Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

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.

Hmmm. I love across the street from a post office. Guess I need to start using it more before they shut it down.
1/5 Watched @hcrichardson.bsky.social & Sen. Angus King today. Sen. King spoke of writing your Reps. & Sen. How important it is, it does make a difference. Then saw this. A lot of screen shots but a good idea. Stick to issues effecting you or those you know. Be Specific.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

What’s up? Not the Dow. Down 5,000 points since January 20. That’s 12% in three months.

We’ve always been at war with Eastasia.
obscene lying from Stephen Miller on Fox News as he claims the economy was in "depression" thanks to Biden when Trump took office (the American economy was in fact the envy of the world three months ago ... )

Remember, if the prices are up today, don't worry.

It's not coming out of your pocket.

You just pay yesterday's prices and tell the store to bill Canada, Mexico, China, or Penguin Island because according to Glorious People's Leader Trump, the foreign countries pay the tariffs.

Doing taxes today and wondering why since the monies appropriated by congress are no longer being spent as intended which means TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION.

Golf before veterans. Or is it Saudis before Americans? Hard to say and doesn’t matter.

“Trump stock market rally is far outpacing past US presidents!” and “You can’t really watch the stock market" are the Republican "We've always been at war with Eastasia" "We've always been at war with Eurasia" doublethink slogans of our modern dystopia.

It seems Facebook disappeared the last five days of Heather Cox Richardsons posts. And now I am disappearing off Facebook.

What’s up with this one? Seriously. WTF.
Today, a reporter from the Russian state news agency TASS gained unauthorized access to the Oval Office. How does one gain unauthorized access to the Oval Office? Meanwhile, AP and Reuters were blocked.

Completely off of other social media today. Don’t feel the need to be so political over here so after the last few weeks not sure what to talk about. Haven’t posted about being sick yet. Got Influenza A at the end of January. Put me in the hospital, and am still recovering on the couch with oxygen.
