I mean, I'm not saying the author is wrong, but they don't even point to a hot mic confession or a conservative e-mail that says "we need to scale back humanities at public universities, because it's teaching our kids the wrong things".

The idea that Republicans are specifically targeting liberal arts academics sounds truthy, and on brand for them, certainly. But it would be nice to see more evidence than angry assertion.
