The EPA needs your help. Apparently hr18@opm.gov is still in play. Do not fill this box to so the EPA can stop saying what they are doing.

Damn, this conclusion:

“We yet cling to the hope that it is not naïve to believe our good brethren in the Executive Branch perceive the rule of law as vital... This case presents their unique chance to vindicate that value and to summon the best that is within us while there is still time.”

Despicable!!!
They are saying that the person they are trying to deport from her local community is a flight risk.

It's always been obvious that this is about punishment and criminalization of dissent but this...makes it even more obvious.

The Department of Homeland Security argued that Rümeysa Öztürk posed a flight risk. The Louisiana immigration judge agreed and determined she should continue to be held.

Thank you.
I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

We are hearing news of a forthcoming Executive Order that would try to stop private US charitable organizations from supporting charitable causes overseas. Also that climate mitigation efforts will be targeted. DO NOT OBEY IN ADVANCE. #resist

Fulbright’s cancelled!
The grant cuts affect all of America. They affect economies in red states, and they affect everyone whose lives have been touched by cancer, Alzheimer’s or other diseases.
🚨 The NIH’s sweeping cuts of research grants are inflicting pain almost universally across the U.S., @raelnb.bsky.social and I found.

At least 43% of organizations that had grants terminated are public universities.

About 40% are in states Trump won in November.

I haven't met many 20 year old men who are even close to wired to handle that well.

I haven't met any mothers who are wired to handle that well either.

I wish them a very happy, complete, and remunerative justice.
