I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky

Racism is when you believe a white guy is innocent after a jury has concluded 34 times that he isn’t, and you immediately decide an immigrant is guilty when the immigrant hasn’t even had a chance to present their defense.

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

Van Hollen says that he asked the VP of El Salvador why his government continues to hold Abrego Garcia even though he’s not charged with any crime and there’s no evidence that he’s MS-13. “His answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT”

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was living in the U.S. legally. He has a young son. ICE sent him to a Salvadoran gulag, then admitted it was a mistake. In a 9-0 ruling, SCOTUS ordered his return. Now Trump and Bukele say they can’t do anything about it? Seriously? (1/2)

If Stephen Miller can lie about Abrego Garcia and his case on national TV, he can do it in federal court under oath. Judge Xinis should demand his appearance, question him under oath, then jail him for Contempt when he commits Perjury. This lawless administration has to be subjected to rule of law.

🧵 We must learn from history—or risk repeating it. During 1989–91, the U.S. experienced over 55,000 measles cases and around 120 child deaths—mostly among unvaccinated, uninsured preschoolers. This led to the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program, which provides free vaccines to eligible kids.

Steven Miller’s new theory, that a "saboteur," "Democrat" DOJ atty invented the idea that Abrego Garcia was mistakenly removed to CECOT—is false. The error was admitted, on 3/31, by Robert Cerna, an ICE acting field office director: 1/3 storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.
