Obama: "The rogue behavior of agents of the federal government is deeply concerning and dangerous ... the sort of behavior that we've seen in authoritarian countries and we've seen in dictatorships, but we have not seen in America."

Appreciate the talk about banning ICE masks in shutdown negotiations.
But the non-negotiable should be congressional oversight of ICE detention facilities. Full access, no appointments, no permission slips.
No compromise.

The text on the center flyer reads:
ICE goons:
You will face justice in this life and the next.
You will rot in jail, and burn in hell.
Resign. Repent. Repay.
The other fliers simply say ICE OUT with a flower.

I realize media doesnโt think itโs a big deal that Trump, Vance & Hegseth continue to give partisan political speeches to troops, evidenced by the fact that they are never asked about it nor are members of Congress, but it is one of the most dangerous things happening right now.

Let's be done with the "if there even *IS* an election" gotcha. We know. The thought has occurred to all of us. It's unhelpful. I'm going to continue behaving as if I'm not powerlessโas if totalitarianism isn't inevitable. Because it's not, and I'm not.

A black-and-white portrait photograph of pioneering nuclear physicist Fay Ajzenberg-Selove, taken in her later career years. She is seated in a cozy, book-lined study or office, surrounded by shelves of books and framed photos on the wall behind her. She has short, neatly styled graying hair and warm, intelligent eyes, wears large, round-framed glasses that accentuate her thoughtful gaze. She has a gentle, knowing smile and is dressed in a patterned blouse or dress with a polka-dot or textured dark fabric, a small brooch or pin on her collar, and a simple necklace. Her hands rest calmly in front of her as she sits slightly turned toward the camera, exuding quiet confidence, resilience, and intellectual depth. The setting highlights her lifelong dedication to science, from her groundbreaking work on light nuclei spectroscopy to her influential compilations of nuclear data, and her advocacy for women in physics despite facing significant gender barriers in academia. The image captures her as a trailblazing figure who received the National Medal of Science in 2007 and left an enduring legacy in #nuclearphysics.
Nuclear physicist Fay Ajzenberg-Selove was born #OTD in 1926. She authored decades of authoritative compilations on light nuclei energy levels (researchers' "nuclear bible"). Recipient, National Medal of Science (US 2007) for advancing nuclear #physics. Advocate for #WomenInScience.

Senior US health official Oz invited Epstein to Valentine's Day party, documents show
Mehmet Oz sent the invite almost a decade after Epstein's first sex crime charges became public.
Dr. Oz emailed an invite to a Valentine's Day party in 2016 to Jeffrey Epstein.
Oz appears several more times in the Epstein files, including an email sent from an account under his name to Epstein on Jan. 1, 2016, that has the subject line "Dr oz." The body of the message is completely redacted.

There is no significant voting by non-citizens. Therefore a new bundle of laws to stop that is dumb. Or worse. Itโs voter suppression in a pretty package. IF ID is required, there must be guarantees that support will be provided to those who lack ID. And make Election Day a holiday.
