I was the staffer who got the daily list of NSF grants.
Senator Proxmire hated science so he got famous for handing out the Golden Fleece Award. He would just pick some scientific title that his Neanderthal supporters would laugh at and published them.
Scientific publications kept pointing out that Proxmire had an uncanny knack of finding research projects that led to practical excellent results in medicine and other areas.
Now here is the kind of thing I got paid for. Ashbrook asked me if I could make a list like that for him to use.
I gave him a lesson straight from “Why was this information produced?” I told him that Proxmire got away with this because he was a liberal fool. If Ashbrook made the same dumbass error, the press would crucify him.
The Director of OPM I worked under as a Reagan appointee disliked me for calling him on dumbass publicity tricks that his own beloved assistants called genius. So he got rid of me and I went to career writer at VOA.
That same Director was the only Reagan appointee who got reappointed by Reagan in 1985, but who pulled such a dumbass trick that he did not get Senate approval. It is almost unique for a reelected President not to get the approval of the Senate for a renomination, especially in a Senate controlled by his own Party.
A pro staffer can save your ass.

The Germans and the English, of all the countries in the world, are the favorite targets of the anti–Whites. What we need to do is two fold: (1.) Stick up for both of those two Nations, (2.), and work to make sure that the Germans and the English put aside their hatred for each other and come together against their common foes.
Sure, the anti–Whites feign moral outrage for what happened in the Holocaust, just as they pretend to be angered about the plight of the Irish. What we also need to do, come to think of it now, is to communicate to the Jewish and Irish people that anti–Whites do not care about them at all, are motivated more by hatred of their own White Race than love of either the Jews or the Irish, and that the anti–Whites are only using them.
What I find ridiculous is how quickly the anti–Whites have switched to criticizing what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians, as soon as Apartheid South Africa fell. This, of course, proves that the anti–Whites have no more love for Jewish people than they do for their own.
