Jesus. I fact-checked this to see if it was true, and the reality is even worse(!). The Geiers couldn’t get IRB approval for their “experiments,” so they made up their own ethics review board with members of their family and granted themselves permission(!!).

🧵NEW: The House GOP's reconciliation package would DRAMATICALLY reshape immigration via fees, and as noted below, undermine judges' contempt powers.
