Many of these orgs where reputable once-upon-a-time, but I can't think of any reputable long-standing conservative news sources or org that Trump has not rendered corrupt.https://twitter.com/MarkHoofnagle/status/1123366145850003456 …

The Exxon documents show, long before Trump, they've been laundering denialism for the oil and gas industry. They produce results for hire, a false patina of legitimacy for ideologic bullshit. They have been for at least the last 13 years I've been tracking their output.

I'm curious which of these was EVER reputable from a scientific standpoint. If they were ever reputable, if was decades ago. Heritage and AEI, for instance, have been promoting climate science denial at least 25 years and using bad science to counter environmentalism far longer.

Before that, several of these think thanks were in cahoots with tobacco companies. No, I'd say that scientifically, at least, they were never reputable. They were always there to oppose science they didn't like due to their ideology.
