Didn’t have my phone with me but there were lots of fireflies in the yard this evening! So excited. We have seen so few before this.
They used to light up the dark when I was a kid in Tennessee.

Goodnight, Blue Sky friends ❤️

Trump is sending a Russian scientist who created a breakthrough cancer detection microscope back to Putin's Russia. She was a dissident who criticized Putin and now will be in danger.
“A groundbreaking microscope at Harvard Medical School could lead to breakthroughs in cancer detection... But the scientist who developed computer scripts to read its images and unlock its full potential has been in an immigration detention center for two months” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...
New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

Just intoning it over and over like a madman obsessive: If a principle or a right is going to protect YOU, then it must protect EVERYONE—in spirit, in letter, and in practice.

It's not like these SSNs were fraudulently obtained. These are legally assigned SSNs, identical to the ones that US citizens have. If they can cancel immigrants' SSNs, there's nothing stopping them from canceling citizens' SSNs.
