I don't know if banning federal scientist from publishing has legal basis but creating a state run medical journal is not a bad idea in concept but we all know it will be used to push narratives that the state wants to push. Vaccines are bad, Trump coin cures cancer, unregulated substances from RFK's company will add years onto your life. You can always find 5 to 10 unscrupulous scientist or college professors who will trade ethics for dollars. Just call them leading scientist and have them publish whatever you want.

Let me get this straight, they want to kill a state sponsored media company, PBS, and then turn right around and propose a state-run medical journal?!?! Do they not see the hypocrisy in their proposal?

No they don't.

If Conservatives were able to spot hypocrisy in themselves we wouldn't be here.

Do you really still believe that hypocrisy is something they care about at all? They've never cared about it.

Telling a conservative they're being hypocritical is like telling them they're violating Sharia Law. They do not care, and they might even take pride in it. The concept of operating according to a set of principles or a standard of morality is completely foreign to conservatives, and they think other people are stupid for worrying about that crap. Anything that increases their rank in society (whether real or perceived) is good. Anything that harms others is good.

I urge you to read this and then share it with other people as appropriate. The sad reality is that much of the electorate does not care about hypocrisy, even the people who complain about hypocrisy when they perceive themselves to be on the losing end.
