Trump will create manufacturing jobs

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt (because I don't think this is going to work out like you're saying) and say that tariffs on imports will drive an increase in manufacturing jobs. Well how long does it take for a new factory to translate from concept to production? The answer is years, so I guess we can anticipate this payoff starting in 2027? Meanwhile, all the legislation actually passed under Biden to incentivize American manufacturing jobs, he's actively undermining, e.g. the CHIPS Act and IRA.

This is why releasing sterilized individuals into wild populations seems so promising, it's species-specific

This isn't really true though, especially since the mosquitoes in question aren't even native to the Americas, and whole ecosystems evolved without them. I have also read multiple things about how mosquitoes don't actually make up much of the diet of these animals anyway, because they are tiny and provide almost no nutrients, these animals prefer most other insects before eating a mosquito
