Retire
As an @aaas.org Fellow I have been extremely disappointed at the lukewarm efforts of our scientific society to push back on all the excesses of the Trump administration. Dismantled training programs, destruction of public health research & other blows & we respond with fawning praise? Shame! 🧪 1/2
A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
#TN07 voters, U.S. citizens won't be safe anywhere with the regime's masked ICE thugs patrolling!
This isn't democracy, it's authoritarian rule similar to Germany in the 1930's. Complicit enabling regime members are responsible!
Elect democrat Aftyn Behn to protect your rights!

What can you do?
Speak out on social media, try to get on local news including TV and radio— you can do that in your personal capacity.
They did this by a series of Friday night news dumps. Which means Trump cares about publicity around this! /3
Fuck ICE and Fitchburg PD. We have laws in this state that say cops are not supposed to assist ICE. Nevermind that they did nothing to help that man during a medical event.

Trump…”How long is this going to take?’
Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.”
A 16yo American living in fear of the Trump regime’s ICE goons terrorizing brown people pleads for help.
A particularly ugly installment of Butt Cracks and Beer Bellies.
In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.
She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.
So I confronted him.
Hero’s of the day - In a small town of Beckley, WV, Kendra Sullivan staged a one-woman No Kings protest. She was confronted, had the police called on her, but stood her ground. She was physically threatened. Police came more than once and protected her right to protest. This is how we do it.
Mamdani nails Cuomo on being backed by Bill Ackman, which alone should be enough to disqualify Cuomo with anybody Black. Ackman is the DEI-hating, hyper-Zionist Twitter troll billionaire who bullied Claudine Gay out of the Harvard presidency on some BS when his own wife was accused of plagiarism.
we got a big boy
The remarkably swift passage of an Everett teen into the Trump administration’s deportation system underscores the reach and efficiency of the infrastructure that Immigration and Customs Enforcement has managed to build even in deep-blue Massachusetts. trib.al/Q3zUiKU
NEW: The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did.
We found more than 170 such incidents since the start of the second Trump administration. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes nearly 20 children, two of whom have cancer.
I called the mayor’s office and got his bored assistant who said she’d give him the message. Please, everyone call!
Trump’s ice goons pull guns on an unarmed guy on a bike in Rogers Park. Terrorizing neighborhoods
In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.
She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.
This is not about immigration enforcement.
It's about terrorizing Americans.
I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
Thank you all so much. 💐
Israeli soldiers were filmed detaining two Palestinian children in Hebron, in the occupied West Bank, while demanding to know their father’s whereabouts.
When a passerby intervened and urged their release because of their young age, a soldier replied, “I don’t care”.

I am cancelling our Disney+ subscription.
My kids aren’t going to like it and we may have nothing to do a few nights a week now but *actually talk to eachother* and *play board games* and shit offline wait actually this could work
When freedom is under fire you can count on me to ramble and mutter incoherently.
I remember standing on this platform, 40 years ago, reading a paperback of “On the Road” and thinking, God, this guy is so corny.
Can’t express in words how big this rally in Chicago is. The president’s fascist goon squad is not welcome here.
