Staffers at the US National Institutes of Health published a letter of dissent, taking issue with what they see as the politicization of research and destruction of scientific progress under the Trump administration. They called it the Bethesda Declaration, for the location of the NIH.

1. Trump has publicly and privately fantasized about deploying the military on US soil against protesters for years. In LA, with little justification, he has made those dreams a reality, violating longstanding democratic norms. He has manufactured a crisis. Let's review the history. 🧵

Donald Trump’s deployment of the military in Los Angeles over the objection of California leaders is an abuse of power and a dangerous escalation. It’s what you would see in authoritarian states and it must stop. Americans have the right to speak out and peacefully protest.

This is from my neck of the woods: “Investigators say that Garzoli then sent an “alarming email” to the official in which he demanded the removal of the flags before the end of the school day on Thursday and said “he would have the District Administrator ‘executed’ if the flags remained.”

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Resistance to tyranny and kakistocracy is our patriotic duty, not resigning. It’s using our privilege to stand up for what’s right. Watch Miami weatherman John Morales use his stage to educate and warn about Trump and Republican attacks on science.
