in fact you do not have to show your ID when you board a train in the united states, you only need to show your ticket (which can be purchased without an ID)

The purpose is to disincentivize investments in vaccine development

How much did the government spend on this horrible fucking ad?

You still have time to apply if you are interested in joining my lab!!

Martinez took five bullets from a CBP agent, and DHS went into overdrive claiming she was an armed threat to the agents who were merely defending themselves. Sound familiar?

"Morale is plummeting among ICE agents over long hours, quotas and public hatred: reports"

Verge headline: It doesn't matter if Alex Pretty had a gun by Sarah Jeong Photo by Steven Garcia depicts several masked law enforcement agents soaked in red light at night

"Why is it so normal for law enforcement — those who are supposed to be keepers of law and order — to kill Americans? And why is the only question at the end of the day how much their victims deserved to die?"

CNN: DHS officials have come to FEMA staff and told them to limit the use of the word ice…they are worried that by posting something like, watch out for the ice, that it's going to become a meme….

I think the lesson for the Trump administration is they did not have to change the law, or win a court case, to get universities to do what they wanted.

At the same time, ICE is telling its employees and prosecutors that observers are “domestic terrorists” and agents have been threatening and even arresting such observers. They also then use software that provides the name and addresses of observers, letting them know the government knows their identity and address. Such violations of privacy data are only supposed to occur in the context of a criminal investigation. There have been multiple reports that ICE officials will drive past observers homes to intimidate them.

Its...not an unreasonable question to ask who is running a country of 30 million people after you kidnapped its President. Its not a gotcha or optics, its pretty important.
