Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —Arrested at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

We learned a lot over the past 80 years, only to find ourselves shifting hard into reverse. Remember: the rights that we take away from others are the rights we cede from ourselves.

Trump said again he’s open to sending U.S. citizens to a Salvadoran prison. There is no constitutional basis for this—such an act would be a direct violation of the Constitution.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

I have to prove that I have a Constitutional right to vote but I don’t have to prove I have a Constitutional right to own a gun - even one w/ the sole purpose of killing a human. This is crazy fucked up. I want to challenge the govt to prove that I DON’T have the right to vote, like they do w/ guns.

The IRS agreed to share legally protected taxpayer information with DHS and ICE. Federal law clearly protects taxpayer privacy. This agreement is illegal. This is an assault on every single taxpayer's rights and will destroy lives.

The business model of Meta, Amazon, X, and Google relies on selling targeted ad space at a premium based on the profile they've built on you. Your data is big tech's lifeblood, and there's an arms race to accumulate the most. Remember this when you hear about DOGE trying to access SSA or the IRS.

The whole concept of the American civil service is that the president CANNOT just fire whomever. It is the most basic principle of a functioning gov’t. The use of admin leave to “fire” and the fake, illegally-conducted RIFs are antithetical to a gov’t that serves the ppl. 1/4

This is the dumbest, most poorly informed, hyper-opinionated dipshit you know, but with more than half a century of being told that he's better and smarter than everyone else. That's it. He's had 4 extra years now to stew on his moronic misunderstanding of the world, and now there's no leash.
