This is sickening. UB scientist being held by ICE despite valid visa and no criminal history. Just for making a wrong turn.

Which means itβs now the US administrationβs position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that βwe need to rebuild trust in science,β because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.
