I did the math and even the most Republican heavy field is still 61.5% Democrat. I'd be curious to know what those numbers looked like 10 or 20 years ago. There's definitely political bias in the hiring process even in the legitimate departments. A common interview question in academia is how the applicant is advancing DIE in the field. That's going to filter out a lot of sane applicants.

Most libs become conservative when they get their first paycheck
Very stupid catchphrase. Millennial leftists are far more radicalized now than they were 20 years ago in high school.
Not when that paycheck comes from the government.
I wish.
