"I saw to what extent the people among whom I lived could be trusted as good neighbors and friends; that their friendship was for summer weather only; that they did not greatly propose to do right; that they were a distinct race from me by their prejudices and superstitions."

This administration certainly likes to appoint communists to various positions of authority, doesn't it?
[This is only a valid snark if Ms Trotsky is in fact a communist.}
It could be worse, what if it was William S. Burroughs in charge?
I know nothing of her politics.
The Wikipedia article doesn't give much insight into Ms. Volkow. The Wiki article on NIDA is dense, in more ways than one. First page of Google News about NIDA has only stories about a missing teenager. Huhn, indeed.
I don't know her politics, but I know that she accepted a position where she is required by law to lie if the science doesn't turn out to match Congresses' preconceptions.
