The difference is we hate all the other ones, too.

A 19-year-old US citizen from Albuquerque visiting friends in Tucson is picked up by ICE and locked away for 10 days because ICE agents are convinced he's not a US citizen... because his skin is the wrong color, apparently. No International border was crossed or approached at any point.

Incredibly relieved to see confirmation that Kilmar is alive. Now we need to bring him home.
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

False statements made by Columbia administrators who are colluding with Trump are used to arrest a star philosophy department student. More evidence of the deep rot inside the Columbia administration that badly needs to be rooted out.
The State Department Relied on Columbia University’s Mischaracterization of Protests to Arrest Mohsen Mahdawi
Columbia University refused to retract its statement calling pro-Palestine protests “intimidation.” Now, the Trump administration is using it against Mohsen Mahdawi.

Evolution works! How about that? Very cool demo, but it makes you wonder that if it only takes 11 days to overcome 1000x a killing dose of antibiotics, why are we feeding so many antibiotics to livestock as a routine part of their feed?
In 2016, the Kishony Lab at Harvard Medical School put together this demonstration of acquired antibiotic resistance in E. coli bacteria, creating a mega-Petri dish (2' x 4') with a stepped gradient of antibiotic.
Seeing the mutants emerge & spread is an elegant demo of evolutionary change.

An extraordinary separate dissent from Justice Jackson accuses the majority of trying to pass off its dirty work under the cover of the shadow docket and explicitly invokes Korematsu, the Japanese internment case. Wow. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...
