Again, the fascism is already upon us.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

NEW: Just a few generations ago, Boston Harbor was known as the dirtiest harbor in the nation. Now, we swim and fish in it.

The #EPA was key to that cleanup— a reminder of what the agency can accomplish when it's well-funded and politically powerful.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

1/🧵 Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at strikingly similar rates (84% liberal, 86% centrist, 82% conservative). This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.

Did you know that Donald Trump asked to play the President in SharkNado 3, but was told they cast Mark Cuban but he could be the VP? He flew into a fit of rage and soon after announced he was running for President for real.

I’m fully vaccinated against measles. What should I know?
Can I transmit the virus? Does vaccine protection wane? Does my child get antibodies?

You do NOT have to speak to ICE without a JUDICIAL warrant. If they attempt to enter your home or your workplace, ask for a warrant. Sometimes they will try to use other, non qualifying paperwork. They need a warrant.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Every night as my anxiety increased (post-2021-freeze induced) I added another string of Christmas lights - like that was going to ward off rolling blackouts. (Wait, maybe it did?! 😂) Now my jalapeños have crispy cooked leaves and the papaya is trying to bloom 🌸🔥

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford Medicine have devised an influenza vaccine that prompts immunity to ALL four major flu subtypes AND shows potential against bird flu, indicating a significant advancement in flu prevention and a potential increase in vaccine efficacy.
