To the editor: I learn this text with nice disappointment (“Eulogy for the CIA Factbook: The free commonplace for world information, lengthy an academic staple, is gone,” April 6). One other mental staple is gone.
On daily basis, we learn concerning the modifications to, or the dismantling of, packages on the Facilities for Illness Management and Prevention and the Division of Training, about assaults on our regulation corporations, our media and our universities. We’re enduring the expense of tariffs and the uncertainty of an surprising warfare.
In my opinion, I see this administration, systematically and what appears deliberately, making us unhealthy, unwealthy, unwise and unsafe.
I’m afraid that the defunding of the CIA World Factbook gained’t be the final assault on our mind or on our capacity to teach the world. And for what cause?
