Just another Republican

This is who they are.

Who is surprised?

Alaska’s governor is trying to destroy its universities.

Republicans across the country, from local yokels to presidents like Reagan, have for decades demanded a line-item veto.

This is what happens when you give them one.

In a shocking example of political overreach, Dunleavy announced 182 line-item vetoes to his state’s 2020 budget last week. 

He thereby cut the budget proposed by the Alaska legislature by almost $410m in general funds. 

Almost one-third of the cuts will come from the University of Alaska system, which will see its budget cut by $130m – a staggering 41%.
