election.

The Trump administration is weird.

that is true, but he _has_ been slashing and cutting government programs. i think you're right and it's just his personal agenda coinciding with this, but the overall hypocrisy is just wild to me. not sure how anyone who voted for Trump can rationalize stuff like this.
