WTF? ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security.

This is one of those “support the troops” moments. It’s not about bumper stickers and flyovers at NFL games. It’s about not sending young men and women into an illegitimate war. Speak up, rise up if you can.

2017: We predicted where climate change is sending 457 species of parasites - ticks, mites, fleas, tapeworms, you name it - and discovered that while many tropical parasites are shifting into temperate places (like... here), one in ten parasites could also go extinct

Parasite biodiversity faces extinction and redistribution in a changing climate
Parasites face range loss and shifts under climate change, with likely parasite extinction rates of up to one in three species.

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

Just want to remind the US Congress, because some of its members have clearly forgotten this, that the President of the United States cannot just go to war with another country because he feels like it. There is very definitely something in the Constitution about this (have a look: I checked).

Scripture says you can’t love God and hate other people.

You can’t love God and abuse the immigrant.

You can’t love God and bully the outcast.

You can’t love God and oppress the poor.

In the face of a neighbor, we glimpse the face of God.

If you're doing it right, being annoying can be a powerful form of resistance. There's nothing that says you can't enjoy the hell out of yourself while you're resisting.

In fact, and take my word for it...if you do...you'll resist a lot more than you have been.

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

Generating a reflection requires a soul.
This is a photo from the Vanity Fair article. Notice how they have to arrange it so Stephen Miller is on the end, so it isn’t obvious that there is no reflection of him on the mirrored table.🧛
