Rachel Maddow: Trump USDA Climate Science Quash Squanders US Science Leadership [VIDEO]
Trump accelerating brain drain in the U.S.
Rachel Maddow looks at the history of scientific excellence and global leadership by the USDA and how the agency’s research capacity is being decimated by Donald Trump and Secretary Sonny Perdue’s effort to suppress climate science and other research that doesn’t comport with the Trump agenda.
The video is over 20 minutes long, delivered in Maddow’s signature professorial style. It’s still an important piece, one of many facets of American life that Donald Trump is systematically dismantling.
