It might be because I block a bunch of stuff, but is all I see:

The United States is rapidly shedding historians—and the national security implications are dire. Even as it grapples with challenges and conflicts rooted in complicated regional histories, the United States continues a decade-and-a-half-long path of defunding history departments and deprioritizing history education. This threatens to produce a generation of policymakers and advisors whose view of the world is increasingly, and dangerously, shallow.

After that, it is just the author credit and end-page layout (and side bars and the like).

It might be your blocker, I'm not sure. Some testing on my local indicates that the ?tpcc=recirc_latest062921 at the end of the URL makes the difference, maybe some kind of gift link? If you use or can use Firefox, you can also load the page, put it into reader mode, and then refresh, and you should be able to read it that way. None of the other tools I know of to share links like this seem to work unfortunately.
