ICE is rounding up dissidents and threatening them with deportation — all because of their protected speech. But the First Amendment protects all of us.
Tell Congress: Defend our constitutional right to dissent.

Dissent Is Not Grounds For Deportation
The unconscionable, illegal arrests of Mahmoud Khalil, Rümeysa Öztürk, Badar Khan Suri, and other international scholars should alarm every one of us. Tell Congress to defend our right to free speech ...

The Houthis are on the side of justice. People guided by their moral conscience to take action to help 1.5 million people being starved. US terror bombings in Yemen lead to self-defense is an accurate headline. Curious what spin US corporate media puts on this.
The Houthis claim to have attacked the USS Harry Truman aircraft carrier again, launching drones, ballistic, and cruise missiles for the second time in 24 hours.

Less than a week ago, Trump said he "brought back free speech." Tell that to Mahmoud Khalil, currently in ICE detention.

Mapledust Lichen - Verseghya thysanophora, formerly in the genus Lecanora, is a common sterile sorediate crustose lichen in eastern North America. What at first look like pale green splotches on trees become breath-taking when viewed up-close.

Texas Shield Lichen - Canoparmelia texana. A more fitting name might be Crinkled Grayshield Lichen. This large, foliose species with an atranorin-gray cortex, maculae, soredia, and UV+ bright blue medulla (from divaricatic acid) is common throughout the southeastern US, now being found in Western PA

The Physcia stellaris/pumilior/aipolia group is challenging to distinguish. This lichen has a medulla that turns yellow when a drop of KOH is placed on them, and a thallus that turns bright green when hydrated, which should make them Physcia pumilior aka “Lesser Gray Legs”
