“There’s a familiar temptation in politics. The temptation to treat federal funding like a tool for ideological compliance. Starve blue states for funds, punish them until they fall in line, and run your victory lap. Turn the thermostat the other way, and red states get the same harsh treatment. The entire political game becomes less about good governance and more about finding which backs to scratch and which backs to stab. This isn’t a proposal for selective use of power but a decentralized, non-partisan strategy. Deciding which rural areas get flooded with cash while other areas starve for cash is bad.” (07/13/26)
