Keep in mind that this is just the beginning. I wouldn't be surprised to see an "official" NIH page saying that vaccines cause autism next. We're far from the bottom. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

This is good news. But reporters, please stop just repeating that this task force has anything to do with stopping antisemitism. It is about closing universities and about fomenting antisemitism. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Four weeks ago, I taught undergrad students about interacting with police and ICE. danny.hellmo.space/posts/a-town... I’m upset that this is now useful information. American citizens should: 1) carry their passports 2) use them as a fucking shield for others #academicsky #highereducation

Yes. The situation at NIH is worse than the public realizes. The #NIH is on track to be effectively ended as a funder of evidence-based research within a year. That is not an exaggeration. The firings and consolidation announced today will create a new, MUCH worse NIH. 1/

This arrest is the latest in an alarming pattern to stifle civil liberties. The Trump admin is targeting students with legal status and ripping people out of their communities without due process. This is an attack on our Constitution and basic freedoms — and we will push back.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
