#AEI
There was no AEI study. An AEI fellow took barebones data from one survey and extrapolated a percentage based on nothing more than that minimal data.

There was no study.
Rep. Brett Guthrie on Medicaid cuts: "There was an AEI study that studied this group of people who are able-bodied and not working. It said they spend over 6 hours a day on video games and socializing. That's just not fair."

And where is the left wing Hoover Institution, the left wing Heritage Foundation/AEI/Manhattan Institute, the left wing New York Post, the left wing Bohemian Club?
To start, Rufo says, "The left is over-institutionalized, and the right is under-institutionalized." Klein chips in with, "I say this all the time, man. The left is overformed by institutions, the right is underformed."
What? Where is the left wing Federalist Society, Fox News, or Turning Point?/4

New from @chloeneast.bsky.social at Can We Still Govern:
AEI cited her work to make the case for SNAP work requirements. Chloe explains that her and other research show that work requirements reduce SNAP access while doing nothing for employment outcomes.

AEI: "President Trump’s Tariff Formula Makes No Economic Sense. It’s Also Based on an Error."
Oopsies. "The formula for the tariffs ...does not make economic sense. ... But even if one were to take the Trump Administration’s tariff formula seriously, it makes an error that inflates the tariffs assumed to be levied by foreign countries four-fold."

I’m assuming AEI goes in the ‘not respectable’ bucket?

and theories out of English departments really are consequential—cultural literacy, cultural capital

Numerous members of right-wing think tanks like AEI and the Manhattan Institute at the Abundance Conference too.

This is just straight up a right-wing “movement.”

AEI is making a fired flags tracker so you can assess the replacements are more political. Coles out Monday.
"Hegseth has fired over a dozen senior military officers, including CJCS Gen. C.Q. Brown, Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the Air Force Vice Chief of Staff Gen. James Slife and the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse."

Hegseth ousts Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George
One of the sources said Hegseth wants someone in the role who will implement President Trump and Hegseth's vision for the Army.

Who invited someone from AEI to a conference with social welfare leaders?

To save you a click: yes, of course this piece quotes so-called "experts" from IFS and AEI.

i will mock every Heritage and AEI guy in defense
President-elect Trump has told Lockheed CEO Jim Taiclet he plans to cancel the $1 trillion F-35 contract because "China is winning the fighter race while Lockheed sends executives to DEI camps," according to NY Post financial correspondent Lydia Moynihan.

Really? That’s pretty racist then (I can’t say I follow either that mostly but AEI routinely shocks me)

working at AEI means you basically failed out of university

Turning the NEH into an AEI research wing while also riddling the NEH website with dumb typos
If you ain’t doing propaganda, the NEH ain’t interested.

AEI are you sure that China is the one decaying

He used to work for AEI lol, he’s one of the “I’m a weather professional and I’m here to tell you climate change isn’t real” brigade

better for AEI to listen to Guillory than to Tate on how and why to read, for sure
The first 10 seconds of this trailer - featuring John Guillory - might dissuade them from lionizing him.

Just so everyone knows this campaign is funded entirely by Philip Anschutz, owner of the Washington Examiner, The Weekly Standard, & LA Kings. He is the chief financier of the AEI, Federalist Society, & Heritage Foundation.

he also founded Major League Soccer
Hey, thanks, airport. I guess I was unaware that Lincoln preserved the union and ended slavery through the cunning use of [checks notes] “civility.”

TAPPER: Conservative economists at AEI say that when the Trump administration came up with your tariff rates, you mixed up import prices and retail prices and the entire computation is wrong

BROOKE ROLLINS: I have not read

TAPPER: I'd ask you to check it out
