I join the world in mourning the loss of Pope Francis, the people’s Pope, who reminded us that no matter our faith, we are all caretakers of creation. His legacy of compassion, inclusion, stewardship, and justice will continue to be a roadmap for our world.

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.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them

ICE says it’s just doing what it’s told. The president of El Salvador says he’s powerless. Trump officials are acting like they’re not responsible. But the monster’s already been unleashed. And when a modern-day Gestapo like this is allowed to thrive, where will it all end?

Trump’s Gestapo is here. It operates throughout the country. It can suddenly arrest anyone, with no crime alleged, and deport them for permanent imprisonment overseas. Will anyone stop this?
