And actions like this:

And the US's terrible track record in general - e.g. Qian Xuesen, Wen Ho Lee - have made me nervous.

I'm as patriotic as they come; you don't get recruited by the CIA 3x and work in public service if you're not.

So... if people are worried + feel unloved by this country ATM? Not w/out reason.

I’ve been carrying around my old passport since the first week Trump took office—that week a friends husband was brutalized for going to pharmacy without having proof of citizenship on him.

If you carry your passport, and ICE grabs you ... will you ever see your passport again?

ICE has become an out-of-control lawless agency.

We cannot assume good faith anymore. Protect yourself from the bad elements. Carry a copy. The passport # can be used to verify your authencity.

Scary times.
