More white supremacy.

Georgetown University graduate student detained by immigration authorities A lawyer for Badar Khan Suri, who was teaching on a student visa, said Thursday that he is grateful for the support he has received since his arrest.

Another innocent person has been detained by ICE - Badar Khan Suri, who has PhD in peace and conflict resolution. The US needs to put an end to this evil stupidity.

I just learned a new #psychology term that perfectly explains why #maga #republicans are still so #angry, and it has shaken my #leftist brain to its foundation. #extinctionburst #politics TikTok video by Ohh that's RICH

Learned a new phrase today that helped me understand both why #MAGA weirdos are so #angry and why it seems like there are more ring-wing zealots than ever (even though there aren't), while also giving me more conviction in the progressive direction.

Climate, energy agencies bring back probationary employees The moves were in response to recent court decisions, the administration said.

Not a complete reversal, but a big step in the right direction. Thank you to the judiciary members in this case who did their jobs according to the law.

Next time, swing voters who apparently control the world, please do some research. It's your civic duty.

If climate change is a religion and scientists are its high priests… where’s our tax exemption and housing allowance?

GREAT point.

That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history!

Arlington National Cemetery has removed information about prominent Black, Hispanic, and female service members, as well as topics such as the Civil War, from its website.

That is not okay. I'm glad she got the settlement, though.

The Democracy Index March 14, 2025

From the Contrarian: It’s important for us to recognize when Trump’s autocratic gambits fail, and remember that he is not invincible; in fact, far from it. So this week we highlight four major victories for democracy.

Chaos at the V.A.: Inside the DOGE Cuts Disrupting the Veterans Agency Clinical trials have been delayed, contracts canceled and support staff fired. With deeper cuts coming, some are warning of potential harms to veterans.

“Scientists are already considering moving trials to other institutions, which will mean veterans are no longer first in line for participation, and could cause millions of dollars in research funds to go to waste…”

Shocker.

This is the kind of Kickstarter I can really get behind.

Homeland Security budgets $200m for new border ad campaign In the ads, Kristi Noem praises President Trump and warns migrants in the US illegally that “we will find you.”

I'd like to bring this multimillion-dollar photo-op to the attention of Elon Musk and DOGE.

Instead of firing food inspectors and air traffic controllers and cancelling critical medical research at NIH, stop this outrageous waste of our people's tax dollars!
