...this time to head the USDA:
'The United States Department of Agriculture’s research division studies
matters such as nutrition, food distribution, and climate change, and,
according to the 2008 Farm Bill, is meant to be helmed by a “chief
scientist” chosen “from among distinguished scientists.”
Naturally, President Trump is expected to appoint a man with literally
no science education, much less a career in the discipline, to head the
USDA’s research section, a position officially known as the department’s
“undersecretary.” Instead, Trump’s projected pick, Sam Clovis, is a
former tenured business and public policy professor at Morning Side
college who has hardly even published any work in his field, and has
never taken a graduate-level science class, according to a ProPublica
article that came out Friday evening. Obviously Clovis is also very
skeptical about global warming—after all, he studies business, not science.'
